Thanks for going to places inside of the park that a lot of us didn't realize existed ,now I know where to go to beat the crowds. When will the King Kong ride be up and running.
I got to sit in the control room for the fountain, once! -- I think I've mentioned that, before...BTW, the control room is behind Sinbad's arena and there are cameras in (I think) 3 different areas near the fountain.
When planning to go to universall i discovered your channel and i wanted to plan for everything ahead so i almost spent a whole night and day watching your vids about universal studios my Friend and me had the grandest time i kept telling him about all the rides and things like that and thanks to you i had a great time at universal stuidos!! Thank you!
Hey Tim! Great vid! In the Jurassic Area it looks like you got higher up somewhere to get some really good shots of the new ride construction and the pteranodon ride passes right in from of you. Where were you shooting from? Thanks!
Its funny to see how even the food is so much different on the other side of the world. That hollandaise sauce is a whole new thing to me, i work as a chef, and its amazing to see. I'll be making the Floridaise sauce right here in the Netherlands.
Universal is stepping up their game like crazy. Disney needs to get on the ball and finally announce what they are going to do with DHS and hurry up on Avatar
TheTimTracker Hi Guys im flying over from the UK on June 3rd-14th, Whats days of the week would recommend to go the universal parks for it to be less busy smaller que times
Hi guys, I love your vids now please tell me of many weeks the (U S) place has been doing the New (Kong) ride that u said that will be open in the yr- 2016 & stuff
Hey Tim, I am graduating high school in May and going to Orlando for my graduation trip. I am going to Disney and universal. I will be here for two weeks. Is there any place that would also be cool to visit or see while I am there?
I love your videos and watch them all the time.they are so helpful in planning my trip to universal and disney next year! I have a few suggestions for you on eggs Benedict 1 add vinegar to the water and 2 you have to really get the water moving to get a perfect egg. Thanks for your awsome videos.
I actually went to the hardrock cafe once with my choir (there was a competition and participating in it gave us free tickets for the whole day, and we won grand champion!) And no one ever pointed out the berlin wall... i wish i couldve seen it!
hey when you feel like your dying from the heat... most ppl do watevr its takes to cool off...be it dumping ice one's self or shedding of the clothes...I know ive done it a couple times lol.....trying to explains this bizarre phenomena I believe Nelly once said: It getting hot in here, so hot. So take off all of your clothes. I am getting so hot, I want to take my clothes off.
Hello Mr. Tim i can probably tell you what that thing you throught was porm might be used for it will probably be used for grad night 2015 in just a couple weeks on april 25
I'm glad you're having a great time, our annual pass for universal is almost done:( I'm looking for some good deals for annual passes but I really plan on going to magic kingdom. Do you know any parks that have annual passes? Thanks.
I'll be in Orlando for the Back To The Future Day, 21st Oct I believe? I am making sure I go to Universal on that day, even if they don't do anything special I'm going to do something for it! It's going to be monumental being in the park that day, I just wish I could experience the ride that day. Maybe they will show a jaws 15 preview :P! Haha! Anyway, great video, I hope that works for the bats, the construction on King Kong/ skull island/ whatever it's called looks great, it's coming along really quick!
The King Kong area looks a bit like the big temple on Skull Island in the various Kong movies - they're probably going to model it after the 2005 version, since it's getting a prequel ("Skull Island") in 2017
Hey there! Great video! Curiosity question unrelated to video. How did you guys make your reservation for Be Our Guest Breakfast or any other times? Been trying for a few weeks now just planning ahead and it gives me an error message online saying a problem occurred. I know times go out pretty fast and am trying to plan for a future visit. Any tips?
I don't know where you heard to spin your eggs but that is the weirdest way I've ever seen anyone try to poach an egg. Next time, if you try again, use a shallow skillet with about two inches of water and a little salt. Crack the egg directly into the water and wait until the white sets up, then scoop out with a slotted spoon (to let the excess water drain before transferring to the Canadian bacon topped muffin). You guys did make an Eggs Bennedict you enjoyed, so that's good, this way can just be a little easier.
I'm sad I didn't see you. 😭😭 I was there that day. I was all dressed up in a gryffindor robe and tie heeeheee. Several people asked me if I worked there and for directions and wait times. 😂😂
I heard the metal detectors are a trial to see if they could implement them on Dragon Challenge to get the coaster duelling again (think they stopped as someone got hurt from money flying out of someones pocket). I hope so as they stopped duelling about three weeks before my first visit.
At the end of this month my daughter will be at Universal for Senior Nights with her High School so I know crowds are not going away this month. I bet it's going to be crazy crowded then.
