Universal Orlando Park-to-Park PROMO Tickets - USA / Canada Residents

Came back to universal with the kids. About 10 years since the last time. Overall I felt there were too many rides which were very outdated. So many roller coasters as well. Looked at the new park display and was shocked they were building multiple rollercoasters there as well. We stayed at the Loews sapphire which was lovely. The connection to universal was very easy. Just a shame universal are building a whole new park rather than investing some money to update the old rides.

This is the best of the two Universal Parks! It's spacious, has shade everywhere in the summer heat and has great rides for movie lovers. I'm going to compare it a lot to Islands of Adventure since my experience was very different in both parks Pros: -The ET ride is a classic and the only untouched classic in Universal Orlando. -The Space and Shade (Islands of Adventure is a nightmare in the summer) - The Merchandise stores are better than Islands of Adventure - There's more variety in food than Islands of Adventure - The smaller kids will definitely like the Dreamworks area comapred to Dr. Seuss area on Islands of Adventure - The Harry Potter area (Diagon Alley) is way bigger than Hogsmeade. There are more stores, spaces to sit, theming, shows and shade from the heat. - The Simpsons area has the biggest variety of food since it has a taco truck and a food court (don't forget Moe's bar). - Bourne's Stuntacular and the Horror Makeup shows are AMAZING (Islands of Adventure has zero shows). -There are classic characters everywhere (I saw the Scooby Doo gang, BeetleJuice, Marilyn Monroe, Betty Boop, The classic dancers in front of the cafe, The DreamWorks characters and more. Cons: - Theming is not better than Disney. A person that doesn't ride because of health or voluntary factors won't have that much to see here compared to Disney (Still better than Islands of Adventure by far). Diagon Alley, Dreamworks area for kids and the Simpsons have the best theming. If you're not a Potter fan or a kid well... - There are few places to sit to eat. One day the eating places were packed and you could only sit on the sidewalk outside to eat or walr around the whole park to find benches or tables outside of Dr. Seuss. -Some staff tried to police the Coca-Cola machines. You can get free water and ice there because of the incredible heat and I saw an employee deny access to someone that wanted to use the machine inside one of the eating areas. They would do better by refilling the ice constantly. This is all I remember now and this is the best Universal Orlando park by far and I gave it 4 stars only because the theming is pretty weak on Universal overall compared to Disney. I love the ET ride and will probably stop visiting the park if it's removed unless I become rich or something.

Went with my daughter for a birthday trip. She took me on every roller coaster we could find. Despite how busy it was, we were able to get on rides within a reasonable amount of time. The rides were fun and we felt safe. Many many food options. Fun for all
