This is a magical place to visit, we did two days here and I do not have one complaint! Let’s start with our Deep Sea Dive that was led by Robert B. who we also met during the shark feeding session.Robert’s energy and passion for his job truly shines when he is talking about the animals or underwater signaling and writing, he truly made the adventure that much better and we hope to get him in the future! The Deep Sea Dive was really neat not only bc you got to see all the fish up close and personal but they also take you over to the shark area and it feels like you are face to face, the Nurse sharks are a thing of beauty when you get to see them close up! Highly recommend you do this add on! The Grand Reef snorkeling was where we spent most of our day, it’s the coolest thing to have all these rays glide by you and your able to touch the top of them ( if you do the deep sea dive you can touch their underside and they are soft!!!!!) The Aviary was an oasis of its own, birds landing on you and flying over head. The sound of waterfalls and mist all around you, it truly feels like a little jungle! The lazy river was nice and long and it was neat how it went through the bird sections and then you go through waterfalls that keep the birds from going through. We didn’t do the Dolphin Experience but after the multiple shows we watched I do think it’s worth the extra money if you are a dolphin lover! Every inch of this park is done up in the jungle oasis theme, no shortcuts were taken! We were amazed by everything. The food was fine, nothing special but definitely not bad as others wrote on their reviews, it’s free so your not getting steak :) Snacks were great for on the go in between areas and stations are everywhere :) We did the 3 park Ultimate pass that included Seaworld(loved) and Bush Gardens in Tampa (did not love, very rude employees) I wish we had time do Aquatica (3rd park) but sadly we didn’t. Everything went smoothly with the pass we received from Discovery Cove, this pass also included our parking for each of the parks. We couldn’t have asked for a more satisfying vacation and we cannot wait to come back and visit Discovery Cove again!!!!

Oh my goodness! What a fabulous way to end family vacation! We went to hall-o-scream! So much to do in so little time! A staff member, Amanda (don't know her last name) was by the VIP area when we entered at 7pm on 10/12. She was EXTREMELY helpful and informative for a family that has never been to SeaWorld let alone Halloween SeaWorld. My daughter loved the roller coasters and I loved loved all the different scare areas. They did get everyone in our party to jump which was fabulous as we are a family of ghosts ghouls and goblins. The opening scene was beautifully put together and gave us chills. The monster show was gorgeous! I spent more tonight on Halloween attire than I did any other day of my trip and honestly completely worth it. All of my family (3 adults 2 teens) enjoyed it and it had something for all of us. We came down from Alaska for vacay and to look at areas to possibly move to and this was a last minute add in. For $45.99 I would go again if I could. Thank you for ending our week off from life with a great show!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Orlando Outlet Marketplace is a great destination for budget-friendly shopping! It has a nice mix of well-known brands like Nike, Levi’s, and Adidas, all offering amazing discounts. The smaller size compared to other outlets makes it much more manageable and less overwhelming. Parking is convenient, and it’s easy to navigate the stores. There are plenty of options for quick bites, too, so you can refuel between shopping sprees. If you’re looking for quality items at great prices without dealing with massive crowds, this is the place to go. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Orlando!

Visiting Universal Studios Florida was one of the most unforgettable experiences I’ve ever had! From the moment you walk through the gates, you can feel the energy, excitement, and attention to detail everywhere. The park is spotless, beautifully maintained, and full of amazing attractions for every age and taste. The rides are absolutely incredible — especially The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, which truly feels like stepping into another world. Every corner is so perfectly designed that you can’t help but be amazed. The Jurassic World VelociCoaster and Revenge of the Mummy are must-try attractions for thrill-seekers — fast, intense, and full of surprises. For something a bit more relaxed, the Minions and Simpsons areas are super fun and full of great photo spots. What really stood out to me was how friendly and professional the staff are. Everyone was smiling, helpful, and clearly happy to be there, which made the whole experience even better. The park also has plenty of food options, from quick snacks to full meals, and everything we tried was delicious. Prices are what you’d expect for a theme park, but the quality makes it worth it. I also loved how organized everything was — the lines move quickly, the mobile app helps a lot to plan your day, and the whole park feels safe and well managed. You can really tell they think of every little detail to make sure visitors have a great time. Universal Studios Florida is more than just a theme park — it’s a world of fun, fantasy, and pure joy. Whether you go with friends, family, or even on your own, you’ll have an amazing time. I can’t wait to go back!

