Reviews of Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom (Park)

farid brown

We had a wonderful time at Dorney Park!! I've decided to buy season tickets next year and fast lane passes to enjoy more of the part in a faster time. It is well worth it.

Tateasha Peterson

This theme park was fun and there was plenty to do. My kids wanted to spend a lot, but we overall had a great time.

Joe Zuelch

Park is great for all ages, food is pretty terrible. We went for the full day and had a great time. We did pack our lunch and left the park to sit in our car to eat lunch. This was a smart choice. Good food and opportunity to apply additional sunscreen to the 3 kids (ages 4 to 8, + our 15 year old). For dinner we mistakenly decided to eat at the park which was a mistake. The food was really really bad. We actually didn't even eat half of it. It was very expensive and the people working there were very rude and snotty. Dorney is great for kids and adults, and we will be buying a season pass next year. But I strongly suggest bringing your own food. If you are a season pass holder even better because parking is free so you can completely leave the site and find quality food for better pricing.

Steve Piechocki

My family and I usually travel out here once a year. We love the rides, but we usually are limited on what we can get on because the lines are CRAZY long. They tend to shorten up, but not until much later in the afternoon. Also if you have a group of people, get a few of the seasonal drink containers. You can refill them over and over. It's definitely a good $$$ saver.

Jason Osinski

What a great park! I knew ahead of time it had 'only' six coasters, but all of them were fun and the park just had so much charm. Great kids area and great rides sutible for the whole family. We loved it there and will be back as soon as we can :)

tiny locaqutia

There was a lot of fun and scary rides! I was even able to win 5 free fast pass with trivia, however some staff members were a little rude but I had fun regards.

I haven't been here in over 17 yrs and it's absolutely stunning. Very clean, great attractions. Love Planet Snoopy, my 10 month old had a blast as did my 1 yr old cousin. My 17 yr old tried to get on ALL the rides. Love the changing rooms, food court selections and the restrooms. As someone who has problems walking it was great discovering new parts of the park. The amusement side was awesome, the kids won prizes. We'll definitely be back

You can not spend one day here and do everything. It's so much fun going on the water rides and by the time you are finally ready to do the dry rides more than half the day is done.

Christopher Pancoast

Awesome park, great staff. 2 parks for the proce of one. Lots of rollercoasters for those adrenaline junkies. Snoopy place lots of kiddie rides. Wild water kingdom slides spills and thrills for those hottest days. Multiple bathrooms. Lots of places to sit. Good amount of food items. Security walks around constantly to keep an eye on u for safety.

Kiyanna Aggie

Normally I go during the weekday so it's not as crowded but today was the only time I have ever come and had to wait in extremely long lines. Its approaching the end of summer and it's a Saturday so I'll give it a pass because the rides are still super fun.

Cg Opara

Such a fun place to go. Has so many rides (which I went on all of them in two days) and has great food and is clean. They also have alot of water rides as well highly recommended.

James Yelverton

Brought back incredible memories from when I was a kid. Got to make new ones with my daughter, mom & nieces! That's priceless.

Clifford Brown

Had a great time with friends and family! It has been 15 years since my last trip to Dorney and still had a great time. The food ticket situation was a bit wonky and ultimately lukewarm and bland. Definitely eat before going!

Ivan Garcia

Excellent place for a family fun time. First time buying the season pass for the entire family. It was worth the money the first time we used it. Kids love wild water kingdom and the older kids love the dry rides at Dorney side. We can come in when we want and don't have to rush for any ride. If we don't get on some of the rides, we just come back another day and get on then. Dorney park has done a fantastic job keeping things fresh, new, but still have some old rides I used to ride when I was little. Thank you.

Michael Jones

This place is expensive all around from admission to the food. If you have a large family it is seriously a small fortune to go there for a day. The rides are good but plan spending a lot of money which is my biggest complaint about the place. My favorite part of the park is wild water kingdom as I could spend day in there. I would recommend this place as there are some good rides in the park including at one point was one of the highest rollercoasters in the country (Steel Force).

Ugochukwu Anyanwu

Great experience and alot of activities to do. Also parking is no issue the only negative part is that it can be over packed and the security becomes overwhelmed. I will always visit for games and will recommend the place for anybody that wants to have a fun time with friends and family. Another thing is that the games can be Pricey so bear that in mind.

Dom Tor

We just did the season pass for a last of the summer trips. It covered the rest of 2019 and 2020 seasons. There wasn't any waiting in lines for rides. We will be back maybe in the fall but definitely a few times next season.

T Potato

Great place for the family to go for a day. The park is divided into a water park (Wildwater kingdom) and a dry park ( Dorney Park). They are both great, but most people prefer the water park. The dry part is open till 11pm, but the water park closes at 5pm. There are many smaller rides for the kids to enjoy, and the roller coaster are all. I recommend the ThunderHawk.

Debra Gares

So much fun!! Things to do for all ages!! Lots of kiddie rides! Best roller coasters. Most employees are friendly. Park is very clean. Prices for drinks are high. Allowed to bring 1 sealed bottle of water per person.

Melody de Castro

Went here on a hot Sunday. If possible, I would suggest coming during weekdays to avoid the large crowds. The waterpark has great lines but the lines were long! The wave pool was a packed sea of people. The rides section of the park had very decent lines with the most wait being about 15 minutes. Due to the very hot day, mostly everyone was in the waterpark section.

Gaming Day

I've been to my share of theme parks, this one isn't bad. If you're already in the area, feel free to check it out for the day! But it isn't gonna be worth your time if you're not already nearby. Coasters are fun and enjoyable, you have things for all ages here, including an exclusive kids section. There's a reason i rate 5 stars.

Carrie Theiss

We go here approximately one time per year in the fall .. always a fun time for the family.

