I'm a former Universal Studios Tour Guide, Former KITT "The Car", former Paramount Studios Tour Guide, and I've been a writer/producer in the industry for over 20 years. I'm 6:46 sec in, and "Chris" the tour guide has already told (at least) 4 inaccuracies.
It is NOT the largest studio in Hollywood. It's not even in Hollywood. They incorporated in 1912 but did not have a studio in LA until the 20s Griffith, Zucker and Senate were here before them. A "prop" is anything handled by "talent". If it's nailed down or not handled it's "set dressing".
You guys did a great job at editing this video with pasting in movie clips to correspond with the tour. If I didn’t know any better I’d say Universal themself did this video.
Peter I totally get the feeling you had walking on BTTF set. That's how I felt back in 1975 when I stood on the footprints in front of the Chinses Theatre for the 1st time. As a teen I was totally obsessed with Hollywood and the stars and spent hrs and hrs in my bedroom working on my scrapbooks. I had subscriptions with my babysitting money to all 3 of Rona Barretts magazines to find the pictures my fav stars for the scrapbooks. ⭐ My 1st trip to US was also in 1975. Ty for taking us on this VIP tour with you! I enjoyed every minute 🥰
WOW 😮, now that really does look like a true VIP experience! If you actually price out the cost of a park ticket, food, access tickets, and express ride experience it's totally worth it.
Kitra you are my girl! Last year when you broke your ankle I messed up my knee, had a double ankle fracture, and covid (ankle and knee happened on a RCL cruise - Freedom of the Seas )You a huge inspiration and got me through! So glad we are both back on our feet! Xoxo
That's so cool that you got to walk around the clock tower courtyard! We were at Universal last month and did get to at least drive by it during the studio tram tour. We'd been explaining to our girls what Back to the Future was when we were there, so yesterday, our 8 year old finally asked to watch it. She LOVED it! I was so thrilled since it's a long time favorite of mine too. She wants to see the other two movies now. 😃
This was soooo awesome to watch!!!!!!! Peter I’m sooooo glad you got to see the Back to the Future set! You looked soooo happy and excited!!!!!! Kitra I’m happy you got to go this time. It looks like an amazing tour! 💚💚🩵🩵💙💙🤍🤍🧡🧡 the tour guides are so knowledgeable. 👍🏻
The quality of your videos has become incredible. They have such a polished look. Just the editing of multi shots make it look like a professional documentary or promotional video! And you have all the right information. Think you may have become the number 1 theme park media channel.
This video was made for me when we got to see Peter walk in to Courthouse Square. After all of your adventures, I'm so happy to see that there are still things that give you that thrill.
My heart was so full of joy when Peter got step foot into the square and so awesome it happened. One of my favorites things to see back in the 90’s when on the Tram. An the price is amazing for what you get.
I went on May 15th and we got to see it too! (From the tram, not walking on it of course). My kids were clueless as to why I was so excited. Went home and watched Back to the Future right away!
i remember peter doing this solo actually, that was around when i first started properly following your uploads lol i love this journey for you! stuff like this makes it so nice to follow you guys
When a tour guide those dose kinds of favors it’s the best, they make the whole tour memorable. I took a classic tour at WB, stage 16 was open we passed by it, my sister said she wanted to go in. At the end of the tour we got our own private tour of the stage, it’s something I won’t forget we were so happy to go in. Those are the best tour guides. I hope to be as lucky as you guys if I ever do the VIP tour. 🥰😁
I did the normal backlot tour in 1989 and got to drive round the courthouse square dressed for Back to the Future 2 as it hadn’t long finished filming. It was a truly memorable moment that I’ll always treasure.
Loved the tour! When I was a kid, I was an extra in The Princess Diaries 2 and we had to film in “Little Europe” (it was for the scene where Anne Hathaway cuts the ribbon for the orphanage). I remember I was shocked realizing all the interiors of the buildings were fake 😂
Always enjoy your videos. I've done the VIP twice and super jelly you got to explore the BBTF court house and prop areas. Need your amazing tour guides. I appreciate how you two always give us an insight to adventure and make me feel like I am right there with you both.
What an amazing tour! The guides were great, and I'm so glad Peter got to fulfil his dream to tour Clock Tower square! That was epic! This is one experience that seems totally worth the extra cost, especially for movie fans!
I did the VIP tour back in 2003 for my 17th birthday! It was incredible. My dream was to work as a Hollywood special FX makeup artist back then and that tour made me cry, it was that awesome!
