Your VIP guide is my boyfriend 😊 made me so excited to see him on here haha
Oh really?! Then we heard some cute and funny stories about you. 😂 All in good fun tho 🥰👌🏾
@@thequeeng2282 Oh! Well, as long as the stories entertained lol. He’s a huuuuge movie nut and was so excited to become a VIP guide. He had just started tram tours before promoted to VIP. He has information for days about all things film and park related. Really happy you enjoyed him 😊
Kponl😊
What’s the price for the VIP
Thanks for the tips! Very helpful!
very helpful, thank you for the vid I'm considering this too.
Ayyy this is a fun video, keep going.🤠
Thank you! 💜💜
Very helpful!
This is very helpful! I would like to go there to visit Nintendo World for my 25 birthday and I was intrigued about the VIP experience which overall seems pretty neat! I'm more than confident to buy it now! Thank you so much and greetings from Mazatlán, Mexico!
Mazatlan!! I wish I had recorded my trip when I was out there. I had such a good time! But anyways, glad the video helped. Have a fantastic birthday! 🥳
Helpful video! Just purchsed my VIP!
Nicely done video my lady!
Love the music ❤❤ and I'm still jealous as hell right now that y'all got to go haha glad y'all had a awesome time there tho
Ha! Next time!
That’s crazy! I did the VIP tour in January for my Bday and they let us off the trolley at the Jaws set! We got to experience the shark attack from the normal view on the trolley to the backstage view where the gas lines are they proper the shark! We didn’t get off at the War of the Worlds set 😩 but walking about jaws was amazing! Love the VIP tour. Love Universal Studios
Thank you for letting me know.😁
Great video! Love the music!
I was a VIP tour guide in Orlando around 2014-2015. Most fun job ever.
WHY ONLY FOR 1 YEAR WERE YOU A VIP TOUR GUIDE THAT JOB SEEMS LIKE SUCH A FUN JOB TO SEE ACTORS ALL DAY AND SEE DIFFERENT SCENES OF MOVIES OR SHOW BEING SHOT IN DIFFERENT FAKE LOCATIONS OR WHAT NOT HOPEFULLY YOUR STILL WORKING AT UNIVERSAL IN GENERAL
I always wanted to go to universal studios but I still haven’t. Thanks for making and sharing this awesome experience.
You will be huge!!!! A big CZcamsr star ⭐
So Dope
Ty
I loved your video !! So informative and entertaining. I would love to take the VIP tour with my dad ; who will visit US for the first time. Do you know if there are VIP tours available in Spanish ?? Greetings from Mèxico !!!
Yay! I’m glad I could help. 🤓 And yes, you need to call to book your VIP tour and you can request a Spanish speaking tour 🥰
Very informative video and EXACTLY what i was looking for! Did you take pics with the characters while with your guide (did they wait for u) or was that after your tour was done? Planning to go in October and i really wanted to meet mario & luigi but i heard vip skips all characters.
VIP technically does skip all VIP characters. But, really depends on your guide and your group. My guide stated that it was best to do that stuff on your own time, as to not make the rest of the group wait on you. So that’s what I did. I got my pictures with Mario & Luigi after the tour. You can always dip off on your own and catch up with your group afterwards. 👌🏾
@THEQueenG22 thank u so much! I really appreciate u. Ill plan to do that then!
@@thequeeng2282if you go do your own thing for a minute such as visit SMW how do you catch back up with everyone. Is there a meeting place or area. My plan is to start the day with Mario land. Any suggestions
Appreciate the video and insight. I’m doing the VIP with my daughter in a few weeks and had a question. When you get to the park do you go straight to the VIP room even if out your is in the afternoon? Thanks
Thanks! And no, you do not have to go straight to VIP. You are free to roam the park and do whatever. 👌🏾 They just ask that you check in on time prior to your tour. ☺️
Thank you for the video.
How many attractions did you do with the VIP ?
We’ll do the VIP for the first Time in october with our son (age 7).
Very cool! Ur gonna have so much fun! Our tour guide said we would be with him for 6-7 hours. We ended up hanging out with him closer to 8 hours. We hit all of the major (big) attractions. Quite a few of the not so big attractions and one show. 👌🏾
Cool video, appreciate the insight! I’m looking into booking a VIP tour for an upcoming visit but I’m on the fence about the schedule, which time slot did you pick for yours?
