A New Theme for February!Here we are, already in the first week of February and it seems like only yesterday we were enjoying some Christmas cheer at Universal! I’m always asked to give my top 5 of this or that, so I thought I’d devote my February blogs to some top five lists. Today, we will start with My Top Five Tips for Universal Orlando My #5 best tip is always get a Park to Park ticket.
Why? Because you can’t ride the Hogwart’s Express without it! Since its a different experience in both directions, you really want to experience it both ways. You say you probably won’t want to ride it? Are you sure? I can’t tell you the number of people that I’ve heard say that and then realize that the part of Harry Potter they really wanted to see was in the ‘other’ park and they didn’t want to wait until the next day. Don’t believe me? There is a ticket office outside both train stations and all they do is add the Park to Park option on tickets for people wanting to ride the train! Save yourself some time and get it before you leave home. Trust me. This isn’t worth saving the extra few dollars on.

Trains, Plains, and ... Boats?Getting from your resort to the parks is a breeze at Universal. Their motto has always been you are never more than five minutes away from the fun when you stay on property, However, with the new Endless Summer Resorts --that changed to you are only minutes away from the fun. Because, the ride from Endless summer can be a whopping 7 minutes at times!
Seriously , you are staying IN the fun! My first trip to Universal was only one day! I thought I had seen it all! Boy was I wrong! I have lost count of the number of times I have been since then and each trip is a minimum of four days, usually a full week, and I still haven’t seen it all! If you are a Harry Potter fan, I say you need at least three days. One day devoted to each Harry Potter world, Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade, and one day devoted to the other areas of the two parks. (With, of course the ride between the parks on the Hogwarts Express in each direction - because the ride is different in each direction!) This is a minimum! |
