Universal Studios’ Islands of Adventure has held the #1 ranking among the “best theme parks in the world,” in Tripadvisor’s annual Travelers’ Choice Awards for the past five years, but this year Magic Kingdom at Disney World has won the top spot.
To determine the rankings, Tripadvisor said it pulled together “all the reviews, ratings and saves that travelers share from across the globe.”
Islands of Adventure slid to the third spot for 2020. Rounding out the top five were Puy du Frous of France at No. 2, Disney’s Animal Kingdom at No. 4 and Universal’s Studios Florida at No. 5.
“Every year, we pull together all the reviews, ratings, and saves that travelers share from across the globe — and use that info to spotlight the very best,” the Tripadvisor website says. Tripadvisor’s site features user-generated content, comparison guides and reservations for travel experiences, including hotels.
Other Florida theme parks to make the list include Disney’s Hollywood Studios at No. 12 and Fun Spot’s Kissimmee park at No. 23. As far as water parks go, Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon ranked sixth in the world, while Disney’s Blizzard Beach ranked 19th.
