Just Moooov. Fold, Ride, Repeat.

Universal Studios Hollywood offers one of the most immersive theme park experiences in Los Angeles, but navigating its sprawling backlot and multiple levels can be challenging without proper mobility assistance. With the right mobility scooter rental and insider knowledge, you can maximize your Universal experience while staying comfortable throughout your visit.

Why Universal Studios Hollywood is Perfect for Mobility Scooters

Multi-Level Park Design

Universal Studios Hollywood is built into the Hollywood Hills, featuring both upper and lower lots connected by the famous Studio Tour. A mobility scooter allows you to navigate between levels effortlessly and enjoy attractions without worrying about steep walkways or long distances.

Extensive Walking Distances

The park covers 415 acres with attractions spread across different themed areas. From the Wizarding World of Harry Potter to Jurassic World, you'll cover significant ground during a full day visit. A mobility scooter ensures you can experience everything without fatigue.

Crowd Navigation

Universal Studios can get extremely crowded, especially during peak seasons. Mobility scooters provide a comfortable way to move through crowds while maintaining your energy for the attractions you want to experience most.

Insider Tips for Universal Studios with Mobility Scooters

Pre-Visit Planning

Book Your Scooter Early
Universal Studios is busy year-round, but peak seasons (summer, holidays, Halloween Horror Nights) see massive crowds. Reserve your MOOOOV scooter well in advance to ensure availability.
Download the Universal Studios App
The official app shows real-time wait times, attraction closures, and accessibility information. This helps you plan your scooter route efficiently.
Consider Express Passes
With limited mobility, Express Passes can be invaluable for skipping regular lines. This maximizes your time and reduces the physical strain of waiting in long queues.

Arrival and Parking

Preferred Parking is Worth It
The closer parking structures save significant walking distance to the park entrance. With a mobility scooter, this convenience is especially valuable.
Security Checkpoint Strategy
Arrive early to avoid long security lines. Security staff are experienced with mobility devices and will efficiently screen your scooter.
Guest Services First Stop
Visit Guest Services immediately upon entry to get your Disability Access Service (DAS) pass if needed. This provides alternative access to attractions.
