Universal Studios Hollywood June 2026 Visit

Recently visited Universal Studios Hollywood with my family. Yes the lines can be long especially during peak summer time, but many of the lines are indoors or have fans making the heat manageable. There are a good mixture of rides allowing individuals of all ages to find something they like. Walking through city walk is nice to stop by the cool shops you wouldn’t find anywhere else! I would definitely recommend visiting!

We needed more time to enjoy all rides

We thought that on weekdays there’s no crowd but I keep forgetting this place is the happiest place.

Totally disappointed! I expected more from the store tour; the parking was unnecessarily expensive, and the Harry Potter show was a joke.

It's just an amusement park, nothing more. You need to bring a lot of money. And you also need to have a lot of time because you have to wait in line for a long time.

Universal Studios - Experience worlds for young and old

This amusement park is entirely focused on family entertainment with everything that belongs in such a park: Adventure-themed tours, roller coasters, interactive experiences in a VR-generated environment. The regularly occurring studio tour is also recommended - it not only passes by various studios but also by several filming locations that should be very well known - such as the town hall with the legendary town hall clock from "Back to the Future" and many others. The Universal Studios certainly provide a "contrast program" to the Paramount Studio Tour - but it is still worth a visit. However, the question arises whether such an admission price is justified given the prices on the premises or if it could perhaps be a bit cheaper...

Great visit to Universal Studios California

Visited as a family with my elderly siblings. The whole experience, 3D & 4D rides and shows were highly entertaining. We didn’t do any of the large roller coasters.
