About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 14elizad0 contributionsIncredible DayHad an amazing time! The Harry Potter, transformers, and mummy rides were my favorites. Don’t miss jurassic park if you love thrills! I enjoyed 7 rides and 3 shows in one day, with waterworld being a must see. Lines were long but moved quickly, and the food was decent though pricey. Parking took some time, but overall, an exciting day. Can’t wait to go back!Written December 9, 2024
- emmadT4979ID0 contributionsTotally worth the moneyWe had the best day on this package. Our tour guide was amazing, so knowledgeable and with a great sense of humour. The day ran so smoothly. We did everything we wanted to do at least once. Saw the show and had a great time. Would definitely recommend.Written November 30, 2024
- suzannemQ6595IX0 contributionsLove Halloween Horror NightsHalloween Horror night is a must for anyone that loves Halloween. Last year we attended the Orlando HHN and this year we decided to try HHN in Hollywood. Must say Hollywood had heaps less people we attended 30th October and 31st October which wasn’t too bad but if you want to experience every haunted house you either have to get a fast pass or we chose to attend 2 nights which worked out much cheaper than fast pass. Be prepared to walk a lot and wait in line, but for us this is all part of the experience. The scare zones were great and each of the haunted houses were unique. We loved ghostbusters and A Quiet Place and Terror Tram was great. We thought Halloween Horror Night was amazing and can’t wait to see what they have next year.Written November 16, 2024
- Alex M0 contributionsVIP experience we’ll worth the cost,, quick access to rides and tour guide educates you to behind the scenes history.Our professional guide during the VIP tour was Brian, I greatly appreciated his professionalism and positive attitude during the tour. I was very impressed with the food that was included with the VIP tour, the lunch was particularly delicious with a diverse selection of salads and prime rib fresh seafood and delicious dessert. The coffee served at breakfast was delicious. The VIP pass allowed us to quickly bypass main lines and in one day we were able to see all the attractions. The park is easy to navigate, we took an Uber , there was a defined Uber drop off and pick up point.Written November 15, 2024
- DutchMachine0 contributionsNice, but small parkReally enjoyed the park. Most of the rides were fun. Some of the rides can use an overhaul (minions and simpsons). Wish the park had more rollercoasters (can't wait for F&F coaster). Some staff members weren't overly friendly (at the popcorn stands) The Studio tour was cool. The Mario area is meh. The theme is nice, the ride is okay, but the upcharge on some mini games is outrageous. Would be nice if the stores were open longer after park hours so you can shop without being rushed.Written November 15, 2024
- laurentmT2791JO0 contributionsAmazing First-Time Experience!I had an incredible first visit to Universal Studios Hollywood! The park is well-designed, and the rides are thrilling, especially the Harry Potter and Jurassic World attractions. The Studio Tour was a highlight—it’s so cool to see real movie sets! The staff were friendly, and the whole place had an exciting vibe. Perfect for movie fans and thrill-seekers alike. Highly recommend for a fun, memorable day!Written November 8, 2024
- DebbieN4470 contributionsOnly real scare was the cost on all levels 😱Total rip off! Ridiculous queues, states you must buy park ticket & this pile of crap too! They never scanned or checked park tickets, over $700 wasted. Plus the park ticket. Family of 4 £1000! Literally queues so long you could only do 3 things. Clearly pure greed to sell fast passes for another £400, but obviously everyone had the same idea & those queues ridiculous. So still couldn’t do even half the shows. Not staffed enough so queue jumping & badly organised incompetent queue heading. The scariest thing was the aches, pains of shuffling the night away & the cost of them!Written November 1, 2024
- relianta0 contributionsDisappointing and Over PricedHadn’t been to HHN in 5 years. Took the family 10/27 must agree with many others just how disappointing it was. Just seems to be a money grab now. We have been to many, many HHN events, but this one will be our last. I can remember when it used to be really good, now it’s just……blah. Every year it gets more expensive and the quality of the entire event keeps going down. No more, I’m done.Written October 30, 2024
- Dant68170 contributionsfun experienceUniversal is a great theme park. It's less about the studios and more about the rides. The studio tour itself hasn't changed in many years. It's more like an interactive ride. Def worth a visit if you're in LA.Written October 28, 2024
- 754danat0 contributionsTerrible humiliating experienceThis is the worst experience I have ever experienced at a park.. I am disabled woman and I had to pay for my own wheelchair when the park was supposed to accommodate.. I cried three times because the rides were so small I couldn't even fit in them I was humiliated multiple times by staff and just telling me I can't fit they should accommodate everybody and every size. This is the worst experience I've ever experienced at a park Disneyland was by far the best park I've ever been to they accommodate for everybody and everyone is able to ride on the rides.. and we paid a lot of money a lot of money to be treated with such disgust from the park from staff and being humiliated..Written October 28, 2024
- Hub_Trip20 contributionsWorth seeing.Great experience. Worth its price in weekends. The express ticket allows to save a lot of time and to see all the attractions .Written October 27, 2024
