Islands of Adventure

Amo estos parques de Universal… Los juegos son lo mas…
En Islands of Adventure hay varios juegos copados… Transformes, El hombre araña, juegos de agua copados para todas las edades, juegos para los mas peques y el mejor para mi… Harry potter!!! realidad virtual! Vale la pena hacer los minutos de cola que se hacen, como esta todo hiper ambientado, te sentis adentro del castillo de howgarts… Me impresione, emocione, todo junto! y el juego!?? Lo mejor… vas volando dentro de la pelicula! es GENIAL!!! lo recomiendo…
hay varias cosas para hacer también como escuchar el coro de Howgarts con los sapos cantores! jaja es buenisimo!!! Este juego lo repeti 4 veces y lo haria muchisimas mas! Si no tenes vertigo o estando ahi lo perdes es 100% recomendable.
Consejos: vayan temprano al parque… recorran de atrás para adelante, todo el mundo se agolpa en los primeros juegos. de la emoción, y luego van descendiendo.
Agarren el mapa en español y en ingles (en este último están los horarios de los shows!) aunque todo no se puede en un día… yo hice todos los juegos menos los shows!
Recuerden que en los juegos de agua o algunos otros no podes ingresar con mochillas, ni bolso, aquellos que no puedas te avisan y debes dejar las cosas en casilleros, los cuales NO SON GRATIS!.. si mal no recuerdo eran 8 dolares por 75 min o algo así… lo bueno es q poder pasar la tarjeta de debito o credito!!!

This was an enjoyable vacation with the family. Their was quite a bit to do, this coming from a guy that is not much of a person that goes on the rides at amusement parks. One big reason it was great is that I was with a good part of my family out here for vacation even though we did split our group up in the begining. The adults all with one another, than the teens, and finally pre-​adults.
I was actually with each group through out the day hanging around with them looking at the different things they had to offer. Especially for the butter beer from Hogwarts.
I have to say Harry Potter Land was amazing when we came out here, and the family were all together since we all got the same ticket time to be entering into that section of the park. It was a smart idea they had in having entry times so that section of the park would not be overcrowed with guest.
Other than Harry Potter Land I enjoyed myself with some of the side shows they had at the park.
This park is meant for family fun, but to me it targets more of the teen, and up group.

The capstone is the Harry Potter section — and lots of people have written about it. Yet… there are several different theme areas — with Kong scheduled to open soon. The Superman ride was a top notch VR ride. Jurassic Park has a number of hands on stuff for those wanting interactive experiences. The water ride in Jurassic Park is great for cooling off in the heat — and has some fun surprises. Lots of stuff for small kids as well between Dr. Seuss and Toon Lagoon. Unlike Disney, which is set for the «small children» — this allows a mix for the 6-​year old and the 16-​year old alike.
Plan for a whole day. We spent 4 hours in the Harry Potter section; then 6 between the other areas. Lines were longgg in Harry Potter — sometimes over an hour. Didn’t have more than a 30 minute wait anyplace else. Lots of varied food choices. Goes in a big circle — so you can do like we did — start in Harry Potter — and circle around and end there after seeing everything else.

I have been coming to this park since I was a child and I still enjoy visiting. There are options for the whole family with Seuss landing for children and options like Marvel Super Hero Island and Hogsmeade for adults and children alike. Personally, my favorite is Hogsmeade, its one of the reasons I still go to Islands of Adventure (Universal Studios is my favorite).
They also have some fun shows. The Eighth Voyage of Sinbad has been around forever but it still a fun family show. I last saw it during my most recent visit a month and a half ago and while it had some awkward jokes (including one about Lady GaGa that didn’t make sense), it was still pretty good.

Yesssss get me to an Adventure Park and look out! I might push the little kids out the way. Hahaha I love the water ride’s as well The Popeyes Bluto. which is such a cool wet. Did l say wet yes you will get that but we had our rain gear ready. Only because you never know when its going to rain at these theme parks. So best to be prepared. I love the way it spins you around and you’re in your raft with others so you can see everyone expressions and how wet they would get. Too cool. and let’s not forget Jurassic park water ride. I had to get on that one twice. Lovee the Dinosaur thing and down you go! We had the best time and so enjoyed our express pass. When the heat is on the last thing you want to do is stand in hour long rides. I highly recommend it. It’s an extra cost but so worth it.

