Universal Orlando Resort

Universal's family of theme parks, hotels, and entertainment complexes has developed into a world class destination including 2 amazing theme parks, Universal Studios^® and Universal's Islands of Adventure. The great dining and night-time entertainment complex CityWalk^® completes the mix along with several superb on-site hotels.

Getting there is easy. Universal Boulevard runs right into International Drive or you can approach from either direction on I-4. You'll leave your vehicle in a MASSIVE multi story parking lot (write down where you park!). Then a series of escalators and moving walkways deliver you to the entrance of CityWalk®. Once you've strolled shopped or eaten your way through CityWalk®, you can either bear left to Universal's Islands of Adventure or head to the right and aim straight for Universal Studios® (You can easily walk between these 2 theme parks in just a few minutes which is unusual for Orlando)

Lockers are available and you can also rent strollers and wheelchairs if needed. Get to the two Universal parks as early as you can. You'll see more in the first couple of hours than you will all afternoon when the crowds reach their peak. Pick up a park map and entertainment schedule upon arrival - take a few moments to read it and plan your day to include some 'sit-down' shows (your feet will appreciate it!)

.Operating hours vary from park to park and season to season - you can call  (407) 363-8000 for information or to be connected to any location on Universal property. For Universal Dining we strongly recommend making a reservation by calling (407) 224-WALK.