BTTF is my all time fav movie too! I’m 40 so it’s got to be a thing of our generation! The last few times I took the studio tour we didn’t get to go over there but I was able to in 2018 and got some photos. But to walk around there…. Just incredible! I had a chance in 2019 to get to wander around part of the back lot for a Porsche car show called Luftgekuhlt and we got to be in the Mexico/Wild West area and see the tours going through the flash flood part. Also got to hang out where Rick Dalton spent some time.
All your videos are good. This was awesome and I am definitely going to go on this experience. I think it’s worth the money so worth the money. Thanks again guys ordinary adventures at their finest.❤
As a huge fan of back 2 the future. Awesome and yeah it would be a lot to take in. I love that the pond was real. That was something I never once gave any thought too.
The studio tour is my favorite! It's funny how I never get tired of hearing the bts facts even tho I've heard them so many times before lol it's always fun!
My favorite detail is at 13:06. The clock reads ten-o-four! IT'S STILL STUCK ON TEN-O-FOUR! The EXACT minute it got struck by lightning in BTTF! Has it been that way since the 80's? Does the studio never change it? I'm SO curious now!
Went on a VIP tour last October and Amity Island and Waterworld were drained for cleaning! I was devastated because those were the two things I was most excited to see, but I did get a surprise when I saw and got a selfie with Peter and Kitra after the Special Effects Show
Nice! Chris was my guide two years ago for RIP HHN. he is great, he actually is the coach, teacher for the other guides. The best. I haven't done the VIP during the day yet but it would be great.
Great video as always, but a highlight for me was seeing Ursula, whom I haven't seen since I attended New York Film Academy in '07/'08. Not sure how she looks younger. heh heh
This tour guy Chris, so dang knowledgeable what a great guy. Peter and Kitra, thank you for such good informative videos, my family and I love watching them for when we plan on going to amusement parks.
That was a great video, really highlighted the VIP experience making it a must for us next time we head to Universal Hollywood - for the price you just get so much! The tour guides were both fantastic and knowledgeable about the parks - must have been a great feeling to finally get to walk around Hill Valley too!!!
We have done the VIP tour and got to get out at the Clock Tower, it was brilliant. You brought back some wonderful memories. It was fun to see it again with you guys. :)
I'm doing a SoCal vacation in October, and bought my ticket to Universal a few days ago... And then, this video came out. I upgraded to a VIP pass this afternoon, and I'm super-exited for it.
Thank you for showing us this. As a movie buff myself watching this was awesome and hopefully one day I get to experience this in real life but for now I shall live vicariously through these videos and that's great someone recognized you guys while doing the tram tour hahaa
I’m so glad you got to FINALLY go to Back to the Future square! I loved when we got to do it. I also , a long time ago, got to be Doc Brown in the special effects show trying to connect the wires but I get struck by lighting lol
GREAT VIDEO!!! We have GOT to do this Tour!!! Fun Fact: Many years ago we were on the Tram Tour and from a distance we got to see Courtyard Square where they were filming 'Back To The Future 2' including the pond! Also more years later Michael J Fox directed a 'Brooklyn Bridge' TV episode and I was there with my young son who was in it!
I finally have the time to watch this video! 😅 (I’ve been busy working overtime- raising money for my trip at the end of the year 🇯🇵- and then running errands over the weekend that I finally have a lazy day today)!!! I have never been interested in doing any vip or special experiences for stuff before…but now I really think this VIP tour would be worth it 🤩 I’m happy that Peter got to live out his dream in walking on that set and seeing Chris from provost in this video was like the cherry on top! 😊 off to watch your livestream which I totally missed due to overtime~
This was so good and seemed like there's was more than the last vip tour. Thx for sharing, going in August with 8 relatives. This really got me hyped!!!
This was such a great video!!! I couldn’t stop smiling with how happy yall were to see the sets and everything ❤ so happy for you all! I want to do this so bad!!! What day of the week did you go on a tour?
Ha! I LOVE that people were totally excited to see you there. You literally ARE celebrities to those of us that watch you regularly!!!
🥰 it was just funny because they were like wave at the tram and pretend to be celebrities and then someone noticed Peter 😂
The tour guide Chris was AMAZING ! He has so much knowledge to share!
Both our tour guides were so good! They had so many facts and details.
I'm a former Universal Studios Tour Guide, Former KITT "The Car", former Paramount Studios Tour Guide, and I've been a writer/producer in the industry for over 20 years. I'm 6:46 sec in, and "Chris" the tour guide has already told (at least) 4 inaccuracies.
What did he say that you think is inaccurate?
It is NOT the largest studio in Hollywood. It's not even in Hollywood. They incorporated in 1912 but did not have a studio in LA until the 20s Griffith, Zucker and Senate were here before them.
A "prop" is anything handled by "talent". If it's nailed down or not handled it's "set dressing".

