Really a wonderful place to have a fun time for adults and older kids. Thought you could bring younger children here I think kids age six and up would appreciate this place more. The rides are great the food is surprisingly good and the over all experience is just fun filled! If you are going for ju...
amazing place to visit and see the special effects of movie making and others
Great place to visit a lot has changed over the years since the last time I came. Lots of different things to explore and see, always a great time coming here and enjoying your day.
The studio tour is very interesting. Less rollercoasters than in Orlando
Pinks Hotdogs...not as good as the original store. Hopefully it won't be there too much longer I hate to say.
So there are good rises here and line management is a bit better than other places ( ).
It's a good place to hit up for about 2 days or so. Hit the Tour first thing so it's out if the way. Also, if you can single ride it, do it!!! Two of were able to go on Harry's Forbidden Ride 5 times in well u...
Opted for the VIP tour. What a great experience. It will probably be the first and last time I go so I spent the money. Great food, tour guides, and sights. Well with the extra cost if you can afford it.
Universal is falling behind Disney in many ways. There aren't rollercoasters, only a couple of games worth it.
If I was asked to pick between one or another, I'll choose Disney , however you can't deny that this places are amazing.
Universal is a lot of fun and has a lot of movie references and connections. If you like straight up roller coasters however, going to California Adventure would be better.
It was so much fun, we got to do exactly what we wanted to do and didn't have to stand in line for very long. Park was clean and beautiful.
It's really cool, make sure to get there as early as possible (gets very busy).
Only regret was not seeing the walking dead, if you want to see it, it's open from 1:15-5:55.
Really enjoyed Transformers, Simpsons and Jurassic World.
Wonderful. It's too bad that Jurassic park is being renovated. I wish there were more rides though.
Very very expensive. They dollar you to death. Add this for $$$ more to see this and this is extra$$. It was fun and my 13 yr old liked it, didn't love it.
This park was fun but is small compared to the one in Florida. Don't miss the studio tour, which was the best part of the park imo
Fun for the whole family, the rides are less of an adrenaline rush and more of a fun experience. The shows are also wonderful.
The staff all over the park were kind and all seemed happy to be at work. We felt more welcomed here than at Orlando. The Jurassic Park ride improvements are amazing! Thank you for not retiring Curious George. It was the highlight of my son's trip to San Diego (yes, we drove all the way up). So, of ...
Great visit and lots of fun. I was particularly impressed by the staff who were all very helpful and engaging. We spend almost all of our time in the Harry Potter area but it is fantastic!
I has gone there twice. I loved it. I went there with my family. I went to Harry Potter world. I rode the Transformers ride and the Jurassic Park ride. I had lots of fun there.
Parking is $27
Entry Xpress ticket is $189
General : $139
If you are US military $132
One time must visit place. But there are too many things to do. Based on my experience:
1. First do studio tour
2. Then go for ride.. Jurassic park, Mummy, Transformer..
Friendly staff, relatively clean park, wide variety of snacks and food, variety of entertainment/attractions for the whole family, awesome sound and light effects.
Lines are a bit out of control. Especially when, for example, in the tour tram where they offer multilingual tours, I got in a line ...
People friendly cain helpful my douther with special needs love it.
We had a blast with my babys! Will definitely be back!
Came for the 1st time. Not a whole lot of things to do as an adult. Did however enjoy The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Probably wont go again in the near future.
Great movie theme park. We were able to get on all the main rides/attractions as we went on a Thursday with no long waits. The longest wait was approx 40 min for the studio tour. The weather was perfect at 80, coming from Las Vegas.
Please open already, we miss coming here just lots of fun and wonders
Was considering to leave a 4 or 5 star experience but it was tainted by the mind tricking workers at Universal. In a nut shell, they brought down my guard by pretending to care about me by starting the conversation by asking where are you from? Then asked me to participate in a 40 minute survey. Y...
Worth a visit definitely. My fourth time doing the tour. staff needs to learn more about inclusiveness though
The ticket is expensive but absolutely worth it. This park offered an amazing experience and it ended up being one of the most memorable days of my trip to California. We loved all the rides we managed to try and we didn't have to wait too long for any of them, except for the Hogwarts one, but again...
It's hard to not be impressed by how well organised this place is, with most of the production in the rides, the app, WiFi everywhere, etc. However the short openings hours loses this place a star! It's 140 USD to get in and we spent hours just queuing for food, snacks, rides and taking photos with ...
Wonderful place to enjoy studios and ride bit you have to take fast pass or vip experience.
