Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover


Description from PassPorter's Walt Disney World Guidebook:

Take a grand tour of Tomorrowland on an elevated, automated people mover. The four-seat vehicles move sedately along a route that takes you through Space Mountain and past nearly every other attraction in Tomorrowland. Along the way you can look down upon Tomorrowland’s crowds and view a scale model of Progress City (formerly of Disneyland’s Carousel of Progress). It makes a great introduction to Tomorrowland. Outdoor, mostly covered queue. Must be ambulatory to ride. Name changed to add Peoplemover in summer 2010. Allie’s KidTip: “Look for the stars when you go through Space Mountain.”

What PassPorter Readers Think of Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover (84 comments):

A favorite for so many reasons. It's enjoyed by my whole family, the line is often short and always moves quickly, it's a relatively long and relaxing ride, it gives a great overview of Tomorrowland, and gives younger kids a chance to see Space Mountain without riding it. This is what we do during rider switch for Space Mountain and the boys are never bored while their sisters ride.

A great way to see the park from a new perspective. If you time it right, you can see inside space mountain with the lights on.

We love this ride. We go on it several times each vacation. It is a relaxing way to see Tommorowland. I love going through and seeing parts of different attractions from another viewpoint.
DisneyKimber gave this a rating of 10 on 06/30/2016 at 6:06:44 pm EDT

A definite must do...good, relaxing ride. Now...the real payoff is the model to your left in the first building you'll transit. Look up and read about the Progress City model and its relationship to EPCOT. Plus...find out the role that Walt had for the TTA in his original concept of what EPCOT would be.

A nice break to put your feet up and relax for about 10 minutes. Enjoyed by 9 yo to 75 year olds in our group.

An awesome way to relax your feet! Experience the sensation of a moving ride, along with the visual of a show attraction. Very cool ride!!

Fabulous ride! Rarely a long wait, mostly covered, calming breeze, and relaxing journey that lasts a good 10 minutes to clear your mind.
Grooviamommy gave this a rating of 8 on 06/17/2016 at 1:26:34 am EDT

Nothing too exciting but we ride this every time we go to the Magic Kingdom. There is almost never a wait, and it is a nice long ride that gives you a tour of tomorrow land and a chance to rest your feet. Also good for toddlers who are in need of a nap.

LOVE!! We probably ride this more than any other ride in the MK. Sounds weird but my entire family loves it. Almost no lines here and you get to sit back and relax for 12 minutes.

I've always loved this ride! There's rarely a wait, and it's a nice break on a busy day. On my first trip as a mom, I discovered a new appreciation for this attraction - it was a great place for my 18-month-old son to nurse and take a nap! The cast members allowed us to stay on the attraction for several cycles and slept soundly!

The Peoplemover is a nice way for all ages to see a glimpse of Space Mountain, Buzz's Space Ranger, and all of Tomorrowland. The ride is relaxing and the cars accommodate at least 4 people.

Good ride if you need a break from walking, and usually doesn't have a long line.
