I booked the VIP experience at Universal Studios for Veterans Day. I had a great day from start to finish. Getting through security at the entrance was a bit of a hassle as there were a lot of people but after that it was straight to the VIP room. Check in was easy and after meeting with Donna (the guide) and the rest of the group we were off and out. We did all the rides in the morning and then had a great lunch and in the afternoon we did the studio tour. What I enjoyed most on the lots etc was the Props dept! So much stuff but so organised in the chaos!! We got to see it all and with no hanging around. A complete day and with so much to see the VIP exp. I felt it was the best way to go. I had doubted whether to do the Front of Line pass or the VIP. If you haven't been before do the VIP and you'll save time and get to see it all. Only down side was Desperate Houswives was filming and Ghost Whisperer set was being dressed so we couldn't go on those sets. The Simpsons ride is amazing! and the House of Horrors is really quite scary. A great day out, thanks to all

Overall the VIP experience was very good, but we did miss out on the water world show, which I was disappointed with. Lunch was very nice and Tony our tour guide was very helpful also. I took both my daughters on the tour aged 9 - 10, but this isnt really designed for them.

Overall, I think the VIP Experience at Universal Studios was worth the $200, considering regular admission at $67 and/or upgrade to "front of line" for $129. The VIP Experience adds the valet parking, continental breakfast, lunch and the guided, extended tour for an extra $70, probably about what you'd spend for these things if you bought them separately, but I think the extended tour is the value here - you can only get that with the VIP Experience. Cal Active was a bit cheaper than booking thru Universal, and the service was quite good.

Buying tickets through Calactive was easy and efficient and saved me time by not having to line up at the ticket line.

With the help of CalActive we were able to get into the VIP experience at Universal with only a few hours notice and pay less than we would have at their ticket office. The experience was very nice and probably the best way to really experience Universal Studios. In fact, we were able to see a couple of celebs including Conan O' Brian out driving his desk around.
