Along the tour, guests will be disembarking from the trolley to tour the sets of movies such as: “War of the Worlds,” “Bruce Almighty,” “Back to the Future,” “Spartacus,” and much more. Also included in your day is valet parking, an all-you-can-eat pass, and backstage meet and greets, as well as VIP seating at all shows.
