    This was the best vacation I’ve had in a long time. So much to do in Hershey and I didn’t get to do it all but we still had a good time. We went to Hershey park and to chocolate world. Hershey park was really not expensive for the tickets. The food and amenities were expensive but it is an amusement park so that’s to be expected obviously. Altogether we had a great time. We went to the zoo which was by far one of the best and most intimate experiences I’ve had in a zoo. I wanted to go to Amish country but didn’t get the chance. I would recommend everyone to go at least once in their lifetimes because you get to see the history of how everything was made and created. I don’t think I will go again with the kids because we have already seen everything and not much changes up there however, I will take my wife back just to see Amish country. There are more adult things to do there and ways to enjoy yourself. I’ll be posting that review as soon as I’m able to get back up there.

    Hersheypark is AMAZING. What else can you say. This has been on our bucket list for years and now we are finally able to scratch it off of our list. It was just an amazing experience. We can’t wait to come back again. Now we can confirm how much fun you could have. It makes you feel like a kid again.

    It's a nice place to be with kids as with any other amusement park. The tickets are not that expensive but probably they need more staff the manage the crowd. Few rides were not working and sometimes even the vending machines and food services kiosks were too slow. Ultimately, we had fun but could have been better. You need at least 3 days to cover all rides and attractions.

    We had an absolutely delightful experience at Hersheypark. The park offers rides for all ages at a reasonable price. We spent the entire day at the park, from opening to closing, and there was an abundance of activities to keep us entertained. The park is well-maintained and the staff is friendly and helpful. The park’s cleanliness and attention to detail are commendable. We highly recommend Hersheypark to families looking for a fun and memorable day out. Upon entering the park, we were greeted by a friendly staff member who provided us with a map and answered all our questions. The park is well-organized, and the map was easy to follow. We started our day with the Cocoa Cruiser, a family-friendly roller coaster that was a great way to ease into the day. We then moved on to the Laff Trakk, an indoor spinning coaster that was a lot of fun. The Wild Mouse was another highlight, with its sharp turns and sudden drops. We also enjoyed the Ferris Wheel, which provided a great view of the park. The park has a variety of food options, from snacks to full meals. We enjoyed a delicious lunch at the Chickie’s & Pete’s stand, which offered a variety of seafood and other options. The park also has plenty of restrooms, which were clean and well-maintained. Overall, we had a fantastic time at Hersheypark. The park offers something for everyone, and we can’t wait to go back!

    Loved the whole idea of Hersey Park, but it was crazy! The amount of people that were there was way to much. It made it impossible to do very much at all. Lines were so long for everything. The food and drink package was a awesome touch. But it took a long time in a line to get anything. If you ever plan on coming here make a plan. Rent a cabana in the water park. Get the pass to get in early. Choose days during the week M-Thurs. Stay more then 1 day, you are going to need it. And makes sure you stay in a hotel that shuttles you to the park. This way you have a way better chance to really enjoy your experience.

    This is a really nice park that our family really enjoyed visiting. The park seemed really clean and well staffed. We enjoyed the preview night the two hours before our first night. We rented a cabana for our water park day and it was great. They had their own bathrooms and exclusive grill. We got free soft drinks. The staff for the cabanas would make want to do the cabanas again just for them.

    My experience with Hershey Park, I came here specifically for the world of chocolate and I was not disappointed. As for parking, it was good and they had a large space, and there was also a bus to transport visitors to the garden and to the chocolate factory. The facility was very wonderful. As for the chocolate factory, there are chocolate displays and the chocolate factory tour was not from the actual factory, but everything was very enjoyable. I thought it would be more aimed at kids but fun for adults too. If you enjoy adult drinks, you will also find many Hershey-themed drinks. As for the Hershey park, it was very enjoyable and I recommend games to those who like challenges. The facilities were clean, despite the presence of a large number on the weekend. This is a very nice thing. As for the games, I advise They have children whose ages range from 7 years and above so that you and your children can enjoy the games. There are also games, but few for children. Some of the games were closed, I expect, due to the Halloween party being held and the pressure growing in the park, but I, my family, and my children were happy in this beautiful experience.