- dragonr6630 contributionsSave your poor back the constant mile walksWell everything was designed nicely and looked great, the scare actors in the houses were really predictable and they had the staff in robes with the guide lights? That really took my out of it as they were at every corner and it felt like I saw them more than the scarers. Another point with the houses is you had to walk a mile just to wait in line for almost half an hour, why were they only letting people in in groups of 8, even Knott's scary farm knew to keep it moving to save visitors back pains. And in the main areas like Hogwarts, I didn't see one death eater, one of the main reasons I wanted to go, and the dragon wasn't above gringotts either, very disappointed with that but the fish and chips in the tavern were worth it. The scare actors didn't really come out till 8PM when it was advertised as 7PM, and there weren't very many, they only brought the big birds on stilts out for a show before leaving immediately after too. I'm just happy I got a free scares from the chainsaw punkz, cute and very aggressive ❤️🩹. One last part on the transformers ride, there was way too much walk up for a minute long ride and when I got up there with my dad the ride broke down and they didn't tell us how long it'd take until 10 minutes of waiting at the gate to get on. Not common but that really put the hurt on me. Overall the experience was kinda dull and not very accommodating for people with easily strained backs, or people who actually wanna get scared without walking a mile or two for a predictable horror house. All the love for the chainsaw punkz who basically carried the place but I will not be returningWritten October 24, 2024
- YoungDude19990 contributionsNot a patch on the Universal Studios of the 90’s!Universal Studios Hollywood is in pretty bad shape at present,Jaws and Jurassic World are currently closed due to maintenance The tram tour is pathetic ,most of the main sets are out of bound’s including Court House Square and Colonial Street the latter has been closed for months. The Jaws ride past is no miss though but they still have Spielberg talking about it and when it does work if that’s the best they could come up with that is mighty sad but I have always thought he is overrated and laughable how he admits to trespassing while at the Studios as the guide warns up if we leave the tram we would be trespassed for life shame he wasn’t as that would have saved us from the awful War of The Worlds and the 747 crash site that nobody on the tour has any interest in. Stuff covering up The Bates Motel for Horror Nights ,no reason the hoardings couldn’t be moved during the day and the final ride through before F+F Super Charged has to be the biggest low point ,crappy looking sets from a movie called NOPE I have never heard and don’t think anyone else on the tram had either! Jupiter’s Claim needs evicting without notice! Waterworld is ok and now the only theatre style show. All in all USH is well over priced and the powers that be need to look into improving it quick and wasn’t over busy.Written October 24, 2024
- JPODAY0 contributions$$, UNSAFE GROUP AND HUNGOVER RIP GUIDE = Knotts Scary Farm next timeMy daughter and I just completed a RIP tour for the third time ( first was Universal Florida) and second/ third were Universal Hollywood. The first two RIP tours were excellent, safe, and amazing experiences. Sadly this time was not such an experience. Our tour guide was "M". Two members of our group were 15 minutes late - no big deal- but a sign of things to come. We started with the buffet. After the buffet the same these same two were 15 minutes late again- showing up with big cans of beer and reeking of marijuana. During the tour, these two individuals were visibly drunk/ high and began harassing others in the group- as well as scare actors and generally ruining the experience for the rest of the group. At one point members of our group were sharing that someone was smoking marijuana in the bathroom during one of our early breaks in the tour. This couple then joined the group again, reeking of weed. Our guide "M" honestly was not a great host and seemed checked out . She was informed of the unsafe couple but they remained until finally removed from our group by security toward the end of the tour- after ruining a majority of the experience of the RIP tour. We have no plans on doing RIP again- or VIP- which we have done in the past. This was an unsafe and unnecessary bad RIP tour. Our tour was overshadowed by aggressive drunk/ high people that i felt the need to keep my teenage daughter away from. I didn’t feel like M represented RIP or Universal or HHN very well and allowed the group to be unsafe and not very enjoyable. It felt like she was phoning it in- and even told us they had a cast party the night before and everyone was “tired”. Probably won’t be backWritten October 20, 2024
- Scotty1962-120 contributionsHalloween Horror Night DisappointmentWe paid for the Express pass for Halloween Horror Nights. Pass was $319.00 each. I am glad we paid for the pass because we did get to all the attractions that we wanted to get to. The negative was there are 8 haunted houses. They were all essentially the same, nothing scary nothing interesting. The park was so oversold that they were rushing you through each attraction. You could see what was coming because they were pushing you through. I was shocked that Universal did such a poor job with these Haunted Houses nothing at all seemed to be creative or original. Everyone in our group of 4 agreed. Would never go back or recommend it to anyone.Written October 16, 2024

