A lot of people don't know that Universal Studios Orlando has a side gate entrance located by the Blue Man Group stadium and behind Hard Rock Cafe in Citywalk. Pictured here you can see it is located right below the Hollywood Rip Ride Rocket. This entrance and exit is a great way to hit Islands of Adventure, Hard Rock, Toothsome or Blue Man Group. I don't care for the Hogwarts Express, so I...

Icon Park located in the heart of I-Drive is the walkable entertainment and dining destination and is celebrating this year’s Fourth of July with an all-new event.

The debut event, Icon Park Lights Up I-Drive Orlando, will invite guests to celebrate the holiday with a two-day Fourth of July celebration.

The skies will be lit both nights with...

Orlando is expensive, and that little mouse over there keeps raising the price each year on single day tickets. Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode when George father said: "you can drop a grand in Disneyworld like that."

We get a lot of questions about breakfast options on I-Drive and Universal. Universal has some great options, but they charge an arm and a leg. The new Surfside Inn is opening on IDrive Orlando this month and directly across the street is this Black Angus Steakhouse, and they have a breakfast buffet for 7.99. Now don't get me wrong this isn't the greatest food you will eat, but the value is...

The free brews will be available at the park starting Saturday, May 25 through September 2, 2019 from 10:30 a.m. to one hour before park close. Complimentary beer will be available to guests 21 years of age and older. Guests can visit The Patio Bar next to Mama’s Pretzel Kitchen and receive one complimentary 14-ounce domestic beer per day.

We noticed business come and go in the Pointe Orlando area of I-Drive. The outside mall itself is usually a ghost town for shopping compared to the other options in Orlando. The Pointe Orlando shopping consists of Tommy Hilfiger outlet to a signature candle shop. Not a lot of tourists are headed to Pointe Orlando to walk around and shop, and...

Dads may not be into all of the attention and compliments that come with celebrating Father's Day, but they all want to be appreciated for everything they do. So, give that special guy a day - or a weekend - to remember by treating him to a stay and a dad-style meal at one of Rosen Hotels & Resorts' stellar properties in Orlando.

Whether he's a new dad, a veteran dad or has been...

Universal Orlando Resort has created its most life-like animated figure for the most highly themed, immersive coaster experience yet, Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure – opening June 13. And it’s none other than Hogwarts gamekeeper and Care of Magical Creatures professor himself – Hagrid.

Guests will come face-to-face with Hagrid during their journey as his hyper-realistic...

Andy's Frozen Custard took a shot at International Drive Orlando and failed. We have seen Dinosaur attraction go extinct and even winghouse with hot girls serving beer couldn't survive certain areas of I-Drive Orlando. However, other places of I-Drive business thrive. You can't discriminate with housing to...

If you remember the old Don Pablos located at 8717 International Drive Orlando, FL 32819 - it was a high brick building sharing the same parking lot as Boston Lobster Feast. The building has been transformed into the new Mia's Kitchen Italian Restaurant concept. Mia's is now open on IDrive Orlando, and...

Universal opened the new Hagrids Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure on Thursday, June 13. The Hagrids ride is one of the most anticipated ride openings for Universal in a long time. The last ride opening was Fast and Furious, and that ride is awful, so maybe they are due for a good trip. The old Dueling Dragons roller coaster area in Islands of Adventure has been transformed into this...