    We had another great visit to Hershey Park today! We love this park. We especially enjoy the Halloween events. There is something for everyone here - kiddie rides, family rides, roller coasters, dining, arcades, games, shopping. The lines vary from ride to ride. You have the opportunity to buy a fast track pass for an additional cost to get on the rides without waiting. We ate dinner in the park and the food was pretty good to be from a kiosk. The prices are what you would expect: expensive. All staff members were kind and helpful, the restrooms we used were clean and well stocked. The park offers water fill up stations, so bring your own refillable water bottle to save money. Overall, we had an awesome day and we can’t wait to come back!

    Had an amazing weekend at Hersheypark. This park offer you with loads of fun and crazy activities. The Hershey Chocolate park is also great place for chocolate lovers, will love the actual process of chocolate making. Amusement park have so many rides that can’t be covered within a day, I was able to finish 5 roller coasters and few more rides as well. The crowd is huge, the lines on rides is also big and goes bigger in the peak afternoon hours. Just for the information, the waterpark & all water rides are open only till 5pm, though the whole park is open till 7pm. Definitely will visit again to cover remaining roller coasters.

    My teenage daughter enjoy this place so much. Pass wasn’t cheap, but worth it. I was hoping the opening hours can be 9am instead of 11am. Food inside the park was okay, parking was simple! Will come back soon to enjoy the water park. If they can open more ticketing booth, that’ll be great.

    From open to close we had a great time. The only downside right now is some of the rides are closed. Possibly staffing issues like everyone else in the country. I totally understand. The coasters are open and it was a good time. We did not buy fast pass. If its a busy day you may have to. Some rides had 2 hour wait times. This is the end of the season. Hard to find hotels last minute. Book in advance if you want to make a weekend of it. Definitely worth the crowds. Hershey park is a great experience.

    I’ve been going to Hershey park off and on since I was a teen. It’s such a great place to go and spend a day riding rides! I really appreciate that they have rides for all thrill levels! We usually have some people who love intense rides and some who appreciate the smaller simpler rides so I love that there’s something for everyone! everything is always clean here and you can tell them employees are very well trained at their jobs. Safety precautions are always followed too!

    No cash used at park; credit/debit cards only. Kiosks available to provide cards that can be loaded w/value if you don't want to use a credit card. Convenient/timely trams pick up/return you to parking field. The water park needs it own day if you want to do it all. No coolers allowed, but with the trams, its easy to go back and forth if you want to pack a lunch. Food court is very busy- be prepared to wait on line; dining seating could be an issue if you're a larger group. Suit changing area in water park. Lockers throughout the park; small lockers $18 (good for 2 people), larger locker slightly higher. Wear comfortable shoes and prepare for LOTS of walking. The less you have to carry the better for a fuller experience. (Summer 2022)

    It's cool to walk around the park even if you're not so into rollercoasters. It can get crowded at times, but it's still large enough of a park that you don't feel too confined. Wait times are not horribly long but not super short either. The park is definitely geared more towards people who like big rollercoasters.

    Went here during a camping trip in December of 2021. They had the park decorated for Christmas. Tons of lights. Lots of activities. They had seasonal foods and drinks. Only a fraction of the rides were operational during this time of year (cold). We had a blast. We saw Saint Nick, his reindeer, beautiful displays… we took a ride on their monorail which gives you a spectacular Birds Eye view of the park. This is all happening in the evening mind you. It was a great experience and got us in the Christmas spirit big time. Dressing in layers is a must. Make sure the kiddies are bundled up. PA is quite cold in December.

    Service was good and rides were great. In order to get the full experience, you should spend at least a day at the park. I recommend you bring a bottle of water with you since this is a very large park. Kids will enjoy this and the Boardwalk in my opinion is the highlight of this place. Tidal Force was the best water-themed ride. The food wasn’t that great. It’s best to buy these tickets when they’re online or on a deal. Overall, it’s a good place to visit this summer.

    We brought our children and grandchildren (total of 8 people) here for our first visit. Handicap parking was close to the entrance. I obtained an ADA access booklet from guest services to allow easier ride entrance for rides I wanted to go on. The staff makes the process pretty easy and they were all very helpful. There were a lot of school trips visiting the day we went but it still wasn't overly crowded. The most popular rides had a longer wait, as expected. We did not visit the water area while we visited the park. Of course, the food is expensive but they do offer an all day dining option. We did purchase the cups with free refills and we were glad we did. There are refill stations all over the park. The park was very clean and all of the staff we interacted with were polite and knowledgeable. Overall, everyone had a great time and we will definitely visit again.