Very clean walk ways and bench areas, well placed signs and cool picture opportunities. We mostly walked around with my toddler because the water looked deep. I definitely will be coming back for the glass bottom boat tours

I had a sort of "drive-thru" visit to Stetson Mansion. With only a few minutes to stop off for a quick look around outside, I walked around to see everything possible and took photos like crazy. The vintage Christmas decor everywhere was gorgeous and made seeing the Mansion at Christmastime a marvelous experience!! I'm looking forward to one day going back when I have time to take the tour. This place was just beautiful!!

What a great visit even on an extremely hot August day. We walked up the lighthouse and the views were gorgeous. Lots of buildings to visit and see how the lightkeepers families lived. We enjoyed the beacon museum too and don't skip the short video about the site, very interesting and I recommend visiting that first!

The tour is great. It takes just over an hour and is packed with interesting facts about the speedway. Seeing the track in person is extremely different from what you picture it being watching on television. The museum is packed with a lot of great items as well and you get to walk though it at the end of the tour. We went on a weekend and I would definitely recommend buying tickets in advance if you have a specific time in mind for taking the tour.

Daytona Beach is an iconic destination that perfectly blends natural beauty, vibrant culture, and thrilling activities. The city’s 23 miles of white-sand beaches are its centerpiece, offering pristine shores and the unique opportunity to drive along the hard-packed sand. Whether you’re soaking up the sun, enjoying water sports, or simply taking a leisurely stroll, the beach provides an unforgettable experience. Beyond the beach, Daytona is rich in attractions. The Daytona International Speedway is a must-visit for racing fans, offering tours and the excitement of NASCAR events. The Boardwalk and Pier are lively hubs with arcades, shops, and local dining options, making them ideal for families and visitors of all ages. For nature enthusiasts, the nearby Ponce Inlet and its historic lighthouse offer breathtaking views and serene walking trails. The city also boasts a thriving cultural scene, with art galleries, live music, and festivals throughout the year. Dining options are diverse, ranging from fresh seafood restaurants to international cuisine. Additionally, the friendly locals and relaxed atmosphere make it easy to feel at home. Daytona Beach strikes a perfect balance between excitement and relaxation, making it an ideal vacation spot for couples, families, and solo travelers alike. Its affordability and wide range of activities ensure there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Highly recommended!

Great family fun outing in the St. Augustine area. The 45-minute tour includes a ferry ride across the inlet and a guided tour of the Fort. The Park Rangers/ tour guides are engaging but also allow you to explore the site. Highly recommend.

St. Augustine Distillery Review This was my third time visiting the St. Augustine Distillery, and it continues to be an enjoyable and worthwhile stop—and best of all, it’s free! The self-guided tour includes four tasting stations. I didn’t grab photos of all of them and can’t recall every name, but I do remember sampling a Mule, an Old Fashioned mix, and what I believe was a Grapefruit Hibiscus blend. All four were delicious. The tour is short, informative, and fun. The staff is friendly, and the overall vibe is welcoming. While the free tasting doesn’t include their gin, I highly recommend trying it at the bar—it’s remarkably smooth. There’s also a full bar on site where you can purchase cocktails, and a restaurant attached to the building that I haven’t tried yet, but maybe next time. If you're in the area, this place is absolutely worth a visit—whether it's your first time or your third.

Nice historical street with plenty of shops and restaurants. Everything walkable and located on the street. I definitely recommend checking it out. It is hard to find parking so I recommend doing the old town trolley tour with multiple drop off and pick up spots. This charming historical street is packed with shops and restaurants, all conveniently located on the same street. It’s a great place to explore on foot. Just be prepared for limited parking options, so consider taking the old town trolley tour for multiple drop-off and pick-up spots. Trust me, it’s a must-see!