Without Hogsmeade, there is nothing really special about Universal Islands of Adventure. It pains me to say that because we paid steep prices to visit! It really isn’t much different than a Six Flags. Overpriced everything, sweaty & grumpy people everywhere… And don’t even get me started on their scam of making you buy a park-​to-​park pass to visit all the Harry Potter attractions. Unfortunately, it just wasn’t in my budget to do so… I had to choose one park. In Hogsmeade, the Flight of the Hypogriff was painful and extremely short and the Dragon roller coaster made me so nauseous and roller coasters never do that to me! However, the ride «Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey» was incredible. Even waiting in line is awesome as it is indoors, air-​conditioned, and there is a lot to see! Being a huge fan, it was worth the ticket price just for that (and BUTTERBEER!) So because of the Forbidden Journey, it was not a waste of my time. Wish you could just buy a special ticket for all Harry Potter World attractions.

mmm no la pasé mal en este parque, pero tampoco la pasé bomba. Imposible disfrutarlo con esa cantidad de gente y colas interminable.
Consta de varios sectores: una parte orientada principalmente a los más pequeños, de Dr. Seuss; el sector de Harry Potter con un par de atracciones un poco más extremas; una parte de cartoons viejos (como Popeye) con varias tracciones de agua; un sector bastante grande de Marvel donde está la montaña rusa de Hulk; y una parte donde hay cosas de películas clásicas como Jurassic Park.
Los sectores más concurridos son obviamente Marvel y Harry Potter. Será que justo son dos cosas que me emocionan bastante poco, así que hacer colas de más de una hora en cada atracción por 1 minuto de algo que no me interesa, no garpa. La montaña rusa de Hulk está buena, pero son 2 horas de cola para 30 segundos de diversión. Lo mismo las atracciones de Harry Potter, están buenas, pero no valen la espera para una no-​fan como yo. Este parque no tiene FastPass como los parques de Disney (a menos que lo pagues, y es caro) y la cola de single riders no avanza mucho más rápido.
Lo bueno es que si sos amante de los clásicos ilustrados para niños la parte de Dr. Seuss es tu paraíso. La pasé re bien viajando en los carritos que recorren sus obras y mirando todos los libros en la tienda. Todo con la típica estética de Dr. Seuss. Hermosísimo.
El sector de dibujitos vintage es hermosa también. Pero preparate para mojarte; si el día está soleado no hay problema, pero sino vas a tener que pagar para meterte en un secador (ah, y además HACER COLA).
La verdad que en este parque fue más la espera que las atracciones en sí. No me divierte. Todas las cosas más populares y masivas están en el mismo parque y eso lo hace caótico. No la vas a pasar mal, pero en comparación con los demás, es un fastidio.

I’ve been to Islands of Adventure twice now, and both times have been marvelous. I will admit that I’m definitely a bigger fan of Universal Studios now that they have the Harry Potter themed areas, but gosh as a whole, the park is well worth a visit. The Dr. Seuss area is wonderful and the other areas are just plain enjoyable no matter your age. Sure I probably (predictably) love the Harry Potter themed area most, but there’s so much to do and see here that I can certainly see a return to this area in my future sometime.
We had good experiences with the shops, the attractions and the rides. Even the food was marvelous (given the location).

Islands of Adventure is definitely not as cool as Universal Studios, but still has some worthwhile rides/​attractions.
The Seuss Landing section is good for smaller children — especially those with weak stomachs. All the rides are very mild.
The Jurassic Park section is still pretty cool and might have almost become irrelevant if not for Jurassic World re-​popularizing it.
Toon Lagoon is a bit outdated but still fun. Most kids have no idea who Popeye, Woody Woodpecker or Prince Valiant are; people who are forty something plus, will feel a bit nostalgic.
Spiderman is probably my favorite ride at the park. If you’re a comic book fan you’ll love walking around Marvel Super Hero Island. And yes, I got my picture taken with Spiderman in case you’re wondering… Be warned: The Hulk Coaster is currently not in service. Back when Islands of Adventure opened I bet no one ever dreamed that Marvel would be owned by Disney.
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is without a doubt the most popular section (and the busiest/​most crowded) — the HP and the Forbidden Journey is pretty awesome! Your Express Passes will not work on this one, so be prepared to wait!
The two sassy and rude girls/​hostesses at the Mythos Restaurant should probably find another summer job (or day job).
If you have a park to park pass you can take the Hogwarts train from here to the Harry Potter Section of Universal Studios.

