Share in the comments below! Just wondering if it makes more sense to buy a discounted ticket and upgrade or just buy the AP or does it cost the same either way? Thank you! If we purchase a 4 day, park to park ticket from UT, can we upgrade it to a premier AP I'm assuming at Park guest relations? Yes, you can upgrade to an AP at Guest Relations! At this time, all of Undercover Tourist's tickets are electronic rather than physical.
Hi can you tell me the difference between a park-to-park ticket and a park-to-park ticket Dated? When I read the description of both I do not see any difference. If you buy a 4 day park 2 park hooper ticket do you have the option of picking any 2 of the 3 parks to go to for each day.
Hope this helps - let us know if you have any additional questions! You sure can! You may see an option to do so in My Disney Experience; alternatively, you can give us a call at 1 if you purchased your ticket through us, or Disney directly at Am I able to upgrade my ticket to a park-to-park ticket?
You can do that at the gate, or, if you purchased through us, give us a call at 1 Have fun on the Hogwarts Express! I am traveling alone and I am planning to visit the Universal Studios next week. I have some questions in mind about my plans. I am a huge Harry Potter fan and I want to get as much as I can get from this trip. I don't know if I should get park-to-park tickets or base tickets. If I get the park-to-park tickets, am I allowed to use the Hogwarts Express each day without any additional cost?
Also if I get the park-to-park ticket, are these additional 3 days free promo tickets also be park-to-park? I just want to be sure before making any certain plans. Thanks a lot! If you want to take the Hogwarts Express, you'll want the Park-to-Park ticket - that's the only way you'll get to ride, and it's included in the cost of a Park-to-Park ticket : Be sure to ride it both ways, as the experience is different each way!
If you purchased the promo ticket you mentioned, you'd essentially have a 5 day park-to-park ticket with park hopping benefits for all 5 days.
Hope this helps! Please let us know if we can help with any additional questions - have a great time! Me and my friends totally 6 people are planning to visit the park for two days. If you'd like to take the Hogwarts Express, you'll want 2-day park-to-park tickets. If taking the Hogwarts Express isn't a must, you can opt for one park per day a base ticket. You can see our full Park Plans for either option here to help you better envision your days! For 2 weeks from the Uk.
We want to do 2 or maybe 3 days. There are only 7 or 14 day passes in the Uk. Have you looked at our discount ticket options for Universal? We've got great savings for 2- and 3-day tickets! My kids are 9and 7. Should we just do a park a day? We have found it to be manageable with kiddos of the same age; we try to take advantage of the Hogwarts Express when we have Park-to-Park tickets to cut down on the walking a little : Plus, it's a fun way to extend the magic!
Can i travel to IOA for the first day and if could not complete by rides so i can come back the next day for the same ticket and same for the US? Yes, absolutely! With the base ticket, you just aren't permitted to park hop on the same day; if you stick to one park per day, you can plan your visits however you'd like!
Have fun! Hello, which ticket is only one day? I may be visiting Orlando but only have one day to visit We'd recommend a 1 day park-to-park ticket so that you and the fam can hop between the parks and take the Hogwarts Express!
You can find that ticket here. Have a great time! I can afford one day of express passes but am not sure which day to use them or which park. We will be there March 5th and 6th. This is our first visit to universal. Any input would be appreciated. We would suggest choosing your Express Pass day based on which attractions he may like.
The rides that offer Express can be found here if you'd like to look over the rides to choose from! You can also check out our YouTube channel to see ride videos if you need a closer look!
Both days are a level six in terms of crowds, but Islands of Adventure will be open an hour later on Friday, which would leave you with more ride time : Universal Studios Florida has the same operating hours both days. We hope this helps - have a great time! If I purchase 1 day park to park tickets now and plan my visit between March 15th and 18th, can I choose any of those particular dates when I arrive?