Odalis Gonzalez

I love going every year because they're so many things to do here that the whole family can enjoy. It's a bit pricey on food and souvenirs but the rides are so much fun.

John Black

Love Dorney Park. Been going since I was a kid. Now taking my children there. Have a great Halloween Horror Nights from Sept 14 through Nov 2.

Curious Angel and Bella Adventures

Dorney is a fun place to go with the family or if your young with your significant other. The prices are reasonable you get two parks for the price of one. Most days its crowded I am a season ticket holder I take my kids weekly they have a blast. Wave pool is nice size they have 2 wave pools and the kids pool section is nice as well. The rides in dorney are fun. The games to play are as well. Some are reasonable and some are just a RIP off. If you have kids go the the basketball game it's two bucks to play and you win a nice NBA team ball. Overall love this park to go and have fun with kids and tired the kids out .

cruise cruise

Water Park and Amusement Park amazing!!! They've added Grand Carnivale with themes, food, and entertainment from countries like France, Germany, and India, and had a street musical parade!!! They had fantastic live band with singers and dancers!!!

Bugzy Billionaire

The food sucks but a cool day for the family. They are "Autism" friendly, with accommodations available for your loved ones. Just visit ride services before scanning to enter the park.

Marija Lozada

Fun place for the whole family! Busy when we came, Saturday in the summertime. Probably better on the weekdays during kids' summer break. Enjoyable for both the parents and the children. Bring sunscreen and your own bottled water, though there are many refillable drink stations around the park. Kids love the Snoopy attraction too. We loved the water slides, lazy river, and the two big pools that generate waves. Feels like you're at the ocean shore. Very nice to sit and sunbathe. Makes for a memorable summer day. Well spent!

Anni Piscitelli-Russo

Loved it, the park was clean and organized. Typical lines but not excessive. The kid areas in the ride park were great. They need more bag checkers to help the lines in the morning to facilitate a smoother entrance. The water park had three great areas for smaller kids that were well controlled and have a single area to enter and exit enough marines it easier to maintain safety.

Cory Stranzl

Every year we get our daughter a season pass for the summer. She loves it. Great water park. Lots of great stuff to do there. Can be pretty packed though and may have some lines for slides and stuff. The other side of the park has the roller-coasters and many other rides. Good variety for people of all ages. Plenty of places to get food and drink. If you're wondering they do not serve alcohol. A little annoying to get in and out of with the traffic at the closest intersection but it's not a big deal. Have the Halloween stuff in the fall and fireworks for the fourth as well.

Joseph Williams

It's a good Park, a little bit on the smaller side. I have never had any problems although some of the crowd can be a little rough. Steel Force is my favorite (so fast, good to see a traditional coaster that is so awesome). I live close so I have season passes, but probably wouldn't drive far to come here as Hershey and Six Flags NJ Great Adventure are bigger with more rides...

Stacey Burt

Always fun! Small.park but they pack in the fun. Food options aren't great. All fried and lots of sugar. But it's fun and easy!

Baluchitherium Neidkowski

Great place, fun. Times we went were not crowded. Since of the staff could be friendlier, nicer but when you are doing this all day I understand

Jay Ryerson

Lines after lines after lines. Now, when going to an amusement park, you expect some lines, some wait times, and some more lines. But no like this. 2 huge long lines just to get in. Then the lines for rides or water slides were hours long. Oh and food and drinks? Good luck. I'm will to assume they were well above there maximum occupancy while I was there. However, no one cared.

Joyce Ehidiamhen

It is an amazing park with fun rides and water slides for the whole family. My kids had so much fun, they didn't want to leave. The wild water kingdom was my favorite, I love love the artificial waves. The food was much and tasted good, although online the ticket said free food and drink every 90mins , the printed ticket allows just one meal.

Heather Flaharty

Yesterday was our first time there. The parking was very confusing. Nobody directing traffic at all. No signs even telling you where to go to park or how to enter the actual park itself after parking. Security is high entering the park. We actually went through a metal detector and had our bags searched. Staff was very friendly. Inside the park, there were no obvious maps. We had no idea where to go or what to do. Just had to walk around and figure it out. The restaurant we went to had a moderately long line, but a very long wait. The inside was very grimy, unkempt and overpriced. I think there weren't enough employees. We visited the restrooms directly after eating and they were not attended and that was very obvious. No toilet paper except on the floor. There were free feminine products though, which was very considerate. The lines for the rides were moderately long, it was later, and we were there to see the parade and shows, which were great. It seemed as if everyone was having a good time. The park obviously cares about that aspect of the overall experience.The park itself was clean and tidy. The staff were all very nice. I just think there weren't enough staff for the crowd. Upon leaving the park close to closing time, we noticed that about 3 out of every 5 parking spaces were full of trash. I mean someone dumped all the trash in the parking space instead of putting it in a bin. It was just very shocking to see that amount of disrespect. There were no parking atrendants, security or traffic control. The way out was a complete mystery. We followed several other confused cars and eventually found our way out. Definitely some room to improve.

G Brown

It's been six years since we last went. Had an awesome time. Definitely need to visit more often.

Bryan Reinhart

It's a nice amusement park, when it's not crowded. The prices for food is outrageous. The staff is very nice, if your nice to them. In other words, dont be ignorant. Parking could have been cheaper. Especially for people who don't go that often. But had a nice day with my wife

Derek Peters

Nice park. Fun and not too crowded. One price for water park and the rides. Water is a little cold, not heated. Have the souvenir cups to refill for $15. for the day. It's great because they have refill stations instead of standing in line while people order food to get a refill. Water lines move slow but the ride side is great.

Gabriela Veliz

I love this amusement park. I go from NYC and it's well worth the trip. The rides are amazing. On one occasion we came and it began to rain so they had to close at 1pm we were given courtesy tickets for use the next time due to the inconvenience which is very thoughtful. I came again during the haunt season on a somewhat cold day which was amazing because there was very short lines. Definitely love this place.

