TOP 10 Rides at Universal Orlando

[@erikluther6436]

MIB is a good ride too. Has some of the best A/C available at Universal. Nice break from the heat.

[@roccomacchia9125]

No joke. When it's sweltering hot outside, I find myself heading to MIB just to cool off. I suck at the actual game, but it's a great time

[@kohakufi9]

Right?!? I was so shocked they didn't mention MIB

[@therealventures]

Hagrids vs. Velocicoaster is such a hard pick 😂 I love both! Also, im loving the universal content!

[@bensalisbury6535]

Switch out villaincon for MIB. It’s a way better “ride”. Actual theming and a much better shooting game. You can go to the arcade and play something just like villaincon. 😅

[@henmo24]

MIB Alien Invasion. Best arcade like ride in Universal

[@jagmaida5074]

As a guy with an annual pass I can say I've probably ridden Mib more than anything else other than dr doom since i've never waited more than 5 min for either in single rider

[@victorfontaine000]

Finally!! Disney isn’t what it use to be and I have been watching way more Universal KZbin videos. Good to see you finally have some content for me to watch. Now checking out your food videos in Universal now.

[@largol33t12]

It's been that way for over three years. I tried to book a ticket to Disney three years ago and the prices were so outrageous that I cancelled everything and did the one thing the Mouse would hate: I went to his enemy Universal...

[@AKbaby89]

I didn't even know universal wasn't part of disney😂🫣 ive never been to the parks, but I figured since they were so close, they were owned by the same people.

[@Asteroid44yay]

"disney isnt what it used to be" thats so funny omg

[@Michael-fs5ct]

Yes more universal studios!

[@charitysmidutz498]

Men in Black is our favorite! It's so much fun and the A/C is amazing

[@huntrrams]

I like how you explained the intensity of the rides

[@LiamRichie825]

I’m a motorbike person and am very lucky that my travel companion is a sidecar person

[@hannahl5306]

Mummy is my favorite coaster in the park. Sit in the front if it is your first time.

[@lou4057]

Me too! I love Mummy!

[@erica5590]

I rode mummy on a rainy morning last week and got a whole car to myself!

[@largol33t12]

I always ride the Mummy whenever I go, even if it's cold and raining outside.

[@angelknowsrealestatellc9043]

💯💯 loved it!

[@ChillBro_VR]

i found out it was a coaster the hard way…

[@ethanwintersenjoyer]

i love watching these videos knowing i won’t be going to disney world or universal in at least 5 years

[@cueiogamedevs4972]

Literally me

[@ethanwintersenjoyer]

@@cueiogamedevs4972 they’re so addictive

[@cyber_xiii3786]

hey might as well start preparing 5 years in advance, right?

[@Rose92872]

I AM there RN!!! 😮🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Kuromi_0fficialedits]

@@Rose92872sameee

[@dasoupsoup]

No way they actually put Minion Blast in the top 10 lmao. This is why Disney people can't be trusted with Universal coverage.

[@Magical.Adventures.Travel]

😂😂

[@jsauce22]

We’ve lost the channel to commercialization .. $ to put certain things on lists

[@Dresstoimpress_girly-q7b]

Literally, minion blast kinda sucks

[@nuggetice]

😂😂

[@ScotConway]

I've had E.T. say my name. It's a longtime favorite of mine in large part because E.T. was the last movie I saw with my father in the theaters. Not long after that he got cancer and died years later... so E.T. has a very special place in my heart. I don't think I've ever had a visit to a Universal park with an E.T. ride and not gone on! (Universal Hollywood hasn't had the E.T. ride for a long time).

[@hardytyler1492]

Et said my name too “Hardy”… yes that is my name.

[@tinawidmann8973]

Love this! My husband and I are Universal fans. I would love to see a video on your favorite restaurants/food in Universal.

[@RealSwiggs]

I don’t mean to be this guy, but Hagrid’s dog is Fang. Fluffy is the 3-headed guard dog that is locked on the third floor of Hogwarts Castle in Harry’s first year.

[@lukeniles9339]

I love the UO coverage. We will definitely need a good HHN video this fall. I prefer Transformers to Spider-Man but they are both must-rides. I would inclue MIB in the rankings

[@trippekauffman4728]

Same I love that ride and it always has a low wait

[@donray2435]

Love that ur broadening your content and including the best kept secret in Orlando... UNIVERSAL STUDIOS!