I was with a group who wanted to sleep in a bit, grab brunch, etc….and didn’t mind staying until the park closed. So we picked a 12:30pm tour time. 👌🏾
@@thequeeng2282 Got it! Appreciate it. Couple more questions, 1) what time did the park closed on the date you chose for your tour? 2) Do you know if you can use your VIP badge to get on rides prior to the tour if you choose a late start?
@@xboxmaniac90 The park closes at 8:30pm at Universal Studios Hollywood. You can use your VIP badge for attractions at any time of the day for the day you made your reservation for the tour.
@@thequeeng2282 thank you!!!
There is an extra cost if you want your own guide vs being with other people. Also, when you have your own guide, you can tell the guide what YOU want to do vs them picking what you get to do. There’s a lot more to it but that’s it in a nutshell.
How much is the extra cost?
So how long is the actual tour and how much time is left for you to check the park on your own after it? Also, if you decide not to take the tour can you still have the breakfast and lunch buffets? I personally dont care much about the tour but the fact that you can ride all the rides with no wait at all, wondering if you can do that if you skip the tour from the morning and rush to Super Nintendo world and ride Mario Kart as many times as you want
Thank you for the great video. How does it work for the attractions while on the tour? Does the guide select the rides and order? Is it appropriate for children (like ages 10-13)? I am trying to decide for a family trip with my mother (late 60s) and my children for late May.
Yes, the guide picks the attractions. Based upon the time of day you go and how busy the park is. But you will get to ride all of the major attractions. 10-13, and for late 60’s I would say, absolutely yes. Cuts out all of the waiting in line times. Especially if you go during park peak times.
@@thequeeng2282 an we skip rides? My kids will be scared on jurassic world…
@@pinkbudgetinggirl5520 you do not have to go on all the rides. You can wait with the tour guide while other guests go on the rides. Riding attractions is not mandatory 👌🏾
Talking Mario and Luigi makes me Cry! I would hug them and also for the program of super Nintendo world, I will sing there in the stage for the future year! :') at 8:16
Hi! I found this super helpful. Now I wanted to know is super mario last on the tour? If so reservations for dinner would be best right? Lmk. And thanks!
Yes and yes 😉
Not sure if I missed it but where/how exactly did you purchase the VIP packages? Was it organised before entering or on the day? My family and I are planning to visit next month and this would be great to do
You can purchase VIP tickets directly on Universal Studios Hollywood’s website. It is one of the options available when you go to purchase tickets 🤓
Bower junior is my favorite
What's the best time of day to schedule the vip tour? Can you ride the bowlers ride line free after the tour is over or only once with the tour? Thanks!
The best time really depends on your priorities and what you want to get out of your day. The tour is about 7 hours and the park closes at 8pm. You can absolutely do anything you missed or do anything again after the tour. Your VIP badge gives you access to Express Pass Lanes on all attractions and shows. If you want to do stuff more than twice or do things you didn’t get to do on the tour, I would book an early morning reservation for your VIP tour. 👌🏾
Thanks for this. Love it. So the only queue you had to line up for was the Mario karts…..would you recommend still getting this for a 6 year old? Seems so….
Sooooo…. I don’t have kids. Lol. BUT, I think this might be too long of a day for a 6 year old….a lot of information they wouldn’t care to listen to…lol. Probably just the “express lane” pass would be best for small kids. But then again, I’m not a child expert. I can say tho, while waiting in the VIP lounge area…I did not see a lot of small children. In fact, I didn’t see any. 🤷🏾♀️
@@thequeeng2282 thanks for the feedback. Noted on the express pass. :)
Not sure if this was only on your VIP experience, but I’ve seen many other vids that show an express lane for Mario Kart & that you could go as many times as you like, skipping the line.
@@RS-pf3lx there is an express lane option that you can pay for. But it is limited to time slots available. But yes, technically you can go as many times as times are available. But the time slots are spread out. I believe possible max times could be up to 3 times on a ride. Depends on the day and crowd 👌🏾💜
Hi! How about the time to enjoy Nintendo Land and the other attractions with the VIP experience? It’s anything get missing? Thank you!