    A great place to explore and ride some roller coasters! They just opened some new rides and had a lot of things to do. The parks hours were pretty short being the summer (only open for 8 hours) and a lot of things seemed to be understaffed. That being said, it was still a great experience and there was a lot to do! Apparently the chocolate world experience is a good thing to do after the park, but it closed an hour before the park closed :/. Good to always check to he hours.

    Some of the rides were closed but the rides that were open were good. Although it was around Christmas time that we visited, still had lots of people in the lines. I suggest getting in early when the park opens to get on your favorite rides. Towards 4 PM started to see more people getting in, as they have beautiful holiday lights decorated all over the park.

    The happiest place on earth. What a fantastic place to spend your vacation. The rides are very fun and the lines are long but everybody expects that. Very clean park. The food is delicious. Prices are sky high just like the rides. But who doesn't want to dance with chocolate characters and create their own Hershey Bar at the Hershey Chocolate factory? Dream come true ❤️ Absolutely a must place to visit as a kid and an adult 👌.

    What an awesome place! The weather was PERFECT! Being that I'm from Louisiana and have been experiencing Temps of over 100 degrees, the breezy and sunny weather here was welcoming! The park was very clean and wasn't overcrowded. The food was pretty good but the main favorite of my family was the thrilling roller coasters! If you're a thrill seeker, this place is for you! They have some really cool roller coaster rides! My teenage kids had so much fun riding all of the rides and even went to the Waterpark area and had a blast there too! The lines weren't too long and the entire trip was very pleasant. We will definitely be returning!

    This is one of the best amusement parks I have ever been to. We had so much fun, it's full of roller-coasters and after a whole day there we weren't able to ride them all (started to rain heavily). Also they have nice stores and great food options. And we really didn't have to wait that long to ride every time. I extremely recommend going there, and would definitely come back again.

    This was my first time visiting for the holiday season. It was very pretty but overally crowded in some of the attractions. We weren't able to see everything they had to offer because they closed so early, even on a Friday. Chocolate World was closed as well, and so we're most of the rides. It was a nice experience but I wouldn't come back during the holidays. I feel like it was too expensive for what it was.

    Hershey Park - One of the best parks for kids, young kids and adults. It has all the amazing rides for kids and grown ups. The best part is their preview. So if you are going, you can visit the park for 2 hours on previous evening before the park closes. This is the best time, usually people are about to leave the park and you enter. We did most of thrilling rides at this time only. That way, we could focus on kids ride for next two days. Park is huge and takes 15 mins walk at least from entrance to all the way to end with some uphill. There are 5 sub-parks/areas within the park & all are accessible any time of the day. Mind it, weekends are busy and there's no limit to people. On Saturday, we could hardly do 3-4 rides. Wait times were over an hour. Food - There are good options available and prices are similar to restaurant prices. Good vegetarian options for us were Subway, Moe's, Starbucks etc. However, all day dining is a good option too. Drinking tap water is available across the park. Drinking package water is expensive, almost $4 a bottle.

    Very nice park. Was surprised at the amount (14) and high thrill level of roller-coasters in the park. Also enjoyed the little zoo inside the park. Food was ok but not at top of my list of parks for eating. Not many other rides than the coasters, not sure about the water park it was closed when we were there at the end of May.

    Wonderful place to have fun with families and friends. I love this park a lot, but I wish that while we were waiting in line, there were umbrellas or something to cover us from the sun. All of the rides are amazing, although some are very scary. The food is a little pricey, so I would recommend eating out or making sure you eat enough to not need to eat inside if you don't plan on spending a lot of money. In conclusion, Hershey Park is a great place to enjoy! We had a great time there! P.S. You guys have the best ice-cream I have ever tried!

    We went to Hersheypark this past Sunday. We got to the park when it opened at 10 am. We headed straight to the water park so it would not be so crowded. We had lots of fun in the water park. We met up with our friends and we went to the zoo. Did a ton of walking, went on a couple of rides, but the coasters were just too long to wait for. The only criticism I have is that there needs to be more attendants to navigate through the park. My son had a lot of fun in the chocolate world, and the experience was neat. I'm definitely going back there!

