So an update from my business partner, Tina, who is currently 'working' over at Universal, Orlando 🤭

'Today we headed off to Volcano Bay, and with temperatures hitting a scorching 35°C, the pools were a very welcome relief! 🌞💦

We took on the Aqua Coaster along with some other awesome rides before stopping for lunch, then spent some time relaxing on the lazy river such a great way to cool down and unwind.

In the early afternoon, we left Volcano Bay and headed over to Cabana Bay Beach Resort for a site inspection. With its fun retro 1950s and 60s theme, colourful design, spacious family accommodation, and fantastic facilities, it's easy to see why it's such a popular choice for guests visiting Universal Orlando.

After a quick change, we headed out for dinner at Jake’s American Bar at Loews Royal Pacific Resort. The food was fantastic and it was the perfect way to recharge before our evening plans.

We then made our way back to Universal Studios Florida for the nighttime show, but not before a quick ride on Minion Land’s Villain-Con Minion Blast, a brilliant interactive shooting game which, I’m delighted to say, I won! 😎🏆

The perfect ending to the day was watching CineSational: A Symphonic Spectacular. Wow what a show! The combination of fountains, music, projections, lighting and fireworks was absolutely breathtaking. I would urge anyone heading to Universal Studios to make time to stay and watch it one evening – it’s an experience you won’t forget! ✨🎆

Another fantastic day making magical memories! ❤️

Happy to help make wishes come true 👌

The Disney (and Orlando obvs) Queen has arrived 👌!! ☺️

Touchdown in Florida for an incredible Universal Fam trip with the one and only Attraction World.

We flew into Melbourne with TUI from a very impressive looking Manchester Airport, and the excitement started before we even took off. The whole group was in high spirits and buzzing for the week ahead.

After landing in Melbourne it was a smooth one hour transfer up to Universals Terra Luna Resort, our base for this adventure. A quick change then straight out to explore.

✨Aventira hotel with its amazing views from the 17th floor rooftop bar

✨Sapphire Falls which offers some fantastic places to eat and unwind

By 10pm local time (3am UK time) we finally fell into bed, ready to recharge for a scorching day at Universal fun ahead.

If you’d love first hand experience advice and tips for planning your own Universal Orlando escape get in touch and let’s start creating your perfect trip

I'm already seeing a lot of posts about people being turned away at the airport as their passport isn’t valid for travel.

When you book with me, I give you all of the up to date information about travel requirements and ask for passports at time of booking; that way, any issues are dealt with in plenty of time.

So what do you need to know?

✔️ Check the FCDO advice for up to date information on the country/countries that you are travelling to

📆 Check the issue date and the expiry date, the issue date is particularly important for Europe

✔️ Make sure the photo page and chip are undamaged

❌ Make sure the name on your flight ticket EXACTLY matches your passport

🛑 Children’s passports often run out sooner than you expect, so double check theirs too

If you are unsure what you need I will point you to the official guidance.
