DISNEY are charging £502-an-hour so fans can skip monster queues inside the parks - including for the new Star Wars ride where the wait time is up to three hours long.

While the tours are for up to ten people, you need to pay for a minimum of seven hours plus your park tickets.

The theme parks are a major draw for Brit tourists, but those who don’t go early or plan ahead face long queues for many of the most popular rides in parks like Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom and Epcot.

But the firm lays on private tours for those who can afford to pay through the nose to beat the crowds.

High-rollers can splash out for the official VIP parks tour, which start from $425 (£341) an hour and goes up to $625 (£502) an hour for one to ten guests.

For the minimum seven-hour experience, you would have to pay anywhere between $2,975 (£2,639) and $4,375 (£3,513).

Added to that are the park tickets, which costs around £100 per person.

reveals the tours offer “the ability to enjoy some of your favourite attractions efficiently” – or jump the queue in plain English.

Visitors can visit multiple parks in a day and are also told: “The team at Disney VIP Tour Services will plan the most efficient, enjoyable way for groups up to 10 Guests to see and do all that's on your list.

“Just tell your personal VIP Tour Guide what you'd like to see, and they'll customize your day to your desire!"

It adds: “After being picked up from your Central Florida accommodations in a private vehicle, experience unparalleled hospitality at one or more theme parks, ride your favourite attractions and watch magnificent parades, live shows and select night time spectaculars from special reserved viewing areas alongside a VIP Tour Guide.”

Visitors have been flocking to the new Star Wars area at Hollywood Studios to experience the Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run ride.

But guests have experienced wait times of more than three hours to get on the attraction thanks to its popularity.

In Disneyland Anaheim, the popularity of the new Star Wars attraction has meant that the rest of the theme park has become a "ghost town".

Disney fans previously revealed how they're able to get more Fast Passes by using a technique known as "pounding the app".

Sun Online Travel has contacted Disney for comment.
