My Trip Report – Epic Universe Is Amazing… But Disney Still Feels Like Home – Ep. 670

After more than 20 years away from Universal Orlando, I finally returned to experience the much-talked-about Epic Universe—and wow, what a trip it was. This week, I’m sharing a special crossover episode with my friends Dave and Toni-Ann from the Disney Crush Podcast as we talk through my first impressions of Epic Universe, Universal Orlando, and the Disney portion of our anniversary trip.

In This Episode Highlights include: My first visit to Epic Universe Staying at Universal’s Stella Nova Resort Why the immersive lands at Epic are getting so much attention Honest comparisons between Universal and Disney Returning to Port Orleans Riverside Flower & Garden Festival food and entertainment Using Lightning Lane and the Wait Magic service A preview ride of the new Soarin’ Over America Why Disney still feels like home The Big Takeaway Epic Universe is absolutely impressive and raises the bar in many ways. But after spending time at both destinations on the same trip, I was reminded why Walt Disney World continues to hold a special place in my heart. Sometimes the biggest takeaway from a vacation isn’t a ride or attraction—it’s sharing new experiences with people you love and spending time with friends who enjoy the same geeky passions we do.
