I love going to Universal almost as much as going to Disney so these are the rides that make me like Universal.
5. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey
Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey is a good ride in Harry Potter land. Forbidden Journey is a ride where you fly around on a broom. Harry Potter and Ron Weasley fly with you around the school and then things pop out at you such as a dragon, spiders, and dementors! During the ride you are also playing a game of quidditch. This ride does not go upside down but it goes so far back it is like you are lying down!
4. Popeye and Bluto’s Bilge-Rat Barges
Popeye (I call this ride Popeye for short) is a water ride on a barge which is more fun than it sounds. Although this ride will have you super wet after you do it, this ride is still a very exciting ride for almost anyone in the family. This ride is also fun because there are about 6 other people with you on this ride so everybody on the barge laughs at each other when they get wet! This is a good ride to do if you do not mind getting wet and if you want to cool down in the sun.
3. Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts
Escape from Gringotts is a roller coaster in Gringotts bank. The theme is crazy if you read the books and watch the movies. The point of the ride is that Voldemort and his assistant Belllatrix break into a very secure bank and they ask you where Harry Potter is because you were with him and his friends earlier. Then Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Bill (Ron’s brother) get you out!
2. The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man
Spider-Man is a very fun ride to do at whatever age! Spider-Man is a ride in a closed car where you see the spectacular adventures of Spider-Man. Spider-Man is fighting bad guys while you help. In the ride you are recruited to help Spider-Man defeat Doc Ock and his evil crew. In the ride the bad guys attack you. Then Spider-Man saves you just at the last moment!
1. Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure
My favorite ride in all of the Universal parks is Hagrid’s Motorbike Adventure! Lots of people agree with me that Hagrid is the best ride in Universal, and I even go as far as to say Hagrid is the best ride including Disney! Hagrid is a super fun roller coaster where you go with Hagrid to see animals and different creatures. In this ride you can sit in either a bike or a little seat on a sidecar. If you go to Universal this is a must do.
Honorable Mention:
Jurassic Park River Adventure
Jurassic Park River Adventure is a ride where you are going on a journey to see dinosaurs, but you take a wrong turn and go into a restricted area. You keep going up until a T-Rex comes out and there is a huge drop!
Those are my favorite rides in all of Universal!