I love some of Chris’s puns 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦🏻♀️
It was punny if you ask him 😅🙃
Honestly were great jokes though
I love that Kitra gives Chris an enthusiastic laugh!
Save the clock tower, Peter! That’s the power of love!
Great Scott!

He’s so funny
I struggle sometimes and you guys make my day every time you post. Thank you.
❤️
I'm glad you got to live your dream, Peter! I loved the Waterworld guy giving you a shout-out!!!
🙌 the shout out from Chey was awesome!

Me too
Ursula is working at universal 😂 she is getting revenge on disney 😂
That funny😅
😝
@@OrdinaryAdventures well Disney is going to war with universal to see who the best park in California and at Orlando
The studio tour is my favorite! It's funny how I never get tired of hearing the bts facts even tho I've heard them so many times before lol it's always fun!
It’s the best
17:53
Wow!!!
They have The Good Place set at Universal Hollywood. SOOOO COOOL!!!
I think a lot of the show was filmed there
Glad Kitra got to come this time! Also, Chris was on a roll with his jokes. The Mario one got me! 😂
😆
Haha I always loved the Waterworld movie and I'm glad they're still doing the show
It’s the best show
I'm doing the VIP Tour next month for my birthday and I'm so excited!!!
Have a blast!
I have a picture sitting on the court house steps taken during Halloween Horror Night in like 2008ish. It was so great.
Halloween horror nights let you walk there?!
@@OrdinaryAdventures yes, for the VIP tour that's now the RIP tour. They had small experiences setup for the VIP experience on the backlot.
WOOO! Watching this on my way to Knotts! 😊💜💜💜🙌😍
Have fun! We almost went today!
What a great tour! We also get Chris with the puns! Chefs kiss!
😆
This is so great to know thanks for always keeping us up to date with all travel ❤ love it !
Thanks for watching
This was so awesome! So happy for you both to be able to see Town Hall. Peter your dream came true. Love it!
Yes it was!
My favorite detail is at 13:06.
The clock reads ten-o-four!
IT'S STILL STUCK ON TEN-O-FOUR!
The EXACT minute it got struck by lightning in BTTF! Has it been that way since the 80's? Does the studio never change it? I'm SO curious now!
Such a great detail! I don’t know how I didn’t notice that!!!
Went on a VIP tour last October and Amity Island and Waterworld were drained for cleaning! I was devastated because those were the two things I was most excited to see, but I did get a surprise when I saw and got a selfie with Peter and Kitra after the Special Effects Show
Aw dang it!!!
Omg! This was sooo fun to watch! Definitely want to try this now! A must experience for any movie lover❤️🙌❤️
Thanks so much Bianca
Wow this is amazing! I would LOOVE to see these sets one dayy😍😭😭
👍
Wow…what an awesome tour! So many cool fun facts! Peter, so happy that your Courthouse Sqaure dream finally came true!! Fantastic!! 😎
🙌 thanks
Thank you so much for the film clips! Great work enhancing the-fabulous tour!
Glad you enjoyed it!
We just had the tour Friday. Fantastic guides and it’s awesome feeling special getting to the front of all the lines. Also the vip lunch was great
Agreed!
Back to the Future is my favorite film, too! What a nice tour!
🙌
Nice! Chris was my guide two years ago for RIP HHN. he is great, he actually is the coach, teacher for the other guides. The best. I haven't done the VIP during the day yet but it would be great.
He’s so good
Im so excited for you both- especially Peter for BTTF!

Best birthday gift to get an upload from you lovely people
Happy birthday
Great video as always, but a highlight for me was seeing Ursula, whom I haven't seen since I attended New York Film Academy in '07/'08. Not sure how she looks younger. heh heh
That’s awesome!
This is the only way to do Universal IMHO especially if you're only gonna be there for 1 day on vacation or something, very cool
Yeah if it’s a one day vacation I recommend this or express
I'm so happy that Peter is so happy to be in Back to the Future!
😁 was a dream come true
Chris the tour guide is on ANOTHER LEVEL! Give this guy his own TV show, seriously! (Kind of reminds me of the voice actor Billy West from Futurama?)
He’s the best
This is so great. I cannot wait to book for next weekend! Loved seeing Chris there too.
Always fun hanging out with Chris
Soooo Much Fun…Thank You for sharing your day❣️❣️❣️
Thanks for watching ☺️
It was like being on holiday with you, thank you i really enjoyed it and it was lovely to see you all so excited.
Our pleasure!
Man, I haven't had a chance to watch your guys video's in a long time.
Welcome back
It must be so exciting for them to be regonized by random ppl while on tour. I know they have a nice sized channel but still.
It was so cool! Haha
We are doing the VIP tour in July. So excited! We decided to book it based on your last VIP tour video.
Hope you have the best time
This tour guy Chris, so dang knowledgeable what a great guy. Peter and Kitra, thank you for such good informative videos, my family and I love watching them for when we plan on going to amusement parks.

Fun Fact: Many years ago we were on the Tram Tour and from a distance we got to see Courtyard Square where they were filming 'Back To The Future 2' including the pond! Also more years later Michael J Fox directed a 'Brooklyn Bridge' TV episode and I was there with my young son who was in it!
Wow!
OMG Back to the future I can't believe I just started crying, why am I crying....
