What is the difference between Universal One park per day and park to park?

Once you choose a park, whether Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, or Volcano Bay, you can not go to any other park that day. On the other hand, park to park tickets will grant you access to two or three parks in a day, depending on your ticket type.

The main reason is this is the only way to make sure you see absolutely everything that the Wizarding World of Harry Potter has to offer.
