I hate roller coasters but I can handle little rides lol. Tried one at Disney which was Thunder Mountain and I never plan to go back on it. I want to go to Universal Studios to check it out but if it s completely just coasters and that s it then I don t want to waste my money. So are there other rides that are not coasters at all that I could ride or no?
I really don t know where people get the idea that Universal Orlando is mostly coasters. There are only 4 big coasters in the 2 parks: Revenge of The Mummy, Hulk, DD Ice, DD Fire. There are 2 kiddie coasters that are comparable to Goofy s Barnstormer at MK: Flying Unicorn (which is closed now and is being re themed for the Wizarding World of Harry Potter) and Woody Woodpecker.ETA:Below is the list of attractions in IOA. Out of 23 rides, only 3 are big coasters. How does 3/23 =mostly? I would do the same thing for USO, but you get my point. USO only has one big coaster.The Amazing Adventures of Spider-ManDoctor Doom s Fearfall Storm Force AccelatronIncredible Hulk Coaster- COASTERDudley Do-Right s Ripsaw FallsPopeye Bluto s Bilge-Rat BargesMat Hoffman s Crazy Freakin Stunt ShowMe Ship, The OliveJurassic Park Discovery CenterJurassic Park River AdventureCamp JurassicPteranodon FlyersThe Mystic FountainThe Eighth Voyage of SindbadDueling Dragons- 2 COASTERSThe Flying Unicorn- kiddie coasterIf I Ran The ZooCaro-Seuss-ElHigh in the Sky Seuss Trolley Train RideThe Cat In The HatOne Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue FishGo ahead and give me thumbs down for telling the truth. 3/23 does not equal mostly ETA: USO does have 2 big coasters. I forgot that Rip Ride Rock-it recently opened. However even my coaster hating husband loves revenge of the mummy.
There are only 2 rides/rollercoaster which you would not want to do at Universal Studios (Revenge of The Mummy and Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit). MIB is a mild ride where you zap aliens with a laser gun, great fun, take a boat ride around Amity on the Jaws ride, gentle ride on a suspended cycle through dark woods in ET and at Disaster you can become a star in the movie!The new Simpsons Ride is a simulated coaster ride which projects the images onto huge IMAX screens, to immerse you into the cartoon action. I loved it but can make you feel a bit motion sick.There are lots of shows with special effects like Terminator and Shrek which are amazing. I wouldn t go to Orlando without a few trips to Universal Studios, definitely one of my favorite parks in Orlando.Have fun
Universal by no means is an exclusively coaster park. There are still quite a few entertaining attractions that offer mild thrills. If even Big Thunder Mountain scared you, the rides to avoid would be: Hulk, Dueling Dragons, Rip Ride RockIt Coaster, and The Mummy. Attractions like Spiderman, Men in Black, and Jaws all offer milder thrills. I would suggest doing lots of online research before you come and maybe even watching YouTube videos of the rides.
Universal studios is shows mainly. Islands of Adventure which is their sister park is mainly roller coasters and water rides. If Thunder Mountain freaked you out, skip IOA. You could check out tripadvisor.com a free site, type Orlando in the search box and find the travel forum there for more info on Uni and WDW.