Paul Doyle

I was here for early season, weekday and it wasn't too crowded. Most of the concessions weren't open which led to long lines and waits at lunch time. It was a little cold for the water park. In general, it was a good time.

Ximena Zumaran-Enriquez

It was a very fun experience. We spent here all day, and we got to tried a lot of different water rides. Very easy to get around and also to get food. Usually there is a lot of wait for several, but totally worth it.

Janeida Utreras

We love this place. They have a little bit of everything for the whole family. The prices are so much better than Six Flags, where you have to pay a separate prices for both parks. Here you are paying one price for both parks and you can walk back and forth between the parks. They had food trucks when we visited last time the food was great. We had such a great time that day.

EddyGordo21

The rides were good. They should have told us that in order to get fast pass for the water rider we have to upgrade twice... that was kinda not cool

Carol Flores

Love it! Great park.. especially the pool. My recommendation, if possible go on a weekday. Less people more fun!

Elizabeth -ann C. Hendrickson

I love Dorney Park! The Water park is my favourite side! I've been going there with my family and friends for over 10 years and it never gets old for me. I look forward to our yearly trip.

Tracie Saunders

Restaurants were dirty,but the ride operators were great! Friendly and efficient. I have to use the handicap accessible entrance, and this park and kings island are the best with handling it in the cedar fair chain.

Dianna Alejandro

Truly a wonderful place to spend quality family time. I love that it is very kid friendly as well and the staff are very helpful and polite. Definitely will be getting the season pass now!

Debra Gares

So much fun!! Things to do for all ages!! Lots of kiddie rides! Best roller coasters. Most employees are friendly. Park is very clean. Prices for drinks are high. Allowed to bring 1 sealed bottle of water per person.

Taylor M

Its not the best amusement park but it certainly isn't bad. Lots of walking as in most amusement parks. Food is decent. I would most definitely reccomend getting a season cup, especially if you have the pass. It gets really hot in the summer so if you go to a good stand and ask for a cup of ice they will most likely give you one. Haunt has to be my favorite time of year. The actors are amazing and the spook vibes are great! Decent place if you want to take a day to have fun. Warning: it gets boring if you go every single day (in my own opinion) and Dorney is much better when shared with friends! Planet Snoopy is really cute and good to bring younger children to. The gift shops are decently priced.

David Minnick Jr.

What a fun day. We went on a day that it was raining in the morning but cleared up around noon. There where literally no lines on any of the rides all day. We got to ride each of the coasters and a few of the other attractions multiple times. The water park was also quiet so we got to enjoy several of those attractions also. The park was beautiful and clean. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. I purchased an item at a gift shop and forgot it on the counter, as I was walking around I noticed that I didn't have it and went back to the store. To my surprise the clerk instantly recognized me and motioned me to come to the register where he had my bagged item waiting for me under the counter. We where there for a company event and the food was catered by the park. It was buffet style, and it was very delicious. I can't thank the staff at Dorney enough, it was a refreshing experience in customer service to say the least. I will definitely be going back, and I highly recommend this park and will tell my friends and family the same.

Erick Pizano

The rides here are awesome. Steel force is one of the best known roller coasters! The water park is also great. The wave pool is good for all ages. The lines are usually long but it is worth it. A great park to visit with family and friends.

Kadejah Scully

Today was filled with fun and adventure. The park pushes you to get over your fear of rides just by seeing how much fun others are having on it. There is a ride for everybody of all age group.

Khushi Patel

So much fun! Plenty of coasters, thrillers, and water rides for people of all ages. The staff is also really nice :)

S Harris

We purchased the package that included the all-day dining and fast lane plus. It took us about an hour or more to get our day started because they don't provide your bracelets when you show your purchased ticket. You have to go to the gift shop and get in another line to wait for that pass. Then, you have to go to a food place and wait in another line to get your dining pass. Talk about inefficient! It was a complete hassle. Wildwater Kingdom needs an upgrade, especially the lazy river. There were dead bugs everywhere and when I asked one of the children who worked there (because only children seem to be employed there) about cleaning the dead bugs, he shrugged as if it wasn't his concern. I enjoyed the Dorney Park side. The fast lane plus and all- day dining were worth the price.

Kids New Channel

If u get a season pass it's so worth it...my kids have fun i have fun i can also just relax by the water while they play..get the food plan its so cool u can try everything every 4 hrs..i love this place way better than 6 flags i get a pass every year

Josef & Cindy Martin

Awesome Planet Snoopy for kids! The trick or treat was a lot of fun as well!

Luchania Mccullough

So I went here on a Friday, around 5pm expecting to get fast passes, but I didn't have to. There were no lines at all. I rode all the coasters and got on all the water rides.

Daniel Salcedo

Great place for family and friends, kids had lots of fun as always, parking and entrance well organized. My only comments is that 20 dollars for parking plus another 20 dollars for the locker area is a little bit too much, specially with the lockers as they are tiny and nothing is refundable as they are "digital". Thank you

LeoTube

The park has so many crazy rides, & the water park is amazing! I had tons of fun specially if you go with your friends or family members

Vale Salazar

The energy of the beautiful multi cultural Carnivale dancers, singers, performers are very talented and their interactions with the crowd keeps the party going on for hours. Very enjoyable. The staff are very attentive and accommodating. The place is enjoyable on every level, except for the women's restroom that I find shameful when women leave utilized sanitaries left exposed in the bagged bins designed to discard upon departure from stall. There will be crowds, so be aware you will be on lines and line cutting happens, just deal with it as graciously as possible. We go quite a bit

Claudette Egry

Lived in back of Dorney Park growing up and had a revisit after 30 some year's. It was more awesome than ever! The Talon and the Hydra were my favorite rides. Ended with day with a nostalgic ride on the Wild Mouse. So great to see all the amazing changes that had taken place over so many years. Perfect weather for it and no waiting in lines made it so worth while.

