Universal's Islands of Adventure Description

Islands of Adventure is a blast, and the rides are incredible. The Jurassic Park River Adventure ride is a favorite of one 9-year-old boy, while an 8-year-old girl loves Doctor Doom's Fear Fall (their mother tolerates them both with a smile for the sake of family togetherness). Other top attractions include the Amazing Adventures of Spider Man (a 3-D experience you won't forget), the Incredible Hulk Coaster, and Dueling Dragons (the "duelers" are two intertwined roller coasters).

Kid Tips

Toddlers & Pre-K: Favorite Dr. Seuss books come to life in Seuss Landing. Kids will laugh out loud when the Cat In the Hat takes them on his crazy adventures with Thing One and Thing Two. And don't let your future paleontologist miss seeing a baby dinosaur being "born" from an egg in the Jurassic Park Discovery Center.

Planning Notes

Pre-purchase. Buy tickets in advance online to get a discount. Consider purchasing the Universal Express Pass to bypass lines on rides and attractions if you're staying off-site (it's included when you stay at one of the three on-site hotels).

Well-suited. Consider wearing a bathing suit to this park as there are several rides that will get you wet.