Hello there. 💜 I’m not sure I understand your questions. As far as other attractions, you will do all of the major attractions. But not all of the other attractions. I’m pretty sure, if you read previous comments on this video, you might get all of your questions answered. 👍🏾🙂
I am visiting next week , so is it worth it paying for the vip !?
Excellent video!! Did you have to tip your tour guide? If so, how much?
Thank you! 💜 And no, we didn’t “have” to tip our tour guide. They are definitely not expecting it. But we most definitely did, such a good job and well deserved!
@@thequeeng2282 Thanks! I agree, good focused detail to a group should be appreciated!
Cool. I'll be going next year and will note Queen22 said....
Yay! Be sure to let me know how much fun you have 💜💜
@@thequeeng2282 over green & purple colored cocktails!!
Thank for this fantastic and very helpful video! My family and I will be going next month for my son's 21st birthday. He is a huge fan of Nintendo World. I think VIP is worth it.
I’m going to universal in 2 weeks and I have a question about the vip tour, once you start the tour with your guide are you stuck with them for the full day until the tour is over or can you leave and meet back with them for example going to a restaurant or checking out some gift shops or if you want to go back and do another ride more than once, thanks in advance.
You are free to bounce off and do your thing. The tour will continue. And you can arrange to meet back up with the tour if you like 👍🏾
Sounds great, thanks for the reply!
Question our reservation is for 10:30am July 13, what time should we get to the park. Also around what time is lunch ?
Get to the park at whatever time you like. If you want to look around a bit or hang out in the lounge, just get there a bit earlier. Lunch will be determined by your tour guide
"Months in advance" reservarions begin in the morning you want to be there as early as possible.
I will do the VIP tour with my children and wife, we have it for the late morning around 11:15, what time does the park open?, our idea is to arrive as soon as they open and go directly to Nintendo Word to make the reservation for toad cafe for to be able to buy something there because that is not included in the VIP tour, as well as buy the power bands and do some other attractions before our tour start, what do you recommend we do before the tour, will we stay until the park closes?
That’s a very good idea. I’m not exactly sure what time the park opens during this season. I’m guessing 9am. But you should def double check. Maybe check out a few small attractions since mostly the major attractions are included in the tour. And after the tour, you should have an hour or maybe two before the park closes 👌🏾
Is it possible to snag a Toadstool Cafe reservation since you are on a VIP tour and not able to go straight down to Mario World first? I've heard these reservations go quickly. I too have a VIP ticket your planned and was curious.
Yes. Make your reservation at Toadstool cafe and catch up with your your tour later, if you want to do that. Yes, Toadstool cafe reservations go by REALLY fast. Just let your tour guide know , so you can arrange to meet up after.
So to make the reservation you have to go quick to put in the waiting list at certain time? Or how that works thanks
@@veesdcal I would download the app and see how soon you can make a reservation if you have a date in mind of going to Universal. Toadstool Cafe fills
up really quickly
What is exactly at the Toadstool cafe? Is it a restaurant?
@RJ-dd4lj
It's a restaurant in the Super Mario World. We visited this past May. Reservation only, and it goes by fast.
Hi! Did you stay at a hotel and what was it? Thanks! I’m planning to go and we are looking for hotels.
Hello! Yes, we stayed at the “W” hotel. Affordable and about 10 min ride to the park. The tad bit closer hotels were all booked up when we tried. But the W hotel was just fine. 💜
I will check it, thank you for your reply!!
one question, how long to the tours last, I'm going in a week and am getting the VIP pass, I just want to know if after the tour I will still have time to go on all the rides again
6-7 hours depending on your tour guide and your group.
@@thequeeng2282 thanks for replying quick
We will go with our boy 14, and planning use VIP tour
What is the best time to select the VIP tour ?
