Islands of Adventure Park Plan

Islands of Adventure Park Plan

Journey through legendary worlds of superheroes, magical creatures, dinosaurs, and witchcraft and wizardry at Universal’s Islands of Adventure. There’s plenty of things to see and do from amazing rides and attractions to Kids’ play areas and character encounters. Islands of Adventure is also home to some of Orlando’s most popular rides such as Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure and The Incredible Hulk Coaster!

Our team members at The Park Prodigy have put together this itinerary for you to get the most out of your day no matter if you have Universal Express passes or not! We have learned that one of the most important aspects to make the most out of your time in the parks is to A) arrive early and B) stay late when possible. We recommend arriving 30 minutes ahead of park opening which will allow you to take advantage of lower wait times on some of the most popular attractions.

Islands of Adventure Park Plan With Early Park Admission

This custom Islands of Adventure Itinerary also takes into account that you will have Universal Early Admission which is included with all Park Prodigy tickets! Be sure to check the Universal Orlando website to confirm which day Early Park Admission will be held at Islands of Adventure during your trip!

This park plan should ideally be used during low or moderate crowds at the parks, however it has been optimized to also help families planning during heavily crowded days. The projected wait times below are from an 8/10 crowd level day on our Universal Orlando Calendar. This Islands of Adventure itinerary does NOT include a midday break and we find it to be best suited for families with older children and young teens. Be sure to check out the Universal Orlando height restrictions for all rides if you’re visiting with small children. Please note that this Islands of Adventure Itinerary does not include a trip on the Hogwarts express however guests can simply mix and match which rides work best for you!
