ripjerry95 Posted February 12, 2012 #1 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Hi-I see on the RCI website that there is a "package" of either 3/4 at Universal and a 4/7 night cruise. Includes hotel at Universal, transfers, admission etc. Can anyone tell me if they have done this before and what their experiences were and do you think it is worth the money? Thanks, Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrSeuss Posted February 12, 2012 #2 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I have it booked for july. After a maths caculation that would have made my maths teachers proud i worked out it saved us money. Will report back when we have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macrompian1 Posted February 12, 2012 #3 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Yes, we went in April 11, had a fantastic time in Universal, it is expensive to eat there, even snacking, so bring some goodies in your case! It was our second time in Universal (Orlando), we preferred the Royal pacific hotel over the portofino even though the portofino was higher rated. We hired a dodge 7 seater to bring us & our luggage to FLL, dropped it off at the alamo , & got a taxi to the RCI port, about 20usd plus tip. I would encourage anyone to do that trip, my kids who were 9 & 10 9 (girls) totally loved every minute, as did I. It was also our first cruise & I hope to continue to do at least one a year! Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spyder209 Posted April 12, 2012 #10 Share Posted April 12, 2012 We did something like this in December. We booked a 4 night on the Monarch and added a 3 day Universal Studio package to it on Travelocity. It included a 3 night hotel stay at the DoubleTree right across the street from the park. We could see the roller coasters from the room! It also included the park passes. Well worth the money. A review is in my signature. They picked us up at the pier to take us to the hotel and then also took us back to the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to do the RCCL/Universal Studios package which includes lodging at one of Universal's hotels, but $300+ per night is definitely not in my budget! Can you walk from DoubleTree to the parks, or do you have to take a shuttle bus? Who picked you up at pier to take you to hotel? Was that something booked through RCCL or DoubleTree? TIA!
