Late afternoon arrival at HS. Advice please?!

[NicholeB630]

So based on our plan and having enough down time in the mornings and not to many late nights I have decided we will do Hollywood Studios later in the day. I want to plan on being there around 3. We will Fast Pass Toy story and Tower or Terror but I have NO idea what other one to FP that would be worth it as non of them to really seem to need it. We are not interested in Star wars things. My kids are 4 and 7 when we go. Also were going the beginning of Sept when crowds are low, we will go to HS on a most recommended park day. Will we still be able to enjoy it getting there that late in the day? We have ADR for Sci Fi at 6 I think.

Star Tours is one of our choices. Since your family is looking for something else possibly Little Mermaid or Frozen Sing Along. Both are entertaining.

We saw Little Mermaid and Frozen last time so I don't think we care to do those again so thats why its making it hard. I don't think the other ones are worth a FP I hate this tiering system. We want to do Beauty and the Beast for sure wish that was an option

have you ever done Star Tours? I know you say you are not fans, but it is one of my favorite rides! I'm a nostalgia type fan- not a super fan.

I agree with Mindeola. Unless someone in your party is prone to motion sickness, Star Tours is the best alternative. You do not have to be a Star Wars fan to enjoy the ride. It has humor and action. I usually go three or four times. One day when my wife was taking our daughter to BBB in the MK, my son chose to do Star Tours multiple times to try to catch all of the scenes. 2.5 hours of one TSMM ride and the rest of the time at Star Tours.

I guess I didn't realize it was an actual ride .. Hmm let me look on You tube at it Thanks

I agree that Star Tours is a must ride for my brother and I. We're the type of people to keep re-riding until we get all of the scenes. My brother knows more about the universe than I do (I have yet to see episode III all the way through). But I take enjoyment over all the different scenarios even if I can't name the places.

Definitely do Star Tours. With a FP, you can be in and out in 15 minutes, which frees up time for you to do something else (like Beauty and the Beast) without a FP.

Ok I think we will do this ...
11:00am - Sci Fi lunch
12 - 1 Star tours
Muppet 3D
1 - 2 Toy Story
2 - 3 Tower or Terror
3 - Beauty and the beast show
Then whatever else after. Not sure what we should do for dinner.

I'm not a huge fan of Stars Wars either, but the ride is a lot of fun and worth riding when you go to HS. I think it is a pretty good use of a third FP there.
