    We have purchased vip pass and it was totally worth it. It was crowded as it was holiday seadon. The waiting time for most of the thrilled rides were 2hours. This was our first USJ visit. We managed to complete most of it thanks to the vip and the express passes that were given. We had a great time. Thank you.

    We avoided the main gate, especially since it was extremely crowded today. The management and the tour were excellent.

    I cannot recommend the USJ VIP Tour highly enough—it completely transformed our day at Universal Studios Japan into something truly magical. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like VIPs. Our tour guide (Jo) was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and organized, which made the experience feel seamless and stress-free. The biggest advantage? Skipping the lines. We had express access to many of the park’s most popular attractions, including The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Super Nintendo World, and The Flying Dinosaur. This meant we got to enjoy way more rides than we ever could have on a regular ticket, especially during peak hours. Our guide also shared lots of insider tips, fun facts about the attractions, and managed all the timing and itinerary so we could just relax and enjoy. If you’re visiting USJ and want a smooth, premium experience—especially if you’re short on time or traveling with family—this tour is absolutely worth the investment. It turned a fun day into a once-in-a-lifetime memory.
