Loved it so much.The ticket costs $60 to have the tour.It was great to be able to go into the sets and look all around.Our tour guide was kind and amazing. She showed us everything and described some of the buildings and what happened there. Movies, tv shows, directors, contracts etc.Very nice.About 2h the tour.

Experience of a lifetime if you are a movie buff. Got to see the T-100 from the Terminator series, Bumblebee from Transformers, very bench Tom Hanks sat on in Forrest Gump and a lot more. The guided tour offers tonnes of information and trivia about how some of the best movies ever were shot inside Paramount and you’ll be surprised to learn how some of the scenes were shot. There’s lot of studios inside where a lot of shoots take place daily and if lucky you might jump bump into some actor you like! Must visit if tripping along the west coast of the USA.

We took the VIP tour which was 4.5 hours long, included a fantastic lunch, behind the scenes looks, a walk through Props, the Sign Shop, a walk onto a working set, and interactions with people from different departments. Our tour guide, Scott from Rockford, was quite engaging and knowledgeable. Id gladly take another tour with him. The VIP tour was most definitely worth the extra ducats!

Well done Paramount Pictures Studio.Kate Gary Hudson are you coming to see myself? And marry me?From James Neil Tremain ( Facebook)Neil Tremain under GOOGLE MAPSCurrently in Perth Western Australia

Great LA experience. Stopped by here for a tour just on a whim. Walked right in and joined a group with only 2 other people. Since it was Super Bowl Sunday, it was a quiet day on the lot so we got to see a lot! Christian, our tour guide, was great. He has a passion for Paramount, and the industry. HIGHLY recommend!

We enjoyed our tour with Erin. The cart can only fit seven people. Two of them have to sit facing backwards. If youre a large group consider this when buying your ticket.

GREAT TOUR! HIGHLY RECOMMENDEDFirst of all the tour guy (Adam) was amazing! Super friendly, helpful, entertaining, bubbly and funny. I really enjoyed the tour mostly because of him. He first got an idea of what everyone in the group could have enjoyed more and then managed to satisfy everyone. The studios has a great history and its really interesting.

We had a pretty good time here. Our tour guide was great and very knowledgeable. Still so mind boggling how these sets and sound stages are transformed to make the movies and shows we see on TV. It wasn’t very packed today, groups of 7 people at different time slots.

Our tour guide was fantastic. Do the tour and try to do others. It is worth the price. We went when nothing was filming so had more access to sound stages. Photos are not allowed in sound stages, but you get to see a lot.

Dont stop on Melrose for a picture. Google images is better anyways.

This was a great tour of one of Americas iconic companies. So much history and culture here. Serena was a great guide and showed us so many hidden gems here. From the roots of RKO to how Charles Bronson got his stage name, to the Lucille Ball yard look-alike, to the mafias involvement in the Godfather series. It was just a great way to spend 2 hours.Id this review was useful, please like.

A great place to spend the afternoon! Tour groups were small enough to get a great feel for Paramount Pictures! 10/10 would recommend both for area residents and tourists alike.

Paramount Studios is the only remaining major studio left in Hollywood these days. Its also the longest-operating studio in general, still busy and fun to visit. They offer simple guided tours that accommodate eight visitors and one tour guide in an electric cart

This is a Los Angeles must for all ages! I cant believe it took me so long to actually check it out. Bring your own cardboard, but youll most likely find some remnants at either the top or foot of the slide that you can use.

The tour was great and staff were super friendly. Our tour guide was very cool and energetic. No fault on their side. But this tour is not for everyone. It requires the right audience. For the price you pay, you need to know what you are stepping into to not waste your time or money. I’m not giving a five star rating because the tour gets kind of boring within an hour. The buildings look dull and lifeless. Take this tour if and only if you know every movie that exists. Unlike universal, not many movies were filmed here. There are some blockbusters that are filmed here for sure. But not so sure everybody knows them or if teens or kids would enjoy this tour as it doesn’t have any activities to get them involved. If only this place had some virtual interaction or some fun things to indulge the crowd in, I would’ve rated 5 stars.

