Rides at Hersheypark |
Are you planning a trip to Hershey, Pennsylvania? If so, I thought I would share with you today the top 3 fun things to see and do in
Hershey Pennsylvania. These activities are all family-friendly and great for couples to do too! The most expensive activity to-do on this list is a visit to Hersheypark.
1. Plan an afternoon trip to
Zoo America, the North American Wildlife Park which is in downtown Hershey. The Zoo is open year-round and costs $10.00 per adult, $8.00 for children ages 3-8 years and kids under 3 are free. The Zoo only has animals that you would find in North America so you won't find lions, tigers and primates there. However, you will find alligators, snakes, various birds, bison, wolves, ducks & swans, prairie dogs, cougars, bob cats, black bears, turtles, tree frogs, deer, river otters, skunks, etc. A very nice smaller-scaled zoo that is very clean and well-kept.
2. Plan an afternoon trip to visit
Hershey's Chocolate World which is in downtown Hershey and open year-round. Admission is free for both children and adults. When you go into Hershey's Chocolate World you will first come upon the various Hershey theme'd stores which is called the Marketplace Shops. You will find an abundance of Hershey candy, Hershey souvenirs, gifts and other treasures in the marketplace and you will find a few fun places to eat at too! You can then get on the FREE chocolate tour ride which is really educational and fun for both kids and adults. During your ride tour you will learn about the history of Hershey's chocolate and the various chocolates that are made in Hershey.
