Walking from International Drive to Universal Orlando


Walking path from the intersection of I-Drive and Universal Blvd to Universal CityWalk

There are two groups of hotels within walking distance of Universal CityWalk, which connects to Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure. One group is located on Major Blvd, across Kirkman Rd from the resort area. The second group is located along International Drive, across Interstate 4 from the resort. In this post, we will take a closer look at exactly what it looks like to walk from the second group of hotels, the ones on International Drive (more commonly referred to as I-Drive), to Universal.

To start, take a look at my custom-made Google map below. Remember, you can click any marker to display the attraction or venue name.

We are starting our walk from the intersection of I-Drive and Universal Blvd. On the map above, this is where the bottom of the red line and the top of the purple line touch. This intersection is quite busy because it is a major part of the I-Drive tourist corridor and is also near Universal Endless Summer Resort.

Now that we have our bearings, we can start the walk. Even though there is a bit of distance to cover (0.8 miles), this walk is incredibly simple. All you have to do is walk straight over the bridge crossing I-4 and on to Universal CityWalk. The path is very roomy, clean, and well-lit. Plus, for additional safety, there is a concrete barrier between you and the traffic lanes as you cross over the bridge.