Comprehensive tour of a live lot. The tour brings you around various sound-stages and shows you numerous sites with Paramount history. Our tour guide was very good, she was able to answer almost all of our questions.

My tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Unfortunately the tour itself was pretty boring. We only went into one sound stage and many spots were off limits due to the sets being in use. Most of the tour consisted of driving past office buildings and sound stages which was cool but I expected more. It would’ve been cool to have actors perform a scene in a real set or stunt actors do a few stunts. Perhaps even visit the costume department and have someone from the tour dressed up like a character from a movie. My tour was late in the afternoon and the place felt like it was closed which was similar to the eerie feeling of visiting a mall right before it closes and everything is shut down. If you’re in the area, I would recommend visiting the studio and taking pictures from the outside. You’ll still be able to see some sound stages and the iconic Paramount Studios sign. The tour is just not worth it in my opinion. Boring and overpriced.

This place has so much history. I recognized several movie locations right on the grounds. Our guide was one of the best, very informative, friendly, interested in us having a great time and answering all our questions. The tour is so worth it. Go early so you can enjoy the lobby experience.

Lol... Its funny how when youre so into watching a TV show or a movie, everything seems so real to us! Yet when you take this tour its awesome to see what it takes to make a show our own with just plenty of plastic walls and props, with that imagination there is no limits... Our tour guide Bryce did a great job keeping us intrigued with what a studio can do to bring something into life. The small prop room was pretty cool. You guys should use one of those huge empty studios and use it for your props from ALL your movies and shows. Turning it into a museum, an addition to your tour, that would be awesome! Thanks Paramount for a cool tour! Dont forget to bring chocolates for your stewardess..(lol, tour inside info)

What an awesome behind the scenes look at Paramount Pictures! We learned so much on our tour all thanks to our awesome guide Max! Max was super knowledgeable and we loved hanging out with him for the two hour tour. Learning about the behind the scenes and how movies and shows film certain things was cool. I feel like I’ll look at what I watch in a different way now! My favorite part of the experience was going on the actual sets! It was fun to go around “New York” and the “Grace and Frankie” set was beautiful and fun to see in person! The last stop on our tour was the prop area where we got to see things like the Turbolift from Startreck and the Cadillac from Dreamgirls. Really cool to see that stuff in person. Highly recommend Paramount Pictures studio tour!

I believe this is by far the best tour of all the Studio Tour’s! The films and the television shows filmed here are ENORMOUS! So much history… So much detail and the Tour Guides are helpful, informative and friendly! No question seemed beyond their grasp.

Beautiful studio. Iconic sets and a nice tour guide. Great gift shop too!

This was a great tour of a real working studio (not a theme park) given by tour guides out of film school who aspire to become pages, then production assistants, and then further up the food chain. There is plenty of free street parking nearby or you can park for $15 at a lot. Our guide was Alexa and she was very knowledgeable, friendly, and humorous. She made sure to answer all questions and gave a great history of the lot. I recommend reservations (tours are every fifteen minutes and last 2 hours). There is a $5 off coupon at most hotels (you can also google the code online).

A very well planned and informative tour. It was so much fun to get to visit the sets and see behind the scenes. It killed me not to be able to take pictures of Grace and Frankies set, but it was still so fun to see it! Highlight of my day.

A must do activity when you’re in LA. If you love golf carts, you’ll be happy since most of the tour is being driven around, always fun!It was a fun tour, and very informative. Would have liked to see some live sets and celebrities, but it was still a fun visit!Love how you get to keep your name pass at the end as a souvenir.

Its a great tour and the staff are so friendly. They explain everything and we visited lots where they were actually filming!

Very interesting tour. Guided tour gets you on the back lot and talks about different movie scenes and filming locations. I highly recommend this tour if your a movie fanatic!

I lived in Los Angeles for 20 years and did very few of the touristy things. I recently visited and took the studio tour. It was fantastic. Paramount is a smaller studio, and the only one that is still in Los Angeles proper. The tour guide was fun, the seating on the cart was comfortable and seeing the sound stages, costumes, etc. was worth the price of entry. I highly recommend!

