If you are going to park hop, this is the way to do it. The detail and design is top notch and the experience is different depending on where you are traveling. Very cool for Harry Potter fans I would recommend experiencing it at least once if you can, and if you can't your overall Harry Potter experience will still be amazing.
Pros:
A relaxing and fun way to travel between parksCons:

This is my favorite of the Harry Potter rides. The theming is spot on for giving you the feeling of being in a British train station and riding on a British train. Unlike the other Harry Potter rides which are challenging for the motion-sensitive, this one can be enjoyed by all ages. You need a multi-park pass to ride this attraction as it goes between Universal and Islands of Adventure. The window images are different on each one way trip.
Pros:
good theming, mildCons:

This whole experience lives up to a Potter fan's dream. The whole experience, including the queue, is so immersive and fun. It sucks how expensive it is to get the park-hopping ticket but I really do feel like it's worth it to go back and forth on the Hogwarts Express.
Pros:
Incredible themeing, makes park hopping convenient, two different experiences depending on which park you are coming fromCons:

They did a really good job with the train and the experience while riding between parks. I wish the ride from Hogsmeade to Diagon Alley was just as good but I would still ride it every time I go.
Pros:
Don't have to walk between parks, you get to ride on the Hogwarts Express!Cons:
