Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey

Amusement park ride

👍👍 This is a very fun ride which I can see why it's very popular at Universal Studios. We came on a Monday to start off our honeymoon and it was a great choice.

Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge

Amusement park ride

😠 Absolute terrible experience. Long lines (120+ min wait). They don't even tell you what you need to do with the VR on, so you're randomly shooting at stuff and they give you a score at the end. Unless you have kids who are super keen on the ride, avoid wasting your time and enjoy other experiences a...

The Secret Life of Pets: Off the Leash

Amusement park ride

👍 It's a ok ride. The good part is they're got the virtual line in the official app, which will save you some time, but I don't think you should wait for more than 20 minutes for this ride.