What an enjoyable time. Led by a fantastic tour guide, Maria, we were able to walk behind the scenes of Paramount Studios in Hpllywood. Her knowledge and personality shined as he catered to the interests of the group. The history of the studio, the actors, those behind the scenes that make it all come to life were presented in a log. The skills of what happens on the lot goes far beyond the actors/actresses, producers, directors and writers. All of the special people whose name appears at the end of the movie when a lot of folks get up to leave...special effects, the woodworking, costumes, lighting. All of it was truly amazing to see how a movie or TV show goes from an idea to the screen. We were also allowed to ask question to those who work at Paramount for even more insight to how things work and how they do what they do. You will enjoy the tour, the professionalism and hospitality shared by the staff from the moment you arrive. While a bit slanted, Christian was a fantastic host and tour guide. Thant you Paramount!!!

Had a great tour with Jackson (our tour guide)Very interesting tour and we had a great time. Smaller group was very personal and felt free to take our time. Souvenir badges have a place of honor in our home.There are no simulated natural disasters on this tour but it was still a ton of fun.

Wonderful facilites and we got to see Sir Elton John. Was a little taken back when an intern told me they did not have a seating section for the disabled. I was shocked that Paramount would commit such a huge oversight, especially an ADA sort. When we were allowed in theater...they were full but were wonderful to let us stand, we wouldve be crushed to get so far and not have been let in. A woman snapped at me because I was near her and it was the section for disabled people. I then went and spoke to very nice gentleman that apologized for the intern and let me know that they do in fact have a section for the disabled. He quickly accommodated my guest. A great experience, beautiful theater and once in a lifetime experience! Thank you Paramount!

Its a wonderful tour. You go al over the place, see the old and new sets and sometimes get to watch filming while its being done! Our guide was super informative as well.

We really enjoyed walking around the stages where historical movies like the Godfather were recorded. The guided tour was very entertaining and full of details on how movies are made. The bad part was the price of the tickets which are clearly overpriced ($58 - 2 hours).

Great VIP tour experience. Approx 4+ hours.Tyler (our guide) was terrific! Nice late lunch in the prop room.

A wonderful experience and enlightening tour. Amelia was the best! She provided a wealth of knowledge and was so pleasant, personable and sharing. We went for the VIP tour which included lunch and I am glad that I did. Our small group even bonded during our short time together. Such a memorable experience.

It was so much fun to see the sets. We did not get to see any of the actors but there were filming some shows.

I came to Paramount as a part of an AMC Managers group. We had a tour and walked all over the Paramount Lot. We previously have been to Disney, and I can say that the tour guides here and the experience we had at Paramount was so much better. Our tour guides were great. Tiffany had so much energy! She was enthusiastic, funny and knowledgeable and really made our tour fun! We also got to have food and take pictures with lots of props and costumes. It is one of the best times I have had in forever.

Fascinating trip through the history of this historic studio. Loved the anecdotes about what went on in its hayday.

Fantastic tour! A great experience. You get to go into the Dr. Phil sound stage as well as see the whole studio. They have transformers from the movies as well. You can get a great view of the Hollywood sign mid tour.

Great tour! We saw set of Grace and Frankie, it was awesome. The history behind the films produced on site is amazing. The tour was guided with personal microphone headsets which were nice and clear.

This studio tour will take you back to the history of cinema and how movies were made then and how it has changed now. Forrest gump, The godfather, curious case of Benjamin button and transformers are few of the movies that this studio has produced.We visited places where movies/ TV series were shot in the studio and a Netflix show set as well (they have pretty high budgets :P).Our tour guide was very friendly and answered all our questions about the movies that were produced by paramount.There is a parking area in the photos below which has a crazy little story behind it. (Go visit the place to know more :P) You need to witness all this by yourself to understand the cinematic genius of the movies!

Excellent ‘behind the scenes’ tour. A great opportunity to learn more about filming.

Great tour with a fun history of Paramount. Friendly and fun tour guide that didnt seem fake and genuinely liked his job.

