    The Only Way to See Universal Hollywood
    Charles_H
    , Feb 2020
    Easily the best way to see Universal Studios Hollywood. Our guide Lary could not have been better and we were able to see the entire park, including walking the park an hour before general entry, behind the scenes props and sets, and without ever feeling rushed. We skipped the line on every ride available, attended all of the major shows, and still had time to explore on our own multiple times. Additionally, upon arrival, you are provided breakfast and are served a buffet lunch only open to VIPs where you will likely interact with Universal characters. If you have children and the means, this is easily the best way to see the park and keep your sanity

Cara the tour guide was amazing. she was so funny and such a happy person , nothing was to much trouble. If you dont want to wait 2 hours for the rides and attractions I would recommend this tour. we saw sooo much more than buying a normal ticket. The food was to die for too. WORTH EVERY CENT .

    It was great from the valet parking, free breakfast and lunch which was wonderful to the very end of the day. Our guide Tony could not have been better as he was very knowledgeable. It was great not standing in line, but getting right on rides with front row seats for shows. The VIP pass was worth every penny.

    We booked this trip for our son's 21st and although it was expensive was well worth it. Starting off with breakfast and meeting our guide for the day and rest of group. Our guide Donna was amazing and for 7hours she guided us to the best rides & shows with no queuing. Lunch was to die for (buffet style) with so much choice. We had free time for the last 2hours of park opening to revisit rides or try new ones.

    A great experience if you have already seen Universal Studios the cheaper way. We felt very special! I thought it was very expensive for a day but the park was not busy so we wouldnt have needed to line up for rides for long anyway. If you travel at peak times I feel it would be better value for money. Great breakfast and lunch. Not a lot of time to experience the rides but as we did not need to line up at all, we could ride each one at least once.

    This was a great tour! We had a great tour guide and he expertly moved us around the park, held bags and made the day very enjoyable. The food was great at both breakfast and lunch. We did not realize that breakfast was going to be provided and had already eaten. We thought it was only go to be pastries and coffee. There was yogurt, oatmeal, hard cooked eggs, etc. I would recommend this as a way to go. In fact, I plan on checking into this for Florida Universal!
