Wow, this is the next best thing to actually being in the wizarding world. I know I’d want to go!
Hi, I just saw and joined your blog through a google alert about the Harry Potter opening! I had no clue it was coming so soon! Can you tell me what a park to park is? The special above mentions 3 tickets but not park to park. I am in my first day of researching to see if I cna pull this off for my son, do you think package deals are the way to go? Sorry for all of the questions, this looks like a great blog!
Hi Lisa, Park-to-Park allows you to visit Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios the same day. With the ticket in this package you can visit one park a day. The price of this package is good. If you have a Harry Potter fan in your family this is a great way to see the attraction, receive the commemorative ticket, have the special breakfast etc. I hope it works out for you.
I did read over and over and found out that 3 days ticket is not included in package. That confused me. I did check with Universal online and it still said not included.. you have to pay for both hotel and park which come up to $404 something instead of $285. That is frustrated for Universal Studios to mislead that information.
The 3 day ticket is included in the $285 deal as listed in this post.
