“The boardwalk is perfect for everyone in the family! Whether it be the lazy river for the little ones, or things like breaker's edge for the thrill seekers it makes everyone come out in a Hersheypark Happy mood!”
Alex Hay
“This is easily the worst park I’ve ever been too, overpriced and underwhelming to say the least. We arrived at opening and stayed until 9pm and were able to go on 4 rides the whole day, The highlight of the day was leaving and knowing I will never have to do that again.”
