Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful, all the attractions where just top notch! From Amity area to Nintendo World and the Harry Potter area, it's definitely worth every penny to enjoy an incredible day. The express queue was super easy to use and we were able to follow the itinerary provided without any issues. 10/10 would do it again.

The skip the lines tickets were perfect as the lines were way too long. Wish I was told that it will not be so crammed in terms of the time slots and also the rides will be only once and cannot be repeated,

    This park is incredible, but it's incredibly busy, which is why I took out the "coupe-file" tickets, which allowed us to do 7 attractions without waiting, as opposed to waiting hours without them. You'll also need to bring something to protect you from the sun in summer when you're moving between attractions or worlds, as it's very, very hot and the sun is very strong if the weather is clear. The attractions are really excellent, especially the rollerscusters which are really great (Hollywood dreams, mine cartmadness ...). The only uninteresting family attraction (according to us and my 7-year-old son) is Yoshi World. In short, a huge park, very well designed, with very friendly, smiling and highly motivated staff, and breathtaking attractions and worlds, but you absolutely must have a ticket to really enjoy them!
