Universal Orlando Holiday Tour with VIP Guide FULL EXPERIENCE! Grinchmas, Special Experiences & More
We do the Universal Orlando Holiday Tour given by VIP Tour Guides on Thanksgiving week 2021 and I'm bringing you along to show you what this special tour is like! This is Universal's second year of offering these special tours and we took the tour on its second night. The tour includes reserved parade viewing for Universal's Holiday Parade featuring Macy's, reserved seating for the Grinchmas show at Islands of Adventure, extra time in the Grinchmas theatre with a special, hilarious Q & A with the Whos, a VIP tour guide walking you around, answering questions and sharing fun info about the parks, including walking around backstage, the VIP upstairs area of Jimmy Fallon, a special meeting and photo opportunity with Santa Claus, cookies and hot chocolate with the Grinch, and a special viewing of Magic of Christmas at Hogwarts Castle after the park is closed to day guests! We also got a cool view of Cinematic Celebration by the Christmas Tree and everyone was dressed fun and festive! Thank you so much to Universal Orlando Resort for inviting me to experience this tour and share it with all of you, it's something I've always wanted to do and it was such a surprise and honor to be invited! Thank you to all of YOU for watching, I hope this answered some questions for you, showed you something new & cool and brought you some fun Universal vibes!

Had the great pleasure of seeing the Universal Macy's Christmas Parade, was surprised it was so much more then Disney's new watered down offerings. This looks more substantial and at a fraction of the cost of Disney's Christmas After hours affair which now exceeds $200 for only 4 hours. Making plans!

Whoo-ley cow! Very colorful & fun show. And Hogwarts castle so pretty w the light show. Would love to be there. Happy Thanksgiving to you & Sam🌲🦃🌲
That has to be so much fun to play the grinch. You basically have license to be extra crazy and whimsical.
I LOVED this!!! 1st, because it's NOT Disney. And most of all because the Live Grinchmas Show was fabulous! My grand kids would flip! They love Grinch. I told their mom to show them your channel. This was a great evening. So fun. And wonderfully refreshing & different, a break from WDW. I love watching your channel. It's lovely.
Thank you very much I enjoyed the filming that you did and I hope you have a good Thanksgiving
Congratulations 🎊🎉🎈🍾 on hitting 85k subscribers.
i love the holiday universal studios and islands adventure. i am ejoy your holidays tour.beautiful christmas
I think seeing what you saw after hours was worth it !!! How fun! Thanks for taking us along ! Happy thanksgiving!!
What a awesome invite from universal so happy you and Sam got to experience it. I’d be happy sat eating cookies and drinking hot chocolate with the grinch all night he’s hilarious, I so wanted him to come sit at your table 🙃 The park looked very peaceful once it was closed to non tour guests! Thanks for sharing with us Jackie! Happy Thanksgiving (for the 25th!) 😄
This looked so much fun and a great insight into what’s included in this package. I loved the epic music of the Hogwarts show!
Grinch IS workin' hard just the same
Wow Jackie, this was so fun and cool to watch! Grinchmas is here! The Grinch is always funny. What a great tour.
I love the private tours. Thank you for the highlights. Thank you also for telling us the price at the beginning. This helps us to budget our visit

Thank you for the tip on tipping your your guide. I don’t think I would have thought of that. Can’t wait we are going on the Holiday Tour the week before Christmas. I am also glad your said it lasted later than the planned 10 pm. I will cancel our 10:30 dinner reservations.
When I visit Universal Studios, I want to Hug Gloria The Hippo, because She’s My Favorite Madagascar Character!😍😋❤️📺🎶
Thank you so much. I so nice to know what you actually get with those. That looks as if it would be worth it. Thanks Jackie.
Jackie, You habe out did yourself again! This is awesome video. Thank you for showing just a bit of the show. The park is so beautiful at night with no one there. You looked so excited going to see Santa. Have a great Thanksgiving.

I wasn’t sure how I felt about this experience in the beginning (I go to the parks just with my husband) but having elements of Hogsmeade open (plus the hot cocoa and cookies at Seuss Landing) would make sitting through The Whoville Q&A and Santa absolutely worth it!

Amazing! Thank you Jackie and Sam ! It was great to see Universal Studios with Tour Guide. Seeing the park with low crowds and see The Grinch and all the festivities along the city streets and meeting Santa was Epic. It was so nice to see Hogwarts for the Holidays at night made it so special for me Thank you for always making these videos with love and care. Your the Greatest!😀👍

Have a great Thanksgiving to you and Sam Enjoy
great videos, can't wait to finally get back down there in February.
another great video Jackie and i love there Christmas Tree and i love the Grinch and his little dog was walking around on the stage a lot to didnt he Jackie and Sam looks like he was having Fun to and thats great
Now I know that the Grinch likes WHO HASH. The holiday VIP tour seemed like a joyous event. ❤️🌲💚🎆 Appreciated that you showed the marching band. 👍 I would love to visit Universal Orlando in person someday. Thanks Jackie and Sam for bringing us along for special festive fun. 😊 Happy early Thanksgiving! 🦃
Good vlog and thank you and keep up the good work you do love jari
That's a great time!!!!! The Xmas mood is the best mood. Thanks for the video, Jackie. Greetings. :8)
I love your energy!😊👌🏾
Imagine my surprise when I'm sitting in Greenwood, Indiana and listening to they announce the band from the high school my son will go to when he gets to that age. .... small world (but that's at a different theme park)
It's a snow-y man owl!

Very lovely 😀. An awesome evening @ Universal Parks to share & spend some time - TY ⚠️Super Enthused ⚠️ We will be in FL in Feb for a cruise - looks like Universal is tipping the scale to go visit whilst(4 Sam) out there 👍😀.
The Holiday tour looks great, I would love to go on one. The only thing that would make it better is if you got to actually talk to the Grinch!!
Hi I was wondering if you can answer my question! I am still a bit confused about which tickets to purchase. Do we have to purchase the Holiday Tour to see the grinchmas and grinch festivities? Or Can I just purchase 2-Park-1-Day Park-to-Park Ticket and will I still get to see the parade , live theatre, and all the Christmas festivities? If you can help me Id appreciate it so much!
@SuperEnthused
2 жыл бұрын
You can use a regular park ticket to see the parade and do many of the holiday festivities. The only things that you can’t do with a ticket and they only come with the tour are meeting Santa, the extra Q and a with The Who’s, the hot chocolate and cookies with the Grinch, reserved space for watching the parade and Grinchmas, and the after hours time in Hogsmeade to watch the Christmas castle show. You can watch the castle show with a regular day ticket it’s just that extra after hours time that comes with the tour. Hope this helped!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and Sam - if I don't see you.

Do you have any idea when the Holiday VIP tickets go on sale for 2023?
You can get to VIP area at Jimmy Fallon's by doing a "Studio tour" (ride tour) you will put a pin into a map if you do and ride the ride too, most of the rides do ride tour like the Mummy- "The Production Tour" BTW. Also, I am thinking doing a RIP tour next year!
