How long to REALLY see both Universal and IOA and Wet N Wild during July 06 visit

[djm99]

I would really like to SEE and DO everything in both Universal/IOA, and Wet N Wild - I mean really see it all - How many days should I put aside just for this!!!

It may depend on the crowds but as IOA and US are walking distance apart I would say possibly 2 days for these parks.

You could go to one park in the morning and then walk onto the other later on but suspect you may need a couple of days as it is a busy time of the year and also it will be very hot.
2 days at a leisurely pace should be plenty.

Taking WetnWild I would have thought half a day would be plenty of time, but again it could be busy also.

3 days if you are going in July. One day for each park and then one final day to hit things you weren't able to to the other days and to revisit some favorites.

I would never go to Wet and Wild in July. The lines are over an hour long, and it gets hot waiting in line for those slides. Plus there is not alot of room to move around because it is so crowded in the pools.
Wet and Wild is the best water park in Orlando, it beats anything Disney has, but it is just too crowded to go to in the peak summer time.

You can visit WnW one of the mornings. It's the same advice I give for the parks, show up early and be first into the gate. Hit the major slides before the crowds show up, then do the lazy river and wave pool stuff. They have a beer stand near the wave pool, wooo hooo.

We went July 6th this year, stayed 2 nights at the RPR and saw everything. Yes, the crowds are very busy in July, but the parks also stay open later. So you can visit a park in the morning, go back to the hotel and swim, then come back at 5pm as the tired are leaving. The other good thing with going after July 4th is you get to see fireworks at 09:50pm each night.

If you want to throw in WnW one morning, and really see everything, I'd say you need 3 nights at an onsite hotel. The RPR is the fan favorite around here these days.

Agreed. We had one each, and even with Express Plus wanted a third day. (Well, we actually had it, but after the Keys and 9 nights at WDW, it had to be used for rest and recovery.) I'd go four myself with the addition of WnW.

Cheers.
