Episode Description

This episode of Ride Guide brings us to Tomorrowland, but not for that attraction (yet). We discuss Astro Orbiter, Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress, and Joe’s favorite - the Peoplemover! How can you reduce your wait times on these attractions, are they worth your time, and what tier rankings do Leslie and Joe give these attractions?
