Best park for teenagers. It’s a bit different concept from Disney, however, both parks are like a dream for the kids. The lines are so big during the weekend and holidays it’s recommended to get express passes or plan your vacation in low season which is much better to enjoy all the attractions and have a better experience. Regular parking costs 26 dollars and VIP parking 40 dollars if you want save money just take the regular parking which will be fine anyways. My whole family loved the Harry Potter Experience and Rides. It’s just the best!!!!

We've visited Universal Orlando resort when my son was staying at Give Kids the World Village. I have to say that Universal beat Disney World hands down for taking care of my son. The staff was compassionate helpful and kind. The park itself is amazing loads of fun. Thank you Universal Orlando. You made our cancer Journey just a little bit better.