Wow, what a disappointing park. Coupled with the fact the Hulk coaster was closed until summer 2016, it’s really not meant for adults. Jurassic Park is completely underwhelming, Marvel area is a loud mess, and there’s really not much to ride.
Harry Potter probably deserves 5 stars on its own, but I can’t rate the park well for the horrible food, lack of quality rides, and poor overall planning in my opinion.

I had a 5 star experience at Universal Island of Adventure today. The boss booked my families stay at the Universal Cabana Bay resort (review to come later)
A benefit of staying at a Universal property is you get to hit the park at 7am, shuttle buses at the hotel were ready to go at 6am
Off we went in the dark, what a great move. We literally hit every ride in 3 hours
Harry Potter, walked right on… outstanding ride by the way. 3d cgi phenomenal
Spiderman was another favorite
Caramel apples and butter beer were our junk foods of choice. The early access made the experience special
Like all theme parks, be prepared to walk

Niveau thématisation ce parc est waouh! On passé d’une zone à l’autre des étoiles plein les yeux. Si vous aimez l’univers comics/​cartoon vous allez adorer.
Lors de ma première visite en 2000, j’étais clairement au paradis né sachant plus où donner de la tête.
Maintenant que je connais le parc par coeur pour moi son seul défaut c’est qu’il est un peu pauvre en attractions même si des nouvelles sont annoncées (déjà King Kong cette année).
Il a abrité la première zone Harry Potter qui fait un carton auprès des fans du sorcier, moi je peux juste vous dire que j’ai testé le ride une fois et que j’ai cru y rester!
J’adore la zone Toon Lagoon et ses attractions aquatiques, par contre prévoyez des habits de rechange car on ressort trempés surtout Popeyes mais que c’est fun.
La zone Jurassic Park est super également comme celle Marvel, bref ce parc est génial il mérite une visite si vous venez à Orlando.

Diferente dos parques de Walt Disney Resort, aqui não é a mágica quem comanda o espetáculo, e sim a diversão! Prepare-​se para encontrar atrações de tirar o fôlego para toda a família, desde os mais pequeninos até os adultos em busca de montanhas-​russas e corredeiras radicais. Vale muito a pena conhecer bem a parte da Marvel, onde encontramos os brinquedos de nossos super-​heróis favoritos e podemos até vivenciar diversos shows em meio aos caminhos do parque! Além disso, lá nos também encontramos a terra de Hogwarts e seus encantos, para quem é fã, será incrívelmente maravilhoso ver lojas de varinhas, roupas de quadribol e beber cerveja amanteigada! Um passeio que não se pode deixar de ser feito!!!

Universal Studios in Orlando is split into two different parks; Islands of Adventure and Universal Orlando. We purchased the park hopper option, as we knew we could do both parks in one day. Islands of Adventure contains the new Hogsmeade Harry Potter world, which was a lot of fun with buildings and scenes directly from the movie. It also has the Hogwarts Express train that heads over to the other park and lands you in Diagon Alley. Islands of Adventure had a lot of fun rides and decent food, our favorites were the Jurassic Park and Harry Potter areas. We came on a Monday, so it wasn’t nearly as packed as I’m sure it’d be on a weekend. We dined on a few turkey legs and got some BBQ for lunch, definitely a must see if you’re visiting Orlando, don’t forget your sunscreen!
Best,
Charlie

