Just walked in the door from a great day at Hershy. All week we watched the weather and it held out till we got on a tram back to our car. Here's my review... We have come here the past 3 years the sunday of Memorial Day weekend. It has never been croweded. Even with Skyrush opening, there weren't really... More

Had great time at Hershey Park at the end of May. Lines were short or non existant for the majority of the rides. Even the newest coaster only had a wait of about one hour for the members of our party that tried it. Food prices were very high. Most food had to be purchased in 'COMBO' form, meaning the... More

Myself and two young kids went to Hershey Park Memorial Day weekend. We did the preview the night before which is a great option. We rode the big coasters the night before when the lines weren't very long and saved the rest for the next day. The water park area was very cool. However, I believe its silly to wait... More

long lines for young children (5, 6, 7)... we waited on average 45 min for very short rides. my children were too young for the fun coasters and the park was packed for their spring weekend package. i would probably not return, i prefer knobels for my family :) More

I took my kids here, and they loved it, the rides are great, no long waits in lines. Food and drink expensive. Must see the chocolate museum, great place! I am sure in the future i will be returning. More

Were to start...I went to hershey park just last year for a end of the school year pinic and it has been my first time back in years. Let me just say, worth every cent. The first thing you should do is go straight for the chocolate factory. When you first walk all you smell is warm chocolate and the... More

We had a blast at Hershey Park. I expected much more 'in your face' about Hershey but it really just felt like a Six Flags with some Hershey characters every once in a while. The rides were awesome - I especially recommend the Great Bear! The park is so clean and everyone was so nice! Its a great place to... More

Hershey Park is one of the best amusement park in the Northeast. It's clean, clean clean! The food is average park food but the friendly service makes up for that. The crowds are manageable because of the size of the park. Walking along the river, there is always a bench available to take a break from the awesome roolercoasters or... More
