Disneyland Paris has announced their upcoming ride based on the Pixar film “Ratatouille” will officially open this summer on July 10, 2014 at the Walt Disney Studios Park.

The centerpiece of a mini-land that includes a restaurant and shop, Ratatouille: L’Aventure Totalement Toquée de Rémy (or “Ratatouille: The Adventure” in English) will shrink guests down to the size of a rat, scurrying around a restaurant, under dining carts and through the kitchen by way of a high-tech trackless ride system.

The video below offers a first look inside, featuring Imagineer Tom Fitzgerald and Pixar’s Roger Gould.
