    Absolutely the best car museum we have ever been to!All the vehicle displays were awesome with a great variety of cars. The added bonus was the train display and the gentlemen who volunteered were a wealth of information. We really enjoyed it and would highly recommend.

    Michael in the butterfly atrium was amazing! We were there with a group including children and he taught us all so much!!! So friendly, interactive and interesting. He captured the attention of a 9 and 11 year old, that is tough to do. Truly made the experience for us!!! The Christmas tree display was nice and the outdoor gardens, despite the time of year was still enjoyable and peaceful to walk through.

    It was very nice to see the history. It's a self-guided tour. My daughter and I enjoyed it and especially enjoyed doing the chocolate tasting at the end. If you're a teacher you get a $3 discount off of admission!

    Went for 2 days with 7 people ranging from the age of 4 to 50 and I would say that everyone had a great time. There is a good variety of kiddie rides, a handful of shows but my favorite which are the roller coaster are awesome. There is a small zoo that’s included with your ticket and there are water rides but they only open on summer. There are various candy characters around the park for photo opportunities. Plenty of places to eat so you can choose and it’s your typical amusement park food. I want to say that one day could be enough to visit but that really depends on the crowds

    The concert was amazing, KC and the Sunshine Band got down. We needed assistance because of physical disabilities. DEENA, one of your staff members was very helpful and took care of our needs. Shout out to your amazing staff and kudos to Ms DEENA , thank you very much. Barry M Carlisle, Pa

    Our visit to Hershey's Chocolate World is always a fun experience. We enjoyed the ride through the chocolate making "factory." The day we went in mid-December, there were no crowds and we had the car all to ourselves.

    After the ride, of course the next fun thing to do is to explore the Hershey store. There are lots of choices and some products that you don't normally see anywhere else in retail outlets.

    This was definitely worth the visit.

    I took my dad there for a reminder tour of when he and his brother (who graduated from Hershey Industrial School for Boys) and saw the picture of my uncle in the registry at Founders Hall. Very happy I took my dad back there before he died!! I enjoyed seeing the Founders Hall as well as my dad did. It brought back many memorized for him for good and bad. My uncle is deceased but my dad was glad to see his brother's picture and remember old times there.

    Cirque du soleil was amazing. It was my first time to see them. The Giant Center, however, was a money pit, overcharging for everything from water to french fries. I have to say that the real shocker was the parking fee.

    After paying about 78$ for tickets to the show, we were slammed with a $20 parking fee! Unbelievable! To top things off, the parking attendant was rude and when I questioned the exorbitant cost of parking, she rudely said, how about if I just let everyone else go around you. Very unprofessional.

    We stopped here in our way out of town. We spent an hour here. There was a lot of cool things to look at. The employees here were the most attentive that I've encountered at such a store. When we found something, they would keep it at the register for us. They were very helpful. We brought home several items. I would recommend this stoyto any of e who likes a good flea market.

    When the kids (or you!) are getting tired of the rides and attractions of Hershey Park this is a great place to visit for a change of scenery and pace. The animal exhibits are expertly maintained and it is very easy to get around. All you need is about 2 hours to see the entire zoo.

    I highly recommend getting the zoo add-on tickets if you're visiting Hershey Park with your kids!

    Small but wanted to see the exhibit on Major Dick Winters made famous by the HBO series Band of Brothers. They reproduced his office in corner of museum. Learned more about the man. Price only $5.00 per person
