Which Harry Potter ride is better at Universal?

Taking the number 1 spot, Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure is not merely an attraction—it's an odyssey through the magical world of Harry Potter. Standing out not just within the precincts of Universal but across Orlando, this is more than a roller coaster—it's an experience.

If you're a thrill seeker, consider Hosgmeade. If you'd prefer to walk, eat and shop, head to Diagon Alley. In the end, both Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade are worth a visit — and with a ticket that allows you to hop between parks, a quick ride on the Hogwarts Express can ensure you experience both Harry Potter lands.

Forbidden Journey is a stunning achievement and a must-see attraction. Thrill Scale (0 = Not Scary at All!, 10 = Yikes!): 5.5. There are lots of gotchas typical of dark rides and psychological thrills. This is an aggressive ride that simulates flying with sometimes startling vehicle movements.

We would rank Forbidden Journey five out of five Dementors in terms of scariness. Close encounters with over-sized spiders and those pesky Dementors, along with the unique ride motion, can make the experience as scary as it is amazing.
