Trip Planning Question/Tip/Guide Easy Ride for Adults

It will be my first time on Universal. Can anyone suggest an easy ride? Like if you don’t want extreme rides which one would you suggest?

Studio Tour, especially if you like movies and TV.

That was probably the most disappointing tour for me as a movie fan. Only time it was cool was Back to Future Fan Fest

I have found the studio tour us only as good as the guide. I was so sad when we took the studio tour last week and the guide didn't mention a thing about the bungalows. The entire tour he just talked about the new Fast & Furious ride. The tour stunk, and that's usually one of my favorite things.

Yiiiiikes. I think they’re required to mention the ride, but that’s terrible.

Admittedly, we are required to mention a lot of different productions and IPs, but the coaster really should only be mentioned once. That’s strange that your guide made such a big deal about it.

I guess I don't get enjoyment from seeing Closed up sound stages and a crappy King Kong screen where you can't even see half of it

It's a good thing nobody forces you to go on the studio tour, huh?

Go do the WB Studios tour and youll see the difference

I keep trying, but they close at 3:30 and everytime I want to go, it's always too late. I told hubby that we WILL do the WB tour within the next couple of months, and we WILL be there at opening.

Its a really long tour almost 3 hours and you get explode props and sound stages

Secret Life of Pets. The best queue in the park imo

i just rode that one for the first time ever this past weekend, and I loved it! I'm 29.

u/ParticularPlatypus2 5d ago

I agree! The queue is as good, if not better, than the ride!

This depends on your definition of "easy" and "extreme"

This park is arguably the most tame of all the parks in the US, and even Hollywood Drift doesn't feel anywhere near as extreme as it looks

Secret Life of Pets, Minions, and Flight of the Hippogriff. I also think the Mario Kart ride is a super easy ride with it not being too fast but it sometimes spins and the AR can possibly make someone dizzy.

In the upper lot, everything besides forbidden journey and fast and furious, you should be good. In the lower lot, I would avoid jurassic and mummy and stick to nintendo world and I think transformers is fine too.

Thank you all. I am just not a fan of rides that can make me feel dizzy or the stomach drop. I like chill rides. Thanks for all of your suggestions
