I knew that the Warner Bros Studio did tours, but figured we wouldn't have enough time to go on one so we had a plan to just check out the studio store. While going through security, one of the guards stopped me to chat and see how our day was going. He let me know that they had a shorter tour plus something called the Superman Experience. My husband and I decided to check it out and I'm so glad we did! The guided tour was about an hour long and our tour guide Evelyn was great! She was entertaining and gave great fun facts about the studio. I really enjoyed this tour because we actually got to get off of the trolley and take photos and enter some of the sets. We even drove my the massive soundstages too! We started our tour in the Warner Bros museum and then made our way to the line to join a tour group. We got to see the sets from Abbott Elementary as well as the makeup trailers and ambulances from The Pitt (one of my personal favorites). We got to take a photo on the infamous orange Friends couch and in front of the waterfall from the opening credits. After the tour, we went inside to check out more movie memorabilia. They had another Friends photo op which was inside of Central Perk plus one from The Big Bang Theory. They had on set worn costumes from movies like Space Jam, MineCraft, Sinners and even My Fair Lady. They also had an actual working Central Perk Cafe where you could order food and drinks - I only bought a water, but next time we visit, I will definitely be ordering more! They also had one of the biggest gift shops I've seen completely dedicated to Friends - there were even rooms like Monica's kitchen and apartment - it was pretty impressive! Then we checked out the DC area which was also so cool - my husband was in geek heaven! They had all of the Batman costumes from each movie, plus the Batmobiles and motorcycles. There were Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Superman and Supergirl replicas too! The last part of our adventure concluded with the Superman Experience, but I will save that for another review. Overall, I thought the Warner Bros Studio Tour was awesome! My husband and I plan on bringing our daughter back from the longer tour soon! If you're looking for something fun to do in Burbank, I highly suggest check it out!

He didn't rush us as we looked at at the New York backlot (Brooklyn, Lower East Side, etc), soundstages, the set of a popular TV show (I won't say which one!), the bathroom where a lot of fights inside of bathrooms are shot, and the outside of the sound stages where Citizen Kane was shot, Rear Window (and scenes from Vertigo) were shot, scenes from the Godfather were shot and many other great and famous films. I also saw where William Holden's character fell in love with a fellow screenwriter in the movie Sunset Boulevard. We also saw some amazing props from the Transformers, Terminator, and Star Trek movies. For fans of The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston, we saw where the Red Sea parting scene was shot. My wife and I also got to hold a real Oscar for the 1953 movie War of the Worlds. And I sat on the Forrest Gump bench. Only seven people maximum can go on any one tour -- on a small cart --- so the feeling is personal (vs. being on a bus). My wife and I also went on the Warner Bros and Universal Studios tours. We thought this was the best studio tour. The tour itself was a little over 2 hours. (For parking, we found free parking on a side street across from the studio. Otherwise, we would have paid $20 to park in the studio's lot.)

We were taken to see inside an empty stage as well as inside a stage where props were being built. Our guide showed us movie clips indicating places where the scene or scenes were shot. My favorite was the big blue parking lot where the scene of the famous water separating in The Ten Commandments. The movie was done in the 50's and CGI was still a far fetched idea. Our tour guide showed a lot of enthusiasm and also quite entertaining. The tour lasted about two and a half hours which was well worth it. At the beginning before the tour, we were given ample time to watch segments of past movies which was enjoyable.

My family enjoyed the tour and had phrases of how great Steven and his team were. To top the great service we got, Steven even drove back to hotel that my family was staying in to bring back an iPad which one of my aunts left behind. Now that is beyond customer service!

However, Manuel handled things very professionally throughout our tour and was a flawless and safe driver making sure everyone felt comfortable and taken care of. I am also very grateful that he reminded us to bring a jacket as this was around 3:30pm for the start of our tour when it was really sunny but it quickly became freezing by 5:30ish in the evening. He definitely saved us from the cold by recommending us to grab our jackets! Overall a really positive experience as he did not shy away from providing more info and knowledge about Hollywood even to the VERY last minute as we approached the drop off point. Much appreciated and thanks again !

It was absolutely worth the 1 hour and 45 minute drive from our town! Parking: Free, plentiful, and conveniently close to the train station. Check-In & Service: We arrived early, and the check-in process was quick and easy. The staff were friendly and welcoming. After choosing our carts and loading our belongings, we had time to use the restroom before the ride began. It's easy to drive and if you don't feel like pedaling, the motor will do it for you -- no steering is required! Pro Tips Bring a Small Pillow This was a game-changer! We brought small pillows and placed them behind our backs, which significantly reduced vibration and made the ride much more comfortable. Thank you to the reviewer who suggested this--we had zero complaints. Bug Spray & Sun Protection Bring bug spray or insect repellent. The bugs weren't too bad during our visit, but it's nice to have. An umbrella can also provide extra shade if desired. Bring Water There is a cup holder on each cart, so staying hydrated is easy. Secure Loose Items Be careful when placing items in the cup holder. There's a small opening on one side, and smaller items can slip through. My bug spray fell out during the ride. Fortunately, there's also a basket available for purses and other belongings. Hair & Helmets If you have long hair, wear it down or in a very low ponytail so it fits comfortably under the helmet. Shoes Closed-toe shoes are highly recommended. Since you may be pedaling at times, it's possible to lose a loose-fitting sandal or flip-flop. Sunglasses Definitely bring sunglasses to protect your eyes from dust, wind, and the occasional bug. Restrooms & Snacks There is an opportunity along the route to purchase snacks and use the restroom (outhouse). Overall We had a fun time. One of our favorite parts was taking in the scenery, spotting native plants, and simply enjoying being outside. This was a unique experience and a memorable Father's Day outing that we'd happily do again

I watch TMZ literally faithfully everyday and what I miss i go to the TMZ channel on my TV. I was so disappointed. The commercials looked so fun. I booked the TMZ After Dark Tour, hyped it up, invited people, and really thought it was about to be a vibe. I played it off and still tried to enjoy myself, but honestly I was embarrassed. The only halfway fun part was the bus, and that was because of my group. First off, the TMZ worker let her friends (who didn't pay) on the bus while the rest of us paid $70. That already didn't sit right. Then the host... who thought it was a good idea to have a 70+ host who can barely walk running a nightlife tour? (Janice Dickerson) On top of that, she controlled the music. Some songs I could rock with, but others had us like "what is this?" and it took way too long to recover the vibe. Biggest issue: the bars. They were NOT inclusive. I'm all for trying new spots, but not when they're completely empty except for the bus patrons and two other people looking at all the Black and Hispanic people like "why are you here?" (Which someone actually asked my friend that) The energy was uncomfortable and unwelcoming the entire time. This is marketed as a fun, inclusive nightlife experience... and it's the complete opposite. Save your money and go literally anywhere else. Maybe try the Comedy tour might be better IDK. Look at the pic. Why take tours to a confederate bar?

Typically running about 45 minutes to an hour, the studio tour is a perfect break from escalators, lines, and walking around Universal. The guides are funny and engaging and though they usually touch on the same things, I find that each guide has a way of making the tour their own. I always enjoy going through the lot and getting a glimpse of what's being filmed, while also learning about the iconic movies, shows, and even music videos that have utilized the lot before. As a huge fan of Desperate Housewives, my favorite set is Colonial Street. While I'd love to see some updates or new things on the studio tour, having been on it more times than I can count I can still say it's my favorite ride and the thing I look forward to the most at USH.