This park was definitely my favorite of the two when I consider it as a whole and not just the Harry Potter section.
I really enjoy the different little worlds here. Jurassic park world, the superhero section and of course Hogsmeade and the Hogwarts castle are amazing. There are some ‘worlds’ that are kind of out of date. The mythical area has some amazing architecture to the restaurants and walk through shows; however, there really aren’t any rides or much to see. The Dr. Seuss area is mostly for children but has some fun kiddie rides and is neat to walk through at night.
The big man made lake in the center of the resort offers some pretty views, especially if you eat at the Mythos restaurant which has outdoor seating overlooking the lake. If you are allergic to gluten like me there are some options for you. Mythos has some gf selections and it seems like the park in general is pushing towards being gluten aware. There is also a Starbucks in this park (coffee fixxxxx)
Overall I think there is lots to keep you busy here and a diversity of attractions if you have a family with kids of various ages. If you’re wanting to visit The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, be sure to get the park hopper passes so you can take the Hogwarts Express between Hogsmeade and Kings Cross.

I had fun at this park, but I think the Universal Studios park has much more options. If I had to pick only one I would pick Universal Studios. However Hogsmeade is awesome and so is the Forbidden Journey ride. The dueling dragons are fun, and generally there is never much of a line which is great since it is such a quick ride. Flight of the Hippogriff is fun, but I wouldn’t want to wait more than ten minutes for it. When I recently went The Hulk is gone, which is fine by me, that high speed beginning was not my favorite. The Jurassic Park water ride is great, but not when it is 45 degrees like it was on my last trip. The Dr Seuss area is really neat to look at, if I had more time I would totally check out some of those kids rides for the theming alone.
I think one of the great things about Islands of Adventure is Mythos Restaurant. You can relax from the hustle and bustle of the park and have a really great sit down meal. Of course you also can’t leave without getting some Butterbeer. Tip: if its cold go into the Three Broomsticks to get warm Butterbeer. Also if the Harry Potter gift shops are jam packed just go to the gift shop near the exit of Islands of Adventure, they sell a lot of the same things. Overall it is worth the two ticket pass to ride the Hogwarts Express and check out both sides of Harry Potter World, but the theme park neighbor remains my favorite.

Islands of Adventure is pretty lame right now, especially relative to the older park, Universal Studios, which is now way better. The Hulk is shut down till the summer, the King Kong area isn’t opening till the summer, Harry Potter World is now also in the other park, a slice of the park is somewhat silly and outdated (Sinbad, Poseidon, etc.), and a handful of attractions are water-​involving rides, which aren’t exactly the most appealing options when it’s not super hot out. That said, the Spider-​Man and Harry Potter rides are amazing. Just till the summer, Islands of Adventure is a bit of a dud.

Amazing! I wasn’t too excited about visiting Universal Studios after visiting Hollywood Studios. However, this place is amazing. We were familiar with almost every themed area in this park.
The Seuss Landing was amazing. We even did some of Seuss rides. Jurassic Park was a treat. We loved roaming the area there. Marvel Comic land was also exciting. What fun this park is.
Then, there was Hogsmeade and Harry Potter. This was the most fantastic theme area of the whole park. The crowds were thick in this part so that tells you others loved it too.
Islands of Adventure was like walking through comics and books in all phases of our lives.
It was wonderful.