I don't want to get stuck with a bad weather day. As long as the ticket is valid for any of those dates which you can click on to expand to see dates valid , and you haven't already entered the park, you'll be good to go! I purchased the 3 day park to park tickets for Universal Orlando from here. Will I be able to upgrade my tickets to 4 day at the park if I decide to stay an extra day? What kind of price would I expect for the extra day?
Yes, you can update at any ticket booth before entering the main gate. The price will vary per day depending on the season. Hi ,we're planning on travelling in may with another family of 5 ,is it possible for us to split the cost of the park tickets between us ,so we can both save and benefit. So we can use alternative days to enter the parks ,Thanks for any help.
The tickets will be noted with names and you'll need to scan your fingerprint each time you enter the park to verify that the ticket belongs to the initial ticket holder for security purposes. So each park guest will need their own ticket. First time in Universal! Islands of Adventure is a theme park; Volcano Bay is Universal's water park. For the time you're visiting, since it will be busy, we'd definitely suggest Express Passes.
We'd suggest at least a 2 day park-to-park ticket so that you can take the Hogwarts Express between the parks. Hi, thanks for the detailed post. I actually planned for 3days to visit 3 parks. But on reading the post I am thinking to increase a day or two. I got three questions that I am looking help for. I sm planning with some of my friends in Florida, as my friend in Florida is booking the ticket, can I get the same discounted price?
As long as it's not a busy, the park can be done in a whole day! On a busy day, if you have Express Pass, we also think one park is do-able in a day as long as you get there as the park opens. The Florida Resident discount isn't available, unfortunately, but if your friend has an Annual Pass, a small discount off of multi-day theme park tickets is available at the front gate.
I'm going with my family for two days in Dec. I was planning to do a 2 day base ticket to save on cost. At the park will we have the option of upgrading only one of the days to park to park to be able to do the Hogwarts Express? Hey there- If we are looking to stay at Universal for 2 days, would you recommend getting one base ticket and one park hopper ticket so we would still get to go on the Hogwarts Express one day, without paying for 2 hopper tickets.
Thank you. If you have big Harry Potter fans, we'd definitely recommend a park-to-park ticket so that you're able to take the Hogwarts Express - check out the cost difference, though, because it may actually be more economical to do a 2 day park-to-park vs. Hi frog folks - you've been so helpful in our planning so far; thank you!
So, we have a 5-day park-to-park ticket that I could've sworn said we had 14 days to use, but now I'm seeing it says 7 days. Do you know if there is any way we can get an extension of a day or two? We're trying to plan a day off in the middle of our trip so we're not killing ourselves! We haven't heard of an extension with the use by dates, unfortunately. You can try hopping by Guest Relations to see if they have any options for you though! Are you Harry Potter fans?
If so, we'd recommend a 2 day park-to-park to be able to take the Hogwarts Express from one park to the other : We recommend 2 days to see both Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios Florida. We have park plans for either visit that you can find here to help you plan your days. Have a wonderful trip! We want a park to park pass so we can do the train and see all of the Harry Potter areas of both parks.
What is the best ticket? Will we have time to see it all in one day or should we think about doing 2? What all does the express pass include other than rides? We will be in Orlando for a wedding and have Oct 7 free and our plan is to go to Universal for the day We agree that a park-to-park ticket would be best to maximize your time!
If you can swing it, Express Pass would be another great way to make the very most of your day. We are thinking of staying at Cabana Bay which does not offer the express pass. How many days would you recommend to enjoy both parks? We love Harry Potter and rides :. Could we do that in one day even if we are staying at a Universal resort? We recommend at least two full days to enjoy both Universal parks — one park each day.
Just keep in mind that Universal Studios closes early for Halloween Horror Nights on select fall nights! Otherwise, three days would be plenty to fit everything in, especially if you stay the majority of the day.
Likewise, Galaxy's Edge at Hollywood Studios can be done in a day. We are doing Universal on dec 7 and 8. Unsure of staying on unverisal property. What is my best route for tickets? We want the hogwarts express so I know i should do 2 day park to park.
