It was my 2nd time there and I purposely go back there for the new Harry Porter rides.


I have timeshare so accommodation for me is not expensive for me think we spend S$800 for 7 nights stay somewhere near to Disney World. And we rent a car to move around as we travel out of orlando to a small spanish town St Augstin.

Food and shopping wise I find that is cheaper than Singapore 🙂

Dnls_mum:
The one in London is not a theme park. Just movies sets. The one in Islands of Adventure in Orlando is a theme park. So it depends on what you want. I am not sure if they have place in LA to build one too. But they seem to be expanding the one in Orlando to include Diagonal Alley on the Universal Studios Jaws site, based on rumors.


We just came back from Orlando, and being Harry Potter fans and I must saw the theming including merchandise and F&B are fantastic, it is not only rides but a total experience. It is like you have walked into the movie or book.
Agree with Dnls mum! We love the overall experience. If you go to orlando, you should check the theme park out.

After going through all the information on Orlando, I guess Orlando is a fun place for all ages.

Yes, I been to Orlando Universal Studios last Dec 2011.


I am not a fan of Harry Porter , but I am very impressed by the Settings.

Is like you are taken back to Harry Porter time.


The buildings are just like those shown in the movie....
The ride is exciting , so far the one and only one in this world
This is an attraction in Orlando .

LA Universal Studio will build another one ...in a few years time...

But going to Orlando takes more than 20 hours , changing a few flights

Going to London from Singapore is around 12 hours direct flight....
:thankyou:
