Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando are both very epic experiences, but they are very different parks. While they share some of the same attractions, they offer very different experiences overall (you can read about all the differences here). Hollywood is about the Hollywood/Los Angeles movie experience, so you may wonder what rides are at this park and what the height requirements are if you are traveling with little ones. Be sure to bookmark this article because we’ve put together this little guide just for you!
Insider Tip: The Studio Tour (not offered in Orlando) is an awesome experience that does not have a height requirement! This attraction is located in the Upper Lot of the park, across from the escalators leading to the Lower Lot.
