We are carving out a day or two this trip for our first ever detour to Universal. My two youngest (8 and 9) have become Harry Potter fanatics, so this is a must!
We are seriously considering booking the non-private VIP tour for our first day to US/IoA. This would be for a Friday in October. I know the private tour would be even more amazing, but the $3300 is simply a bridge too far, budget wise. I think we can swing the roughly $1800 for a non-private VIP tour for the 5 of us, as a splurge.
I know the non-private tour can have up to 12 people, and we would make up 5 of those people. I know the tour guide sets the agenda as a kind of "highlights" tour.
My concern is that both my husband and I have enough neck and back issues that we can no longer ride the intense roller coasters. And our middle aged stomachs (inner ears?) have caught up with us as well, so that we don't enjoy rides that induce a lot of motion sickness.
I'm looking for actual experience from those of you who have actually taken the non-private VIP tour. Which rides did you actually get to go on? Would the tour be a waste for those of us who really don't want to do rides like Dr. Doom and the Dueling Dragons?
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
