Universal Orlando Resort: Fun Like Never Before
Visitors to Universal Studios Florida can let their imaginations run wild as they enter the fantastical world of today’s Hollywood hits. Waiting for your ticket to Hogwarts? There’s no need at Universal Studios, because guests can hop on the Hogwarts Express to other Universal Orlando Resort destinations, or experience the awe-inspiring Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts™. Other notable attractions include Despicable Me Minion Mayhem™ and Fast & Furious: Supercharged™.
One-of-a-kind exhilarating experiences can also be found at Universal’s Island of Adventure. While this theme park is known for its sweat-inducing, nail-biting rides like The Incredible Hulk Coaster™ and Dudley Do-Right’s Ripsaw Falls™, there are also several rides for the younger crowd, including the popular Dr. Suess-themed rides. Universal’s Volcano Bay is also waiting to wow guests with serpentine body slides, aqua coasters, and winding rivers. Guests can also rent a cabana with plush loungers and concierge service. Now that’s a great way to rest weary feet after a day of non-stop theme park action!
How to Avoid the Crowds at All Three Theme Parks
Universal Orlando Resort’s popularity can mean long lines that might transform an amazing visit into one that is memorable for all the wrong reasons. Visitors can expect crowd levels to be at their worst during school holidays and in the summer months, with September, October, and November being the best months to avoid long wait times. Another option is to purchase a Universal Express pass to check into a ride in advance and skip the line. Guests can also access a wait-time app and find park plans online with maps and suggested itineraries to make the most of their visit. Guests staying at one of the Universal Orlando hotels can also receive a Universal Express Unlimited pass which gives further priority status when waiting for rides at both Universal Studios Florida and Island of Adventure.