Very cool fort with great views. It was an extremely hot day so I highly recommend bringing a bottle of water with you and maybe even a small towel. 🥵There were 2 main levels and you could self guide yourself through it although they had a guided tour option. There was zero shade when you’re up on the top but you were able to see where they had the old firing cannons which was super cool. As you walk through each room they had plenty of artifacts and information which was helpful to understand. I felt that it was very well maintained and full of rich history! They do offer bathrooms inside as well.

Very cool and unexpected find on Amelia Island during our vacation. The fort was built before the war of 1812 and most recently still under military control during WWII. It was near exploring all the nooks, kitchens and barracks and offices quarters. You can walk on top of the tour for a view of the river and see Georgia. There is a soldier dressed is union uniform that will answer any questions you have as well as a museum full of all the history. Only $2.50 pp.

A Truly Remarkable Place – Thoughtfully Designed and Full of Heart The memorial site left a deep impression on me – I’ve rarely seen a place so incredibly well maintained. It felt like you could eat off the floor! The entire area is beautifully embedded in nature, and even the walkways themselves feel like part of the experience. The memorial is designed with a sense of elegance and modernity, without ever feeling artificial or overdone. On the contrary, it’s both refined and respectful. The integration of water elements is particularly well done and adds to the serene atmosphere in a meaningful way. In short: this site is unique and absolutely worth visiting. But as we all know, the best is often saved for last. Every member of the staff we encountered was kind, dedicated, and clearly passionate about their role. Thank you so much for your commitment and presence! I would especially like to mention one remarkable staff member in the small museum behind the gift shop. Unfortunately, I didn’t catch her name, but she truly made a lasting impact on my visit. She explained the exhibits and background stories with such clarity, enthusiasm, and depth – and in a way that was perfectly adapted to my language level (I’m not a native speaker). What touched me even more was how warmly and naturally she welcomed my young daughter as well. I was truly impressed. Her warmth and passion genuinely made my day!

Striking building housing items made or designed in West Virginia. On the outside there's a local artist sculpture garden, picnic table area, small playground. There are tee shirts , blown glass, wood creations, Fiesta Ware dishes, honey, jams, other food, many other items too for sale and a cafeteria and indoor seating area. I thoroughly enjoyed the rainbow trout from West Virginia dredged in seasoned cornmeal and pan seared topped with lemon butter sauce along with the local roasted mushrooms and mashed potatoes with gravy. You pick your meal. Extensive menu including fried green tomato sandwiches.

The New River Gorge Bridge is simply breathtaking and well worth the stop. Starting from the visitor center, we took the drive down below the bridge and it gave us a whole new perspective on just how massive and impressive the structure really is. The views from both the top and the bottom are incredible, and the drive itself is an experience—winding roads, river views, and plenty of photo opportunities. Pairing the visitor center exhibits with the bridge drive made the visit even more rewarding and gave us a deeper appreciation of this iconic landmark.

Did the Asylum After Dark ghost hunt of the three outer buildings for my birthday this past Saturday (9/27/2025) and I cannot say enough good things about it. Shea was an amazing tour guide and he even told us where to find the Lobotomy room in the medical building which was exciting. The medical building was definitely the creepiest out of the three outer buildings. My mother and I actually got scared out of there and didn’t go back in so we are glad it was the last building of our ghost hunt. The tour guides told us that it was probably Joker that scared us out since that is something that he likes to do. I highly recommend the ghost hunts at TALA! They are amazing and so much fun even if you don’t have any ghost hunting equipment. We will definitely be back, and we hope that we get Shea again!

Came here with my wife and we stayed in the lodge while her parents camped in an RV on the campground. This place is really great and beautiful scenery abounds. The hiking is great too, and even a bit more challenging than I had expected. Make sure you do the Dobbin House loop, it’s a good 5 mile hike.