Next time you ride Buzz Lightyear at Disney, point out my hidden Mickey that was put in the books. It's a classic hidden Mickey on the purple planet Z in the queue line. I sometimes see you point them out, so, point out mine.
I'm the one who found it and submitted it to the author of the books, Steve Barrett. Then he confirms it by going to look for it himself, and I guess he thought it was a good one because he put it in the Hidden Mickey book with my name in the acknowledgements.
OMG last time my friends and I were at Universal we went exploring too! We went to that place by the restaurant and we did take a lot of photos! We wondering about the fountain guy, like where the heck is he!?
The water fountain at Universal Studios that used to talk back to you supposedly got clogged and started leaking and filled the whole area with a few inches of water Lol
A very random question, but do you guys ever have those refillable drinks cups?! My family swear by them, we take them with us every single year HAHAHA!
Hey Tim, I know that you don't watch anime, but from what you said yesterday it doesn't seem you mind watching it. I think that when you have free time you should watch Death Note. It is an anime that is on Netflix with a voice dub or subtitles (you're choice, the dub is good though.) I'm not going to really try to explain the show because the concept is kinda odd, but the show is INCREDIBLE!!! You should really give it a watch. I've had people who hate anime tell me they love the show because it's just that good!!!
In Universal studios, hollywood there's an atracttion called the studio tours and there's a thing apart of the atracttion(King Kong) called King Kong 360 3-D
Jamie Kernc Rip, Ride, Rockit has them on a testing basis. They might be there, they might not. It's probably a good idea to just put your stuff in a locker to be safe. The lockers are free while you ride.
Hi Tim I’m watching this video after the KONG ride opened up,the day it opened up for me it was a 150 minute wait,the ride wasn’t too good anyway but I hope you try it out and maybe you’ll like it though 😋
Yunaton F Langhirt We have been to Blue Man twice since we started doing the videos. It's a pretty fun show so we will have to go back!!! Unfortunately the old Nickelodeon Studios are closed off to the public. The only thing we can see is one of the bathrooms out front still has green "slime" themed tiles on the floor.
The place has been packed since like last week. I was there during Easter weekend and almost every line was up to an hour wait. Islands of Adventure was packed, couldn't even ride anything.
Ajarmetta A I go quite often so I didn't really mind but I was disappointed about that, then the Mummy ride broke down while in line. Just not a good time to visit.
Hey Tim. You've replied to a handful of my comments before. But I understand you're a pretty busy guy and I'd understand if this one goes unread. First off, let me say that I'm a huge fan of you and Jenn. I like how you guys aren't one of those hugely-known vlogger couples that lets the fame and recognition go to your heads. You guys just have fun and do whatever the heck you want! I do have one question, though. How do you find time to go to the theme parks and do all the fun things you guys do with your job? I'm assuming you work a full 40-hour work week? I'm in my senior year of college and I'm currently in the stage of looking for a full-time job when I graduate in about a month. I'm worried that I won't have any free time or time to do anything fun. You seem like you always have the time and energy, what's your secret?? And any other advice for a 22-year-old in a transitional stage?
Rob Roy We actually read every single comment, I just only have time to respond to as many as I can in the morning before work. Many people ask why I wake up 3 hours before I have to be at work. This is one of those reasons. I can tell you this, don't worry! You will still have time at the end of the day after a full 8 hour work day to do fun stuff! Although it is very hard for us to head out to the parks after I get off work so most of the time if you see us at the parks it is on my days off. But, we have been known to head out to the parks after I get off. I am tired often though.
Comedy gaming What windows? The only windows in the guest areas are the ticket windows for Blue Man Group. Any other windows are very tinted or painted over.
So at 14:30, what do you think is being built there? Did you say King Kong? They're re-building it?! I really hope you're right if I heart you correctly.
Hey Tim, first great vlog, and second do you know the owner of Abby cause I recently witnessed another vlogger who had a cat who got pregnant and had a litter earlier in the year and Abby is kind of looking similar to me. I really hope she's just getting a little chubby.
Love you're vids but you are killing the teflon pan with that metal wisk.
Thanks for going to places inside of the park that a lot of us didn't realize existed ,now I know where to go to beat the crowds. When will the King Kong ride be up and running.
MELISSA OCAIN You are very welcome! Kong is rumored to open in 2016.
I got to sit in the control room for the fountain, once! -- I think I've mentioned that, before...BTW, the control room is behind Sinbad's arena and there are cameras in (I think) 3 different areas near the fountain.
Duelling dragons (now wizard cup) is the best ride at islands of adventure and aghhh people need to go on it more
I love it when you guys visit the themeparks always top quality entertainment.
