What age is best for Universal Studios Orlando?

However, the Universal Studios age recommendation is a fairly mature 8 years-old. If they're younger they probably won't be able to appreciate much of the entertainment or be able to go on many rides, but families do have a fun experience when taking a trip together.

Universal isn't quite as baby and toddler friendly as other theme parks and it's really aimed at teenagers and adults… This doesn't mean that you need to wait until your kids are grown to visit. Universal Orlando with kids can be fun!

That said, Wizarding World (like most of the rides at Universal Studios) is probably best suited for kids 7 & up. Kids who are already well-versed in all things Potter will have the best time since every nook and cranny is inspired by J.K. Rowling's sprawling imagination.

Disney World definitely has more attractions for young kids, and Universal Studios might look like it just has thrill rides. But we like to wander the themed areas to watch street artists before casually catching character parades — without needing to queue up beforehand.

Rides at Universal Studios Orlando for 4-year-old & 5-year old. The cutest age to go to Universal in my opinion. My barely 4-year-old son rode all the rides below as they have a height limit of 40? or 42?, plus all the other rides with lower limits. Some rides are more intense than others.

If you're more interested in large rides like roller coasters, Universal is going to be your best bet. The same is true if you're a big fan of Harry Potter. If you don't mind some of the more family-friendly rides or you have little ones to bring along, Disney may be a better option.

Most people would say 6-7 hours is the average time needed to see the best of Universal Studios, so pretty much one full day.

There is a lot of stimulation at Universal Studios Hollywood for toddlers. If you need a quiet spot to decompress (or you need to nurse a baby), hop into a quiet room in the Family Center located near WaterWorld. You can use a private room with a chair for an adult, and one for a child with some toys.

General Admission – One day entry to the theme park. Child ticket for ages 3-9 and adult tickets are for guests aged 10+. What is this? Universal Express – The Express Pass offers one-time per day access through the Express line for each participating ride (excluding Mario Kart: Bowser's Challenge).

The toughest decision is deciding which one. Islands of Adventure has the better roller coasters (VelociCoaster, Hulk, and Hagrid's) but Universal Studios has a better mix of attractions and the better Harry Potter land. As Harry Potter fans, I recommend Universal Studios.

At Universal, the wait times can be long for the bigger roller coasters, but the parks themselves are generally much less crowded. There's usually more room to space out and breathe without other guests crowding around you.
