Hersey PA, is it worth it?!
Question:
Hersey PA, is it worth it?
My family and I want to go to Hersey Pennsilvana for a weekend, but so far the website makes it hard for prices and such. Can anyone tell me what the average cost would be to go or if it's even worth going at all?
Answers:
If you are looking at Hershey Park, it is indeed very expensive, on par with Disney. Personally I didn't find it very worthwhile, but then I am not a fan of thrill rides. If you like roller coasters, the park isn't bad. It is large and has quite a few rides, plus some animal shows and things like that. You are also likely to see a lot of Amish families in the park - if you are interested in Amish culture, you should easily be able to find a place in the area to visit to learn about them.
As for places to stay, I can't tell you much about hotels, but my family just went camping. There are campgrounds nearby which are fairly cheap to stay at and which will put you in fairly easy distance of tourist attractions. I recommend this very highly as a money saver and a fun activity.
