I had no idea they existed! Do you have other info? I think the IoA one would be awesome, but I'd have to know pricing and what kinds of "backstage" stuff you get silly

Here's the information:

The VIP Tour allows you and/or your party to be personally
escorted
on a guided walking tour around one or both of the two
(2) theme parks. In addition to the tour guide, you will receive priority
entry into the rides and attractions
, so you wonât have to
wait in the regular lines.

Some premier features of the VIP Tour include:

[ul][li]Complimentary valet parking[/li][li]Complimentary refreshments (coffee, bottled water) upon check-in[/li][li]VIP Tour credential and lanyard[/li][li]Opportunity for private character meet and greets[/li][li]Complimentary VIP gift[/li][li]Exclusive information and select backstage access (when available)[/li][li]Select discounts on Food and Merchandise[/li][li]Universal Express access to attractions at conclusion of tour[/li][/ul]Starts at 150.00 per person and up

Hmm...I think I'd enjoy this more at Disney. The characters are more appealing there, and on my trips to Universal the lines haven't been excessive so as to need the line-hopping privileges. You guys are going in the Fall, so I'm not sure you need to worry about that either.

Also, for $150, I think I'd want them to feed me. ;-D

Thanks for the info Serinity!

I agree with Bali, that sounds great...if it was at Disney. I don't even know which characters there are to get your picture with at Universal Studios. laugh

Honestly I like the idea of priority access, but I wonder how much of the day the tour eats up? Don't use up the prime time early in the day when I could be getting all my rides in.

I think this would be ideal if you really like the Universal rides and have the extra money. I'm not interested in the character meet and greet really, but it would be good if you could just tell your tour guide "let's ride all the big deal stuff in the next two hours!"

Can you show me dueling dragons one more time?