[@divinetiger9756]

Rip saw falls! It's my favorite ride!

[@fullenw]

You must take several extra pairs of socks lol

[@LiamRichie825]

Love Rip Saw Falls too. I think it’s really campy and just a well done flume ride

[@josh3658edwards]

Ngl that ride scared me way more than the Jurassic Park ride 😂

[@elixiamakara1905]

one time it was a heavy downpour in Islands, I got in line for Hagrids as the rain slowed and had a waaaaay short wait

[@KirstenJedamczik]

For Hagrids ride me and my mom only had to stand in line for 45 minutes because on the app it said it was delayed on Tuesday, and we went on the Wednesday after Tuesday so it was a win because I’ve seen that ride at a 150 minute wait

[@lilskywalker4491]

MiB will always be one of our all time favorites. We ride every time, over and over. It's in the top 5 rides there. As far as VC vs Hagrids, we vote VC for the win.

[@Ratchetfan321]

MIB > Space Ranger Spin And Kong needs a shoutout for that last animtronic alone

[@theskullspookychannel6343]

MIB and Dudley Do-Right are both amazing rides and Top 10 for me.

[@matchesmalone2201]

1. Velocicoaster 2. Hagrid’s (esp. at night, bike side) 3. Rip Ride Rocket (underrated) 4. Forbidden Journey 5. The Mummy 6. ET 7. Hulk 8. Gringott’s 9. Jurassic Park River Adventure 10. Transformers (or Spider-Man, but this just is slightly more exciting to me).

[@shealynnmichelle]

Bilge Rat Barges was our last ride of the day during our April 2023 trip. I promptly bought a T-shirt before leaving to change into so I wouldn’t have to sit in the car soaking wet 😂

[@abcbabyyyyy]

1) Hagrids 2) Velocicoaster 3) The Mummy 4) Forbidden Journey 5) Escape from Gringotts 6) Spider-Man 7) Men in Black 8) Jurassic World River Adventure 9) ET 10) Popeye

[@madranking2024]

This video got me pumped up for my next trip to Universal Orlando! The top 10 rides look absolutely amazing, and I appreciate the detailed insights you provided.

[@honeysuckle754]

AJ’s favorite Harry Potter ride is actually Flight of the Hippogriff, but it didn’t make the list 😔

[@Chasi385]

Yesssss! keep the universal content coming❤

[@justinpatrick7899]

Love some Universal content! I knew what ride it was based on the lockers the video was showing lol. My top-10 rides are: 1. Hagrid's (motorbike is better imo) 2. Velocicoaster (row 11 is best imo) 3. Escape from Gringotts 4. Hulk (front row is best imo) 5. Rip Saw Falls 6. JPRA 7. MIB 8. Revenge of the Mummy 9. High in the Sky Seuss Trolley Train Ride 10. Transformers Rip Ride Rockit would make it if Universal refurbished it. It wasn't as rough before and now it gives me a headache

[@elizabethvanvliet2380]

We were less than 10 people from the front gate for rope drop, and we had about a 15 minute wait for Hagrids. Score!

[@RhodeIslandDude]

A J, can you do videos from sea world, and bush gardens ?

[@Ratchetfan321]

Honestly couldve split this between studios and islands. Missing some bangers

[@karishields3866]

Popeyes’s is definitely one of the best. It helps to ride swim wear and bring a change of clothes. We love to ride it multiple times along with Ripsaw Falls and Jurassic River Adventure this way we get our fill of water rides before changing.

[@corinneferrarolam5101]

E.T. For the win! Thank you! This is my favorite ride too. When I ride this, I feel like I went to the green planet, and I finally understand why ET wanted to go home so bad. It’s like the sequel to the movie! Also, big love to the practical sets and old school animatronics.

[@chrisvoltaire620]

I love Hagrid 🔥🔥🔥

[@adamabdo8636]

I’m with make a wish and this is my wish I’ve been watching videos about Disney and universal for months and I don’t go till may

[@ThatOneOtherFangirl]

Long time Spidey ride fan here: it's a wonderful experience and I'm happy it made it to the list! And I recommend MIB for anyone that likes Villaincon!!

