A Comparison Of Walt Disney Resort And Universal Orlando

Orlando is home to some of the world’s top tourist attractions. But, there are more than 110 different attractions to sample across the state, per the Florida Attractions Association. These include the iconic theme parks and other destinations such as gardens, historic sites and, yes, water parks.

It’s no doubt that creating a family oriented theme park based on popular, beloved cartoon characters and imagination was a good idea. From Cinderella’s castle to the famous Main Street, U.S.A, there’s something extraordinary lying around every corner. Walt Disney World, other wise known as “the happiest place on earth”, or the place “where dreams come true”, was founded by a man with a dream of creating a place where children and parents could spend time together while making amazing memories. However, this extravagant amusement park is only one of the major accomplishments of Walt Disney.

Universal Studios Florida has three parks, Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, and Volcano Bay. While, Walt Disney World has six parks, Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney's Hollywood Studios, Disney's Animal Kingdom, Blizzard Beach, and Typhoon Lagoon. Theme parks with more parks allow their customers to be entertained longer than theme parks with less parks. Disney World also has over 290 characters, and Universal Studios only has only about 100 characters. Universal photographers take about 7,500 pictures daily, and according to USA TODAY, Walt Disney World photographers take about 20,000 pictures a day. This is helpful for families when they want to get a group picture but can find anybody to take it for them, also the photographers can take pictures where most people can't, like on the rides. So, Disney World does a lot better job at having more parks, characters, and photographers, then Universal Studios Florida

Another very unique attraction that Disney's Hollywood Studios offers is the Toy Story Mania ride. Expanding on the Buzz Lightyear ride at Magic Kingdom this is the perfect attraction to bring the whole family on. The interactive element of competing against each other make this ride a repeat favorite.

As a child I enjoyed going to amusement parks. I enjoyed spending the weekends and afternoons with my family going to an amusement park. Amusement parks are something magical full of fascination and excitement for kids and grown ups. But there are some things that ruin that moment of enjoying a day in the afternoon in our favorite amusement park. Disneyland is greater than Universal Studios Hollywood because of their rides, waiting times, the prices.

To start off, one major similarity is both Disney World and Adventureland have specific characters that build the atmosphere of their theme parks. For example, Disney World has; Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Donald and Daisy Duck, Cinderella, Snow White, Belle and many more beloved Disney characters! As for Adventureland has a well-known character, the Saint Bernard dog. All the characters that "live in" their theme park attract children's attention very easily. Children are quick to recognize Disney Worlds characters from TV shows they have watched on Disney Channel. The Saint Bernard at Adventureland is a welcoming, fun character to Adventureland, which attracts thousands of tourists. Both theme park's characters endow the same qualities and draw vast amounts of tourist to both of their theme parks!

In order to ensure the enjoyment of all guests, theme parks must establish entertainment and activities for people of all ages. When Walt Disney World was created, the co-founders intended to bring magic to all age groups. To ensure this, they created a plethora of attractions to entertain all types of people. For children, the park has low thrill rides that include Toy Story Mania, an interactive ride featuring the characters Buzz Lightyear and Woody, and Tomorrowland Speedway, a ride for children to drive miniature race cars (McNesby, 2017). Children may also enjoy character greetings and autograph signings from characters like Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Goofy, and Cinderella. These characters can be found wandering the park or reservations may be made to dine with

The Walt Disney Parks and Resorts is a product line offered by the conglomerate Walt Disney World. This line offers intangible products only.

People come all over the world to see rides, characters, food, and entertainment of the place. I remember going to Disney world 2 years ago. It was my very first time. Seeing the bid castles, a lot of food, and seeing the characters. The four theme parks are, Magic kingdom, Epcot, Animal kingdom,

Universal studios is better than Disney world in many ways. There are odds and ends between Universal and Disney. There are some good things about Universal and some bad things, same as Disney there are some good things and some bad things.

Have you ever wanted to experience your favorite movie? Well, at Universal Studios you can do just that. Their rides are as close you can get to being in your favorite movies.

Universal Orlando Resort consist of three theme parks, six hotels, all providing different levels of service. According to Trip Advisor, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter ranked the number one theme park attraction with a five-star rating. Universals’ Islands of Adventure came in second in the best theme park category, with a 4.5-star rating (Trip Advisor, p. 2). I think it is hard to give a theme park a star rating because theme parks are based on mass production rather than individual attention. However, the hotels at Universal Orlando Resort can be based more on star ratings such as Lowe’s Portofino Bay and Hard Rock Hotel are rated 4-5-star hotels providing an exceptional high level of quality service, several restaurants on site, concierge services, swimming pool, gym, and on duty staff at all times. While Loews Royal Pacific and Sapphire Falls Resorts are considered preferred hotels, Universal's Cabana Bay Beach Resort and Aventura Hotel are considered prime value

2. Disney world is an amusement theme park that provides many options to the public.

The Walt Disney Company Parks and Resorts strive to be the leader in innovative and creative family entertainment in the world. The mission of The Walt Disney Company Parks and Resorts is to provide “magical” experiences to all guests that visit our Parks and Resorts.

Families have different preferences to what they like either fantasy or real animal experience. Some families like to bring back childhood experiences at Disneyland. While others seem to like the adventures at SeaWorld and getting that 1 on 1 experience with wildlife. Both amusement parks are alike with one another because both parks offer an amazing shows and spectaculars to see, but both of those parks are not the same thing.
