The attraction is very fun, providing a mix of simulated adventure and well-created storytelling. Of course, fans will enjoy every detail of the toy, but it is interesting in itself, without depending on the franchise. What if I'm not a Harry Potter fan?Įven those who are not fans of Harry Potter have much to enjoy in this attraction. It's like being inside a Harry Potter movie, with Quidditch, characters, dragons, spells and all the cool stuff in the franchise. In addition, the tour itself is also very worthwhile. It is true that the lines are long to visit the tour (so it may be interesting to use the Universal Express Pass for this attraction), but the whole interaction structure in the queues is worth it. One of the magical things of the attraction is to bring the world of Harry Potter to life and put the visitor inside. It is not for nothing that we set up our entire itinerary of 1 day at Islands of Adventure around it. With all that said, is it worth going to Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey?įor anyone who is a Harry Potter fan, this is one of the most important attractions in Orlando. In addition, there are also some special effects to make the result even better. The attraction mixes mechanical movements to create the sensation of the movement made on the projection screen. It's quite an adventure!Īmong the characters that participate in it are Hagrid, Harry Potter, Ron, Hermione and others. What we will tell you is that the course involves a Quidditch match, running away from a dragon and facing Dementors. We don't want to give too many spoilers on the route of the attraction itself because it consists of a kind of interactive cinema. Then we pass the Defense Against Dark Arts room, where we see Harry, Ron and Hermione.Ī nice detail from this moment is that Ron tries to cast a spell, but it goes wrong and a lot of fun special effects (like falling snow) actually appear in the queue. The first one is Dumbledore's room, where he is there to welcome guests and speak to them (in a video, of course). Inside, visitors will be able to find some replicas of objects from the films, such as the Mirror of Ojesed and talking portraits.Īs we move forward in line, we will pass by famous places in Hogwarts castle. The first step in the queue is to pass outside Hogwarts castle, including the Herbology greenhouses. Therefore, the queue area of this attraction is gigantic and very decorated, with several events and moments to make everything more fun. But, if it is to stay in line, let it be at least in one like this.Ĭonsidering that the attraction is one of the most visited in the park, Universal thought of setting up a queue that is pleasant to stay. Nobody likes to stand in line at theme parks.

Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey & #8211 Row To live up to the attraction, we have to divide the conversation into two topics: the queue and the attraction itself.
#Harry potter and the forbidden journey series
The project shows Universal's dedication not only to Islands of Adventures, but with fans of the series as well. Inside, the attraction of Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey is something really incredible. So, in a way, the Forbidden Journey is just that, but with a lot more technology. You know that famous video that rolls on Facebook of a father with a daughter on his lap, in front of a TV? Does he move the child along the path of the roller coaster on television?
#Harry potter and the forbidden journey simulator
This robotic arm moves the cart sideways, according to the simulator video, to give the sensation of movement and adventure. One of the coolest features of the attraction is that it uses a robotic arm that controls the cart where the users are. It may seem strange, but in a way, such an attraction is kind of a mix of ghost train, simulators and roller coaster. It gets its name from walking in a dark room, with the cart walking along rails and simulator panels on the walls. The Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey is a dark ride attraction.


One of the first questions most people have about Forbidden Journey is about its nature.Īfter all, it is not a roller coaster, but neither is it a simulator. Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey strollers
