Hello,
I'm looking at going to Universal Studios on August 25 (Sunday) and August 26 (Monday) for my husband and I. We went a few years ago (before Harry Potter), but missed a few rides including Rip Ride Rockit. We plan on doing US one day and IOA one day.
I'd like to do the "VIP Experience" (see below) for one of those days, but not sure which to choose. Any insight on which park it is better spent on? I believe if you do it at US, they might take you to look at some behind the scenes stuff on movie sets and prop rooms... is there anything cool like that for IoA, or mostly just line skipping?
Any insight welcome.
The Non-Private VIP Experience:
Providing you with a sampling of what our theme parks have to offer, the Non-Private VIP Experience is a structured, shorter in duration, attractions oriented walking tour where your VIP Guide will choose the rides and attractions the combined group of guests will be visiting (generally concentrating on our more high energy, thrill oriented rides and attractions).
Non-Private VIP Experiences depart daily at 10:00AM EST, with combined groups consisting of no more than 12 guests* per VIP guide.
Single Park Non-Private VIP Experience lasting up to 5 hours (with a 45 minute break mid-way through), the Single Park Non-Private VIP Experience provides you with an overview of either Universal Studios Florida OR Islands of Adventure as well as VIP Priority Access to 8 of the parks signature rides and attractions.
Price: Non-Peak $169.99 per person/Peak $229.99 per person, plus tax and park admission.
Park-to-Park Non-Private VIP Experience departing daily from Islands of Adventure and lasting up to 7 hours (with a 1 hour break mid-way through), this experience provides you with an overview of both Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios Florida as well as VIP Priority Access to 10 of our most popular rides and attractions.
Price: Non-Peak $189.99 per person/Peak $249.99 per person, plus tax and park-to-park admission.