    Was excited to take my son who was in the area for a visit as he had not been on Candymonium and enjoys roller coasters. Yes, the lights are nice but if NONE of the coasters are open shouldn’t that information be shared before ticket is purchased. Fortunately I am a season pass holder so didn’t waste money on parking or my ticket but felt I had to keep apologizing because there was a 1 hr wait for only open adult ride and the lights were out on several sections of 12 days of Christmas around the park. I understand there are limitations with the temperature and rides but post closures at the gate or as a heading on the map. We just glanced at wait times on the map in general on the app. Did not open each ride to see if it was running. It would be more user friendly if the app had a closed ride heading. Disappointed!! Sweet lights drive through was worth the trip- interesting theme sections. Santa held a sign to count the Rudolf’s but never saw a number posted at the end. Search games like that would make it more fun for families.

    Hershey Park in the wintertime is absolutely beautiful! Lights everywhere and the reindeer are adorable. The staff watching over the reindeer are very knowledgeable and happy to give any information you may need. Not all of the rides are open during the off season but you don't have to deal with the long lines of the summer.

  • 5/5 Pr!ncess A. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved my time at Hersheypark. Even though I don’t particularly like roller coasters, I was able to enjoy smaller rides with my niece while the rest of the family enjoyed the big ones. Staff are friendly and helpful to guests. And there is plenty of places to just sit and take in the family friendly environment/atmosphere. I drove from VA and I think it was worth it. Definitely a hit over old Kings Dominion.

    I’m a season pass holder, great perks, like VIP parking, food, and drinks bonuses. I come here multiple times a year, visit all the Hershey venues, and every time, it’s the best time ever! Love the coasters, and all of the thrill rides, Hershey Park I. The Dark, and Christmas are the best times to go in my opinion! Definitely recommend, but if you come on a Friday or Saturday be prepared for crowds!

    I love Hershey park so much. They have tons of rides, shops, and other fun stuff that goes on. They even have a zoo! I used to go a lot for marching band competitions in their stadium which was so fun and we would go on the rides and shopping afterwards before awards. Very clean and nice staff! Wonderful place to visit.

  • 5/5 Don S. 1 year ago on Google
    Fun for the whole family. My wife enjoyed the park even though she is 6 months pregnant because of zoo and water animal show. My kids loved the whole experience. Only down side many attractions were closed due to our late in the season visit. We did love all of the Halloween festivities though.

    Our family of 7 came to Lebanon for Thanksgiving and made the trip to Hershey and had a great time. We spent a full day, 10 hours at the park. Everyone had a great time on rides and enjoyed many different foods.

    Awesome! Great place to enjoy your holiday with family or friends. There were countless rides to keep us entertained while we were there from opening to closing. Some of the rides were not being run no more, not sure why. The rides there is made for people of all ages. Theres kid friendly rides.If you enjoy extreme and thrilling roller coster rides, this is also a place to go. I came during new years eve, the wait time was at most 30 minutes and lots of rides with no wait. The rides operators are really kind. I came in january, so the water park wasn’t opened.

  • 5/5 David R. 1 year ago on Google
    We go to Hershey Park on yearly trip and really enjoy it. Everything about the park is great, the environment, the cleanliness, even the right operators are pretty good :-). The addition of the new wildcat ride, which frankly is one of the best rides I've ever been on is great. The extra hour of time in the park in the morning by staying at a Hershey resort is well worth it as well. Highly recommended. One thing I would note, the water roller coaster is 100% not worth the wait. Very few people can load at the same time, and it's a very fast ride, which really has very little that makes it worthwhile.

  • 4/5 David R. 3 years ago on Google
    We went to the Christmas Candylane and enjoyed our experience. The Noel synchronized light display was probably my favorite, although there were lots of pretty lights throughout the park. Riding the Ferris Wheel and Kissing Tower at night provided great views of the park lit up with lights. The one negative was the lines were longer than we expected, meaning we couldn't do all the rides that we were hoping for. When you leave, make sure to stop at Milton's Ice Cream Parlor for some delicious ice cream.

