The Mario Park and Harry Potter theme park are awesome! In addition, the prices of the snack bar inside are actually similar to those outside the park. You can buy food inside.

Ticket transfer is fast and, above all, it is good because you can enter 1+1 so you can come back and enjoy it one more time if you can't enjoy it all. In addition, they give you a free ESIM as a free gift so you don't have to buy an ESIM separately, which is reasonable.

It is very convenient to use after purchase. You can directly use the QR Code to enter the entrance of Universal Studios Hollywood. It is cheaper than buying it in the park on the same day.
