Universal Orlando is a fantastic choice for a long weekend trip. You can really feel like you've done a lot within 2 or 3 days. Here's why:

🚶‍♀️ The front gates of Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure are within walking distance of each other, so you can easily bounce between the two throughout the day. Or take the Hogwarts Express! Having the Park to Park ticket options is a must and absolutely worth it.

🎢 With the new DreamWorks Land there are even more family friendly options at Universal Orlando! Whether you want to meet characters, ride rollercoasters, or take a water ride plunge through Jurassic Park, there is something for everyone.

⏰ Staying at a Universal Resort automatically gets you in the parks an hour early. Beating the crowds this way can save you a ton of time!

🏨 The variety of hotel and room options at Universal Orlando is incredible. There is truly something for every family at every price point. And if you're looking to stay at a Premier Resort, you'll get Ultimate Express Passes included in your stay!

If you're looking for great fall break family trip options, put Universal Orlando on your list! I love sharing tips and tricks with my clients visiting Universal and I'm here to help you, too.
