Looks of stuff to do, the rides were amazing with decently short wait times on weekdays. Lots of different food and drinks to try from. Butter beer is a must try. Lots of places to shop for Harry Potter themed stuff. They definitely got pretty much every detail on point. Would definitely recommend this place if you are a fan of Harry Potter or even just visiting universe studios. Will definitely be back.

The area of Harry Potter is free but you need to pay to visit individual places. It’s an amazing, magical place for Harry Potter fans.

Growing up in HP, all I can say is that I love this place. All the shops and buildings just give you all the good feelings. This is my 3rd time around, and everything was still exciting.
The staff are generally nice and helpful.
The bathrooms' cleanliness is a hit and miss.
The rides and eateries are fun and exciting.
For Butterbeer, I suggest getting a frozen one from HogsHead and also a shot of Bailey's (if you're over 21).
The downside is when you try to do magic around the park, and the sensors are really hard to work with. It's really difficult to make a spell work, and oftentimes, there is an out of order sign behind the spell shops. If they can only figure this out, then the experience will become truly magical.
Highly recommend express passes to avoid hours of wait time. If you are staying at the hotels, your unlimited express pass is included.

As you watch people disappear behind an unassuming brick wall, you too get curious and follow them into this amazing space. There's plenty to explore, and a fire breathing dragon.

If you love the world of Harry Potter, you will love this. They recreated the world of Harry Potter done to the last detail. The land is so immersive and life like. From the feel to the buildings, to the food including butter beer and all the magic wands, the rides and the fire breathing dragon.

Everything about this FANTASTIC!!! I acted like a big kid and didn't care! I loved it! We had tickets to the special Harry Potter breakfast's and had the park Hopper passes so we could ride the Hogwarts Express. We figured out the best way to do it was to head that way as soon as the park opened then around 12/1 we'd go back to the resort and relax till around 5/6 then head back. By the time we got back the lines were down and we didn't wait more than 25 mins and got to ride EVERY ride! The shops in diagon alley, Hogwarts, hogsmeade, everything was spectacularly themed! This is a must do for every Harry Potter fan! The butterbeer was good but the frozen butterbeer is where it's at- SO YUMMY! The laser light display on Hogwarts castle is a beautiful way to end your day at Universal! LOVED, LOVED, LOVED!!! 🪄❤️🪄❤️

The park is nice, but the lines all forever, you can spend all the day there and just get into 2 or 3 rides. Do not start the day with the Hadrid Ride, because you will find more line and the others rides has less. Not all the rides are good, so choose wisely. Starting in island of adventure and then taking the train to the universal park is a good start, the most newest and exiting ride are in island of adventure. Avoid vacation time and if you can go during winter, will find less people and a nicer weather.

Short and simple - Harry Potter world is an incredible place. The attention to detail, experience, and technology is amazing. I have not read all the books or watched all movies, but my kids and wife have. They were totally enthralled the whole day by the place. Some of the ride lines were long but they make the wait part of the experience. Totally recommend getting the wands - for ~$65 you're not only buying a piece of plastic but the ability to cast spells throughout both parks and our kids loved this part of the experience. The rides were incredible, better than I've experienced anywhere else. The butterbeer is also very delicious! This is by far the best theme park we have ever visited - and this is coming from someone not into the Harry Potter Fandom as much as my family was.
