This book contains lots of valuable information about Universal. There is lots of information about Disney, but when it comes to Universal, good clear information is hard to find. Not only does the book give ride details, it also reviews the restaurants and onsite hotels. It was very useful when planning our upcoming trip. I would recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Universal Orlando.

Incredibly thorough and useful guide to the Universal Orlando Themepark experience!!! Definitely a must-read for first time planners as well as veteran planners. With so many books claiming to detail the themepark experience in Orlando that focus almost entirely on Walt Disney World, it's nice to read one specifically on Universal Orlando as opposed to a chapter or two at the end of a book.

I found this book to be very helpful and without the anxiety producing, "commando" type information found in some other books. We were provided with the information we needed to plan an awesome vacation for our family. We wish we would have invested in this book before our first trip to Universal Orlando as we found we missed several attractions and shows we would have liked to visit. This time, thanks to the information in this guide, we won't miss a thing. I wouldn't recommend going to Universal Orlando without it!