Great family park. Something g for everyone. Clean. Employees actually enjoy their job. Fun fun fun

Cathy Rosing

Second time we went this season and great time had by all once again. This time of year they have their haunted attractions. We did not partake of the adult haunted attractions but what they had for the children was really great and our crew eight and under had a wonderful time everyone is completely exhausted and we will be back again in the spring. Thank you Dorney and all your employees for another great season.

Kamilla Avezova

I came here with my family and we had a great time on the rides. There is a variety of rides from high and scary for people who want that adrenaline running, there are less scary rides and rides for toddlers/younger kids.

John C

I enjoyed this trip to the parks. Things have changed a bit from when I was there as a child. Although, that's the way things work. The change is necessary to stay up to date and appease the visitors. Concession are a bit pricey for what is given. I believe they could be a tad cheaper. Overall the parks are a great get away for the day.

Josh Platt

This is a great place to spend the day. Lots of rides and fun arcade style games to play all throughout the park. A good place to spend a day with a friend or loved one.

Loki Xero

Really fun place for the family and a great place to work. The only reason it's 4* and not 5* is because its painfully obvious they gouge you for money at any chance they get. It doesnt redact from the exceptional service and good upkeep of the park and just how fun it is in general.

Steve SF

Always a fun time with the kids, and they love going back over and over. Great selection of kid's rides and excellent roller coasters, etc. for the adults. The water park is really good too, for both kids and adults. Everything is clean, well- maintained, and safe. Excellent security, and a full medical clinic on-site. Get a season pass if you're going to go more than two times. You'll save a lot of money with the pass, plus it includes free parking and 10% off food and drink. You also get special offers with the pass plus discounted tickets for guests you bring.

edward pennsy

great place for kids. no wait today for the big rides. monster truck event is awesome. well done dorney park. coming back next year!

World McCrea

I had a great time this go around. It's been a few years since I've been to Dorney. I went on a perfect sunny day to enjoy Wild Water Kingdom for most of the day. That's what I really went for. I got a season pass for the first time. I want to take full advantage of it and go a bunch of times throughout the year for some of the events. Just somethin to do here and there to get out the house.

Craig Pennington

It's cool. Just like a King's Dominion, but smaller. Good roller coasters.

Khristian Brooks

Best destination for family/friend fun. There are rides that suit all ages. The youngest person in my group was 5 years old and the oldest 65. There was something for everyone. Prices for the food are a bit pricey. Pro Tip: check the weather before going. They do close rides based on the weather. So when it was raining, for our safety none of the rollercoasters or water rides was in operation. This was in effect for about 45min as we waited for the thunderstorms to pass. The crowds for shelter during storms are a bit hectic, so you'll want to be ahead of the game.

arrielle cropper

Had a great time with the family. Would have been all 5 stars but the website said the park closed at 11 and it closed at 7.

charlotte safrit

We love this place. My boys are both under 5 and their is so much to do for them. We try to go every chance we get!

Adria Angstadt

We were at Dorney for a company picnic. They did a fantastic job of keeping drinks and food flowing all day. I felt like there were more drinking stands available which was perfect, since it was a warm day. The ride lines moved quickly and all ride operators were friendly and courteous. My family had a great day! We were disappointed that the Zephyr wasn't running.

Latitcia Simmons

Was really fun. And the employees there were awesome. I lost something in there and they were actually nice enough to look for it for me. (Unlike another place I lost my glasses. And didn't want to help.)

Jessica Smith

Love the rides. Took no time at all waiting for the roller coasters. Most of the times either waited 1 train or got right on a train as I reached the loading area. Took longer to wait in line for the other rides like Tilt-a-Whirl & Scrambler.

Felix Wagner

This was my first visit ever. Both parks can be accessed easily via the main entrance, which is great. Locker rental price was a bit ridiculous at $20. For $50 via their midweek special combo, I got free parking and unlimited drinks without a souvenir cup. There were plenty of rides on both sides to keep the kids happy and the lines were short since it was a weekday.

Kadence Johnson

The best place yet. Love it and definitely kid friendly!! They have snoopy land for the younger and shorter kids.

Heather Disimile

So much to do. So much fun. Great place to bring kids and have a family day.

David Minnick Jr.

Greg Upshaw

Great Amusement Park. Really good coasters. Snoopyland is great for the kids. They have Philly favorites like Chickie's and Pete's and Rita's Water Ice. My only gripe is the the lines are ridiculously long and 60 bucks for the "Fast pass" is outrageous

Shane Corrigan

The day was going very well until about 1:00. I arrived at 11:00 just to inform you. But as I was saying, the day was going great and then we went to Wildwater Kingdom. There was maybe a slight drizzle of rain and they shut down the entire water park. And I also got scammed when I first purchased the tickets. I bought the tickets on Dorney Park’s website for $79.99. You may wander why it was so highly priced? Well it was because it was a “VIP Pass.” There is no such thing and I was unfortunately scammed for my money. I forgot the most important part and that was the fact that the workers kicked me off about five rides throughout the day because of a little cut on my elbow. Dorney Park is a disgrace and you should never go in your entire lifetime.

Sabrina Clark

This was our first visit to the amusement park and it will be the last. Thought that we would take our daughter here for a fun filled day for her birthday but it wasn't that. This place isn't for families. There was mainly teenagers and young adults without children. A lot of the people were rude and disrespectful and using lots of profanity. The rules of the park and not enforced such as the dress code and no smoking. The food was very high priced. We bought 3 ice creams and it costed $24! That was ridiculous. We didn't buy any other food because it was too expensive. Overall, it wasn't worth the money. The only thing good about it was the fact that it isn't a far drive. If you're looking for family fun go somewhere else.

