Pre-Trip Report: Molly’s Universal Epic Experience (August 2025) — Where I Long To Be: A Magical Trip Report Podcast

Molly and her family are headed to Universal Studios Florida! They are planning a weeklong stay at the Universal Helios Grand Hotel with 6 day tickets. Obviously, since they are staying right outside of Epic Universe, experiencing Epic for the first time is a big part of this trip, so they will be splurging for two days in that park (yes, you have to pay extra for that right now) with one day of Epic Express Pass. It’s been since 2022 that they have gone to Universal as a family, so they are all super excited about this trip!

Trip Dates: August 10-17, 2025
Pre-Trip Interview: recorded 8/4/25
