Creator's Key Takeaways

I have graciously been hosted by Universal today. So, we're doing a VIP tour.

Harry Potter and the Battle of the Ministry is the absolutely the best ride that I did today. It may be the best ride on planet Earth.

This park is truly so special. It is so beautiful and the way that these worlds reveal themselves to you.

The best character meet and greet experience I've ever had in any park anywhere.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Prioritize Harry Potter and the Battle of the Ministry ride.
Expect long lines for character meet and greets due to personalized interactions.
Visit at night to see Dark Universe and Stardust Racers illuminated.