Wondering if I should do the express pass for one day? Best route for buying tickets? Yes, if you're wanting to take the Hogwarts Express from park to park, you'll definitely want a park to park ticket. Two days is a good amount to get to try to do and see everything. If it's going to be a busy day, we always recommend express passes because who doesn't love skipping the lines? You can see the crowd forecasts on our Crowd Calendar.
We have a hoppin' deal right now for a 2 day park to park ticket with an extra day FREE! You can see that deal, and all of our ticket offerings, here. My husband and I are traveling to Orlando on the 21st of September. We have a pretty full schedule and have been to Universal main before but it's been a few years.
He's not interested in buying park to park tickets and wants to take in volcano bay. Should we opt for a 3 day 3 park pass or buy tickets separately? There's soooo many choices. If he isn't interested in hopping from park to park, we'd stick with a base ticket, and three days sounds perfect.
You can see that ticket option here under "Special Offers - Universal Orlando" the very first section. We only have the day and want to go to both parks. Which ticket is the best for us to buy? It looks like Sept. We'd also suggest springing for Express Passes if you can to get the most rides in in your day. If we stay at a universal hotel, and have early admission with our universal tickets, does the early admission need to be on the same date as our hotel stay?
Does our early admission need to be on the same day as our stay at the universal hotel, or can we use it on a day after we leave? We are going to Orlando for 5 days. There are a ton of ticket options for Universal Orlando and we offer some terrific discounts.
You can see all of them here. Five days will give you a lot of time to experience the Universal parks! Here is a post on how Universal Express works. My son and i want to visit in September for 7 days. We are interested in unlimited entry at the following parks for 5days :-universal, aquatica and sea world.
Can you advise? Universal does things a little differently. If you're looking to hop back and forth between the parks, you'll want a park-to-park ticket; if you'd also like to head to the water park, Volcano Bay, you'll want to purchase a ticket that specifies entry in the name. The largest length of time Universal offers tickets for outside of an annual pass is 5 days.
Hi I was on Universals site and I am still confused between the 3park 4 day park to park ticket and the 3 park unlimited ticket. We are going for 4 days and I am guessing my kids will want to go to Volcano Bay in the morning one day then go to one of the other parks and more than likely will want to ride the train to the other park. So which ticket should I get? If you're looking to be able to visit more than one park each day Volcano Bay included , you'll want a 3 park-to-park ticket for as many days as you'd like to visit.
The Express Pass is a separate, optional purchase that allows you to skip the line once for each ride and attraction; purchasing an Unlimited Express Pass allows you to skip the line as many times as you'd like.
We are planning on going to Universal on May 8th and purchasing the 2 park 1 day pass. We are not purchasing express passes. If it were to rain that day, we can use that ticket on the 7th or the 9th where its the same price as the 8th correct? Thanks is advance. Yes, that's correct. Universal categorizes their tickets and pricing by " season ," and it looks like all dates, as you noted, are considered the same in that regard - good to go! We are planning to come to Orlando for a couple of weeks from Australia.
Is there a pass longer than 5 days? What type of ticket do you think will be best? Thank you? You will need the 3-Park ticket for Universal's Volcano Bay. Here are all of our discount Universal Orlando ticket options. Hi - we are looking at visiting Universal in February We just want to do two park days and don't need park to park. Our boys are young and we just want one day at Universal Studios and one day Islands of Adventure.
We want to stay at a Universal Resort too and want Unlimited Express passes. What would be the best combo for this? I can't seem to find a deal for just 2 days If you visit this page and scroll about halfway down, you'll see our listings for Base Tickets 2-day, too! We bought our Disney World tickets from you when we went in January of this year. Great service. When will the tickets go on sale for Universal Studios Orlando for February ?
Most of our Universal Orlando tickets expire 12 months after ordering, so you should be set! Please check the specific terms for the ticket you are interested in.
