Then, come face-to-face with orangutans and test your strength in a tug of war with a Bengal tiger, all in Jungala - the only jungle in the world that plays with you.

Hello, I had a great experience AFTER I was traumatized by a horrible lady. Her name was Lena for context. Not only did she SCREAM in my face but she also couldn’t hold composure and had one of the worst attitudes known to man. I’m appalled and disgusted with how I was treated. She was acting like a caveman because her stupidity was off the charts. She insulted me, by basically calling me an idiot saying there was only 3 tickets….when there…was 4 in front of her. Overall, after made us wait an hour because she went on lunch break, 25 minutes after the park opened, the stem of the issue was because she put the same name on 2 of the tickets. After we tried to nicely make her aware of her mistake, that’s when she went haywire. She never even apologized and that’s what makes me sick the most.

What a disaster. We spent most of our trip trying to locate food and water for our children. Our family had an extremely disappointing visit. We have a 2 year-old and 6 year-old. We did not bring snacks to the park per policy, and to our dismay, found food locations closed or dramatically understaffed. There was no food option in Sesame Land, and we waited 2 hours for orders of chicken nuggets at the next closest location, the Smokehouse. No mobile ordering was available anywhere. Snack stands ran out of cups and napkins. Trash was strewn everywhere. Water fountains were broken. Also unclear why children above 3 years old need to purchase full-price adult tickets when they can only access 60% of the park features. Guest services offered us three free passes to return. Declined.

This park lacks good infrastructure. Bad way finding signs. Lack of integrated wait times for the signage or for the app means that there is not a way to maximize for a fun family experience. They haven’t done a good job with park planning so they don’t have enough medium size rides between coaster to pace out the line wait times. They need some work here.
