Is The Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood Worth It?

What You See On The Tour

The tour begins with the Storytelling Showcase, then moves through working backlots including Midwest Street, New York Street, French Street, and Jungle. Visitors see the Friends Fountain and enter Stage 48: Script to Screen, an interactive soundstage with the original Central Perk set from Friends and sets from The Big Bang Theory.

The grand finale, Action and Magic Made Here, features DC Super Heroes and Villains, including the Batcave, Batmobiles, and Gotham City sets, plus recreated Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts sets and props. Productions represented across the tour include Friends, The Big Bang Theory, Batman, Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts, Gilmore Girls, Casablanca, ER, and Superman.

Who Should Book It

Fans of Friends, The Big Bang Theory, Batman, Harry Potter, and Fantastic Beasts will find the most value here. The tour includes original sets, props, and costumes from these productions. Visitors who enjoy seeing how film and TV shows are made also get a look at active soundstages and backlots.

The experience lasts about 3 hours total, with 1 hour guided and 2 hours self-guided. Because the studio is a working production facility, no two tours are identical. Backlot availability changes daily due to active filming, so repeat visitors may see different areas on different days.
