Hersheypark 12+

We love coming to Hershey Park because we feel you get a little of 3 parks: water park, amusement park and Zoo America. There’s also Chocolate World just out side the park too. I just wish the price was not so high. It was $85 for a day ticket but we were lucky enough to get discounted ones through our school. I also wish more parks, including Hershey, would consider a spectator hand stamp (or something like that) for those who can’t ride any of the rides (whether it be age (grandparents) or health reasons) so they could just enjoy watching family members enjoy the park or just being with them. I know many elderly people who would be more than happy to just watch their younger grandchildren who can’t ride while older ones or parents are riding or chaperone. It’s a shame they have to pay $50 and may not ride anything in park. I understand there is entertainment but $50 is still a lot to just enter the park to sit and walk around.

This application is setup very user friendly. A must for a park visit if U are still learning what it has to offer. This application tells U everything, park hours, show times, rides (which U can filter by type or size restrictions). Application can even be used to save your parking spot. Tells U all wait times of rides and best of all directs U on how to get to everything with GPS. Description of all rides and even video descriptions. Worked very well with no crashes!! I will be using on every visit.
Wish there was a way to create a list of rides you personally want to go on and check off as U go or have application direct you in the quickest walk to them or sort by ride current wait times.
Currently U can filter by type and rider size and it does auto sort by closest to farthest which is useful.

All in all, this is a good app. It’s intuitive, simple, easy to find your tickets, fast passes, etc. The map is very good. It has filters to allow you to view just what you’re looking for. And when you’re in the park it will give you directions from where you are to a different attraction.

The app allows you to create multiple favorites lists. I have two lists, rides and food. This is where the app breaks down. When you’re planning, there is no way to filter the map to show your favorites list. So I know the 15 rides I want to hit up in one day, but I can’t see where they are relative to each other.

The other improvement I would suggest for the app is to give you a map for each entry (ride, food, etc). For example, I wanted to look up a particular food stand that someone recommended. I found it on the list, but couldn’t tell where it was on the map. Even after I bookmarked it to my favorites list, I had no idea where in the park it was.
