# Remy's Ratatouille Adventure

Remy's Ratatouille Adventure, also known as Ratatouille: L'Aventure Totalement Toquée de Rémy (lit.‍, 'Remy's Totally Zany Adventure'), is a trackless dark ride located at Walt Disney Studios Park in France and Walt Disney World in Florida. The first ride opened at Walt Disney Studios Park on 21 June 2014 and the second opened in the France Pavilion in Epcot seven years later in 2021.
Remy's Ratatouille Adventure is set in the world of Pixar's Ratatouille, where guests encounter various characters from the film.
Disneyland Paris officially announced the attraction in March 2013.
In both versions, the ride's dialogue alternates between English and French.

## Summary

The attraction's exterior is that of Gusteau's restaurant, and the surrounding buildings of a Parisian plaza, with the queue set in an artist's loft leading to the rooftops of Paris, where guests are "shrunk" to the size of a rat.
After guests board their "ratmobiles" on the roof of Gusteau's restaurant, Remy and the spirit of Chef Auguste Gusteau are deciding which meal to prepare for them. After deciding on their famous ratatouille dish, Remy and the guests fall through a swinging roof glass-pane, landing on the restaurant kitchen floor. This starts a chase sequence with Remy leading the guests and other rats away from the cooks, passing through the walk-in freezer and under a hot oven.
Guests eventually end up in the dining area, attracting attention from customers and causing a riot. Chef Skinner tries to get rid of the rats and the guests, while Alfredo Linguini tries to help them escape into a nearby vent. The escape through the vent in the walls is almost wrecked by Skinner, who angrily attempts to grab the guests through the venting grids. In the end, they make it safely to Remy's kitchen, where the cooking of the ratatouille is ongoing.
The guests are bid farewell by Remy and the spirit of Gusteau, while the rat colony is feasting on Remy's cooking. In Paris, the attraction exits at the restaurant Bistro Chez Rémy, unlike at Epcot.
Patton Oswalt, Peter Sohn, Lou Romano, and Brad Garrett reprise their voice roles from the original film as Remy, Emile, Linguini and Gusteau, respectively.

## Production
### History
#### Walt Disney Studios

In 2008, rumors began online that Disneyland Paris planned to construct a Ratatouille-themed ride in Toon Studios for the park's 20th anniversary. Following the initial rumors, articles on the Internet surfaced concept paintings, ride blueprints, and images of the first phases of construction, confirming that there would be such an attraction. Construction of the attraction officially began in 2012, under the name "Ratatouille: Désastre en Cuisine," or "Ratatouille Kitchen Calamity". The attraction was formally announced in March 2013 at the Euro Disney S.C.A. annual shareholders meeting as "Ratatouille: L'Aventure Totalement Toquée de Rémy" with the opening date set for Summer 2014. Construction for the attraction was completed in June 2014 with an estimated budget of US$150-240 million. On 21 June 2014, the attraction was officially inaugurated by then-president and CEO of The Walt Disney Company, Robert Iger. The attraction fully opened to the public on 10 July 2014.
On 27 August 2021, following Disneyland Paris' reopening, Walt Disney Studios Park announced that the attraction was set to become part of the Worlds of Pixar area.

#### Walt Disney World

On 15 July 2017, Disney Parks announced during a D23 Expo presentation that a duplicate of the ride would come to Epcot's France Pavilion at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida in 2020. Construction began in November of the same year with land clearing. After construction delays and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the attraction opened on 1 October 2021, on the 50th anniversary of the Walt Disney World Resort and the 39th anniversary of Epcot, along with a new restaurant, La Crêperie de Paris, located nearby the attraction.

### Ride technology

The attraction uses LPS trackless ride technology, similar to Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway and Mystic Manor. The ride uses rat-shaped vehicles to automatically slide across the ground with no track. It also contains 2D dome segments of the ride that the vehicles ride into. Different scent effects are employed in each room of the ride.
