Is Ratatouille ride for kids?

Remy's Ratatouille Adventure is the first all-new major attraction at EPCOT in more than a decade and the first in World Showcase since 1988. It's also a family-friendly ride with no height requirement, appealing to EPCOT's youngest guests. That means it's pretty popular, and lines can get long.



Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure (located at EPCOT in Florida and Walt Disney Studios Park in Paris) is considered one of the most family-friendly attractions in the Disney portfolio. It has no height requirement, meaning infants, toddlers, and guests of all ages can ride together in the same vehicle. The experience is a "trackless" 4D adventure where you are "shrunk" to the size of a rat and scurried through Gusteau’s kitchen. While the ride features some mild 3D effects, heat from ovens, and a few sudden movements as you dodge giant mops, it is not "scary" in the traditional sense. However, very sensitive children might find the loud sounds or the feeling of being "chased" by Chef Skinner slightly intense. Overall, it is highly recommended for families because it allows everyone to stay together, and the whimsical, colorful visuals of the Pixar film are brought to life in a way that typically delights younger children rather than frightening them.
