First, I am not a film buff and I am not rich enough not to think twice about spending this kind of money on a visit to Universal. However, I'm very glad that I did. We visited in August when the queues were horrific - at least an hour for every attraction - but we went straight through and got the best seats. We also saw some interesting things that others don't get to see. For example, we saw a tour of the props warehouse, a walk around the sets and a visit to the 'Tonight' studio. Free valet parking and a very nice free buffet lunch offset some of the cost. We were booked in for 10:30am but arrived early and joined the 10am tour. This gave us time to revisit our favorite rides after the tour finished at about 4pm. The VIP pass acts as a front of line pass after the tour. A fantastic experience and well worth the money.

Absolutely fantastic. Would definitely recommend the VIP experience. I hate queuing and jumping to the front of the line was worth every cent.

This was well worth the funds. The VIP tour lasted most of the day and our tour guide made the experience fun and flexible.

I debated spending the money, and I am glad I did. Had a wonderful time - front line passes to rides and shows. The lunch was exceptional, lots of food choices, great venue. Our guide was knowledgeable and organised, so we saw and did everything. This is an experience I will never forget.

Regardless of the lousy weather, our VIP Experience at Universal Studios was fantastic. I would not hesitate to recommend this experience to any fellow travellers.

Only way to do Universal Studios - try to go when they have extended hours. Viator needs to update what Universal offers - we did not do tours of the set lighting department, the staff shop, the mill, the metal shop and the sign shop. This was all listed on the Viator website. We did visit the prop store.

Everyone was so friendly - we were made to feel like real VIP's! You get to see a lot of behind the scenes stuff like the prop rooms etc. FANTASTIC!

No waiting in lines, no having to worry about when the next show is on because your private guide does all that for you! And on top of that a buffet lunch to enjoy!

This trip was excellent. I was well looked after and learnt so much about the studios. I would only do it this way if I went again.

Extended back lot tour is well worth it. Front of line is also of great benefit during peak season. Beware that 5x7 photo is not included in the package.

This experience was well worth the money!! Our guide was fantastic and knew his stuff and extra, and he was with our group for more than 6 hours. After the tour he took us to the main rides in the park. I was a solo traveller and found this great, but we also had couples and families on the tour and everyone else enjoyed it. I highly recommend it to anyone.
