Epic Universe VIP Experience

The most “luxury within reach” way to do Epic Universe!

We had another absolutely epic adventure at Universal’s brand-new park, and this time we got to experience it in the most incredible way… on a VIP Tour. Now that I’ve done it myself, I can confidently say that if you want to see and do the biggest thrills with the least stress this is the way. You know I always try the experiences I recommend so I can give you the real story, and this one far exceeded expectations!

We checked in at the private VIP office (which feels so exclusive!), grabbed snacks and bottled water for the road, and met our amazing guide who was with us the entire four hours. From there, it was straight into the action.

I’m not exaggerating when I say: we didn’t wait in a single regular line. Zero. Zip. Nada. Our guide whisked us right into the headliners – and some hidden gems! – while keeping us perfectly on pace with minimal walking. Meanwhile, I was soaking up every bit of storytelling, back-of-house details, and insider tips he shared along the way.

In our four hours we accomplished:

  • Monsters Unchained
  • Curse of the Wearwolf
  • Le Cirque Arcanus
  • Donkey Kong Country: Mine-Cart Madness
  • Mario Kart Bowser’s Challenge
  • Harry Potter and the Battle at the Ministry
  • Hiccup’s Wing Gliders
  • Dragon Racer’s Rally
  • Fyre Drill

Four hours, y’all! Incredible.

There were only twelve guests in our group, which made it feel personal and extra efficient. It was such a treat to have breathing room and not worry about navigating crowds or frantic Lightning Lane strategy like we have to do down the street.

The VIP perks don’t stop there… valet parking is included for one car, and you get reserved seating for select entertainment. We felt very taken care of all afternoon. Not to mention, Express Pass is included for the entire rest of the day after your tour!

And because I know what you’re silently thinking… This is not an entire budget buster! Price varies by date but I assure it it costs less than you’d probably imagine for such a high-touch experience.

One of the things I love reminding people:

My Universal booking services are completely complimentary.
You could plan it yourself… but why bother?

I know how to structure your day around crowds, shows, meals, and experiences so you actually get to enjoy the park, not stress about it. And VIP touring is just one of the incredible upgrades we can sprinkle in. Epic Universe is going to be the hottest ticket for years to come and I’m already booking 2026 trips!

Pro Tip: Universal pricing is dynamic and always goes up the closer you get to travel. Book now with a $50 per person refundable deposit and know you’ve locked in the best rates!
