Don't miss the traditional ice cream parlor on Main street. |

| TPR Notes |
|
Adventureland is known for having some of the friendliest staff in the industry. But the park also has a very solid lineup of flat rides to support three wooden coasters.
Many of the flat rides have low height restrictions for allowing a kid to ride when accompanied by an adult. The water rides can get you very wet, so be prepared.
Typical theme park fare can be found throughout the park and is reasonably priced. Games of chance are also fairly priced, so the young ones won't destroy your wallet in that area. | |
