Short answer The best WB Studio Tour Hollywood ticket for most people is the classic Studio Tour, from €70 on GetYourGuide. It takes about 3 hours: a guided ride around the working Warner Bros. lot in Burbank, then the self-guided Stage 48 with the real Central Perk set from Friends. Children must be at least 5. Old-movie fans should look at the TCM Classic Films Tour instead.

The studio Warner Bros. tour: what you see inside

You see a real, working film and TV studio, plus a hands-on soundstage at the end. First, a guide takes a group of up to 14 around the backlot and sound stages. Then you explore Stage 48: Script to Screen on your own, with the real Central Perk set from Friends.

The route changes from day to day. Warner Bros. says it may vary with the studio's production needs, and some areas may be closed. That is the honest catch: you may not see the set you hoped for.

Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood tickets: which one to book

Book the classic Studio Tour unless you love old films or have no car. On GetYourGuide it starts from €70, sold by Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood itself.

Warner Bros. Studio Tour tickets for longer visits

Warner Bros. also sells longer tours on its own site. The Studio Tour Plus adds the Property Department and lunch at the Central Perk Cafe. The Deluxe Tour lasts about 6 hours, with a 3-hour guided tour of the lot. The TCM Classic Films Tour, our second pick, takes about 3.5 hours.

Warner Bros. Studio Tour LA: getting there and parking

The tour starts at 3400 Warner Blvd in Burbank, not in Hollywood. Warner Bros. says parking at the Tour Center costs $20 per car. Without a car, the shuttle package above includes a round trip from Hollywood.

Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood photos: what you can shoot

You can take photos in many places, but not everywhere. Warner Bros. says your guide will tell you where photos are allowed, and video is not allowed at all. The Central Perk set on Stage 48 is the classic photo spot.

Los Angeles studio tours: Warner Bros. or Universal?

Pick Warner Bros. for a guided look at a working TV and film lot. Pick Universal for a full theme-park day with a tram tour of its backlot. Warner Bros. is about the sets and the stories, with a guide and a group of up to 14. Universal adds rides and shows, and its Studio Tour is part of the day ticket.

If you want both, compare the two in our Universal Studios Los Angeles tickets guide.

Warner Studio Tour Hollywood review: is it worth it?

Yes, if you love Friends, The Big Bang Theory or film-making. The guided part on a real lot feels close to the work going on there. It is less worth it if you expect a theme park, because there are no rides.

Our review is based on the tour pages and the official facts, not on our own visit. On GetYourGuide, the classic tour holds 4.6 from 8,833 reviews.
