Universal Studios Hollywood

Walking through the gates of Universal Studios is like walking straight into a movie.  There are no auditions.  There are no casting calls.  Just pass through the turnstiles, and you're there. 

One can instantly feel the magic of Hollywood... building into an excitement that is nearly uncontrollable.  And this is even before experiencing the plethora of attractions that await. 

Universal Studios most decidedly had the entire family in mind when designing this theme park.  There are multiple shows, highlighting everything from celebrity animals to high-speed water stunts that literally have you on the edge of your seat. 

I can honestly say without any pause that the Studio Tour is worth the price of admission in itself.  Seeing actual sets that you've seen at home while watching your favorite television show is an unforgettable experience, but you never know what may await around the next curve.  You will be exposed everything from floods to Jaws, and then Godzilla in 360 3-D. 

And Universal Studios does not stop there. The rides that are offered draw in the entire family... either while hopping on the Simpsons or Jurassic Park rides, or taking the thrill seekers on the Revenge of the Mummy.  

The newest thrill ride at Universal Studios is the Transformers:  The Ride -3D.  Utilizing media and flight simulation technology, the rider will feel like they are realistically a part of the action.  You are totally immersed into the sights... the sounds... the action... and the total world of Transformers like never before! 

While in the Hollywood area, a trip to Universal Studios is an absolute must!
