Universal's Islands of Adventure (also known as Islands of Adventure or IOA), originally called Universal Studios Islands of Adventure, is a theme park located in Orlando, Florida. It opened on May 28, 1999, along with CityWalk, as part of an expansion that converted Universal Studios Florida into the Universal Orlando Resort. The resort's slogan Vacation Like You Mean It was introduced in 2013.
Islands of Adventure is modeled after a journey of exploration, where guests embark on an adventure to visit a variety of themed islands. Initially, the park featured six islands. A seventh, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, was added in 2010, themed to the highly successful Harry Potter franchise. It was Universal's largest investment since the resort's founding in 1990. The expansion led to a significant increase in attendance, and in 2013, Islands of Adventure ranked seventh domestically and eleventh internationally after hosting approximately 8.1 million guests.[3] The eighth island, Skull Island, opened on July 13, 2016, and is themed to the King Kong franchise.

We are in the works of planning our first ever trip to Florida! Going with a friend and our 21 year old daughters. So exciting! I have to say, did not realized how big Universal park was. WoW! The girls love rides and I think they would love the big thrilling rides here and at Universal park (just finished that video). Thanks for information, very helpful! Subscribed, as I bet you have lots of more info plus for Disney for us!

Your videos are so informative! I am looking at Florida for the first time next Easter. My boys would be 9 and 11. I feel like they will love islands of adventure, volcano bay and universal studies. I think we would go for 11 nights. Would we massively miss out if we didn’t do Disney as well?
@themepark101 Жыл бұрын
For me, Orlando is a far from where I live, so if I travel there, I will usually do Universal and Disney. 11 days is quite a lot for the Universal Resort. Have considered doing a split stay? Like 6 days at Disney and 5 days at Universal?

As an Orlando native who does all the parks. You really don't need 11 nights at these 3 parks. Only 12-15 rides at each park, really. I wouldn't say you're missing out by not going by Disney. Universal is a vacation in itself. But Disney does have more to do as a vacation.

If your up for it, you could do both the parks in one day? But with a 6 and 8 year old, that might be tough. I think Islands would be best right now, and as long as you are going mid-week, you should be golden.