We had three day passes but for us that was too many days, the park can be done in one to two days. I also thought it was crazy that they didn't have a special parking pass for more than one day, so wa had to pay to park each day and that was pretty crazy! But for the most part we had fun!
Great rides and good food I only wish they had more attractions. The Harry Potter themed area was definitely the best part they really did a good job with it.
I just love going to City walk because my baby has a blast when we go she loves going in the water its so fun during summer we always get her pretzel,some candy and her bath bombs oh and of course a movie the theater is awsome with lean back chairs and all u can eat popcorn bring extra clothes cuz...
It was fun, but there's not as much to do as places like six flags or Disneyland.
Even when I am not a fan of Harry Potter - a must to visit attraction. There is a lot of things to do there, you can fill a whole day only with this park. Very important to get there as early as possible if you do not like to stay in rows for hours (there is an option to buy fast track ticket, but i...
AMAZING!! I'm in love! Went yesterday with my family after 8 years and OMG it has changed so much! Went on every ride with no wait, as it was a week day and we got a bit of rain, but not bad. My favorite of all was the Harry Potter part, the cute village looked so real, especially with the weather b...
Really cool to visit and I'm really glad we went, but I'm in no rush to revisit anytime soon. Loved the transformers and Mummy rides, but the other rides felt repetitive. We found the staff not as friendly as they are in Disneyland and I hope the management can address that. Food choices and show...
Had a great time but you do need at least 2 days to see it all
This Jurassic drive is very good and fun it s only 5 minutes but enjoyed. Aye for get in this ride is at least 1 hour. If you can get in the park at 8 am you will not stand in queue for long time . First take Jurassic ride then take bus tour then animal show you won t be disappointed
Very good place to visit for teens and adult but not so good so toddlers. Be ready to long line.
One of the most amazing places to visit in LA if you're a movie buff.
It's like the Orlando park but squished into one park. The view here is incredible and City Walk is also a better here. You can do the whole park in one day.
I loved the backstage tour and Harry Potter's land. I will definitely go back to Harry Potter's land and do the backstage tour again.
This is my second trip to Universal , and my first was to Universal in Orlando, so I will compare these two first and foremost. The GOOD thing about Universal in Los Angeles is the studio tour, and it was really great to see the workplace of many of the greats in Hollywood. However the rest of the p...
Fun day, except for staff towing our wheelchair away causing us to go back and get it. How could they do that? Staff and management needs sensitivity training and customer service. Requested refund, no deal! Almost ruined our day but we made the best of it!
The cast members are always so nice and make the day for us at the park! The Brooklyn section [ I think that's what it is call ] where the cast members talk from the window are the best part!! Butterbeer is a must and a regular beer at Moe's.
Great place to head to! Even when you visit it multiple times, all of the rides still remain fun and delightful. The food is a bit overpriced, though, so maybe bring a few snacks along with you when you enter. Shrek 4D is my favorite (ride?), but The Simpsons ride is also fantastic. The other rides ...
I'm actually not a huge fan, I found the rides to be pretty average as they all sort our mould into one.
I ended up feeling I'll due to the effects of the 3d screens.
Miss the good old scary rides without there needing to be technology involved.
Ended up leaving the park early in favor of a more ...
The rides although were cool, were too short and for those that didn't have the $60 or$100 pass to be at the front of the line, it's a waste of your money and time for a 3-5 second ride. I enjoyed the end of the day tour more than the rides to be honest
We had a great time, though it was so busy we didn't even attempt to go on a ride.
Hogsmeade and Hogwarts was cool. The Mummy is the best coaster. Universal Tour is worth the time. Much smaller than Orlando. Food and drink is obscenely overpriced.
It's awesome!!! There are many different rides that you'll want to ride over and over again. There is a good choice of restaurants and fast food places. It's a great idea to take studio tour (tram). It's a great place to visit for your family vacation since there's fun for all ages. The Animal Actor...
Fantastic experience, many attractions, wonderful and entertaining shows, amusing 3d rides. Dark arts show on Hogwart Castle is amazing!!!
It's very crowdy and the lines are long but we managed to ride everything and see all shows in one day (we visited in June and were there from 9 am till 10 pm) ...
Hogwarts Castle and town is worth everything. If you go on a busy day, the express pass is necessary. I am not one to buy extras but halfway through the day I had to buy them to avoid 90 minute waits. The castle light show is amazing! Do the studio tram tour first before it gets busy.
30 years from the last visit... Why did I wait soo long. Enjoyed bringing family for the first time. Everyone was excited and overjoyed. Thanks! Lines were all shorter than expected and even when filled, it went pretty fast. The tour around the park was great. Some old features and some new. I do r...