It’s really up to you. When it comes to VIP all times are good. It just really depends on if you think you would like to explore other areas not covered in VIP. You can book a late appt and go early and explore the park before the tour. Or book an early appt and explore the park after the tour. Or if you have no intentions on seeing anything other than what’s on VIP, it doesn’t matter. 👌🏾👌🏾
In vip express lane . We need to have minimum 12 people? We are 6 in total that too with 2 kids (5 &10 years each) how much will it cost in total
You can show up with 2 people if you want. They will put other people with your group, unless there isn't another group during the time period you chose. :)
You did a great job on the review. Time wise, how long is the tour? I scheduled one for 12:45pm, Just curious how long is it before I go on my own.
The tour is anywhere between 6-8 hours. Depends on your group. 👌🏾
What is the duration of the tour? How many rides did u get to ride by getting in front of the line with your guide?
The tour is about 7-8 hours long. We got to ride all of the major attractions and a few smaller ones.
@@thequeeng2282 Much appreciated.
if my ticket is for 10:45am, can I go early to the VIP lounge or get the early access to the mairo world?
You can only access Super Mario World with your VIP group….unless, you schedule a reservation with Super Mario World ahead of time. Please note, I am giving you this information at a time when reservations are needed to enter Super Mario World. 👌🏾
How many times can u get without reservation into SNW with the VIP?
SMW is based upon capacity. Which varies. I do not know how many times you can go back forth. I would suggest making a reservation ahead of time if you plan on revisiting without the tour guide. Typically, you will go to SMW at the end of the tour.
How long is the ride on the trolley and back stage stuff? If its too long ny 6yr old will probably be whining to leave lol
I don’t have kids. So, I can’t speak on kids. But the trolly is 1-2 hours if you think your kid can tolerate it 👌🏾 You do get on and off the trolley too tho
So can I ask how much for 4 visitors Vip tour ? Must be very expensive!
It was about $450/ person. Not incredibly expensive. 👌🏾
If you're pregnant and on the tour, do you have to get on the rides or can you opt to wait until the tour continues?
Regardless if you are pregnant or not, you do not have to go on any ride you do not want to . You can totally hang out with the tour guide and wait for the rest of the group. You can opt out anytime 😎🥰
much better
Do you think it's worth buying the early entry too if you go VIP?
Not really. You will do plenty rides on the tour. But, if you just want to go early and see stuff before the tour, why not! 💜
How much time did you get on your own to explore after the tour?
We had a few hours after the tour to do whatever. But then again, we chose the 11am tour times….if we wanted more time after, we would have chose the morning tours 👌🏾
@@thequeeng2282 awesome! Thanks so much! I’ve booked the 9:45 one, coming solo all the way from Aus I can’t bloody wait!
What about video cameras, does vip not mind that I film at least super nintendo world?
They do not mind video taping. 😁🙂
@@thequeeng2282Good. :) Because I need my fans to know I was there at Super Nintendo World.
How long is the tour?
6-8 hrs. I explained why in the comments. 🙃
you know, if is there spanish vip tour?
I believe if you call in to make your reservation, you can request a Spanish speaking tour. 👌🏾
wait so you don't get front in line on the Harry Potter ride?
You go to the front of the line on ALL rides. 👌🏾
How much do they cost
Last I checked around $450/ per person
Ok thx
Private tours are 400$ an hour.
How much was parking ? Was it included?
Parking is included with your VIP pass. No extra charge 👌🏾
@THEQueenG22 last question... tipping? How much did you tip everyone that made your visit good?
@THEQueenG22 oh and thank you so much for the reply and video.
@@veevee9779 we thought our VIP guide was super awesome, so I believe we tipped about 20% of what we paid for the tickets. 😎 It’s up to your discretion and your experience of course 💜
Was that tall asian guy Jeremy Lin?
So VIP won’t matter to me. I’m bringing my kids only for Super Nintendo World only.
I thought I saw a previous comment from you , but I can’t find it about how many days. Just incase I missed it, you will knock out Super Nintendo World in one day. Without VIP, waiting for Bowsers Challenge Mario Kart and the key games will take up majority of your time in that particular park. 👌🏾
Good video! Have you been to the orlando location?
Yes. I have been to the Orlando location. But I have not done VIP there yet. 😉
Idk if anyone told the women who posted this video that putting in the background the Nintendo sound ruined the video
Nope. Just you. 😎
