Universal Studios, one of top Hollywood movie production companies, began offering tours in 1964 by opening their popular movie sets and showing movie science effects to public. Today, Universal Studios still offers tours, and they still make movies – merely it has also become one of the largest amusement parks in the world. In fact, Universal Studios has mixed movie making with shows and a theme park full of rides to become one of the most popular tourist attractions in the world.

The Studio tour is a one hour guided tour. Those on the tour ride around the studio’s 420 acres on a tram, and see many stars dressing rooms, production offices, and often famous Hollywood stars. Where else can you see a western town and a New York City street all in the same hour? The tour includes sets from Back to the Future, Curse of the Mummy’s Tomb, Jurassic Park III, and The Grinch. This is more than just your boring tour with a boring monotone tour guide! As the tour goes on, tourists encounter many surprises!

Once you’ve finished your tour of the studios, you can move on to the theme park. All of the rides have a movie oriented theme, such as Revenge of the Mummy, Back to the Future, Jurassic Park, King Kong, Terminator 2, Shrek, and the newest one The Simpsons Ride. There is also entertainment. Waterworld is a theater presentation which features many stunts and special effects. Other shows that include terrific stage effects are Backdraft, Animal Planet Live, and Spider Man Rocks.

If you still have time left and can still move your legs, you can also visit the TV Audience Ticket Booth. Here you will get free tickets that will let you to be part of the audience for television shows that are being taped during your visit. This is almost like being on TV!
