Height Requirements at Universal Orlando Resort

Ride height requirements and safety at Universal Orlando Resort is top priority. While the attractions have been designed so that the maximum number of guests can enjoy them, please be aware that many attractions have restrictions and guidelines to make sure guests have a safe, enjoyable experience. They include language about the nature and dynamics of the experience, as well as guest height, medical conditions or other factors that should be considered before riding.

Many attractions use safety restraints that some guests may find uncomfortable or that may occasionally prevent an individual from experiencing the attraction. Some attractions have “test seats” available so that guests can determine comfort and fit for themselves before riding. These are designated with an asterisk below (*)