I’m just going to duplicate my review that I posted for Universal because we lumped them both together into one fun day.
I love Universal and Islands of Adventure, and get this… I can’t ride hardly any of the rides. I get motion sick extremely easily and can barely handle anything they have to offer that is in motion. I did do Men in Black, and sure enough, when those cars started spinning, I had to close my eyes and take slow, deep breaths and leave my eyes closed for the rest of the ride. My husband had a blast, shooting at aliens. The 3D stuff makes me dizzy and nauseated, and no way no how can I get on roller coasters. I’ve been like that since I was a kid. But I do enjoy the theme park atmosphere immensely, and my husband took full advantage of the rides.
I was really disappointed that The Hulk coaster has been closed and dismantled for renovations. One of my favorite things used to be to stand under that initial drop and watch all the change, phones, and hats fall off of people as they went upside down on the loop.
When I used to live here I had a season pass, so I couldn’t remember the costs involved. We paid $ 20 to park and then an obscene amount of money, more than my car payment, for a two-​park all day one-​day pass with the express option. But it was a great time all around. We were there on a weekday which cut down on the amount of people to navigate. On a side note, someday I’m going to rent a stroller just so I can be like those soccer moms who run over people with theirs. I bet they drive their Escalade or minivan just like that too. #annoying #ohofcourseYOUhavetherightofway #ifyoudon’tlookmeintheeyewhileyourunmeoverthatmake­sitalright
They have done a fabulous job with the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. We enjoyed every aspect of that and had a surprisingly affordable and tasty lunch on the Islands of Adventure side. The area with all the Simpsons stuff is really funny and of course we bellied up to the bar and ordered some cold Duff’s for about 10 bucks apiece. It was nice to sit and relax by the water and enjoy a cold beer. The whole idea of Krustyland made me laugh and we got a kick out of that whole area.
It’s too bad the Jurassic Park area is geared mainly toward kids only. That ride that looks like a swing that goes over the top of the «jungle» looks pretty cool, but kids only. I mean I couldn’t ride it, but I would think adults would like that one too.
Next time we go we’ll stay on property and take advantage of some discounts. It was really fun to go back and see how things have changed. I always enjoy these 2 parks.

I came here in January and purposely got the park to park because I wanted to do all the HP attractions. I was super excited for Islands of Adventure, thinking they had more roller coasters. Meh. Nope.
Hogsmeade and Hogwarts are all great fun for any HP fan. The Duelling Dragons and Forbidden Journey are some of the best rides.
Outside of that, you enter Marvel area, which has Doctor Doom (which wasn’t as bad as I thought it’d be), Spiderman (very similar to the Transformers ride in Universal Studios), and oh hey, Hulk Ride … wait nope, it’s UNDER CONSTRUCTION. With no warnings on their webpage prior to our arrival. Um THANKS GUYS.
Jurassic Park ride = wet wet wet but fun.
Other than that, everything else was really geared towards the younger crowd it felt like (Seuss World especially).
King Kong is being built as we speak.
We did this side in less than half a day (thankfully very few lines). So, it almost felt not worth the extra $$$ to do both parks but without it, you couldn’t have done the HP area, which is the best part of Islands. They really need to bulk up the Marvel side, they can do so much there!

Universal Studios Islands of Adventure is a haven for thrill seekers and Rollercoaster enthusiasts alike.
Apart from the wizarding world of Harry Potter, the Marvel Super hero island is by far my favourite place for big thrills. The Incredible Hulk coaster is one of the best rides that I had the pleasure of enjoying throughout my whole time in Florida! Dr Dooms Fear Fall is also an excellent ride along with the 3D extravaganza, Spider-​Man!
The Jurassic Park ride is a classic and is one not to be missed when in Jurassic World! The lost continent is also an excellent ‘land’ to explore.
You can spend days here! Literally 2 or 3 days to see everything!

We went on a winter day (and only to IOA) so the lines weren’t overall to long. Our maximum wait time was 20min.
First the positive: The wizarding world is simply awesome. I’m a big fan of the books and therefore I freaked out when I saw all the buildings and places. It really felt like stepping into the story in real life. In my opinion this is beat part of the park. The waiting time in the castle went by so fast due to all the great stuff you can see. The roller coasters are both great but I prefer the red one.
Fun were as all both water rides we attended. Jurrasic park won’t get you too wet but the big one on tooney island get you soaked.
The shows weren’t my favorite but this isn’t the focus of this park as far as I know.
The 3D Spiderman ride was okay but not the best of the park.
Here are the slight negative aspects: Most of the waiting areas inside are clearly to dark. When you walk around sometimes it is really hard to make out the way and I have a good vision normally. My husbands wears glases and something I had to lead him so he wont bump into something.
Second negativ point: The food. We ate at the three broomsticks as well as as sindbads island. The prices are very high (but you expect that from a theme park) but at least they could manage to make somethin even a bit tasty. The food was simply horrible! So bring your own sandwiches and don’t eat inside the park.

