Universal Studios Hollywood is considered one of the country’s premiere entertainment destinations. The popular theme park got its start in the 1960s by offering tram tours of its property, but didn’t become a full-fledged tourist attraction until the late 1980s. Today, millions of television and movie fans flock to the 415-acre complex located just north of downtown Los Angeles to witness the secrets behind Hollywood’s finest cinematic masterpieces.

Many of the theme park’s most popular attractions are based on Universal films and television shows, including:

• Revenge of the Mummy-The Ride
• Jurassic Park-The Ride
• The Simpsons Ride
• Terminator 2: 3D
• Shrek 4-D
• Fear Factor Live
• House of Horrors
• Desperate Wives neighborhood tour
• Dr. Seuss's Whoville tour
• Earthquake simulator
• Jaws encounter

Despite a major fire in 2008, the park remains open and fully operational; that’s the good news. The bad news is that the monstrous fun featured at the popular theme park doesn’t come cheap. Fortunately, savvy park goers can save a bundle on Universal Studios admission prices by using coupons. There are several reputable sites where you can obtain money-saving coupons, including…

Coupons are a terrific way to save money on admission to Universal Studios Hollywood; however, not all coupons are authentic. In the past there have been reports of counterfeit coupons and tickets being produced and issued outside the park. To ensure you are not getting ripped off it’s a good idea to conduct research on questionable coupons. A good place to start is RipoffReport.com. The website lists fraudulent coupon offers and warns, if a deal is too good to be true, then it's probably a scam.

Finally, if you plan to use a coupon, pay close attention to the expiration date. The savings will only be honored during the time period specified on the coupon. Many of the coupons currently being offered expire prior to the opening of the new King Kong ride. (The original ride was damaged in a fire during the summer of 2008.) However, Universal Studios Hollywood executives have announced that a new King Kong ride, based on the recent Peter Jackson movie is scheduled to debut in 2010. The tram will reportedly represent Naomi Watts' character and will travel through a fight scene featuring King Kong and a T-Rex.