We were absolutely blown away by this stunning architectural masterpiece, tucked away in the mountains of western PA. Even though the home is undergoing a much overdue restoration, there were still so many sights to take in, from the moment you enter the property. The grounds, visitor center, gardens and trails capture the sublime elegance of this marvel of Frank Lloyd Wright's crowning achievement. The home itself is both opulent and inviting, refined but not pretentious. It's a place that seems to invite one to relax over good conversation. Hopefully this museum can be enjoyed by many generations to come!

Our recent stay at Oglebay Resort was great! The entire staff was quite friendly and our room (#W215) was spotless and well equipped. The food was exceptional, as was the wait staff (including the omelet lady). This is a great place to stay any time of the year; we will definitely return.

Visiting the Flight 93 National Memorial was an incredibly moving experience. The grounds are beautiful and serene, creating a space that is both respectful and powerful. Walking through, you can feel the weight of history and the deep honor given to those who showed such bravery that day. It’s thoughtfully designed, and every detail encourages reflection and remembrance. A truly humbling place that everyone should experience at least once.

Very beautiful and historic place. The incline has been running since the 1800's. Its been a must see location in Pittsburgh for many years. My son and I went for our 1st but not last visit. The views of the city are spectacular. Many different ways to get great photos. On the cable car and at the top on the observation deck. At the top there are lots of exhibits that outline some of the history of the incline and cars. It also depicts interesting history of Pittsburgh. It is so cheap that a family could afford this fun and educational excursion. Ill definately be back with more of my family. Take cash and exact change. A round trip for 2 adults is $10. They are friendly and nice enough to let you go ahead and ride. You can get change at the top. Either from the gift shop or an ATM.

We were there on a beautiful September day, when they had their Jungle Quest summer flower show! What a joyful day and a great time for families with kids. My daughter loved the tropical plants and blooms and was excited to search for the toucan perched on top of the foliages. She loved playing in the areas designated for children and loves learning about the different species of plants and animals that live in these environments. We spent at least 3 hours there touring and visiting the gift shop. The best part is having lunch at the nearby park.

One of the most beautiful ball parks. If you’re in are coming here do not forget the stadium is outside and many of the seats are in the sun! Catch a day and night game so you can see the skyline during both times of day. You’ll be walking along the Roberto Clemente bridge and the view of the bridges from here are excellent. So many good photo ops. Highly recommend catching a game here!

Went on a road trip and had the pleasure of visiting this place!!! What a great time! My boyfriend loved it!!! Learned a lot of very interesting facts about helmets and the progression of safety. It was super interesting!! The guy giving the demonstration was awesome!!! There were so many people working there full of football facts!! There is a fellow from England, I think, and he was hanging in the hall of heads. He is chock full of facts about the players. So great chatting with him! Had lunch in the cafe, great meal!!! So reasonably priced too!! We had a really wonderful time!!

I took my kids to Splash Lagoon, and we had an absolutely fantastic time! From the moment we walked in, the staff was friendly and welcoming, making sure we had everything we needed for a fun-filled day. The water park itself is amazing—tons of exciting slides, a lazy river, and a huge wave pool that kept my kids entertained for hours. The water was warm, and everything was clean and well-maintained, which made the experience even better. My kids especially loved the tipping bucket and the indoor-outdoor hot tub! There were plenty of seating areas for parents to relax while the kids played, and the food options were surprisingly good for a water park. We grabbed some snacks, and everything was fresh and reasonably priced. Overall, it was the perfect family outing. My kids are already asking when we can go back, and I’m more than happy to plan another trip! If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly getaway, Splash Lagoon is a must-visit.

Not from this state so I am thrilled to say, this is a MUST when visiting PA. Parking-Free, Beach-Free, Park-Free, bathrooms by beach are decent. You have changing rooms and showers. It's clean and beautiful environment. Definitely a great place to visit with family and friends. If you want more private beach, go to Beach 8. 10 am until 2 It's just peaceful.