[@LauraWright-x1p]

I went on the ET ride when it was linked to a breakfast, you bought the breakfast and got early entry onto the ride.... Only thing is I was soooo scared of ET! I didn't open my eyes once. I was 4.

[@crazyaj7017]

This whole time I thought the amazing adventures of spider man closed in Orlando so I was confused to see it here and after some research I was super happy to see it wasn't closed in Orlando. The past 2 months I've thought that only Japan had It now but turns out it was the opposite way around

[@vorticity4]

Very curious to know what personal belongings are NOT permitted on rides. Can I take a POV camera? e.g., GoPro on any ride? Cell phone?

[@h4rry-04]

Wooot!!! More universal please!!

[@Vway1501]

@dfbguide Love the Universal Orlando content for sure! Any chance you could review The Palm at Hard Rock, or Bice at Portofino Bay? I was thinking about checking those out next time I stay at UO. Thanks in advance for any info!

[@borntowin6591]

I’m in universal watching this rn

[@t_cheating8239]

Universal rocks this!!

[@VICTORLUIS24]

You are the best AJ. Greetings from Caracas Venezuela.

[@kristinavalcarce2404]

Actually, I would ride that Seuss ride just because they don't have it at Universal Hollywood!

[@annamarie4431]

I love forbidden journey it’s definitely my favourite ride in any park ever

[@AnthonyGarcia-dr8nz]

I remember for velocicoaster, after the second launch and you reach the top hill, I looked at my girl and just yelled "oh baby " in despair.... 2nd best coaster I've ever been on... Nitro still does it for me at 1st

[@loganhargens4004]

Good thing.I'm going to universal on sunday orlando here I come

[@crazybear5475]

Headed there in four months. Already made our reservations

[@fullenw]

Universal coasters are awesome!

[@jamesmarshall6619]

Love the Quincy appearance at the beginning. Very Where's Waldoish.

[@mitchellberhoveren7638]

There is no question! Velocicoaster is the best ride in Universal!

[@knobbynah]

Velocicoaster, Best roller coaster ever man.

[@Eva_06339]

I’ve been to universal and island of adventure 3 times on the same month and I’m going again next month on my birthday, I really love universal parks, my favorites from universal studios are the revenge of the mummy, jimmy fallon, transformers, fast and furious and Harry Potter and the escape from gringotts 😅 and my favorites from island of adventure are spider man, velocicoster, Dudley do’rights ripsaw falls, hagrids and Jurassic park river adventure, when I tell you I’m obsessed i mean it 😄

[@hungerheroes1]

AJ...another terrific Theme Park video ;but afraid as much as i luv Harry Potter Films & The Mummy franchse I am not a roller coaster afficiando! Too much motion sickness for me & my wife. However would still be interested in visting Universal Orlando sometime...years ago my only visit to their Southern Cal Park went well & really I enjoyed the the ET attraction. Afraid I am stricken w a Pixie Dust addiction which will always be my main issue...!

[@nicholasmorre7371]

I just went earlier this month! my top ten would be 1. Hagrid's 2. Mummy 3. Velocicoaster 4. E.T. 5. Forbidden Journey 6. Gringotts 7. Hulk 8. Jurassic Park River 9. Spider-Man 10. MIB Poseidon's Fury was a top five attraction for me but they shut it down. Boo!

[@AustinJenkins-mx8yc]

I’m going in 25 days so excited 😆

[@riondrius]

King Kong should be on this list !! So underrated !! I love the King Kong ride, highly recommend !!

[@broformers6433]

1. Transformers (I have a bias, but still a great ride) 2. Hagrids 3. Forbidden Journey 4. Mummy 5. Spiderman 6. Gringotts 7. Velocicoaster 8. Jurassic Park 9. MIB 10. ET

[@largol33t12]

I understand that people are surprised to see a Marvel land in Universal. They'll be thinking, Doesn't Disney own the rights? Well, that is 100% true. I did some research and there is some weird ex post-facto clause in the contract. If Universal maintains the land without expanding it with more Marvel attractions, they are within their rights to keep it up. So there's no real danger of the entire thing being demolished if the Mouse sends an angry cease and desist letter... The contract would probably have to be taken to claims court and resettled with a new one drawn up.

