Located in the heart of Orlando right near International Drive is where you will find the famous Universal Studios. There are 3 sections to this park: City Walk, Universal Studios, and Islands of Adventure.

Universal Studios is on the right side right outside City Walk which includes shows and rides that are less of roller coasters and more exhibits. Here you can enjoy Minions, Fast & Furious, and the Mummys, and more. The Dr. Suess World is perfect for the little ones.
Islands of Adventure is more of a roller coaster park. Get ready for some adrenaline pumping! The park features the Hulk ride, Spider-Man, Dr. Doom, and much more. (The park is undergoing a lot of changes so ride are subject to change)