Yumalai V

Great for family. The rides are pretty cool good for little kids and teenagers.

Rob Goody

First time ever being here. It was my wife, my 16 month old son, myself and a few other friends. We went for one of the haunted Halloween nights. Had a Blast! And a huge shout out to the Dorney Park Cast! I bought my son a No-Boo necklace so they wouldnt scare a 16 month old. And the characters did not disappoint. They would scare people around us and as soon as they saw him they would wave and become "nice" scary characters which made him smile and laugh. I was nervous at first but they made it totally worth it then as soon as we passed a specific character they would go right back into the act of scaring others. It really made the night awesome!!

Sumaya Al-Hajebi

We've been coming here for a few years because my little one had a Pre-K pass (free admission), we love spending a hot summer day at the water park, and then Snoopy world as the water park transitions out for the summer.

Queen A

The entrance price includes the water rides and regular rides. I had a blast with my son and nephew. They're both 24 years old and they enjoyed themselves

Luis Figueroa

Definitely check out the carnival. It's one big party. Plenty of activities for children. Only negative is that when I think of the carnival I think of Brazil and they don't have it.

Ethan

Good park with some fun rides. Not the best amusement park I've been to, but not the worst either. The lines were relatively short and food was okay, although expensive. Fun visit.

Great amusement park. Never insanely crowded like Six Flags, ride lines are usually pretty short. They have a lot of kids rides in Planet Snoopy area and they had good kids activities for Halloween.

alex mull

We had an amazing time. The park is clean the staff go above and beyond. Lost my car keys from my Nissan but few days later called lost and found and got my key back in two days. Will definitely come back and recommend this park to everyone.

Tony Medina

Been coming here every year since I was born and it never fails ,me and my family always have a good time.

BEWARE OF THEIR SCAM...... Purchased 2 Dorney Park tickets for afternoon of August 7, 2019. Entered the park at approximately 1:20 p.m. Dorney Park had already stopped all water rides before my grand daughter and I entered the park, yet NOTHING was said to us nor to any other paying customer entering the park. We walked immediately to Water Kingdom and this is when the staff and Customer Service was telling paid customers there was lightning 10 miles out. The sun was shining and the weather map showed thunderstorms at 4:00. We appreciate the caution taken by Dorney Park BUT we should have been told about the conditions at the entrance and no admission allowed. This is CORPORATE GREED and morally UNETHICAL. I am demanding and expecting a full refund to my credit card. This practice at Dorney Park is Corporate THEFT. I will not support that park ever again and will tell others to be aware of this unethical practice to their customers. Please note, my grand daughter and I spent a total of twenty minutes at the park. Basically walked in and walked out after speaking with their millinnium customer service team who couldn’t do anything about the situation or advise the people at the entrance gate to quit taking people’s money.

Great place for family fun. I recommend purchasing the unlimited refill cup from the gift shop for 15$ ..allows you to refill it for free at any drink station around the park. Great if you plan on being in the park all day, beverages are expensive inside the amusement park

Theresa Monroe

Terrible staff.poorly ran.ritas workers were extremely rude.prices way too high.overcrowded.people were fighting in the parking lot.i spent over 1000 dollars took my family for the first and last time.worst time of my life.i had to pay 35.00 for a locker.people were smoking in the park.the worst vacation I have ever been on.people please don't waste your money save it and go somewhere else.and I drove 3hrs to come to the park.definitely a waste of time and Money

Beautiful Bori

Amazing best time ever especially when it's not too crowded its calm no hostile people getting anxious to get on rides. Kids had a blast. Lazy river was a best family ride.

Mary Merrifield

Dorney Park is a great family park. Combination of water park and amusement park for one price makes it very family affordable. I took my grandchildren ranging in ages of 5-16 and everyone had a great time.

Ashley Shugar

Our families first trip here. First thought was that it seemed a little dated but after spending more and more time there I found it to be a very charming park with a nice amount of shady lanes and benches and not overly crowded.

Kelsey Doerfer

This is my local amusement park so, yes, I have a real soft spot for it. Some of the rides and features do show their age, but the employees are great! You will have fun at this park. For 29 years, I've gone every year.

Eve Hausleben

I would go here when I was small. My first wooden roller coaster ride! Now the same rides I rode are still there with a mix of new and exciting ones. Food a little expensive. Halloween is great!! Water park small not one of my favorites.

Ron Carloni

Great place to go for a day out splashing in the water. Make sure you get a fastlane pass. The cost is an extra 60 per person, but its worth not waiting in those long lines. You will literally go on a ride 4-5 times and pass by the same 100 people in line. So worth every penny.

Ashley Martinez

Such a fun place to go with family and friends! Really great value park where everything is in one location instead of having to pay two different admissions for two different locations. My family and I have been coming here for years and I always suggest coming during a weekday so lunes for rides are short.

Laila

My family and I loved it! We were greeted by two amazing people, Samuel and Dan. They were glad to talk with us and accompanied us until we entered the park. The rides were thrilling and the service was great. Definitely planning another visit!

kalvin john

A fun amusement park. Has fun rides like any amusement park. I would consider this place average.

colesprouse ishot

I loved working here! It was an amazing experience, everyone was really nice and the water rides/slides are amazing as well as the wave pool.

John Saldarriaga

My wife, son and I came on the Saturday of Memorial day weekend. Prices were really affordable for what you get. We live about 1.5 hours away and the security line and ticket counter were fast. Parking was good. The day at the park was fun and the food was just okay, expensive for what you get. The biggest complaint we have is that the workers on rides were not maximizing the space on the rides. Time and time again, we saw workers send cars on rides empty or with not a lot of people, while the line was really long and could have accommodated more people on the ride to keep the line moving. I guess we are used to Disney world and Hershey park where they maximize ride space to keep the line moving. All in all, we had a fun day and we ended up upgrading our tickets to season passes as we will be returning. All of the workers were very nice.