Just wondering if anyone knows the best room and ticket deal for July. Universal Orlando Resort is a massive theme park bursting with amazing things to do. If you have time and your budget allows for it, we suggest visiting both parks. Each offers a unique experience all its own. No matter how long you get to spend at Universal Orlando Resort our breakdown detailing the differences, highlights, and must-dos of each park will be super helpful.
Many of the attraction here are themed around entertainment. In addition, many of the rides are 3D rides. This park is geared more towards daring thrills and has more of classic theme park vibe. This highly themed area of Universal Orlando Resort now spans both parks.
And, a ride aboard this train is a must! With that said, are you ready to for the showdown between Universal Studios vs. Islands of Adventure? And it has paid off! Why so? Well, the fire-breathing dragon at the top of it is a pretty good identifier. Visiting Springfield, the Universal Studios section dedicated to all things The Simpsons, prepare to enter a cartoon world come to life.
The vibrant colors and over-the-top designs are a true showcase of this animated classic. Then, go on a 4D adventure with The Simpsons on an action-packed virtual ride. We continue to be as impressed by this ride as we were when we first rode it the summer it debuted. From the queue entertainment to the truly zany adventures of The Simpsons family, this over-the-top virtual reality experience is engaging from start to finish.
On this motion simulator attraction, fight alongside Optimus Prime and Bumblebee as they battle to keep our planet safe from the Decepticons. The parks are limiting visitor numbers, and all visitors are required to wear masks in the park. You can expect temperature checks and social distancing practices, and you may also be required to use hand sanitizer before getting on rides. Learn more here.
But I understand that planning a trip to a place like Universal can be a little daunting. The Orlando resort now has three separate parks — Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, and Volcano Bay — and if you've never been before you may have no clue which one s are going to be right for you. So here's where I come in! After spending quite a bit of time in each of the Universal Orlando parks, here's my breakdown of what to see, do, and eat in each park. This should hopefully help you decide which Universal park is better for you.
Buy your Universal Orlando tickets with a discount here! Universal Studios is the backbone of Universal Orlando Resort.
This theme park was the first of the three to open in , and is themed around movies and television. Universal Studios is only roughly divided up into sections that correspond with different movie-making locations around the world, but there are a couple of distinctly themed sections, too. Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit — A thrilling roller coaster where you can choose a song to listen to for the duration of the ride.
I'm spoiled when it comes to roller coasters having grown up near Cedar Point in Ohio , but this one definitely gets your adrenaline going with the first hill, which you ascend while lying flat on your back in the car. Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts — This incredible ride mixes a roller coaster with 3-D technology and is seriously fun whether you're a Harry Potter fan or not. Revenge of the Mummy — Man, I hope this ride never goes away! It's mostly an indoor roller coaster, but a delightfully creepy and kitschy one that includes all of the best parts of the original!
Mummy movie. Men in Black Alien Attack — In this interactive ride you scoot around in a pod-like car, laser gun in hand. Your mission is to zap as many aliens throughout the streets of New York as possible.
Prepare to laugh a lot on this one! It's a fun way to move between parks but note that you WILL need a park-to-park ticket in order to ride. There are also a lot of 3-D and motion simulator rides at Universal Studios. I sadly can't ride many of these because they make me feel sick, but a few that people seem to love include:. Not into rides? You can also check out Universal's Cinematic Spectacular, a nighttime light and water show celebrating famous movie moments, and Universal's Superstar Parade, which includes fun floats and favorite characters like SpongeBob SquarePants and the Minions.
There are lots of dining options within Universal Studios, from a seafood grill to an Italian restaurant to a 50s-style diner. Springfield — In the Simpsons section of the park, grab an adult drink at the Duff Brewery beer garden or Flaming Moe's, food to-go at Krusty Burger, and a massive, face-sized pastry at Lard Lad Donuts.
Full disclosure: I do not have children, so I can't speak from experience as to what kids would like the most at any of these parks. Adventure, and Despicable Me Minion Mayhem. You can also book a character breakfast a Despicable Me character breakfast if the kids are in love with the Minions; the breakfast happens every Saturday morning at Loews Royal Pacific Resort. Opened in as the second park at Universal Orlando, Islands of Adventure focuses on just that: adventure! Each island is highly themed — much more so than the different parts of Universal Studios.
