I love going to theme parks, those are my best experiences so far and I really enjoy my entire day, it is full of rides, shows, parades and interactive Characters. I Have been to over 30 theme parks around the world, and here is my list of best theme park experiences.
1. Universal Islands of Adventure
Location : Orlando, USA
All best things in One place, we have Wizarding world of Harry Potter here, Marvel Superhero rides and the kids can have great time too at Dr. Seuss's rides, with amazing shows across all around.
My Favourite Rides : Harry Potter and Forbidden Journey, Hulk Roller Coaster and The Amazing adventures of Spiderman
2. Epcot, Walt Disney World
Location : Orlando, USA
Whole world under 1 roof, we have 10 country pavilions here, each one has their own kind of show or attraction with it showcasing country Highlights such as Norway has a Boat ride across the storm, Mexico has another great show with Mickey and Donald, also with a glimpse of Future. Adults are gonna enjoy it more than kids, as it offers more mature and intellectual experiences.
My Favourite Rides : Illuminations (Fireworks Show) , Soaring and Spaceship Earth
3. Sea World
Location : Orlando, USA
Marine Life comes in all forms here, from amazing Killer Whale "Shamu" shows to water splashing Roller Coaster rides, you are gonna have a great time, we can also play and interact with Turtles, Penguins and so many different kind of fishes, also you learn so much about their existence and survival. Its a great experience.

4. Six Flags Magic Mountain
Location : Los Angeles, USA
18 roller Coasters they have here, the highest in world, I went to 13 of them, rest 5 were for kids, and this is a crazy place, I rode a Standing Roller Coasting, A 4D coaster with Fire and Water Effects, A Launch Roller Coaster that went backwards to 120m in 4 Seconds. My day was full of turns and twists and it was really mind boggling.
My Favourite Rides : Superman:Escape from Krypton, Tatsu, X2 and Riddler's Revenge

Location : Orlando, USA
This is the most different kind of theme park experience you will ever get, we can snorkel here for hours and so many different species we get to see, plus they have a huge aviary where 4-5 exotic birds are sitting on you very next second, it is a complete nature divine experience. You can also do Dolphin Ride for an add on Price.

Water Park for all ages, Thrilling rides to Fun rides, easy laid back day with Arabian Hospitality and Beautiful Cabanas, you can experiences thrill of coming down 120 metres at 80km/hr and also they have Tantrum Alley, though my favourite was these Master Blasters which is a Marathon of 7-8 rides, its really fun and unique.