Mark Young

Big enough to temporarily get lost, small enough to enjoy with family. This is a family place that has a water fun world so be prepared for bathing suits of various styles and sizes. The family had a lot of fun!

Jhony Nelson

The park itself is very well designed. The landscaping is beautiful. The rides are amazing and quite fun. A great time overall. The meal plan on the other hand is lacking. Subways doesn't include a drink on the plan. A real bummer. $4.25 for a bottle of Dasani is insane. So carry your own food or plan to spend conveniently inflated prices.

Leysel Bustamante

You can definitely do the whole park in one day. Two water parks for the price of one. I recommend buying the week day bundle. It includes admission, refill drink station all day and parking.

Zachary Thomas

Dorney park is a medium-sized theme park offering a variety of thrilling attractions. Most rides seem typically well-maintained and the staff is always friendly. Not too expensive, and if you were to plan on going more than 2 times during the season its would be worth it to spend the money on a season pass. 3/5

Debbie Fiedler

I had an amazing time here. They have awesome rollercoasters and a bunch of other cool rides. The lines were very short. They really have the biggest variety of rides with shortest wait times of any of the places. Also of course they have the water park and camp snoopy. We went this time for a company picnic and I really like their picnic areas. This is my favorite park for rides. They could have more food and snacks. Like more unique things but overall good. I had a great time.

Radamesl Lopez

I took my granddaughter for her birthday and she had a great time and so did I. The water in the water rides were clean and the right temperature (the day was kind of cool) . The park was clean and the employees very nice and helpful with the exception of the workers in the Arcade. I will recommend this place.

Tom M.

This park is on the smaller side. There are 7 roller coasters. If the price was smaller, the rating would be better. They charge just as much as a bigger park (like Hershey), but on a summer day, there is a lot less to see and do. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Mike R

Kids enjoyed it. The only reason I did not rate higher is because at the wave pool some fowl mouthed 12 year old decided she was going to use very inappropriate language in the wave pool threatening another girl her age and instead of the life guard telling her about herself they stood there and watched the harrassment take place and proceeded to laugh!

Roger Duhaime

Great place. We came from NH. on our way back home from vaca. Dorney does a few thing to make the park safer than were used to seeing. The only complaint I have is (coming from a smoker) that some smoking areas are near eating areas. But in all a good small park to spend a day or two.

Jess Tharp

A very nice amusement park. We had a blast! We did not go to the water park but it looked like fun. The rides were fun and the park is a decent size. Prices are reasonable as well.

Sandy Masiak

Love that it still has some of the old rides new parks have done away with. Great mix of the old and the new. Something for everyone. Food is some of the best we've had in a park.

Sanhippo

Live in the area and have been to Dorney park a total of three times so far. Which is more then i usually go to amusement parks but that is mostly due to moving to the area and obtaining a season pass. The Water park is laid out in a very inconvenient way and can be confusing if you haven't been there before. The Water rides have nothing going for them. They have the same mechanism to get you wet every time just dump water from above. There is nothing unique or interesting about the rides them self. No jets that shoot up or spray from the side. The "Lazy River" we actually managed to get stuck in a current that kept us held to the side no longer moving so we had to get out of the tube and walk to continue on down the river with. The lazy river uses the same tactics as the other water rides drop water from above. There are also parts of the lazy river where its so shallow that you can easily touch the floor while in the tube, managed to stub my toe that way. The Current festival the Grand carnival has a very nice parade and i believe some good food choices however that is a belief because we bought the pass to try six foods out. They don't tell you when you buy it but they need to be all in the same day (It is located on the pass that this is the case though). Well we bought our pass 4 hours before the park closed and by 8 PM were not able to get any of the foods we wanted to try as they were all sold out. Out of the Six meals we were allowed to get we were only able to get two that we wanted with both of those being good. Pork Ribs and Taco. Every other stand was out of the choice we wanted and the secondary choice we threw out as we didn't enjoy them.

Tahmid Chowdhury

Best thing about this park is dry park and water park are combined. And one ticket for both park . Dry park have many rides but very few good ones. Water park is good though. Parking is another $20 . Food price is overpriced inside the park. Safety protocol was good.

luis rivera

Took the family out for some water rides and they had a blast. Been coming for years but price to get higher and higher. Nice environment to be with family.

Jay B

Bathrooms were disgusting. I didn't expect spotless but I do expect it to be clean. Other than that great place for the family. Lots of rides smaller children can ride with parents. It was awesome loved the food options

El Shaborn Jallah 7

Very nice park lot of water rides very exciting stress relieving great for kids and adults as well Foods a little overpriced but at the end of the day you only live once so you're worth it you're there to have a good time money shouldn't matter have fun.

Kericiann Thompson

Its nonstop fun and excitement at the water park. The rides are amazing, its always fulfill day whenever I go. The kids always have a wonderful time here.

Llorraine Williams

We have season passes we get every year but I would have to say the grand carnival was the best this year. Loved the different countries they had for the kids to do activities. I also like that they had the Parade through the park with the dancers and the floats that was so cool. Hope they bring it back next year.

Cool Cumbers

A great fun Amusement Park. I’ve personally never been to Wildwater Kingdom, but Dorney Park in general is a great park. I love their roller coasters, my favorite being Steel Force, but I also recommend Thunderhawk and Talon as well. However, compared to other parks such as Six Flags Great Adventure, Dorney Park doesn’t have as many large, intense, thrill rides, and this definitely turns off many thrill-seekers looking for many intense rides in one area.

