Hello from Australia!

We’ve done every Universal in the world!

My son and I have now done every universal in the world!

Here are some tips for Beijing Universal

1. We caught the bullet train after being at Disneyland Shanghai. Very easy. We did first class and booked online. Took 4.5hrs.

2. We took a taxi from the train station to Universal. Took about 60 min and was roughly $35 aud.

3. We stayed at the Universal Studios Grand Hotel which is right at the entry of the park. I highly highly recommend.

4. We did three days and could easily be done in 2 days

5. We didn’t get the express pass because we had the disability pass (my son is legally blind due to brain cancer). You get this at Guest services at the entry. You need proof of disability and they were so kind.

6. The express pass would be beneficial on busy days. Most rides were 40 min and the park was fairly quiet. The Deceptor coaster was max 5 min every day! We rode this 12 times over three days. The G force blows your mind. No drops but 11 loops and corkscrews.

7. The Jurassic world ride was insane and amazing

8. We ate at Hammonds restaurant for lunch and highly recommend.

9. We ate dinner at the Chocolate emporium at universal city walk each night once the park closed

10. We used a Wise travel card and you need to ensure you bring the physical card, because they only use Alipay and do not use Google or Apple Pay

11. Have Google translator as really no one spoke English

12. We averaged 22km walking a day, so wear comfy shoes

13. Harry Potter world was identical to Japan and LA

– and amazing. You don’t need special entry – you come and go as you please

14. The How to train your dragon stage show was one of the best I’ve seen – all in Chinese, but you can understand what’s happening

15. You need your passport to get into the park every day and will have your face scanned

16. We booked through Klook as I didn’t have Chinese approved cards. I printed the vouchers but they had our passes already on their system with our passport info.

17. The hotel has 60 min early entry which meant we did the Harry Potter rides over 6 times before the park opened

18. It was an amazing park – smaller than Florida but very similar to the others

19. We felt exceptionally safe and had the most outstanding time

20. Oh and Kung Fu Panda land was so so cool!
