The universal studios was our first time experience and with was so worth it. We had the best time here amongst all other experiences in Japan. The rides were amazing and one of a kind experience! The staff was super friendly. Also the headout team made sure our experience was smooth. Thankyou so much for making this so memorable for us. We appreciate it.

It was a great day full of new experiences and fun! We had a ticket with cancellation - that we didn't find in any other sites, and it opened one day before and had no problem getting in the park and enjoying all the express rides. I really recommend 🙏

We had a great day at universal studios as a large group of 8! We purchased an express and found this to be great value and big time saver! The ride we did were super! The best show was Water World and the way the performers engaged with the crowd! Our son and his girlfriend are performers and the cast we more than happy to pose for group photo at the end!

Buying the Express Pass on the website was super easy, and the app is very good too! During my one-day visit to Universal Studios Japan during Silver Week: the Express Pass was absolutely essential! I was able to do the attractions included in the pass without any hassle, saving hours of waiting in line!

We arrived at 10:00 AM and were able to get on each attraction, making the most of our time. We were tired from touring Japan, and this helped us avoid long lines. Great decision.
