Excellent - Great Attraction Park. We did it with the skip the line pass where we went one day and it was enough we had time to do all the attractions and some even several times.

Worth the price - Despite the higher price, the express ticket that allows you to skip the line once for each Attraction (excluding Olivender) is highly recommended. Avoid queues with waits of up to 80 minutes in the sun and in scorching heat.... this allowed us to try all the attractions in just over half a day, and then redo (unfortunately with queue, but faster in the late afternoon) the attractions we preferred.

Great time! - We visited this park with kids from the age of 20 and chose the express tickets in advance. This has been worth the investment especially because you can visit the park and all the attractions in one day. And you never wait longer than 5 minutes when the average waiting time was half an hour. Fun and surprising 3d-4d attractions. We had a great time. Highly recommended to visit and afterwards you can still go along the city street just outside the park.

Skip the Line at Universal Studios - If you don’t like waiting in line (who does?) and you can afford it (it is on the pricey side), Skip the Line is a great enhancement to your Universal Studios experience, especially if it’s a hot, sunny day.

We had a super day - We only got to spend one day in universal studios Hollywood so the fast pass meant we got to go on every ride. It saved massive amounts of queues on a really hot day.

Skip the line was excellent and worth the money - I have to say that the “Skip the line” ticket was excellent and highly recommended for this attraction. I would love to see it be for a number of rides on the day not one STL ticket for each show. There were some I did not want to do but a couple I would have done twice. Just a bit restrictive. The should be a STL entry lane at the main entrant e as that was a bit confusing. Overall though very good.

Fun, exciting and a bit overwhelming - It was fun and exciting. My 9 year old’s favourite ride was kung fu panda, while my 6 year old’s was water world. My 9 year old is sensitive to noise and found water world overwhelming but sat through the whole thing. We got quite wet! Limited food choices and expensive- but what do you expect!

Awesome, but half of what you get in Orlando - Universal was awesome! But, there's a but.. We went to Universal Orlando a few years ago. And that is in a different league compared to Hollywood. While the price is pretty much the same. In Orlando you get twice as much. But what Universal does is top notch. The way they bring you in another world is extraordinary. Express line is a must have. Do a few rides without early in the morning. And do them again in the afternoon with Express. It was summer but the heat was manageable and so were the crowds
