Richard RevillaJuly 5, 2017This Park is great for young kids. Not many lines to wait on and the splash park is great for a mod day cool off. $15 preferred parking let's you park right by the entrance.
Michael O.July 26, 2013Can't bring drinks in....HOWEVER...you can bring in an empty water bottle (or three!)...and fill up with ice cold H20 outside every restroom!!! :-)
Jack AtkinsAugust 25, 2012Bring flip flops or water shoes with you, along with your bathing suit. You need them in order to ride the water rides. They have them for sale at $15 a pair. DW's way of getting every last cent!
Laura RubesAugust 29, 2012Wonderful place with a great staff. I'd suggest this place to anyone with children, especially those under 10.They truly do a great job for all ages, and my family and I come every year because of it!- visitPAMay 7, 2015Voted one of the “Top 5 Best Kid’s Parks in the World” by Amusement Today magazine, Dutch Wonderland® in Lancaster, Pa., is the perfect destination for families with young kids.

- Dorothy Hackman, CLP, HTPAMay 27, 2014We purchased Season Pass's for our Granddaughter and Great Grandson's this year and we are having the time of our lives feeling happy!
Chad ZamarronJuly 28, 2015Was a great place to take our 1 year old to ride her first rides on her own or with us (have to be walking to go alone). So many options for her to do.
Christopher PowisSeptember 1, 2016DW has rides for children of all ages. We went midweek after schools were back in session and the kids could ride multiple times without getting back in line.
Jason ValentinoJuly 12, 2017You're admission also comes with a "preview" of the park the night before your day pass, from 5-830p!
This park is such a fun place for kids and at $30/ticket it is worth the price of admission. Start with the train ride around the park to see where the kids want to start.
Kara ButlerOctober 5, 2014Save money and bring your own lunch! The food here is overpriced and really unhealthy. Otherwise we love this place for the whole family!
Michael TubermanAugust 26, 2012loved dutch wonderland, will defiantly go back next year on vacation, stay at the continental inn next door! Sesame Place sucks compared to DW!
Andres C.September 5, 2011Great for kids, but unfair to charge kids based on age when all the attractions are based on hight, park should do their homework and charge a full fare based on height over 36", not age!
Michael ArchambaultApril 1, 2010I went here when I was a kid. Great place. Lots of fun. Go during the Autumn/Halloween season because they dress the park up really well and it's all good fun.- Barbara PavelecSeptember 22, 2015Great place for young children (and big kids too)! Definitely going back!
Hillel GlazerJune 15, 2011Great (free) 'preferred' parking space also a benefit of evening park pass (whether purchased alone or as part of pre-day pass).- Hillel GlazerJune 15, 2011Come a day early, get the last 3hrs of the day FREE w/purchase of a ticket for the following day. Setting sun & NO lines or crowds.
Come see Dress Up & Dance at 1:30 & 3:30! A brand new show for 2011 that your kids will love to sing & dance to!
Gil LJune 21, 2013You can skip the two aircraft simulator rides. They must've been around since the park opened.
- Michael O.July 26, 2013Jiggle the fish/duck food machine handles....4-6 times...and get a free handful of fish food...I deserved it after having to pay $3.00 for a bottle of water...
Loved it. Met up with some friends with boys I didn't know were going to be here and had a blast.- Michael O.August 17, 2011Great tip for parents take kids to the winmill out behind the statue of liberty...they cand ride forever.
Jennifer QuintuaNovember 29, 2010Must visit during the Christmas season for the spectacular light show.
- Michael O.August 18, 2010Duck food vending machines will give food for free..twist handle back and forth..little handfuls. at a time..
Jason EppersonJuly 7, 2010Affordable snack: Side of falafel from the kosher kitchen for $2.33. Tasty too!