Well done tour with knowledgeable guide. You see production up-close and walk the steps of your favorite stars. Highly recommended.

This is a really fun tour! If youve never had a chance to see the Paramount lot you should definitely check this out! Even though Ive been on this lot many times, it was a lot of fun to walk around and have a guided tour. My tour guide Matt did an amazing job showing me around and letting me know all the little details about the history of the studio. I really enjoyed learning Paramounts rich history.

Attended a private event here. Didnt get too tour but was still cool to see the outdoor sets.

Lots of history unknown to me till now. Nellie was seriously the best and knowledgeable tour guide. Plus her and the staff when you get there are so nice...they especially accommodate to non drinkers, like the husband and I. The entire experience made it extremely memorable!

Great experience. Had a great time in the cart and seeing the history. Wonderful tour! Mitch was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and friendly.

This tour was 5 star from start to finish. Right when we walked in we were greeted and they explained exactly how everything was going to go. Our tour host was extremely nice and extremely funny. I would recommend taking this to her if you are into movies. I learned so much about the industry on this two-hour tour. They also have a lot of nice options in the gift shop for a reasonable price.

That was a lot of fun. and as with any of these tour it really is important who your guide is of course. Also, for the next time I would choose the VIP Tour.

It was cool seeing where some of the movies have been made.

We had an inredible tour guide! She asked what we were all most interested to see before we started and she focused on those things during the tour which was awesome! Loved seeing the set of Grace and Frankie!

The tour was really cool and it helped that our guide Josh was knowledge, funny, and upbeat. His guide made the sifference in the experience

I had a great time seeing so much Hollywood history. They keep their Oscars on display in the waiting room, where they roll lots of footage to get you in the mindset to learn about film production at Paramount. They show the backlot, working television studio sets, and props and set decorations from past films. The tour ends in the gift shop, with lots of Paramount logo items available.

My younger day TV show was Heres Lucy shot at Paramount Studios. It was great to see the behind-the-scenes props, settings and sceneries. very personalised tour. Not to be missed.

It was just an ok tour. The good thing about this tour are the anecdotes and stories about the place. When we went there was nothing really famous filming there, VEEP just wrapped. I was really excited about seeing places and stages for This Is Us but we didnt see anything. I guess it can be interesting if you are really into really old movies

Tour guide and staff were super helpful and knowledgable. The studio should highlight on more recent and famous pictures. Their tour is heavily influenced towards explaining old Era movies and artists.

Fun little studio tour. There isnt a lot to see on this studio tour but the history is deep. Since the Paramount lot absorbed other lots such as Desilu, the history is awesome! If you want a slice of Hollywood movie history without doing a huge theme park (Universal), this is the spot for you!

Really fun experience and the tour guide was great. Very knowledgeable and had a lot of fun extra tidbits to share about the grounds.

Ive always wanted to do this tour and I finally was able to do it! Let me tell you, Maya and Michael did not disappoint! They tailor made the tour to us. Maya was leading the tour as a newer member of Paramounts staff. She took time to get to know us in order to have the tour seem like it was ours. The tour is also for groups of 6 and that happened to be the size of our family and made it seem even more personal. I loved seeing inside the stages. It sure gives you a new perspective! Wandering around the backlot was also a treat. Quite amazing. I would definitely recommend stopping in for a tour. You wont be disappointed!

Had a great VIP tour with our tour guide Nora. Awesome experience!

Ive always wanted to visit a real Hollywood movie studio, and despite having lived in California at a few different times in my life, I never did a studio tour until today. Im so glad that I did, I had so much fun! Paramount is really proud of their heritage, and theyve worked hard to maintain their studios, and their legends. A single adult ticket cost me $58. They had tours running all day Saturday, with groups leaving every 30 minutes.

Friendliest staff ever and cleanest bathroom beyond my imagination, casting ladies were pretty and knowledgeble best pros!

An excellent tour provided by the page, Nina, with plenty of knowledge and enthusiasm about the studio, its history and current productions on the lot. Well worth a visit.