[@ChickenPerm]

#1 Dudley Do-Right Ripsaw Falls

[@dfbbreea]

Justice for High in the Sky Seuss Trolley. 😤

[@donray2435]

Should do a video on Universal Studios INFORMER MEETUP... not many know about it

[@XxJasqerxX]

I’m on my way to universal for the first time ever in a week, i been watchin you to learn what to do and not to do lol

[@roccomacchia9125]

Popeye's is awesome. My family ride it multiple times in a row, since you know, we're already soaking wet, might as well enjoy it. I always say "if you don't get off this ride sopping wet, the ride broke."

[@graigzappia9542]

Y'all I might go in febuary should I be scared to go on coasters?(spoilers are fine)

[@shadowghost1065]

I was just there for the first time. Three rides I think deserve an honorable mention are the Transformers ride and Simpsons Krusty Coaster(both similar to the Spiderman ride) and the MIB ride! My favorite rides by far are the Mummy returns and Harry Potter's Forbidden Journey!!

[@adamcordell7750]

10:34 I really really wished that one time when “Marc with a C” told the team member his name that ET was going to say it verbatim… ET: “Mark with a C…” Was it too much to ask for? lol

[@Oliver.tomasz.whalen.]

I am this year wooho going to universal and Disney

[@lemonboi5833]

I’m going there in a couple of minutes! (if the weather doesn’t drastically change and start thunder storming 😁)

[@chloeditstrangerthings]

I got stuck on the Spider-Man ride and I was on the velocicoaster when it went backwards at the drop!

[@MackClark]

Men In Black is a great dark ride for everyone! Fun and interactive

[@user-fq3yk5il8z]

When i get back down there the FIRST ride i am gonna go on is the Velocicoaster

[@Snowmanmug3]

My group and I hit hagrids right at the END of the day and we waited less than 20 min!

[@marcosrafaelapontecastro871]

Oooo😮 I love it!

[@hollybabyyy]

Nothing beats the mummy

[@Kenny-vr14]

This gonna be good that I watched cause am going for my birthday 🥳

[@elizabethham9372]

I am on my way right now to universal

[@kathleenbeebe2334]

I have to mention Simpsons (because nobody else is)!!! Justice for Simpsons!! Also Transformers, rip saw falls, flight of the Hippogriff. I agree with the list except for ET sorry

[@metallicnole4514]

Forbidden journey is the most nauseating ride I've been on

[@elizabethvanvliet2380]

Sidecar all the way!

[@disneystarmichaeltownes]

I Went To Universal For My Gradbash in 2022

[@SeoulQu-mc7br]

One of my personal favorites is definitely the Simpson's ride

[@chloejones9647]

lol the “chicken exit” 🤣🤣

[@MerryDolphin-xq1de]

Men in Black ride?

[@cookingwithhistory6694]

Go to Hagrids at lunch time.

[@BethGranger-f5k]

I am watching this a week before I go to universal studios

[@Perriandhorses]

Omg im going to universal for my feild trip and im going on tuesday

[@IAFB]

Transformers

[@Silver_star852]

Universal has a lot more feelings of nostalgia, like my father, Transformers, my mom, The Simpsons, and 80s and 90s cartoons, my sister, Also, old cartoons, my brother, Spider man, and marvel. And me, Harry Potter, Universal is right for me and my family.

[@evs.ur.shawty]

Dudley doo right ripsaw falls TEHE

[@jeffstanley6013]

I like Universal's coasters, but it seems like they have so many "movie" rides where your vehicle is just moving from one screen to the next. One or two is fine, but don't overdo it.

[@broformers6433]

Be that as it may they still have some great practical rides. Or rides that blend the two

[@GuardianofTanuki]

Wait, hulk over velocicoaster??!?!?!?!?!!! That's a CRIME!!!!!!

[@natashageddes8759]

Unpopular opinions as someone who can’t do coasters and loved 4d rides: ET is the most overstimulating ride ever, jimmy fallon is so overhated when it’s so fun, the Simpson ride is one of the best, escape from Gringots was actually quite intense and forbidden journey is the best non coaster ride in any Florida park. But again, I have very different opinions to everyone else

[@user-fq3yk5il8z]

Personally I'm a fan of the Velocicoaster

[@jvoet5206]

I love ET!