John Bartczak

This is a great amusement park! And water park too. Very reasonably-priced. Workers are very friendly. The grounds are clean and the landscaping is beautiful. Great rides! New and classic, a great mix. I personally try to not go on a Saturday because that is the most crowded of days. Been going here for years and years. Close to major highways. Only negative would be when school season is over and they start bussing in kids from many different places, a lot seem to be rude and less respectful of others trying to have a fun time too. But you get that everywhere in the world, I guess.

Diane Sullivan

Dorney Park and Wild Water Kingdom is an incredible place to go. It's filled with fun for any age and a place you can visit for a few hours or from opening to closing! There are coaster, snoopy and the gang, water rides and delicious food choices! There is an eat all day bracelet which I highly recommend! It even includes a dessert! We chose Cinnabon! There are seasonal or day of visit refillable cups. So much fun.

Vidar Child

Fair price, and they offer good group discounts. Combined water park and amusement park. They have the typical amusement park food and drink options. The Tidal Wave Cafe has a corner where adults can get frozen margaritas and beer. Day and season refillable cups are also available, and I recommend them. Usually less crowded than Great Adventure.

Robert Harper

Great little park to visit with family. Reasonably priced . Guest services when u need help is fantastic and doesn't make you wait even on a busy packed Sunday! Food was top notch. Entertainment second to none.. Worth every penny we spent today

Tripp Fenderson

We picked the right day to come!! Wait times were 10-15 minutes max on every ride. Most of the time we walked right up to the gate and hopped on. Staff was friendly and courteous. Restrooms and all dining areas were clean. Really enjoyed reading about the history of the park before we arrived and Ron’s fantastic tour on the Zephyr was a great experience.

Paul Shenenberger

Great park, decent haunted houses and a worthwhile visit. Reasonable prices and not as over priced as Great Advenutre

April Moore

Went for a school field trip, the park told our school administrators the water park was open and it wasn't. All the cement and metal from the rides made a huge heat trap. You are allowed to bring one bottle of water for each person, my advice is to bring a liter bottle. We only lasted a few hours because my youngest couldn't go on the two water rides and the third one was closed for safety adjustments, but the rides we went on were really fun. The ride operators were really enthusiastic, and they did an excellent job on the safety checks. They need to get paid more, they are making the park worthwhile.

Brian Hunte

Great place to let the family enjoy themselves. Try to get discount tickets, it helps. The lines after 4 pm start getting longer, that's when more people come out as the heat of the day is going away. This is also when it seems the lines don't really move. I am not sure why, but every where I went and looked after 4 pm people were complaining about the line not moving or just getting out of the line. Another thing, it's best to bring your own food. Most of the food served is fried like the chicken strips, burger, pizza, or chicken burger for about $16. Drinks are separate and the souvenir cups are the only ones that have lids in the whole park. There are other things to eat like a gyro cart, but you will have to find the one within the park. If you have patiences you will enjoy yourself.

Dave Geiger

Park was good fun and maintained well. I would give that a 4 out of 5. The food service is a totally different story. I give that a negative number which is why the overall score is a 2. I have season passes and I visit the park frequently. The service is consistent. ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE (is an actually understatement.) The lack of staffing is one of the biggest most obvious factors. The staffing also doesn't have any management staff to rally behind or to train.The workers are in the twilight zone. They have no idea what the word service or move quickly means! Long lines, slow, undercooked, cold food. Overwhelmed, understaffed zombie staffing needs help big time. I feel sorry for them.

Gabe Hall

I had the opportunity to visit Dorney Park twice this summer. While this is one of the least invested in parks in the Cedar Fair chain, it is still a fantastic place to visit. Despite its small size there is something for absolutely everyone to enjoy. One thing that I also found nice was the souvenir bottles. Not only are they a great value if you plan to visit the park more than once, but you can use them at other Cedar Fair parks as well. I was able to use my all day drink cup (that includes $1.00 refills for the rest of the year) at Cedar Point. Rides aren’t the most efficient but they are still worth a wait. If you live in the Central or Eastern PA regions, give this place a try. You’ll have a great time... and be sure to visit Wildwater Kingdom as well!

Elaine Sanders

Awesome place very clean and friendly workers who helped us with any info we needed. Definitely worth the trip. But if you go get the fast lane pass you'll get ahead of the lines instead of waiting a hour to ride one ride it's well worth it.

Soy Rab

Still one of the nicest places to take the family. I go here with large groups of students and the variety in attractions and confections is still just so vast and fun.

TA GS

Great amusement park with amazing thrill rides! You can get lost in the excitement of options there are, including roller coasters (some overturning ones) and some rides that you get wet. Map is confusing and not too helpful to find the rides you are looking for, but staff was really helpful and nice!

Cody Kalinas

Most workers don't speak English, which is only a problem because I had questions and couldnt find anyone capable of answering. They are still nice though. DO NOT go on the weekend, you will wait hours to get on a ride. The rides are great here but I was there for 10 hours and only got in 5 the entire day, that's including the water park. Overall, very fun just very busy during weekends

tanya Davis

This was the first time going. I must say the staff that are walking around are quite prejudice. Meaning, we noticed that when we asked a question to most of the staff they looked at us and literally ignored us. It's like we weren't even talking to them. They looked us directly in the face. We said nothing. Yet, we were faced with it repeatedly. This has to be known. People please be aware of this fact.

Steve

It's a good little regional park, we had a very good time. That time was definitely helped by the fact we were there for the Grand Carnivale Festival. Not sure I'd go back to just ride the rides there though, Talon is a great hanging coaster. The Steel Force is way better and smoother than it's sister coaster in Cedar Point but after that there just isn't much there for the thrill seeker.