We ended up doing a VIP tour which we had an absolute blast. Katherine our guide was absolutely phenomenal, very professional and highly knowledgeable. She made our experience even that much better.

A nice way to spend a day - if you are a Brooklyn nine-nine fan this tour is for you. Book your ticket ahead online. Each tour group is limited in size.

A great experince with tour, a nice guide and unique secrets of movie making haha

We did the paramount studio tour on Sunday and what an experience. The security were nice when we got in there and our tour guide was great! I highly recommend this tour over the Warner brothers tour, the tour guides here are much nicer and are more then happy to answer as many questions as possible and make you feel comfortable!

This tour was so well done. Everyone who works here is so friendly, well trained on everything going on here. From the waiting room filled with memorabilia to the name badge with your name on it, it was all so professional and made it more of a memorable experience. Our tour guide, Molly, was funny, sweet and so nice. They make you so comfortable and even tailor your experience based on shows/movies you like. Molly throughout had remembered my favorite show and would point things out about it. I also loved that they were smaller groups, only about 6. The coolest part was also actually going on to the set of Grace & Frankie and seeing how everything is done! We recently went on a Sony tour, and it had nothing on this one. If you can only choose one, choose Paramount! Thanks for a great time!

Went on a Saturday, had a knowledgeable page running our tour. Was able to see a lot of the sets and lots because it was not a working day. Beautiful grounds and historic buildings.

I would suggest that if youre looking for a tour that features fiberglass sharks that leap out at you, read no further -- because this is not the tour for you! However, if you want a bare-bones, nuts-and-bolts immersion into the workings of a TV/film production facility -- with a barrel-full of entertainment history thrown in, THIS IS IT. From my research, and I did plenty, this is the best value of all the LA studio tours. We were the second tour that stepped of on a Saturday morning, and I believe there were not more that seven or eight people total. Our tour guide was Guya, and she was excellent -- if not a little too chipper for me at 10AM. However, she never made us feel rushed and had an answer for every question I flung at her (Half-way through, I realized that I was the only person asking questions. But, I quickly shed my bashfulness, recognizing that this was the fulfillment of a dream of a lifetime). There were more highlights than I should go into for the sake of brevity. Just standing at the Bronson Gate was a thrill, as was the backlot tour, a walk through the set of Grace and Franky and Dr. Phil, and....and....just being there. I have just two criticisms: The backlot tour was abbreviated, because part of it was being used for a current production, and the self-guided tour through a room with set pieces seemed perfunctory -- almost an afterthought. But beyond that, a chance to see how entertainment history was and still is being made -- without all the theme park clatter of other tours -- was a dream come true. For the price, the Paramount Studio Tour was well worth the money, and I highly recommend it. (PS: Parking is nearby but cost $18. Do it. Just do it. )

We had a great time on our tour. It was a small group of 5 people so it felt very intimate and personalized for us which is an amazing feat for such a large attraction. We learned a lot about the studios history and we even got to see a live set/taping of Grace and Frankie!

Its not a tour, its a way of life.Working at this place is one of a movie junkies goals in life. Loads of history and you can almost feel the spirits of cinemas past wandering throughout the property.The buildings are graceful and remind me of stables at the track. You can tell there is so much history here and its always a privilege to wander around.

It was very long. I loved our guide Bryce. In Comparison to Warner Bros, it fell flat. I just wanted more open sets to look at. Most of it we were cruising through the beige back lot. Frieze LA was going on and online it says we should receive tickets and entrance to it but we werent. Save your money.

The tour was interesting. It always fascinating to see how they take short cuts in movies and use the same scene in many movies. I saw Warner Brothers studio earlier in the day and found that more interesting out of the two.Overall, it was good to go along.

This is the best studio tour in LA. It is personal, informative and offers the best experience. Matt was my guide and he was amazing. I recommend coming here!

