I can’t answer for non-fans, but if you enjoy the books and (especially) the movies, then trust me when I tell you that the experience is absolutely worth it. There are levels upon levels of details to see, hidden corridors to explore, just so much to take in. I agree that if you look at just the price related only to Harry Potter then it seems expensive, but to me that’s backward. Buying a park to park ticket gets you into both Universal lands, with all that they have to offer. Getting to experience the world of Harry Potter is a total bonus!
Island of Adventure is better when it comes to rides hands down. Universal Studios is more lay back and chill. But I always love to do both parks, start off with IOA and then go to US to chill out.
We save up the entire year in order to be able to vacation in Orlando. This year it has been so much of a struggle that for the first time in a decade I question if it’s worth it.
If you’re getting whistled at; that means you’re handsome!😊 The 4 Park Magic Ticket was awesome this year. I think alot of families took advantage of this promotion. I did. Had the best time.
If I book the premier hotel with free unlimited express for 1 night only (July 1-2 )and plan to visit the park on July 2 , is the express still work after the check out time 11 AM ?
Hi, to confirm early park admission is included with all of our multi-day universal tickets for free! the concierge service is for families who need additional help 👍🏻
Thank you for mentioning the virtual queue🤯. If I purchased the early entry, do I still need to sign up for the virtual queue? Or will this guarantee my entry to the land at that time? I would think so since based on the calendar to purchase it there were some crossed off dates, but want to confirm 😬.
Walking to the Dolphin from the Reserve was tiring 😂 Walking to the Swan was fine though. As for the buses they use chartered buses and also the same buses Disney uses, just used for the Swan and Dolphin. However, in my past visits I remember actual Disney buses to the Swan and Dolphin.
You really need batman level prep to conquer disney. This is not a resort where you think you can stroll in whenever and do what you want to get done. Messing with genie plus and getting the rides you want at preferred times is like a riddler challenge from the batman arkham games. You need extensive knowledge of which rides to prioritize, which lightning lanes sell out fastest, and understanding of which ride systems that are prone to downtime. And not to mention individual lightning lanes and fitting in virtual queues where you have no control over when that is, which can interfere with your plans.
Your video is Awesome quality! Curious what kind of camera you shot this with? Trying to decide which camera to bring to the parks. I’m not a ride person, so I’ll be having fun capturing photos and videos.
Great review, thank you! Really useful as I am planning two days there and struggle to make a choice. For now it is Studios and IOA in day one and Hollywood and Animal Kingdom day two...
Clickbait, why does the title say WORST rides not overhyped?! LOL! Jimmy Fallon is not #1 worst or over hyped, its a great ride and VERY well done for those who like the motion simulated rides! Men is Black is the worst ride! Minions is motion simulated, but it sicks because when you're not in the very first row, it doesn't even feel like you're IN the ride. That's the difference with the Jimmy Fallon ride. So which is it? Worst or overhyped?!
These are great points but to be fair I guess both are subjective based on our own personal experiences! But I do appreciate you taking the time to watch out channel!
Polynesian was the worst Deluxe we have stayed in and the only one we haven’t stayed in is Riviera. It was the absolute worst experience in all areas except O’Hana for breakfast. Everything else was horrible. Favorites are Beach Club, Grand Floridian, and AKL.
I just rode the Hulk yesterday and it would be a great ride if it wasn't so rocky. It was miserable through out the whole ride. I was in the very middle so that's probably why it wasn't smooth but it was not enjoyable at all. I want to do it again in the very front and see if it's any different.
Jimmy Fallon Race Thru New York and Simpsons are terrible!! We were just there mid May and I had a gravol (Dramamine) every day about half an hour before we hit the parks and I was surprised at how much it helped!
