We did spend 2 days at Universal Studios Hollywood so that definitely made a difference as well (since we didn’t feel stressed to pack everything in and could wait out long lines by getting a snack or taking pics with characters). Where to Stay Near Universal Studios Hollywood . There’s TONS of hotels in Los Angeles – honestly so, so, so ...
While the park only takes 1 day to do it all, if you have the time and money and this is a one-and-done or once in a great while trip for a family with kids, take the 2 days. School in my district releases for summer on May 31 (I live about 90 mins away but most schools in Southern California have the same or very similar schedules).
Re: How long did you spend at Universal Studios Hollywood? 7 years ago. I agree you could spend a full day or certainly, as many people have posted above, at least 6 hours. The "World Famous Studio Tour" (tram ride) lasts an hour and that's not counting walking to where it starts or waiting in line for it.

Of course, it’s not always easy to adjust your travel plans, but if you can take this into account when planning your visit to LA, try to avoid visiting Universal Studios on weekends and during school holidays. Even if you are traveling in the high season as we were, some days will be busier than others. For example, we had three full days in LA, s...
Our next tip will help you to make the most out of your day at Universal Studios Hollywood. If you want to visit as much as possible in a day, be sure to arrive as soon as the park opens and stay until it closes. The actual opening times depend on the season. But no matter the season, the quietest time at the park is the first hour or two after it ...
If you hate the idea of having to spend hours and hours queuing at each and every single ride, show, and attraction, upgrade to an Express ticket. It’s quite a lot more expensive than a regular ticket, but it gives you fast-track access everywhere (once per attraction and per day). If you want to have unlimited express access everywhere and as many...
Normally, you can just get your tickets at the entrance of Universal Studios LA. However, the lines are usually so long that you can easily waste half an hour or even more just to get a ticket. This doesn’t include the security check or the lines to actually get inside the park. So we highly recommend that you book your tickets in advance. You rece...
If you want to enjoy your day at Universal Studios Hollywood to the fullest, bring as little stuff with you as possible. As you will see below, we do recommend packing some items, but for the rest – don’t take anything you don’t absolutely need. First, they have an airport-style security check at the entrance. They check your bags and even make you...
Now that I told you not to take a big bag, I have to add that it’s helpful to have some water and snacks with you. Ideally, you take a refillable water bottle and some snacks for a quick lunch (small snacks that can fit in a small bag ;)). Of course, you won’t survive the whole day on just a few snacks. But if you can avoid having to eat during the...
There are lots of things to do at Universal Studios. Unless you are visiting on an extremely quiet day or pay extra for the fast-track tickets, it’s quite unlikely that you will be able to see everything in a day. On the other hand, you may not really be interested in everythingeither… So be sure to do some research on which shows, rides, and attra...
If there is one thing that distinguishes Universal Studios Hollywood from all other theme parks, it’s the World Famous Studio Tour(aka The Backlot Tour). You would almost forget it these days, but Universal Studios Hollywood is a working film studio where movies are made. So no visit here would be complete without getting a bit behind the scenes an...
One of the must-sees at Universal Studios Hollywood is their most popular show – WaterWorld. It’s a really cool show with lots of action and special effects and is always fun to see. However, there is always a big chance that you will get wet. They have seats in two colors indicating the area where you are guaranteed to get wet. But it doesn’t work...
Universal Studios Hollywood is a very big theme park. So prepare to walk a lot. At the end of the day, you will have done well over 10,000 steps… So be sure to wear comfortable shoes! Also, they should sit tight on your feet so that you don’t have to worry about losing them on one of the rides. It’s definitely not a good idea to wear flip-flops whe...
This guide is really helpful for deciding whether or not to purchase it. Plan to arrive at the Universal Studios Hollywood parking structure about 30-40 minutes before opening time. You’ll need to wait in line to pay, park and then walk through CityWalk. That process took us 25 minutes on an extremely quiet day.
The 1 day with express would cut down you time in lines. It can be very worth it if you didn't want to spend two days at the park. Short lines means you can do more in one day. We recently did everything in one day with short lines. I think it depends on the age of the youngsters and what kind of attractions you want to see/go on.
6 days ago · Universal Studios Hollywood sells both 2-day and 3-day tickets with a fairly low incremental cost (versus single-day tickets). We recommend doing 2-day tickets, rather than 3-day ones. Three full days is overkill, but we love doing an evening one night followed by arriving for rope drop on day two and staying the entire day.