Hogsmeade the Wizarding World park is probably the most popular, but every island is definitely worth wandering through. Again, this is just based on my personal opinion, but my favorite Islands of Adventure rides include:. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey — The wait for this ride is almost as fun as the ride itself, since the line has you winding through the rooms of Hogwarts Castle.
The ride itself makes you feel like you're following Harry around the Quidditch pitch on a broomstick. Note: This is a motion simulator ride and yes, does usually make me feel sick — but it's so awesome that I still ride it. The Incredible Hulk Coaster — This one is a must for thrill-seekers. You can't miss the big green coaster looming over the rest of the islands, and a complete revamp of the track makes for a much smoother ride these days. Skull Island: Reign of Kong — This is one of the newer rides at Islands of Adventure, and it's a 3-D adventure that's not a motion simulator.
You get into a huge safari-like vehicle, and drive through the jungles of Skull Island. Your chances of meeting a giant ape are high. Water rides — Islands of Adventure is where you want to go if you're looking to get wet at a theme park. Mythos Restaurant — Located in The Lost Continent, this full-service restaurant is consistently voted as one of the best theme park restaurants in the world. It features a mix of Mediterranean, Asian, and American fare, and is definitely worth a stop for lunch or dinner.
You can also check out the Green Eggs and Ham Cafe where, yes, you can get a Green Eggs and Ham sandwich , or grab a giant turkey leg at any of the eateries in Jurassic Park.
Most of the shows at Islands of Adventure are kid-appropriate, and I'd argue that this park has the most kid-friendly sections mostly because of Seuss Landing. Seuss Character Zone. I also of course always get a photo in front of Hogwarts Castle, and Seuss Landing is super colorful and great for pictures, too. It opened in May , and is pushing the boundaries of what a water park can be. Volcano Bay features a foot-tall waterfall, a huge wave pool, more than a dozen water rides and slides, and a new wearable that aims to eliminate standing in line for rides.
I was invited to experience the opening of Volcano Bay and, as someone who loathes putting on a bathing suit, I actually had a TON of fun. Volcano Bay has its very own Polynesian-inspired backstory, and the theme is present in every single corner of the park, from the names of the slides to the food you'll find in the restaurants. There aren't designated sections of Volcano Bay — it's one big park with a Polynesian theme. There is an area dedicated to kids, though Tot Tiki Reef , so the whole family can enjoy the park.
Krakatau Aqua Coaster — I mean, it's a water roller coaster — how can it not be fun?? Ko'okiri Body Plunge — This trapdoor-like slide is located at the very top of the volcano, and drops riders feet at a degree angle. Honu ika Moana — There are two slides to choose from here. My pick? Go on the blue Honu slide with 3 or 4 friends. Your tube goes up two massive walls and truly is thrilling.
Grab a tube and ride this fast-flowing river instead. Here the clear slide from the Ko'okiri Body Plunge runs right through the pool, meaning you can get an excellent view of the brave souls trying this slide. Going along with Volcano Bay's theme, you'll find plenty of island-inspired food and drink on offer.
Check out:. The Feasting Frog — Grab a poke bowl or taco sampler to enjoy on the patio. Whakawaiwai Eats — Try the Island BBQ chicken pizza, a pretzel dog with pineapple salsa, or jerk shrimp mac and cheese.
Waturi Beach is of course family-friendly, and there are kid-specific areas like Tot Tiki Reef suitable for even the littlest of little ones and Runamukka Reef. The Puka Uli Lagoon area is also fine for kids, and the Kopiko Wai Winding River might be suitable for kids who don't want to or can't go on the bigger water rides.
Look for the large kiosks where you can use your TapuTapu wearable to snap selfies. And be sure to get up close to the large tiki heads because they talk!
So which park is right for you?
