What an amazing ride!! The queue is sooo immersive! All the Easter eggs are there and you may have to go through it several times to spot them all. It can get a bit nauseating for people with weak stomachs (don't eat before going on). The mix of screens and sets is great, the ride vehicle is great...
just an immersive ride into Harry Potter.

Pros:

Queue!

Cons:

Nauseating for some.

This is a really fun attraction! The first time I rode it, I knew literally nothing about Harry Potter, and it was still fun. Before my next visit, I watched the first few HP movies and enjoyed the ride so much more. This ride is very immersive and makes you feel like you're in the movies alongside the characters. I would definitely ride this again.

Pros:

Excellent theming. Thrilling, but not too scary for most.

Cons:

Could cause motion sickness. Could be a bit scary for younger kids. The ride definitely jerks you around a bit.

I love the ride, I rode it the first time a few weeks ago and I came back today to ride it. ( I have a pass holder) and it was just as awesome and to be honest no problems. (Now this doesn’t have to do with Harry Potter And The Forbidden Journey.) When I was there today everything was closing an hour before the park and we were trying to find something to eat and nothing we even tried both parks!

Pros:

Everything about the ride!

Cons:

Food closes before the park!

Pros:

Great theming in the ride and the queue, Inside Hogwarts most people's dream school.

Cons:

Dementor

Probably the most immersive Harry Potter ride. You get to walk through the iconic castle and see some of the characters before you even get on the ride. The ride itself is very thrilling, but can cause motion sickness for some people.

Pros:

Unique ride system. Harry Potter fans dream.

Cons:

Motion sickness for some.

If you like HP you will love this immersive ride. You are able to relate the stories and movies you have read and seen to the ride. Classic

Pros:

Very real to the story with the characters and the environment.

Cons:

Too short - needed more time to experience the HP world.

A must for any Potter fan. The line is worth walking through. Amazing props to see. Must ride at least once even though it made me sick.

Pros:

The line if it isn't too long of a wait

Cons:

Motion sickness, motion sickness, and motion sickness

Personally I think this is the best ride at Universal Orlando. The creators spent a significant amount of time to make sure everyone can enjoy the ride multiple times and it feels as if you have been inserted into the movies.

Pros:

Coolest queue I have ever seen. Actually would wait in line and not ride the ride as the line goes through multiple Hogwarts scenes and very interactive. Can spot something new in the ride every time you ride.

Cons:

Scary scenes for small kids that involve spiders and dementors. Lots of motion so can induce motion sickness. Does not fit many tall people. Ride operators will stop you multiple times to make sure you can fit the ride.
