Universal Studios Hollywood, in Los Angeles County, California, is a unique blend of an operational film studio and a theme park. Universal City Studios is one of the most historic and celebrated film studios still in use, earning it the title "The Entertainment Capital of LA." Initially opened to provide the public with tours of its sets, it now serves as the original model for the international chain of Universal Studios Theme Parks.
Universal Studios Hollywood theme park is home to the renowned Studio Tour. This premier attraction immerses guests in filmmaking, offering a close-up view of diverse sets on the Universal Studios Lot. Participants embark on a 45-70 minute journey aboard multi-car trams, led by a live Studio Guide who provides insights complemented by pre-recorded video clips. The tour explores the Front Lot, Backlot, and various themed areas, showcasing legendary movie sets and landmarks.
The Studio Tour has evolved from its humble beginnings in 1915, where visitors sat on simple bleachers for a fee of 25 cents. The introduction of pink and white Glamor Trams in 1964 marked a pivotal change, making the tram tour a central feature of the park, starting from the Front Lot Commissary. The opening of the Upper Lot (Entertainment Center) in 1965 expanded its offerings.
Technological innovations have significantly shaped the tour's evolution. From the adoption of CD players in 1989 to DVD players and LCD screens in 2000, these advancements have enhanced the visitor experience by showcasing movie scenes filmed on-site. The introduction of high-definition screens in 2009 and the fleet's upgrade to electric trams in 2022 represent the latest modernization.