Here after all this time RIP Armani & Bandit forever in our hearts
That green wall next to disaster is Construction for Halloween Horror Nights Tim Tracker
I love eggs Benedict. You and Jen did an excellent job.
So glad you did this video of you in the parks!! Haven't seen them in a while and they are awesome :D
When planning to go to universall i discovered your channel and i wanted to plan for everything ahead so i almost spent a whole night and day watching your vids about universal studios my Friend and me had the grandest time i kept telling him about all the rides and things like that and thanks to you i had a great time at universal stuidos!! Thank you!
I'm learning stuff here. We're coming from Texas to hit both Universal parks for a few days in June and I'm taking notes. Thanks Trackers.
Love your videos! (Hey Jen - There are about 7 cranes! LOL)
Did you say Kong-struction?
I like it.
Going threw hard Rock was the best advice I got from your videos we saved lots of time going park to park doing this in Feb!
I can't wait to see the new King Kong ride, it looks like it's gonna be HUGE!
Hey Tim! Great vid! In the Jurassic Area it looks like you got higher up somewhere to get some really good shots of the new ride construction and the pteranodon ride passes right in from of you. Where were you shooting from? Thanks!
Its funny to see how even the food is so much different on the other side of the world.

TheTimTracker Hi Guys im flying over from the UK on June 3rd-14th, Whats days of the week would recommend to go the universal parks for it to be less busy smaller que times
Hi guys, I love
your vids
now please tell me
of many weeks the
(U S) place has been
doing the New (Kong)
ride that u said that will
be open in the yr- 2016
& stuff
Those eggs were eggcellent, oh man these yokes crack me up! I'll see myself out
Tim, what are you filming with. That camera is SO CRISP.
kayleighkill Canon SX700hs. I want the Canon G7x though! The low light capture on that one is insane!
TheTimTracker Its gorgeous!
You sir are a genius with those eggs
Hey to answer the question, at gringotts they did use that extra queue on easter and it was annoying I went in early and it was so annoying
I'm so excited to visit here next year! Hopefully King Kong will be open when I come! And good luck with the bats!
Hey Tim, I am graduating high school in May and going to Orlando for my graduation trip. I am going to Disney and universal. I will be here for two weeks. Is there any place that would also be cool to visit or see while I am there?
I love your videos and watch them all the time.they are so helpful in planning my trip to universal and disney next year! I have a few suggestions for you on eggs Benedict 1 add vinegar to the water and 2 you have to really get the water moving to get a perfect egg. Thanks for your awsome videos.
Amanda Atkinson We did add vinegar, but we will try moving the water more next time! Thanks!
Universal Studios Saxophone Player > Ron Burgundy playing flute
Eeeeeeee less than 3 weeks and we'll be there, thank you for getting us excited for the trip :)
Great video! Wondering if you have any idea of why dragon challenge always has such short waits?
I can't wait to go Friday for grad bash. I have been waiting to ride the hulk, dragon challenge, and gringotts.
I actually went to the hardrock cafe once with my choir (there was a competition and participating in it gave us free tickets for the whole day, and we won grand champion!) And no one ever pointed out the berlin wall... i wish i couldve seen it!
That's DEFINITELY King Kong, the construction looks just like the entrance to skull island from the 2005 film.
Anthony Fins Yes! It hasn't been officially announced and I was waiting for that before calling it Kong... but this is pretty undeniable!
hey when you feel like your dying from the heat... most ppl do watevr its takes to cool off...be it dumping ice one's self or shedding of the clothes...I know ive done it a couple times lol.....trying to explains this bizarre phenomena I believe Nelly once said:
It getting hot in here, so hot.
So take off all of your clothes.
I am getting so hot, I want to take my clothes off.
RedXiZherE Haha!!!
Hello Mr. Tim i can probably tell you what that thing you throught was porm might be used for it will probably be used for grad night 2015 in just a couple weeks on april 25
From what I hear, they're going to open an exhibit on the history of the park where the Gardens section is closed off.
I'm glad you're having a great time, our annual pass for universal is almost done:( I'm looking for some good deals for annual passes but I really plan on going to magic kingdom. Do you know any parks that have annual passes? Thanks.
Behappy Every theme park in central Florida has annual passes, although the Disney ones cost quite a bit more than the other parks in the area.