HARRY POTTER!
I mainly wanted to check out Island Of Adventure because we don’t have one here in LA. It turns out that its best to get both Island of Adventure and Universal Stuidos as you will probably sit on every single ride (minus the water rides) within 2 hrs!
Majority of the rides at Islands were water ride, which we didnt partake in because it was a cold orlando day. Harry Potter Land truly was pretty amazing of a view. Although I did start to feel hella sick after all the 3d rides they have going on at the same park.
yea. whatever, i’m old i know!

I spent a few days at the Universal parks in September. While I appreciate this park and what Universal does, I have to say, I didn’t really enjoy myself here too much.
The Harry Potter ride is cool but it moves you in so many directions that I got sick or dizzy on it. The Spiderman ride is cool, probably my favorite over here. The Jurassic Park ride was good for the scenic part but once it got to the «haywire» part, it was a bit cheesy. Thankfully, all I wanted to do is get wet and that it provided.
The Hogsmeade themed area was cool but the locker area for the dueling dragons section is too small where you could barely move in the crowd.
The Dudly Do Right flume ride is not something people with long legs like myself can fit in. The problem is this ride has dividers between seats and you have to fit your legs under the divider and around the person in front of you. So if you are 6’5″ and mostly legs, you will not be able to get in this ride. These boats could be configured a bit better.
Foodwise, there wasn’t anything over here that I thought was worth it. Chicken was cold and even though restaurants are themedd well, it’s still mostly your typical amusement fast food. And be prepared to pay more in Harry Potter land than the rest of the park.
And also be prepared to walk, and walk, and walk, and walk around the park. There’s no bridge or other way to cross from the comic strip area to Dr. Seuss land. It would be nice to have a bridge or boat or something to cross the lake.
But still, as Chad E says, this park is geared more toward kids and I am way beyond a kid so that’s probably why I enjoyed Universal Studios better.

No pierdan el tiempo en este parque, solo merece la pena el mundo de Harry Potter.
La montaña rusa de Hulk está cerrada, y la atracción de King Kong aún no abrió…

Islands of Adventure is the more active park of the two Universal Florida parks. During our 3 day visit to Universal we decided to come here first being that weather plays a bigger role here than Studios next door. Unfortunately it pretty much rained every afternoon while we were in Florida just some days worse than others, which is to be expected around the time of end of August. But its definitely a great time to go if you hate the crowds like me, as the kids are back in school and Halloween events hasn’t started yet to drive in more people. Also a lot of the thrill rides they offer free lockers nearby.
Definitely get here before the park opens at 9 as it will give you so much more time to explore since in the afternoon. Getting the Universal app for the wait times so you can plan even better in park. They also seem much more lenient in letting you go in with outside food pretty much everyday we brought in sandwiches bought from Walmart for lunch and ate dinner outside the park after closing. I think time of the year matters a lot more than time of the day to be honest and there are plenty trip planning websites out there that will give you a crowd calendar base on time of the year.
As for the actual rides I’ll list out what I got to experience on my one day here, since I covered Harry Potter in another review I’ll skip that.
Jurassic Park —
— Water Ride– Pretty calm water ride with the big drop at the end, since the boat is bigger here we didn’t really get wet so if you’re adverse to water I would go with this ride.
— Discovery Center — Cafeteria on the first floor with lots of seating and bit of fun psuedo science on the bottom floor. One of the great places to get out of rain during Florida’s frequent thunderstorms :)
— Camp Jurassic — Playground for kids, those with smaller kids can sit back and take a break watch the kids go crazy here
–Velociraptor Encounter — cool photo op, although bit of a wait. I still don’t know if there’s guy in the costume or its just advance animatronics. Very realistic :)
Toon Lagoon —
— Dudly Do Right Ripsaw Falls — Its a great log ride but the wait time does get pretty long, I think even longer than Harry Potter at times since now that Diagon Alley opened. Definitely recommended as one of the rides you come visit in morning
— Bilge Rat-​Barges — After visiting this attraction and another round barge ride in Bushe Gardens, definitely didn’t enjoy as much as the log rides as there’s not much of a thrill but you just get wet more not due to the splash but mostly the water coming down from the top. I also didn’t realize the center has some covering to put your personal belongings so definitely utilize that. We rode this last before leaving the park and definitely very different experience than under a hot sun.
Marvel Super Hero land —
–Amazing Adventures of Spiderman — I think they updated the screen since I last visited 7 – 8 years ago, definitely one of the better indoor thrill rides that I would recommend, great effects and honestly better than Forbidden Journey I thought
— Hulk Coaster — Probably my favourite ride in the park especially since there was no wait we rode 3 times back to back. I really love the sudden acceleration they threw that in there. Quick and fast but does leave me bit woozy when i get off haha. Unfortunately I think its under maintenance now so won’t be open again till 2016.
— Storm-​force Acceleration — Quick little teacup ride, another good ride to kill the time to wait out the rain.
–Lost Continent–
— Mystic Fountain — Unlike the Goblin in Gringotts bank this is an actual person responding to kids questions, pretty fun to watch for a while and to see him start gushing out water jets
— Poseidon Adventure — Indoor follow the guide room to room kind of attraction, a bit boring but at least will get you out of the rain. The entrance is really nicely decorated though but I think definitely needs an update. Guide was pretty entertaining however
— Sinbad Stunt Show — I was surprised to read lower reviews on Unilocal for this show. I thought it was kind of fun watching the actors with corny stunt actions haha. I guess I haven’t been to many shows if this could already entertain me so much.
I skipped over Dr. Seuss land as well as Dr. Doom’s ride unfortunately since we spent about almost an hour waiting out the rain in the afternoon. While Islands of Adventure has more thrill rides its also more weather dependent as they have to shut the rides down temporary when it rains. Definitely had a great time here though, some of the area like Lost Continent could definitely get an update. Other than Harry Potter which is an obvious choice I would recommend the Marvel land rides and the water rides at Toon Lagoon. Definitely doable with park to park in a day I think if you come during off season like we did. A full day here is definitely enough to cover most if not all of the attractions.

