Hi
I just want to write something but this podcast is very informative I like it so far
Followed your instructions and got to open the park!
It was our first day at Universal. We followed your instructions for getting to the park early and going to an empty turnstile (everyone else lined up on the same two). We got to do the ceremonial opening of the park and got a free photo package! Great information for planning our trip! Thank you!
Thank you for this!
I am planning a trip to WDW for 9 people in July 2019 (between the ages of 5 and 58) and I was more terrified than excited! Now that I have found Go Informed I can't wait and have an actual plan that includes more than just a hotel reservation! I am confident that the children, teens, and adults will all get the most out of is quite possibly a once in a lifetime trip for some of them! XOXO
