I think that just the Butterbeer is worth the visit. Great stuff.
I watched a woman last week walk up and ask the girl working there what it tasted like. The woman said chocolate chip cookies and butterscotch. The woman said, "YUCK!" and walked away. I wanted to shout that she was crazy!!
yeah I heard Harry potter on islands was crazy fun. been in Orlando for 4 years and still haven't been out there.
You must go my friend!
For all the vet's out there, is it better to hit WWOHP first thing when the park opens, or later at night? I've heard mixed reveiws on the topic. I'll be there the first week of August and I'm trying to sort out the plan of action.
Very end of the day. If you go in the morning, go right at the gate when it opens and expect a 30 minute+ wait. The whole park makes a mad dash for this ride when it opens. PLUS, it's in the very back of the park and that's quite a walk when tugging on your kids. Better to ride other rides like Hulk and Spiderman at opening when they are walk on. That being said, don't tire yourself out so you can't make it the end of day. The first thing in the morning is still better than nothing.
Hi, we will be at WDW at the end of September and plan to visit IOA for one day just to visit HP!! How busy is it during that time and what would be the best day to go?? I have Wednesday the 26th planned right now! Any tips/tricks would be really appreciated!! Thank you!
Crowds won't be as bad then. BUT, HP is busy year around. I've never seen this ride have less than a 75 minute wait even in the slow season, and we go often (excluding when the park opens and just before close).
Also, just an FYI for a pp, this ride does not take express pass. There are several rides that don't. So if you stay on site, be aware you can't come in the afternoon and get right on. This is also why I would never buy the express pass.
And for those who have never been, I recommend trying both the frozen and the non frozen butterbeers. Both are amazing! Three Broomsticks is my favorite CS of any park. And while I'm on a role, Mythos is a fabulous TS (though it closes early).
I'm not a HP fan. Saw the movies once, they were good but I don't go out of my way to watch them. Never read the books, though my kids are fans. But I absolutely love this area. It's just SO crowded.
It was AMAZING!!!!!! The area is very small to navigate thru all the crowds, but we survived. We got frozen butter beer at the Hogs Head Tavern. That was very cool. The forbidden journey ride is not to be missed.
We waited over and 1 hour to ride, but worth it.