Mais um parque sensacional q podemos ir em Orlando. tem brinquedos fantásticos como a casa dos minions, transforme… a comida tb eh. espetacular…vale a pena visitar…

Da ich kein begeisterter Achterbahnfahrer bin, ist der Besuch hier für mich nicht unbedingt sein Geld wert gewesen. In ca. 2 Stunden waren wir durch den Park durch und haben all das gesehen was uns interessiert hat. Interessant finde ich aber das sich ein gut gemachter deutscher Freizeitpark wie z.B. der Heidepark Soltau hinter diesem Park in keinster Weise verstecken muß.

Der Park ist super und die 89 Dollar für den Fastpass lohnen absolut wenn man nur ein Tag dort istandere schreiben von 3 Std Wartezeit für Harry Potterwir standen 1 Std trotz Fastpass den wir hatten (der zählt dort nämlich nicht) und die Stunde war reinste VerschwendungHarry Potter lohnt sich nicht!!! Dafür sind wir über Hulk und allem anderen was man fahren konnten, bis zur Rockn Ride alles gefahren und dank der investierten 89 $ pro Nase konnten wir das ohne lange warten. Universal ist ein MUSS wenn man Orlando besucht

Der Park ist né Katastrophe. :-) 100 $ Eintritt. Dazu um die Wartezeiten zu halbieren noch mal 80 $. Diese Preise variieren im 15 min Rhythmus. Je nach Andrang. Alles geldmacherrei hier.
Das Ticket hilft aber nicht um in einzelne Themenbereiche wie z. B. Harry Potter zu kommen. Hier kommt es zu Wartezeiten von mehr als 3 Stunden! Nur um in den Themenbereich zu kommen. Da empfehle ich jedem eher in den Busch Gardens in Tampa zu gehen.

Die neue Harry Potter Atraktion ist der Hit. Muss man erlebt haben.

