When searching for things to do in Florida most people think of the beaches and Disney. Disney World isn’t the only theme park game in town though! Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure both bring just as much excitement, if not more than that mouse and his friends ever could.
At Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure you get to ride the movies. At Universal Studios you will go behind the scenes of box office hits such as Transformers, Despicable Me, ET, Revenge of the Mummy and Men in Black. Islands of Adventure puts you up close and personal with many of the favorite Marvel superheroes on amazing rides like The Incredible Hulk Coaster that accelerates you from zero to 40 mph in two seconds flat. You can also enjoy the land of Dr. Seuss, go white water rafting with Popeye the Sailor Man or have an encounter with the dinosaurs of Jurassic Park.
Of course the most popular area of the two parks for the last couple of years has been The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ as this magical place allows you to step into the movie and have your own wizardly experience. At Universal Studios you will trek through the streets of Diagon Alley, have your wand choose you at Ollivander wand shop, grab some silly gag gifts at the Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes and learn the best equipment you can get for the highest Quidditch scores possible.
Then, if you have a two park pass you can also travel to Islands of Adventure to continue your Harry Potter excitement by traveling via the Hogwarts Express into Hogsmeade. Here you will get to actually visit Hogwarts Castle and explore the classrooms and corridors.
