Great with Special Needs Teen
Apr 2022 • Family
I deeply appreciate that The Track offers double seat go karts big enough for two adults. My 15 year old with special needs loves go karts, but many places won’t let us ride together and he couldn’t safely navigate the track on his own. Is the ride a little spendy? Yes. Totally worth the look on his face as we fly around the track like Mario Kart? Absolutely.

He and his sister did the bumper cars on their own and the attendant was very kind and patient. The staff overall was efficient but patient with those who might need a little extra help.

Visitors to Destin should pick up some of the tourist magazines for a $10 off coupon when you spend $50. Combined with the online only deal on their website we got 55 points for $40, which translates to four go kart rides and two bumper cars.

It is a fun place to take a break from the beach. We will definitely return on our next visit to Destin.

Mini Golf!
Oct 2020 • Friends
I was looking for something to do while visiting Destin and saw this place right on the main highway. I wanted to stop because of all the little animal statues out front and because I love mini golf! It was $12 per adult to play golf and there are 2 different courses. We played both the island and the mountain course. The island course is prettier and it's where you see all the animal statues but the mountain course seemed a little funner with some holes that were 2 or 3 tiered so it was a little more difficult to get a hole in 1. It started raining on us while playing but we just put on our ponchos and kept playing. Noone told us to stop or bothered us at all. There is an arcade here as well along with rides and go karts but with the rain and it being off season a lot of the activities were closed. Fine by me! The mini golf was all I wanted and it was nice to be able to spend as much time on each hole as I wanted without being rushed. If you want everything open then go during peak season but I had a blast exactly how it was.....

Fun Time Was Had by All!
Jun 2021 • Family
On a cloudy day on the Gulf Coast we opted to forgo beach activities and headed to The Track in Destin with 8 of our grandchildren (aged 3 to 17). It is a little confusing on buying points on a card, and then using the card for each individual attraction. It initially seemed expensive, until we realized that our party of 12 were well entertained for 3-4 hours. The Track offers two Go Kart tracks, Bumper Boats, Arcade Games, Mini Golf, and numerous rides for small children. Unfortunately only a few of the rides for smaller children were available, but all of the adults & older children thoroughly enjoyed the Go Karts, Bumper Boats, and Mini Golf! A fun time was had by all!

Experience would be far better if there was enough staff (this is true in many places).
Aug 2021
We went when The Track opened at 11:00 Sunday morning. We were in line ready to buy tickets, but only one of the three booths opened and there were huge throngs of people. Luckily, we asked if the go carts were running, and the larger two go cart tracks were not open, and they couldn't tell when they would be. There were also other rides closed for the time being, so we couldn't figure out just how many dollars worth of tickets we needed. There are two sides of the ride area separated by the mini golf course. This was a great selection of rides and appeared to be clean. Where it fell down was the lack of people working there to open rides and sell tickets. I understand that is a common problem now, which is why I was lenient in deducting stars.

Great Family Attraction
Aug 2021
Our party of six had a great time! So many things to do in one location and the staff was friendly. For our family of four we purchased the $100 points package and that was enough for all of us to ride go-karts, ride the Hurricane 360 ride and play in the arcade for an hour. Definitely worth a trip if you have children!

Fun go karts & golf & water gun boats
Dec 2019
We had a large group so I bought the heavily discounted $500 package, that made it both affordable and fun. Karts were excellent and golf was good although some of the holes could use a little maintenance. The main con I had was two of the clerks tried to short change us on tickets.

Just okay, but better than other options
Jun 2021 • Family
The track is overall just okay. Mini golf was good. Waited forever for bumper boats - they were only running 6 boats at a time and the attendant was not paying attention to the time and some groups were out there for 10 minutes and others only like 5. Go kart wait was also long for a fairly short time and the cart we got was super slow. The arcade was incredibly hot and not ventilated - it felt like a Covid trap. Definitely don’t expect to go inside the arcade to cool off. I wish there was a better mini golf option in Destin but this is the best of what’s out there.

Family Vacation
Jun 2020 • Family
Due to Covid19 is was a little scary. We purchased the $50 card the first day but it was too many people there with no masks on so we left. Went back the next day earlier and there were fewer people. It was ok. A little overated maybe due to the pandemic. It was hot. The facilities was neat and clean.

Customer service needs major improvement
Jul 2020
The activities are fun for the whole family. However, the lack of customer service puts a downer on it. The Go Kart ride for the family does not have signs showing where to wait for single kart or double kart. We got up to the gate and the teenage boy told my husband we were in the wrong line, then when my 4 year old unknowingly started to walk through the only opening available the employee grabbed my son's shoulder and pushed him back toward the line. I then told the employee we had him and he opened a chain for us to exit, in order to re-enter another line for the double karts.
After that ride my kids were so excited to get on the buses. My daughter rushed up to the gate and anxiously went to open the gate. Her dad caught her and told her she could not do that. After she had been stopped by her father a male employee yelled from about 10 feet away at her. Half the kid rides were not being operated at 7 pm. There were still A LOT of kids present. We had been a couple other times during the day and although the employees weren't nice either time they were not so blatantly rude. The Track has the rides to attract the masses they just need to work on customer service to keep people coming back. The teenagers they employ need to have more patience with the kids that are the reason parents spend so much money there.

Best Go-Cart Track Ever!
Apr 2021
This track starts on the ground and then moves into a building with wooden tracks spiraling upward and then downward to exit on the ground again. It's the fastest and best go-cart track I've used. Cars kept in good condition as well as the track.