Island of Adventure ist der jüngste Spross von allen Themenparks und das merk man an jeder Ecke.
Eine Warnung vorweg:
Wenn Universal schreibt: ihr könntet nass werden in Ihren Fahrgeschäften, dann meinen die NASS bis auf die Unterhose und Socken. Daher sind Wechselkleidung und Handtücher im Spind pflicht. Gerade Elterns seien hier gewarnt: man sieht es den Wildwasserbahnen nicht an aber schaut mal dass Ihr keinen Ausgang in der Nähe der Eingänge findet. Das hat durchaus seinen Grund.
Alles im Allem wird der Park, wie alle im Laufe des Tages sehr voll. Gleichwohl fällt er mit seinen Attraktionen etwas aus dem gewohnten Rahmen, da Universal hier überall einen draufgesattelt hat.
Gutes Schuhwerk ist pflicht und ein Tag reicht gerade mal (ohne Shows) dazu aus alles zu sehen. Aber da muss mann schon stramm unterwegs sein.
Auch hier gilt vergesst nicht bei der Preiskalkulation die Parkgebühren, Essen und Getränke.

Génial vraiment différent des parcs européens

Vraiment surprenant ce parc! Je suis rester bouche b pour les attractions j’ai bien aimer le Spiderman qui donne une sérieuse dimension au niveau des sensation

Eine Besuch bei den Universal Studios ist ein absolutes muss in Orlando. Meiner Erfahrung nach reicht eine Ein-​Tages-​Karte für beide Parks. Zumindest wenn man nicht alles sehen will. Die Parks sind sehr großzügig und mit viel Liebe zum Detail angelegt. Sehenswert ist auf jeden Fall Krustyland (von den Simpsons), Jurassic Park und die Harry Potter-​Welt! Im Park gibt es diverse Achterbahnen und 4-​D Kinos. Achtung — man kann nass werden!
Am besten fährt Dienstag oder Mittwoch, denn da ist meist nicht viel los. Auf keinen Fall in den Ferien fahren! Parken kostet im übrigen 15 Dollar.

Un parc pour les tous petits. Magnifique décor et des gens très accueillant. A voir avec vos enfants.

Outro parque de perder o folego! O island of adventures, é um dos mais legais também em termos de montanha russa (perdendo só para o busch gardens na minha opniao).Nao existe uma alma viva no mundo que nao tenha ido na montanha russa DUELING DRAGONS e nao tenha sentido emoçao!
Ir na HULK é uma experiencia sem igual. Lmebro que como foi a minha primeira motanha russa, enfrentei uma fila enorme so para ir no primeiro lugar, e nao me arrependo nem um pouco! O mais elgal é quando vc ta na montanha russa, e enxerga o trilho dar uma volta, vc fica imaginando como é que aquele carro anquela velocidade vai fazer isso! hdausihda.
O carrinho do homem aranha 3d tambem é fantastico! Parece mesmo que voce está la, os jatinhos de agua que saem do carro fazem parecer que realmente tem alguem jogando agua em voce. Nao há palavras para descrever a aventura de uma animação 3D, só vendo mesmo para saber. O island of adventures, é mais do que uma parada obrigatoria, voce nao pode deixar de ir lá se voce estiver em orlando. e ainda aproveita para dar uma pssadinha no universal studios

Der neuere Nachbar der Universal Studios. Hier hat man sich auf Achterbahnen konzentriert. Die höllischen Rollercoaster findet man hier. Aber wer das nicht mag, ist hier fehl am Platz.
Dennoch haben die Leute von Universal ein paar Sachen für kleine Kinder eingebaut. Aber eher für amerikanische Kinder. Die Figuren die angesprochen werden, kennen deutsche Kinder eher nicht.

Se quiser diversão e adrenalina pura, este é o lugar ideal! O forte são as montanhas-​russas. sensacional! Ótimo para jovens, principalmente em grupos. Pena ser em dólar
Os atrativos imperdíveis são: a montanha-​russa do Hulk (só precisa de um pouco de paciência — a fila é sempre enorme, a não ser que você tenha o fast-​pass); o 3D do Homem Aranha (você tem que ajudar a destruir os inimigos com uma arminha. fui muito mal nesse feitio, mas a diversão foi a mesma!); o brinquedo do Jurassic Park (é daqueles brinquedos em que você fica num barco na água, vai passeando e vendo os dinossauros, dando a incrível sensação de estar no filme!). Para o do Jurassic Park esteja preparado para se molhar! Há uma queda incrível ao final do passeio!
