The entire experience was great and very exciting . Really enjoyed all excitements will definitely come back again. My only request to the management is wish you can open till late or do something for the long waiting queues and it is really taking time for the guests who can't enjoy much on all the games and rides. I believe each and every humans who was in the theme park would definitely love to play the rides and the games again and again it is that exciting and also not to forget the food and beverages are really awesome. I really loved the Jurassic Park foods especially .Anyway in overall I will always love Universal Studios anywhere in the world.

Fantastic experience.The park is beautiful, meticulously maintained. It feels like being in a dream. We stayed from opening time until closing time and despite the heat of the day and the miles we walked we would have liked to stay there for another whole day. You really never get bored. There are so many attractions , shows and games you can do. For young and old alike. We were fascinated by Nintendo World where it really feels like being catapulted into a video game and the settings are fantastic. Also very nice is the Harry Potter Village where we tried what for us was the best attraction of all (Harry Potter and Forbidden Journey).For lovers of the Saga it will be spectacular.I recommend buying the Express Pass to have a chance to skip the line in at least 4 attractions because for the most popular ones there is a long wait (at least an hour). There are many restaurants and the food is good. Prices are average for amusement parks and there are many restrooms, all super clean and cozy. Highly recommended if you want to have a carefree and fun day and want to be a kid again. We will be back.

What we loved most about my experience was how genuinely friendly everyone was. The staff and characters waved so often, smiled, and made us feel so welcome, especially when they found out it was our first time visiting. One of the absolute highlights was meeting Shrek. He was just as excited as we were! He gave Sam a huge hug, and they both laughed so much that Shrek ended up holding his heart like he couldn’t believe how funny and joyful the moment was. It was so special, especially coming from Australia and not speaking Japanese, to be able to interact in such a physical, no verbal way. It made the experience feel truly magical and unforgettable. Thank you so much! We will remember this forever.

I was very unsure about buying anything extra for this trip. But when the second day of my trip came I had gotten the express pass for my family and once we started going on more rides I noticed immediately the difference the longest i waited was maybe 15 minutes and that's already exaggerating it. The price was steep but I highly recommend it it was the best decision if you get the one to include Super Nintendo world you can ride everything and honestly only spend a total of 15 minutes in line for all of them out together not each one it was amazing
