Disney World is great….but don’t forget about Universal Orlando Resort!
Without question, Universal Orlando Resort is overshadowed by its neighbor and direct competitor: Walt Disney World. This shouldn’t come as a surprise because Disney is much larger and more established.
For those of us who’ve been to Disney World, we know how magical these vacations can be. Everyone should plan to spend at least 3 or 4 days at Disney to get the full experience. That said, let’s not forget about Universal Orlando right down the road! Universal Orlando, after all, is a theme park and entertainment resort complex that certainly holds its own weight and offers dozens of unique experiences and thrilling attractions that you won’t find at Disney.
Universal Orlando has two theme parks (Universal’s Island of Adventure and Universal Studios Florida), one water park (Volcano Bay), an entertainment complex (Universal CityWalk Orlando), as well as many spectacular on-site hotels and resorts. And any discussion of Universal Orlando Resort would be remiss without mentioning The Wizarding World of Harry Potter themed environments.
With that said, let’s now look at these Universal Studios Orlando Resort maps. A Universal Orlando Resort map will help you visualize the layout of the park so you will be able to navigate around the park with ease. This page will provide you with expandable PDF maps of Universal Orlando Resort to assist you in the planning stage of your trip. We hope this information will give you a better sense of where you are and where you’re going as you arrive at the resort!