We always rate this park much better than Disneyland, mainly because the wait times are much better and the rides are always working, while Disneyland has massive issues with broken down rides. This time, the Transformers ride broke and was operating at half capacity, it took an hour to get through, and it was irritating. Then the Waterworld show was cancelled in the afternoon , i don't think so. People are paying over 100 dollars to get into this park and ANYTHING being cancelled is not acceptable.
Then we get to the food and shopping, outrageous come to mind. The food is absolutely unreasonable, so we avoid it at call costs but the shopping has become an absolute outrage, 14.00 for a keychain, not happening. these are made in China and cost next to nothing to make, this is what we call gouging the customer - again, not acceptable. Parking, now 28 dollars, I think not. When you have already spend over 100 dollars each, now we have raised the parking to this level ? Again, management needs a real adjustment if they think 28 dollars is anywhere near acceptable.
Sadly, unless they get it together, we will not be spending any more money at this park, there are many people in this country that are barely getting by and these prices make it impossible for them to come here. We are not in this group but do believe that gouger the public in an absolute disgrace. Time for some changes !

Recently spent a day here while on a family trip to Disneyland. Our third visit to Universal and our first in 4 years. Other than the Wizarding World of Harry Potter it was very much same old, same old (our last visit was one month before the opening of Harry Potter or probably would have had the same reaction to it). The backlot tour features the same tired gags and set visits (Universal has made many movies since Jaws and The Grinch so how about something new??). Desperate Housewives has been off the air for years so do we really need to visit Wisteria Lane again? The tour guides are clearly on one long audition to be cast in something. The majority of rides are all simulations where you get jostled in your chair while a screen projects something. They just change themes occasionally (Shrek is now Despicable Me). Jurassic World was not operating which is unfortunate because it would have been an actual ride. Everything in the park is very expensive ($8.95 for a butter beer in Hogsmeade which is essentially Cream Soda!). Staff are unmotivated and uncaring. Park closes early (6 pm) making it difficult to see all the shows. All in all not really worth the cost or the drive if you are staying in the Disney area.

My wife and I visited on January 27, 2020. Fun. The park opens at 10:00, we arrived at 10:30, and it was already crowded, including plenty of kids. I asked an employee why it was crowded on a off-season Monday and he said many people treat Monday as an extension of the weekend. He suggested that T-Th are the best off-season days to visit. That said, the tour of the studio was awesome. The Skull Island, Bates Motel, and Jaws stops were cool. In the park itself, we visited the Animal Actors, Walking Dead, Special Effects, and Water World attractions. They were great.

I hope you had the chance to see our Raptor Encounter, as our Raptor Blue is always ready to meet (and not eat) new people.
We hope to see you again soon!

Like their Halloween event but not as bad. For Halloween, you will enter the park right when they open and lines will be 60-90 min. Within an hour of the event being open, the lines will be up to 2.5 hours. Universal should be ashamed of themselves for the greed they exhibit. To have people pay so much money and only be able to go on 2-4 mazes the entire evening is just wrong. I am convinced that the fire department would shut this event down of being overcrowded but they have their OWN Fire Department, so nothing will be shut down. The place is going to have a major disaster one day and a lot of people are going to get hurt because there are just too many people in that place to exit 4 turn stalls. God forbid there is ever a fire or earthquake;
I have complained to Universal about the safety issues more than once.
I will save a copy of this message for the day when a disaster hits them and people are trampled on. Do not bring your little ones to this park. It's not safe.