Awe that cat is so pretty
Wow I remember the bats can't believe it's been a year when I started watching you guys :D
12:38 - I went across that walkway in 2011 :)
***** It's always fun when it's open and allows for an easy pathway around Hogsmeade!
I'll be in Orlando for the Back To The Future Day, 21st Oct I believe? I am making sure I go to Universal on that day, even if they don't do anything special I'm going to do something for it! It's going to be monumental being in the park that day, I just wish I could experience the ride that day. Maybe they will show a jaws 15 preview :P! Haha!
Anyway, great video, I hope that works for the bats, the construction on King Kong/ skull island/ whatever it's called looks great, it's coming along really quick!
I cannot say how much I love your channel!!! :) btw 300th like :)
The King Kong area looks a bit like the big temple on Skull Island in the various Kong movies - they're probably going to model it after the 2005 version, since it's getting a prequel ("Skull Island") in 2017
***** I believe you are correct!

Been trying for a few weeks now just planning ahead and it gives me an error message online saying a problem occurred. I know times go out pretty fast and am trying to plan for a future visit.

Kelsie M I did it on the app, but if that isn't working or the website isn't working you can always call the dinning reservation line.
I don't know where you heard to spin your eggs but that is the weirdest way I've ever seen anyone try to poach an egg. Next time, if you try again, use a shallow skillet with about two inches of water and a little salt.

You guys did make an Eggs Bennedict you enjoyed, so that's good, this way can just be a little easier.
Will the king Kong ride be built for September this year?
Going to universal next month, do you think the express ticket is worth it?
I'm Just Binge Watching Your Videos To Hold and Over Till I Come To Florida In October 😂😍
I'm going in August but I'm doing the same thing!
Are you still allowed to bring your phone on the ride if its in your pocket or does it have to be EVERYTHING.
Do you ever go on Doctor Dooms fearfall? It's my favorite ride. You should show everyone the hidden secrets of Doom Alley!!
I'm sad I didn't see you. 😭😭 I was there that day. I was all dressed up in a gryffindor robe and tie heeeheee. Several people asked me if I worked there and for directions and wait times. 😂😂
I heard the metal detectors are a trial to see if they could implement them on Dragon Challenge to get the coaster duelling again (think they stopped as someone got hurt from money flying out of someones pocket). I hope so as they stopped duelling about three weeks before my first visit.
At the end of this month my daughter will be at Universal for Senior Nights with her High School so I know crowds are not going away this month. I bet it's going to be crazy crowded then.
Many of the places you walked in IOA that were deserted were viewing areas for the firework show that no longer exists
Next time you ride Buzz Lightyear at Disney, point out my hidden Mickey that was put in the books. It's a classic hidden Mickey on the purple planet Z in the queue line. I sometimes see you point them out, so, point out mine.
Tyler Glynn I'll keep my eye out for it! What makes it your hidden Mickey?
I'm the one who found it and submitted it to the author of the books, Steve Barrett. Then he confirms it by going to look for it himself, and I guess he thought it was a good one because he put it in the Hidden Mickey book with my name in the acknowledgements.
Awwwwww how cute and amazing :D
Hey, I work as security over there. I noticed you mentioned guys without shirts, we do try to enforce that they keep them on.
I wish King Kong would be a Jurassic World Ride. And maybe put a fast and the furious ride like a roller coaster or something.
JustaKoreanGuy There might be something new coming to the Jurassic Park area too...
OMG last time my friends and I were at Universal we went exploring too! We went to that place by the restaurant and we did take a lot of photos! We wondering about the fountain guy, like where the heck is he!?
JustaKoreanGuy Hehe! Yup, he is just up in that building next to the fountain!
I was there during Easter and the lines weren't bad at all and no real crazy crowd issues
guy109 Really? Some people were saying it was bad that day!
Lets see i waited about 30min for the forbidden journey and about 25min for gringotts and i was there pretty much all day
The water fountain at Universal Studios that used to talk back to you supposedly got clogged and started leaking and filled the whole area with a few inches of water Lol
Ryan Tesch Hehe! That is pretty interesting!
Have you've seen the Kong Ride at Universal studios Hollywood? Its pretty epic, I could only imagine how this one will be.
Sidney Walker We have seen video, but we have never been to Universal Hollywood! We hope to go one day!
I wish I had this dudes life.
A very random question, but do you guys ever have those refillable drinks cups?!
My family swear by them, we take them with us every single year HAHAHA!
Where going Saturday im hoping the crowds go down too lol
Danny Manahan Google a Universal crowd calendar and that should help you see what the crowds will be like!
It's 5:30 in the evening and now i sooooooo want eggs benadict!
I use Knorrrs Hollandaise sauce mix. I guess I'm lazy but it tastes great.
