Walt Disney World Versus Universal Studios Orlando Orlando, Florida is the most popular tourist destination for families and teens seeking theme parks. From the time I was a little girl, the most exciting part of the year was when my mom would reveal our summer trip.

Both companies raise prices for popular days and parks, and lower the cost depending on the length of stay. For instance, it would be a bad idea to go to Magic Kingdom in the middle of the summer as the prices are at their peak. To top off a great day, each Disney park performs a magical show involving fireworks, characters, and often lights. Similarly, at the end of the day, Universal Studios has a show on their central lake including fireworks and

    Even though all of these rides have the same theme they are all completely different. Overall I think the best one is Disneyland California because that is the original Disneyland it is bigger, and even though it is a lot more crowded it is worth all of the long waits in lines and crowded areas.

I had really like that in disneyland paris…
