Muggles Travel To Florida!

The doors to Hogwarts have opened and Florida holidays are full of wizarding wonder at the new Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park in Orlando.

Inspired by J K Rowling’s stories and characters, this 26-acre attraction at Universal Resort’s Islands of Adventure is a must-see for muggles of all ages. Forbidden Journey is the signature attraction which uses state of the art technology to take visitors on an hour-long tour through Hogwarts Castle, starting with a visit to see Dumbledore in his dusty office. Harry, along with Ron and Hermione, will then take you on a journey soaring above Hogwarts Castle, into a quidditch match and for close encounters with a Dementor and a Whomping Willow.

Other rides include the newly designed dual-track rollercoaster themed around a Triwizard Tournament and Flight of the Hippogriff which allows children to get a ‘birds-eye’ view of the magical land.

Eating out

Dining has been carefully thought out with traditional British fare available at the Hog’s Head pub located next to the Three Broomsticks restaurant. For a sweet-treat head to Honeydukes for imaginative chocolate frogs and Bott’s Every-Flavour beans!

Shopping

Shops will be full of memorable gifts for friends at home. Zonko’s is a joke shop full of Harry Potter oddities; Dervish and Banges is a must for quidditch fans and if you visit The Owl Post you can send a postcard back home bearing a real Hogsmead postmark!

Getting there

Entrance to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter will be included in the general admission to Universal’s Islands of Adventure park. You can buy multi-park tickets in advance which are better value and allow you unlimited access during a fortnight’s holiday. Prices start from £75 for children and £82 for adults.
