Very cool, I'm more of a Disney fan, but I think Universal blew Disney away with this one! Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey was an amazing ride and the walk through of hogwarts was just crazy! I wish I had more to look through it....we went on a slow day so the line was only 10 mins.

Before you go to Harry Potter World, you need to either watch the movies or read the books. I was very impressed when I got to Harry Potter World. When I was watching TV and the Universal commerical came on I wanted to be the kid at Harry Potter World. You need to get there early because it will get...

Wow- we were stupified. We loved it but wished it were bigger. Most stores were facads...very detailed and true to book. It was hot and not many places to get out of the sun or cool off. Rides were awesome as well as the butter beer. Would go back during a less crowded time.

Crowds were a little much. But everyone who worked there was great. Everyone had a great attitude. The main Harry Potter ride's line was 60 minutes. Fortunately it moved fairly well & the humidity was not too bad.

I am not a massive fan of Harry Potter but WOW! It's all pretty cool and whether you're interested in the books, the films or not - you must check this place out! It's truly magical.
The main feature, the ride in Hogwarts is really cool, it is my favourite at Universal, it's really clever. It is totally worth what...

Go early in the morning or late before closing to avoid the biggest queues. The butter beer is great, the details in the park are fantastic and it is one of the best parts of a day out in Florida, myself and my husband (who's not a potter fan) absolutely loved it!

The day I went to Universal was a little overcast and chilly. The sky was grey with filtered light. It was the perfect backdrop for the snowcapped peaks of Hogsmeade. Although the lines for butterbeer are long it's worth the wait. Pumpkin juice is also very yummy. The line for the ride was over an hour but there was always...