Hey Tim, I know that you don't watch anime, but from what you said yesterday it doesn't seem you mind watching it. I think that when you have free time you should watch Death Note. It is an anime that is on Netflix with a voice dub or subtitles (you're choice, the dub is good though.)

I've had people who hate anime tell me they love the show because it's just that good!!!
Andrew Dougherty I'll give it a look when I have some free time! Thanks!
As many times as we've been to IOA, we've never seen Green Eggs & Ham open ...
Bonny L Hehe! It's only open in the morning I think!
My birthday was today!Not that it matters.The eggs Benedict looked so yummy!It doesn't help that I'm starving right now,haha!
Happy birthday!!
Cupcake63931 Aww thank you!
Tim can you do another one of these but in stead of places that you have never been to but characters that you haven't met
my uncle is working on what the old nascar cafe will be
The kong ride might have kongs face n if u remember the movie with jack black in it they went to skull island
Todd Hoose It's possible! I think what I showed is going to be based of the temple in that movie.
Hey guys, I'm in Orlando at the moment. I'm stopping at cabana bay beach resort 😁
NewtonBlogTV Awesome! That is such a fun resort!
last time i went i tried the side entrance to studios and it wasn't open
In Universal studios, hollywood there's an atracttion called the studio tours and there's a thing apart of the atracttion(King Kong) called King Kong 360 3-D
Jaciboid56 Yes, this one will be a stand alone ride though.
Did they ever put the Jurassic Park arch back?
Tim, just to be sure, what ride(s) now have metal detectors?
Jamie Kernc Rip, Ride, Rockit has them on a testing basis. They might be there, they might not. It's probably a good idea to just put your stuff in a locker to be safe. The lockers are free while you ride.
in king kong film that was the entrance to the native sacrifice area if I remember correctly
You should add vinegar to your egg water to congeal the white and not have it fall apart
Tim, did u ever do the Atlantis show by the hulk it's very cool I highly suggested it!
Anyone know if they have the will call kiosks on the universal side as well?
Hi Tim I’m watching this video after the KONG ride opened up,the day it opened up for me it was a 150 minute wait,the ride wasn’t too good anyway but I hope you try it out and maybe you’ll like it though 😋
Grrr I wish I could go but whatevs I will go soon I hope I see you guys when I go but I have a question will you ever have kids?
Tim
Are you ever going to get tickets for blue man group? Of so but the bio so you can film the old Nickelodeon studio.
Yunaton F Langhirt We have been to Blue Man twice since we started doing the videos. It's a pretty fun show so we will have to go back!!! Unfortunately the old Nickelodeon Studios are closed off to the public. The only thing we can see is one of the bathrooms out front still has green "slime" themed tiles on the floor.
Dang. Someone told me if you do the VIP seats they show you the whole studio but I guess they stop.
great job
Thats was a very busy monday just was insane
The place has been packed since like last week. I was there during Easter weekend and almost every line was up to an hour wait. Islands of Adventure was packed, couldn't even ride anything.
Yeah ikr i was lucky to have express that day
Ajarmetta A Yea, Easter weekend (including the Monday after) is always a very busy time for the parks.
Ajarmetta A I go quite often so I didn't really mind but I was disappointed about that, then the Mummy ride broke down while in line. Just not a good time to visit.
Where is the jrassic park door go?
I'm going to Universal Hollywood today
I'm finally going back to Orlando just not Universal only Disney and the closest we go to Universal is City walk
I have a wait times app and Despicable Me was 120+ minutes at one point yesterday!
PrettyFly4AWhyteGurl Yup! It's been pretty intense recently!
finally a universal vlog how long has it been?
shabbir mian 12 days...

For perfect pouched eggs put your eggs in Cling film
Epiq Sax guy
Look inside the windows at the old nick studios
Comedy gaming What windows? The only windows in the guest areas are the ticket windows for Blue Man Group. Any other windows are very tinted or painted over.
There are windows up the stairs Tim! You can still see that there is a Nickelodeon mural!
when is back to the future day? anyone know?
Crazy March Kid October 21st.
So at 14:30, what do you think is being built there? Did you say King Kong? They're re-building it?! I really hope you're right if I heart you correctly.
Hey Tim, first great vlog, and second do you know the owner of Abby cause I recently witnessed another vlogger who had a cat who got pregnant and had a litter earlier in the year and Abby is kind of looking similar to me. I really hope she's just getting a little chubby.
Eszra Yea, she belongs to our neighbors. They had her fixed about a year ago, I think she is just getting chubby!
TheTimTracker Oh good, I was getting worried for a moment.
you dont have to spin the water to poach eggs. just crack the eggs into the boiling water ^_^
