    Have you ever made these EPA mistakes? What EPA advice would you give people? 🤔💭

    Loved this vid of you guys! What not to do during EPA; wait for your family that aren’t really early morning people. You go and do your thing and then brag to them about an empty Hogsmeade and Three Broomsticks for breakfast and hot butter beer!

    Thank you, i was looking for a video like this for us with kids who can’t be in line at 7am, and would be slow to the ride, thank you lots

      We are glad you enjoyed it! Kids certainly add another dynamic into the equation! Getting to the gates at 7 would be tough with little ones! Definitely Velocicoaster for the adults and enjoying some slow time in the Wizarding World is still going to make EPA worth it! And Flight of the Hippogriff if your kids are tall enough!

    Hey! Just recently discovered your channel and subscribed but going back to this video from last year i wanted to recommend one other tip: If EPA is at Studios, and you are staying at a Premier Resort do NOT ride Gringotts during EPA. Express passes are not accepted during the EPA hour. EVERYONE runs to that ride, since it is the only ride in Diagon Alley, during that EPA time. If you've got express, do things that express is not accepted for: Ollivanders wand shop show, the shopping in general, performing magic in the wand spots. For Islands, there are so many rides open that its okay to hit up Velocicoaster and Forbidden Journey (even though they accept express), but if you're in studios, wait until the park officially opens and you can ride Gringotts with a much shorter wait!

    Our first epa we were some of the very first to go in. Us being older we were just walking to hagrids. All these people behind us broke into a dead run about half way there. When we got to hogsmead we looked over at hagrids which was completely empty. Then we looked up and there was probably 200 people coming at us in a dead run. They had all ran right past it. It was a walk on for us lol

      Haha that’s awesome! Slow and and steady wins the race! There’s not a big reason to run! Hagrid’s isn’t going anywhere! Being ready to put your stuff in a locker can save you more time in our opinion 🤷🏻‍♂️

    New to the channel! I'm also an AP and park "pro", but I like watching videos in-between trips. You two are great!! You are not only informative, but super entertaining!! (I knew you were a "good" channel when you recommended NOT riding Hagrid's during EPA!! It's a rookie mistake! 🤣) --- My best EPA tip = Do all the Spells in WWOHP. This is the best time. Everyone is on rides!! You can take as long as you want / need to practice or perform because no one will be waiting behind you. I can often do ALL the spells, grab a butterbeer, ride FJ with time to spare before EPA ends!! This is great for parents with small children that will need more time!

      @fudge_factor  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ahhh welcome to the channel! We are glad you enjoy the videos!! That means so much to us! Totally agree! EPA can be a very powerful thing when used correctly! When used incorrectly you just spend the whole time waiting for Hagrid’s….no fun! That’s a great note for parents! We didn’t even consider that aspect! Great insights!!

    When I did epa, I did hagrids 1 day, and managed to do velocicoaster after because I somehow was near the front of hagrids despite slowly walking to the line.
    On my first day of epa, velocicoaster was down so I did hippogriff, forbidden Journey and ate at the hp resteraunts
