Universal Orlando Resort

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter? Transformers? The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man? Whatever excites you most about visiting the legendary Universal Orlando Resort, you need a plan. Because at both of its monumental theme parks, Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure, it’s very easy to get lost—or stuck in line for considerably longer than the average Hogwarts lesson. The VIP Universal Experience sounds pricey at $329, but when you add up everything you get in return—from complimentary valet parking and behind-the-scenes tours to priority front-of-line access and reserved seating—it’s certainly worth considering.
