  • Universal Orlando VIP Tour
    Apr 29 2026

    In this episode, we’re diving into our full experience with the VIP Tour at Universal Orlando Resort—and answering the big question: is it really worth it?

    We walk through our entire day, from early park access and guided touring to front-of-the-line rides on major attractions like Hagrid’s and VelociCoaster. We also break down what’s actually included—from meals and valet parking to express access after your tour—and how it compares to purchasing Express Pass on your own.

    We also share:
    • The biggest perks (and a few surprises)
    • How the tour is structured (private vs. non-private)
    • What kind of traveler this experience is best for
    • And whether we’d do it again

    If you’re planning a Universal trip and trying to decide how to maximize your time, this episode gives you a real, honest look at what the VIP experience is actually like.