Yelena Aulov

It's a fun place to go. Has both water rises and rollercoasters. I strongly suggest getting the fast pass. Best decision we made. I'm giving it 3 stars as we prepaid for parking and noone asked us about it nor stopped us when we were getting into the parking lot. Wasted my money paying online for it and not even needed. When getting food..... the line was insane. Only one person taking orders. Took forever to get the food after. And when I looked inside to see what's taking so long saw 2 people on their cellphones and 2 more just standing there talking about their weekend plans. We went with adults only for small get away. Had a nice time time but between parking and food service were slightly disappointed.

cynthia vargas

Dorney park has always been my favorite theme park. I love the hydra and the talon. The fact you get to experience both water and dry has always been my favorite thing about this park. Its has a nice snoopy place for kids. If you go on week days it's better. The line isn't that bad compare too weekends.

montrell matthews

Great place and always a great time either with the family or just as a couple. Food is good atmosphere is fun and employees actually work and take pride. I always recommend!

Sheila Rosario

Fun fun fun. Reasonable prices and good food. The entertainment is a perk

Mama Cass

Fun! Fun! Fun! Both sides of Dorney Park is Pure no holds barred unadulterated fun! Rented a cabana while hanging out at the wave pool it was off the freaking hook how you get to be served and treated like a VIP. I can’t wait to go back. You just Gotta spend the night at a nearby hotel just to do both sides of the Park! It is worth every penny and your kids just can’t stop smiling. Fun for the whole fam. I Would definitely recommend Dorney Park & Wild Water Kingdom to everyone!!!!!!

Charlene Irizarry

So much fun. Was there all day and the best part, my daughter had an amazing time. Can't wait to go again!

Meredith Cruz

I really liked this amusement park. I went here with my friends and it was really enjoyable. There are a variety of rides from super fast to nice and mellow. The park is not huge compared to Six Flags but it has its own charm. And the food was overpriced but what do you expect at an amusement park. Regardless, it's a great place to visit in the summer with family and friends.

Shevona Taylor

Had a blast with my kids... And we met Ben really cool guy

Guadalupe Jimenez

I love this place my family and go every years lot of fun great rides and the food is so good...

Jae Truckski

The waterpark was great, but the other side left much to be desired. There was hardly any rides accommodating larger patrons. The games were all too expensive, and the food? If you come here be prepared to spend a lot of $.

pamela vilaprino

My family and I love it. It has a bit of everything. I especially love Snoopy Camp for my kids. The water park is fantastic. Everything is well kept and they always have some sort of promotion or special event that makes going feel a perfect family trip. Do yourself a favor and check out the prices online vs at the park. Pre ordering always saves you money.

Destinee H

Great waterpark. Some good rides in the actual park but wish there were more (for adults). Food options are pretty good too.

Jennifer D'Esposito

Amazing time! It was hard to find rides to give be a huge adrenaline rush. I did find one. Wish I could recall the name of it. I know it was yellow and only had two directions; left & right & it starts really fast! It was the best ride ever! The haunted parts were great! Get the No Scare pass if you're not good with getting scared!!!

Raymond Chen

It's just like any amusement park. There are always a line for days. It is what it is. Unless you get the express pass then you might save a lot of time. Food and drinks are always a rip off in these places but hey, that's how they have to make their money. Went on all the rides in wild water kingdom and 3 rides at dorney park. I come every year because the company I work for gives us free tickets every year so it's a yearly ritual for the family. Always have a hot wait and cooling water to wash it away. Usually try to avoid Friday, Saturday and Sundays due too the amount of people off on those days. I always try... to go on Mondays through Thursdays. Have fun and be safe guys!!

Alyssa L

It was so fun! Rides and attractions for all ages and interests. I haven't been to Wildwater Kingdom, but Dorney Park was absolutely wonderful! Many roller coasters that are very fun and exciting. Lots of good food stops, great to go with a group. Not too long of a wait for anything, at least for the time that I was there.

Sherry Taylor-Reynolds

Large enough for the line to not be too long, without a pass to skip the line, but small enough that you can split up and evenentually find each other. Fun for every age! The amusement park is separate from the water park. Both are worth the entrance fees for a day pass including riding or waving everything.

Davis Mincey

My guys and I had a blast we enjoyed every moment of the 5 hours we spent there! It was a beautiful day 7.12.19! Oh and our tickets were cheaper because we got the entry after 4 o'clock tickets, we got everything online, we got souvenir cups which allowed us to re-fill our cups as much as we wanted and we also paid are parking online it made everything easy. The perk of getting the after 4 tickes, most people are leaving, shorter lines, less people, better parking spaces!

Erick Pizano

The rides here are awesome. Steel force is one of the best known roller coasters! The water park is also great. The wave pool is good for all ages. The lines are usually long but it is worth it. A great park to visit with family and friends.

Ameer Griffin

Arrived at Dorney Park around 10 a.m. everything was going well up until I tried to get on a ride with a small stuffed animal that I won at doing this particular stuffed animal with small enough to fit into a pocket the young attended at one of your exhibit refused to let me on the ride because I had the stuff animal I test on to my belt loop this incident spoil the whole experience I was sharing with my family at Dorney Park at this time would I recommend only part to anyone else the answer would be no I also stopped to get something to eat at Chickie's and Pete's the chicken fingers were good but the fries were dry and hard thank you for allowing me to share my experience

brandy schafer

All the rides are definitely fun ALTHOUGH absolutely AVOID going to the bathroom they're very very disgusting . If you can eat before thats smart too because the food is very expensive. And when I was ready to go on another ride with my friend they said it was closed dud to rain but there was not a raincloud in site it was still very sunny. One last thing parents please make sure you measure your kids before you get on the ride because its very embarrassing for your child to think they're getting on a ride until that attendant comes around and say you're not tall enough.
