General Travel Tips for Universal Orlando Resort
While planning your next Universal Orlando Resort vacation, there are a few key things to keep in mind to make sure you get the most out of your experience:
- Arrive early and plan breaks: Getting in early helps you beat the line and make sure that you can get to all of your favorite rides, and taking breaks to cool off in the shade will help you feel your best for the entire experience.
- Bring water bottles - hydration is key, and you’ll lose more water from all the running around in the sun!
- Use the Universal Orlando Resort App as a combo map, wait-time monitor, and meal plan device.
- Take advantage of deals and promotions to save on your planned trip.
- Also, explore CityWalk - it’s a free entertainment center and doesn’t require a park ticket!
There’s a lot more to plan ahead for, like picking the time of year to go, deciding which parks you want to spend your time on, and figuring out which tickets make the most sense for your goals and budget. A travel agent from Me and The Mouse Travel can help you figure out what experience is best for you, and monitor promotions to make sure you’re getting the best deal possible.