Went to Universal in December 2019 for a guys trip and had a blast. We didn’t have any skip the line stuff and still had no problem hitting every ride during the day. The Hogwart’s ride is by far the most popular so we did a run for that first thing and then just looked to see what ride had the shortest wait time and headed there.
The park has excellent WiFi coverage so download their app and you can see wait times etc.
One piece of advice, if you buy clothing, try it on at the store. I bought a shirt a size larger than I normally wear and when I got back home couldn’t even get it past my shoulders. Totally my fault for not trying it on there.
As it was December the park was decked out in Christmas decorations and they had The Grinch there and do a tree lighting show at night too. Quite well done.

The lines are too long and they let in too many people: no bueno!!!!! Covid infection rates are spiking and we were packed in there like sardines.
We bought the tickets through the official website: $134 of pure robbery… we were there around 9:20 am and able to do one ride. As people started coming in the lines were just too much: even my two 16 year old sons gave up after two rides….. i expected a better time for the money we spent. Big disappointment.
Universal Studios you are way too greedy: let less people in so they can actually enjoy the experience!

Really enjoyed the resort and learning more about how movies are made. For adults I think it needs to be a little bit cheaper than children because there is more for kids than adults to be honest. Overall it’s a good day out for a couple/family.

It was unbelievably overcrowded. Possibly 300% overloaded. Wait times was 2+ hours on all rides and express tickets sold out. They also closed down all single rider lines early in the morning to accommodate oversold express tickets. Most horrible experience ever. Why would anyone pay 300$ for this including express when Disney offers much more for less and more meaningful crowd control. Best ride in town Resistance has only 90 minutes when mediocre ride times 3 hours in this park. This is week of Dec 28th 21.

A real ripoff - 140$ (560$ for 4!) to spend the whole day waiting inline and just a few rides completed. What a waste of time and money!
There are indeed very few attractions for the number of tickets sold, hence completely overcrowded ; and even less are hardly worth the wait. Quality is overall quite low, queues have virtually no animation or decor making the wait boring.
All waiting times are systematically underestimated as all “express” folks will freeze the general queue as they proceed, and they are many! We were always standing still with the queue not progressing ; 60’ wait time announced on entering, ending over 180’ actual time!!! Never seen anything like this !
Plus on many attractions you have to leave your bag in (tiny) lockers (sometimes for a fee!) to access the tour and you finish your waiting 1h in the heat with no water. A real nightmare!
To complete the picture, without any mention of maximum height, and after 3h of wait I had to step out of the Harry Potter ride because the restraining bar was pushing hard on my shoulders and the attendant pushed down even more, arguing that it should go 2 clicks further! What kind of entertainment is this ? Torture ?
The park used to be really worth it 30years ago for movie enthusiasts, but now I do not recommend this park at all, unless you are ready to spend 300$ per person to get express pass. Never, ever again as far as I’m concerned.
Save your money and go to the beach! Or go to Disneyland Paris or in any Europe park where things are far better organized and the guys know how to make your experience enjoyable, even in the crowds.

Purchased nearly $500 in tickets in the beginning of the year through a special groupon deal....I contacted support to see if they would refund or extend my ticket beyond a year as everyone in my group is immunocompromised. At first I was told no and then the person admitted they don'tknow anything about my ticket type. I kept contacting them to have policy reviewed and no response for weeks now. They haven't done anything with my ticket type and I may have to eat that cost, which is especially difficult as I have been furloughed since early April.
Update August
I have been in touch with customer support who are attempting to rectify the situation. Appreciate the prompt replies and dedicated customer service.

Has anyone used GoCity to purchase Universal Studios Hollywood tickets? I would l like to purchase tickets through them but don't want any trouble when I get to the park.

Hi, we paid on the day. You pay slightly more.

When you get to the park, you have to go through a line to get in to either purchase tickets or to pick up your tickets that you purchased online, then you proceed to the security line. It’s really quick and easy. I very highly recommend that you purchase the fast passes. They are expensive, but SO WORTH IT!!! I also recommend that if you can take an Uber to the park, it will make your life easier. Make sure you go on the Simpsons ride and the Transformers ride!! HAVE FUN!!!😁😁😁😁

How busy is this place the week between Xmas and NY?
Written September 3, 2019
It’s always busy around that area. As if the drive in wasn’t bad enough. It’s usually warm year around there and doesn’t see what a lot the country calls winter months. Therefore, it usually stays pretty packed.