  • 4/5 Tammy R. 1 year ago on Google
    Our roller coaster family made our first trip to the park the last week of June. Great park with a lot to offer. The 2 hour before close preview prior to your day visit is a nice perk. We do wish there were more flat rides. We spent 2 days at the park. There were plenty of drink stands and food options. The layout is like a T, so there is a lot of backtracking to get to the next area. Also, Wildcat's Revenge was down but we had to walk all the way to that area to find that out. The app was not updated at the park's opening. An announcement or sign at the entrance would've been nice. Although we didn't go to the waterpark, it is a bonus along with Zoo America, which is included in your ticket price. All in all, we had a great time and will eventually make the long drive again.

  • 5/5 Doug P. 1 year ago on Google
    This is an all day event. Every ride will have lines but they are worth the wait. Not super busy in early morning or late afternoon I think we were able to get on all the major rollercoasters at least once. Park was super clean but very busy. May want to make a two day trip.

  • 4/5 Sheila S. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a pretty fun amusement park for kids it's bigger than I thought. The water park is fun. Just lines too long. We bought the express pass to skip line for $115.00 each a bit pricey, and there still a 10 to 20 mins wait. Also, do not bring any food or drinks inside they will ask you to throw it away. It's a good experience for the family. I would recommend it if you're looking for a park to go this summer. Also, make sure to wear comfy shoes it requires a lot of walking.

  • 5/5 Jim B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great rides for all ages. Easy to get around. Lots of water stations to keep hydrated. We got tickets for the afternoon happy hour option and bought them before we went to make sure it wasn't raining. Price was reasonable. Short lines for the rides.

  • 4/5 Melissa 1 year ago on Google
    Great fun, as always! I've been coming here since I was a kid, and it is so interesting to see how it's changed. I was using the park app, and the wait times for rides were off - it would say 45-minute wait, and we ended up in line for 15 minutes. So, it was off in a good way, but it was just something I noticed. Not overly thrilled with the food choices in the park, but I am excited to try The Chocolatier. First time in years having a season pass - looking forward to more adventures!

  • 5/5 Elizabeth V. 1 year ago on Google
    We had so much fun yesterday at Hershey Park. We are a family of four. We have a teenager and a toddler. My husband is a roller coaster enthusiast and I am a little less of an enthusiast. We visit every amusement we can. Some are better suited to adults and some to children. It's great when it's well balanced and Hershey Park is!! I wish there was more chocolate. LoL but seriously I was SO in the mood for chocolate fountains ! Loved the refill cups and cashless system. The lines were not bad at all especially for the first half of the day! The app was very helpful except my husband had it too they read wait times differently. For example : mine said 30 min wait and his said 15 minute wait for the same ride. All in all, great time!! See the sea animal show, it's adorable.

    Full candy-themed amusement park with plenty of engaging rides and TONS of coasters to ride. Fun and clearly marked ride height tools based around different candy bars. Lots of general park food to eat at reasonable prices. Bathrooms were a bit small but there were a lot of them so if full, just walk a bit to the next one. Overall a great family theme park centered around Milton Hershey and his chocolate empire.

    It's an awesome park but you need minimum 2 days for it. There's a lot of walking and a lot of lines so if you don't want to miss anything in the park, be there before they open and get as much done the first day and than continue the other half on the second day. It's very diverse and all the employees around the park are very friendly and knowledgeable.

    The Best Chocolate and Great Coasters. This is such a Great park. A Great line up of coasters for a park not owned by the Big chain of parks and to me that's what makes it so Great. That home town feel of friendly people and a Great variety of entertainment and food for all ages. Over 2 day's at the park and not a single break downs or delay on any of the rides of which I could not say about the Big chain parks. This is truly the Sweetest place on Earth. This is a place you must Experience. If it's not on your Bucket list, put it on there. I hope to one day be able to come visit this Great park and friendly community that the Town of Hershey has been to my family and I.

    Lots of fun, great atmosphere. I live 20 min from Hershey Park and have season passes for my 2 children and I, I have been going to Hershey Park since I was a child and it just keeps getting more awesome and is never boring!! Very family friendly and lots of shade and benches to rest on, great place for all ages!!!

    Enjoy my time there it is clean and the employee's are very nice and helpful the only problem I see every time I go is the line to get in they need something to help people stay in the right line to enter like a line bearer or something but overall enjoyable
