More specifically, it is a few miles north of the famous Hollywood neighborhood and about 15 minutes away from Los Angeles Downtown traffic permitting. There are 2 exits that you can take to get to the park:. To have a more precise estimate of the travel time, here are the d istances from the main places of interest in the surroundings I tried to factor in traffic as well, but obviously, it varies depending on the travel time :.
There are 3 parking lots at Universal Studios in Los Angeles and they generally open before the park does so you can get to the entrance when the park opens. If you continue driving and follow the signs, you will arrive at a tollbooth where you will have to prepay for parking. The standard ticket is for General Parking , the parking area furthest from the main entrance, divided into 2 distinct areas: E. This is also divided into 2 separate areas Jurassic Park and Woody Woodpecker and it takes about minutes to walk to the park.
There are also private garages or public paid parking lots that are not managed by Universal Studios that are often a bit more uncomfortable, but they are also more affordable.
Here below, I will name 3 of them that seem to be the most strategic even if I have never parked there personally, I have always used the general parking at the park. PS : For each parking lot, I also included the price and the distance to reach Universal Studios on foot, but I suggest you check at the respective links to check for the updated prices and hours of operation.
If you are traveling in an RV, Universal Studios has a special outdoor area that is accessible at the same rates as the standard parking lot.
A surcharge is applied in the case of vehicles with trailers or commercial vehicles. Parking at night is not permitted. This stop is located on the red line and is connected to the park by a free shuttle bus that runs 7 days a week from a.
The shuttle runs every minutes and the journey is about 5 minutes. For more information, you can have a look at this link. Times vary according to the season and also according to the days of the week, however, when you purchase tickets online, you will only see the entrance time for the day you are interested in.
You should also keep in mind that this is one of the most popular attractions in all of Los Angeles. Therefore, it is likely to get crowded, especially in the summer months until the first half of August and during weekends and special holidays. If you find yourself visiting the park on a day that is particularly full of tourists, the ticket to skip the lines for rides becomes an important upgrade.
It is not always easy to accurately predict the flow of tourists, however, thanks to historical data, you can see the trends and figure out more or less what are the favorable moments for visiting the park.
For those whose vacation plans allow for some flexibility, here are those that statistically are considered the best times to visit Universal Studios in Hollywood :.

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter , which, as in the case of Universal Orlando , is the most sensational new addition to the theme park.

But in addition to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, there is much more.

Does the ticket for Universal Studios in Hollywood also include the themed area dedicated to the famous wizard of Hogwarts?
How long does it take to visit it? What rides, attractions, and reconstructions are there? All you need to do is pay the entrance fee for the park, which includes all the attractions and rides.