Fun when you have a pass because you can't do everything in one day
This can be done in one day, unless it's Christmas or Halloween. During those two (2) holiday seasons there is more things going on at the park. There is a outdoor mall that leads into the park with plenty of places to eat and shop. That reminds me of Downtown Disney.
It was lots of fun! Some of the rides are great others not so much. I would recommend the fast pass! Totally worth it. Down side is the overly priced food and the long lines. Definitely would go on the off season.
If you are visiting Horror nights at Universal Studios make sure to get the Express pass. Even though it is more expensive than the regular ticket, it is worth every dime you spent on it. If I would not have purchased it, I dont think i would have been able to do all mases and games in 5 hrs.
Been here twice and it's a blast with tons of things to do. Like it so much better than Disney land. Its a great place to spend a day with a group of friends. Its hella fun. The only thing I really disliked was the long lines.
Amazing experience of universal studios. Don t miss the studio tour. It s one of the best experiences. Rides are okay but the special shows of waterworks and special effects are top class.
Okay themepark. Nice rides. But to many People. Basicly you stand in line for 40-60 mins for 3 min ride..
Fantastic theme park to go, would recommend going during an off season otherwise the crowds make it 70% waiting in line 30% actually using rides.
Great ride staff and just pure greatness in general. My favorite ride is Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey. I will give you a walkthrough for some of the rides.
The Forbidden Journey: Calm but don t go on if you have heart problems.
Jurassic World: Calm ride giant drop that goes straight do...
This is a fun place to spend a day. If you go off of peak season you can catch all of the attractions and shows in one day. The app is a great way to see ride times and plan your day.
The Waterworld show was one of the highlights. Also the new Harry Potter themed area is excellent.
The bigges...
The castle was out of this world awesome carpentry nice woodwork inside. Snowy village was so cool.
We come every year. Kids love the park. Never get old.
Enjoyed my visit. The food and drinks were pretty good. Better than other parks
Fun to be there. Did not go inside but we had to take pictures at the Universal Globe. It was a great day.
We loved it! Brought back lots of good ol memories.
Excellent place to visit with family. Very crowded in summer.
My son and I enjoyed the VIP experience. Expensive, but totally worth it! We were able to see every show and go on every ride - some multiple times. Our tour guide was with us for about 6 hours and made sure we got to do what we wanted and was always able to get it to the front of the line and sho...
Very fun! Wait lines are long so plan to spend one whole day in the park
Studio tour is amazing, definitely a must do. Shows are amazing, don't miss any one. Rides are all right. They should make it more clear what is each ride like before entrance. I have motion sickness and the mummy ride made me ridiculously sick, was mislead by their attendant into feeling it's like ...
Haven't been here in over 8 years. So much has changed. What a great way to celebrate a birthday! The staff here were over the top helpful and friendly. Season Pass us reasonably priced and well worth it. Many more return trips in the future. Thanks Universal Studios for making an awesome destinatio...
Best place to be if you come to LA. It is free of cost and your kids will love it. I truly love this place. A must see
Friendly staff, prices inside are okay. Ride lines move quickly. Had an epic time, lots of parking. Go to the Halloween Haunt if you can in October!
Great place to visit. Better visit on regular weekdays because a lot of folks visit during weekends or holidays so you don't have to wait hours in line.
My new favorite is The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, makes you feel like you in the movie. Also do not miss the studio tour...
I love this park had a blast with my family we still manage to enjoy our time there. We rode the rides we wanted even though it seems packed there and took many pictures of the people cosplaying in the costumes. I been too every seasonal theme for this amusement park and will back here to create mor...
This was a impromptu decisions to go there but we loved it. I would definitely recommend Herry Potter ride over Jurassic Park and the park has a lot to offer for every age group. Before leaving make sure u have see the light show and bus tour.
I wish there were a few full size decent rollercoaster
We were on 10 May (th) and there were no need in express pass. Interesting and detailed Harry Potter's zone.
Great place if you're a movie fan! The tour gives you a glimpse behind the scenes and the movie themed rides are fun. Harry Potter fans will love that area. It doesn't have the history or quantity of rides as Disneyland nor the excitement level of Magic Mountain but it's worth a visit.
must see
Universal Studios Hollywood is a film studio and theme park in the San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles County, California. About 70% of the studio lies within the unincorporated county island known as Universal City while the rest lies within the city limits of Los Angeles, Californi...
The Express Pass is well worth the extra expense if you are limited on time! We loved seeing all the characters interacting with the guests!! A very memorable day!!
Great Time! Good place to spand a day in LA, spoiler harry potter ride is the most fun of all the rides
