Suess Landing is one of the wackiest themed areas of any theme park around. You feel like you’re instantly transported into one of Dr. Suess’ books the moment you arrive in this section of Universal Orlando’s Islands of Adventure. And it gets even better with each ride this land has to offer.
The Cat in the Hat
Go for a spin with The Cat in the Hat as you ride your couch through the pages of Dr. Seuss’s, best-loved children’s book. This delightful ride takes the story of The Cat in the Hat and re-creates it scene for scene. You’ll spin and you’ll swerve this way and that as that red and white hatted cat and his friends Thing One and Thing Two almost bring down the house. With a bump and a thump and an assortment of crashes the mischievous trio make quite a mess of things. You’d better hope they get the house cleaned up before Mother comes home!
One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish
Dr. Seuss’ delightful children’s book comes to life in this ride that kids (and parents) will love. Climb aboard One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish™ and take the controls as you steer your colorful fish up, up, up and down, down, down. As you fly low and fly high, spinning and swooping around and around you’ll pass an array of fountains that squirt in time to a musical rhyme. Pay attention to the words and do what they say if you don’t want to get wet!
The High in the Sky Suess Trolley Train
All aboard! Get a whole new perspective of Seuss Landing on The High in the Sky Seuss Trolley Train Ride! On this twin-tracked ride you’ll take a gentle journey high above the colorful rides and attractions of Seuss Landing. One track of the trolley even circles around the inside of Circus McGurkus Cafe Stoo-pendous letting you wave at the guests dining below. As you wait to board the trolley you’ll follow the wonderful story of the Sneetches featuring Sylvester McMonkey McBean. One track continues the story of the Sneetches, while the other track gives you the ABC’s of Seuss Landing as you pass overhead. It’s great fun for the whole family. Fun fact: The High in the Sky Seuss Trolley Train Ride is composed of more than 200 colors!
Caro-Suess-El
You’ll find an array of unusual creatures from the imagination of Dr. Seuss on this one-of-a-kind carousel. You can even animate your characters! For the first time ever in a carousel you can pull back on the reins or push the lever on the neck and your mount’s eyes will blink, ears will wiggle, or head will turn. Plus, look high above and you’ll see Horton the Elephant at the very top of the Caro-Seuss-el, carefully guarding his dandelion. Some of the characters you can ride include elephant birds from Horton Hatches the Egg; twin camels from One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish; cowfish from McElligot’s Pool; Mulligatawnies from If I Ran the Zoo; aqua mop tops, dog-a-lopes and more.
