In this episode, Iām joined by Chad Pennycuff of the My DVC Points podcast to break down everything you need to know about Universal Orlandoās brand-new theme park, Epic Universe ā starting with where to stay, what to skip and how to save. I share my experiences attending the Grand Opening event for media.
We also recap Chadās incredible theme park tour across Asia, including Shanghai Disney, Universal Beijing, Tokyo Disney and more. Hear what Disney is doing next level overseas and how it compares to the new Epic Universe experience.
Then we shift to:
- Hotel options at Epic (including pros/cons of Stella Nova, Terra Luna & the ultra-pricey Helios Grand)
- A deep dive into the Wizarding World of Harry Potter: Ministry of Magic ā the ride, the land, the queue and the details you donāt want to miss
- Tips on wait times, Express Pass strategy, early entry and how to use points to cover your Universal trip
- What we loved (and didnāt) about Celestial Park and its headline coaster, Stardust Racers
