Absolutely sensational, the highlight of my trip. Chris was a very knowledgeable, patient, pleasant guide. Worth every penny. Will definitely be returning and doing this again. Cannot recommend enough.

Amazing! If you love film and television you really can't do Universal any other way! We saw the costume team hard at work, the props department and got up close and personal with sets including walking along Wysteria Lane while the normal tour drove past!
We didn't have to line up for any rides and the lunch was really tasty and filling!

Amazing day very knowledgeable guide, breakfast was a bonus and lunch was excellent. Well worth the money went on all the rides and hardly had to queue at all, tour was excellent and lasted over 2 hours

What a fantastic day, highly recommended! We were a bit cautious about spending this amount of money but it was so worth it. Universal Studios is amazing and was quite crowded, but that didn't matter to us as we walked past the crowds and straight onto the rides and shows without lining up. In one day we easily managed to experience all the main attractions, having a second go on our favourites. The backlot tour was very extensive, so much more than the regular park guests get. Not to mention the absolutely lovely buffet lunch. You don't need breakfast either as a light meal is available when you arrive. Our guide was fantastic and we are so glad we chose this tour. You won't be disappointed, especially if you only have one day available and don't enjoy lining up! Worth it!!

Fantastic trip! Full day of touring the back lots of the studios and then VIP treatment on all the rides. After doing Disneyland/California Adventure Park the day before I shouldn't have wasted my money and come here instead - for two days! Our tour guide Carey was fantastic and very knowledgeable. Would do it again.

Excellent day! Well worth the expense and experience. Started the day with a welcome breakfast and then the whole day taken up with behind the scenes tour and wonderful lunch in between. Getting on the rides first and avoiding all the lines was particularly helpful. Our guide for the day, Doug, was full of information and his sense of humor helped make our day a great experience.

Just a great day, skipped the massive lines for rides and went straight to the front. The lunch was massive and good quality and the VIP tram topped the day off worth every cent

The only way to experience Universal Studios! The meals were fabulous and at all times you are treated like a VIP. The padded seats on the trolley, the ability to visit the costuming and the prop store room was fabulous. It is worth every cent! Megan, Australia, March 2013.

A MUST if you can afford it. Seriously, 80 for admission or 250 for: FOL pass, great tour guide (get Doug), Backstage tour where you GET OFF THE BUS AND WALK ON THE SETS, Unreal buffet. So good. Free photo of you in front of your own hollywood walk of fame star. It was January but plenty of crowds.

A great way to visit Universal Studios! The day was perfectly organized with no time wasted waiting in queues. The backlot tour was excellent and included a visit to a studio set and the prop room. Walking through Wisteria lane and other outdoor sets was perfect for my film mad daughter.

Our guide Will was totally awesome. Love walking around the War of the World set! Buffet lunch wasn't too bad, great selection.
