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.
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.
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 🥰
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
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 😂
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.
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.
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!
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.
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. 🥰😁
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.
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!
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.
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
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
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.
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!
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.❤
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.
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!
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!
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.
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.
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
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
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~
Thank you for this video! It inspired me to book with my parents and we just returned. Absolutely an amazing time and now looking to book for Universal Orlando. Now searching to see if y’all have a video trying that one haha.
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. :)
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?
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!!!
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".
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 😂
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.
Thank you 🥰
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.

Chris's Dad Jokes are fabulous! The joy on your faces in courthouse square were wonderful!

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!

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

Really surprised at the reasonable pricing of the Universal VIP tour! Seems like a great value.

OMG seeing my two favorites Provost and Ordinary together I think I went to heaven!!
Loved hanging out with Chris and we got to hang out with Amanda and Miles at dinner after too!
I bet being with Chris Provost is super fun. I love when he's in your videos.
He’s so funny
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!

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
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

Haha I always loved the Waterworld movie and I'm glad they're still doing the show
It’s the best show
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!
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.❤
😊🙌🙌
FOR DRIZZLE....made my day
😆
Love you guys!! 💚💙💚💙
Love you too! Such a fun day
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.
Wow this is amazing! I would LOOVE to see these sets one dayy😍😭😭
👍
Thank you for bringing us along!!! Seriously, been debating taking this tour!!
If you have the money to afford it it’s well worth it
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!

Thanks for watching ☺️
I'm doing the VIP Tour next month for my birthday and I'm so excited!!!
Have a blast!
This is so great. I cannot wait to book for next weekend! Loved seeing Chris there too.
Always fun hanging out with Chris
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 to know thanks for always keeping us up to date with all travel ❤ love it !
Thanks for watching
Best birthday gift to get an upload from you lovely people
Happy birthday
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾🥰🥂✨❤️❤️
Thanks Devon
I still can’t believe Mario World exists! 🤯
It’s the best
Im so excited for you both- especially Peter for BTTF!
🙌
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!!!
I'm so happy that Peter is so happy to be in Back to the Future!
😁 was a dream come true
Hi Peter and Kitra.I really enjoyed your V I P Tour.Kitra iam glad you got to do it this time.Chris is a good tour guide.From Universal Jamie.
Thanks Jamie!!
OMG Back to the future I can't believe I just started crying, why am I crying....
I almost cried 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!

Thanks 🙏
Thank you for editing in clips of the subject matter. It really makes a difference 👍

Man, I haven't had a chance to watch your guys video's in a long time.
Welcome back
Ursula looked like Magic Journeys' Janelle. It would be interesting if she was with the tour. 😁
Funny enough Janelle was on the tour last time Peter went on it and they had Ursula as a vip guide so you can see proof they aren’t the same person 😆
This some day ill go on ... nice video showcasing the experience!!!
👍
This looked INCREDIBLE
🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much for the film clips! Great work enhancing the-fabulous tour!
Glad you enjoyed it!
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 you had an amazing time: we’ve never done the VIP tour in Orlando
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

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!!!
Have so much fun
If I ever get over to Universal I will definitely be paying the extra for this tour 😊

Awesome video, love the genuine friendships between the various youtubers. Speaks volumes on your characters ❤