To be honest, i was a bit underwhelmed by this tour. There were lots of interesting parts of the lot we were unable to see or take photos of, for example the area made to look like New York where there was a music video being shot that day so were unable to get up close to it or take pictures. I was not completely convinced it was worth $60. If you are a serious film buff and know a lot about the history of film making, you would find it interesting, but unfortunately quite a lot of the people the guide referred to went over my head as they were from a bygone era. We got to see the area they use for water scenes (a parking lot the rest of the time) and the studio set where they make Grace and Frankie. This was quite interesting to see how they make it appear on TV having seen the studio set! Also the ‘prop store’ is quite a small selection of items from past and in many cases lesser known films. I think this tour is a triumph of marketing over substance!.

Amazing tour! Mackenzie gave us a great tour and was always happy to tell more stories and brought the sets to life. Highly recommend.

Definitely a must see if you’re in town! As a filmmaker, I was incredibly humbled to be where tons of films and TV shows are and continue to be shot. Had a fun couple in my group and our tour guide Josh was amazing and spoke like a guy who enjoyed his job! 10 outta 10, would bring a friend or two to do it again someday!

Thanks to Kirsten for a wonderful tour, very interesting and well facilitated

Having a lot of fun seeing behind the scenes and getting the 411 on movie magic+

Visit the sets of your favorite TV series, walk along the film stage pavilions

This is better than the theme park experience at Universal. Not sure why that’s even called a tour? It’s a ride. This is an actual tour.The Paramount tour is on a stretch golf cart. Six, maybe seven total to each tour. Much smaller, more instructional. You are able to get off the cart and actually walk through some indoor and outdoor sets. Gives you a much better perspective of what it takes to make a show.

A lot of history here if youre in the area I encourage you to check it out!

Our tour guide, Stanton, did a great job showing around the studio grounds. Very informative. Friendly and professional. Nice touch showing us movie clips filmed at whatever spot we were at. We even got to visit the actual set of Grace and Frankie.

Excellent behind the scenes tour of a studio that brought us Braveheart, The Ten Commandments, The Godfather, and so much more. Highly recommended!

Amazing and interesting tour! Gives you great insight on historic and current productions filmed in paramount studios (on set tour of Grace and Frankie)!!!! Goes around the entire grounds. Tour guide Alexis was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the studios! The tour is definitely a must do when in Hollywood!

There were seven in our family and that was one tour. our guide was well versed and we went to so many arrays where they were still shooting! It was great.

Really fun place to be with lots of movie and TV history. I’ve done the tour 3-4 times now and learned new things every time. I have a family member that works here so I get to see a few extra bits when I visit and I find it all so fun and exciting to see.

Very interesting. The tour is mostly focused on the history and classic movies. But if you love movies, must see.

Absolutely a brilliant experience. Erin, our very knowledgeable and wonderful guide, was fantastic. Well worth every cent. Loved every minute! Thank you

We enjoyed the tour !! Our guide was Shave , very knowledgeable,charismatic.. such a great person!! He made our tour really excited !! Highly recommend him as a tour guide .

One of the best tours i went on private tours are one of the best with so much history in the studio. Really loved the props during the tour. Our tour guide was amazing and i forgot her name.

Really outstanding tour. Our guide, Santiago, was informative and entertaining. We spent two hours walking around the lot and stages. There are no rides or 3d animatronics. This is for film buffs and people who want to see behind the scenes how movies and TV shows are madeSkip Universal and spend 2 hours at Paramount

Tiffany was very nice. Sweet girl. I wish we could have met 1 celebrity. That would been the icing on the cake! Very knowledgeable with whatever you needed to ask her.

Los Angeles times the taste... Is an amazing location to taste phenomenal foods. I highly recommend this

I really cant recommend this tour enough. It was so interesting and easily the best thing we did in Hollywood. Worth every penny of the 60 dollar admission.

Oldest studios in Hollywood and still as picturesque as it was in the Golden Era. Great little tour too. Dont miss it.

The Paramount Studio tour is both historical and current. Visitors are shuttled around the Lot while the Guides point out the various sound stages and the films that were made in them (the plaques outside the lot door memorializes them too). Im a native Angelena. I didnt know if I would really get into it. I did! Its great fun and very informative.
