First of all if you are bringing children here - beware!! A giant room full of chocolate, a full food court full of junk food and a bakery! But wow is it awesome. Our favorite part of it is the great chocolate adventure tour. Its a people mover that takes you through the process of how they make the chocolate.... More

Driving back from Washington, we felt compelled to check it out for the kids. There is only one free attraction, a carousel ride from the 1970s with singing cows telling you how happy they are to "give" their milk for chocolate. It is a bit dangerous to get on and off - surprised that no-one has sued yet in this... More

Avoid going on a weekend because it is FULL of young children on field trips. The little ride with the singing cows is fun but the shop seems very overpriced. Get your candy at Walmart and pretend you bought it at the Hershey store :) More

The Hershey story is a silly little ride through an animated story of the Hershey factory and the process of making chocolate. It drops you off in a massive store of Hershey products More

Okay, admittedly this is one big commercial for Hershey's. But it has the ability to be educational, varied, and entertaining for the whole family. We went on a cold, rainy day so the place was packed. If you do plan to go, get there early. The place fills up as the afternoon wears on. Making your own chocolate bar was... More

A great way to kill an hour or two for free. The ride is well done and you get a chocolate sample at the end. Have been there more times than I can count and yet I always find something interesting. Kids love it and will ride it over and over again (maybe for the free candy?) More

Enjoyed learning about the work it takes to make a chocolate bar. The ride was very educational as well as entertaining. Then we enjoyed the large souvenier store stocked with all kinds of Hersey candies. The food court was good too. Great chocolate milkshake! More
