Kelly AJune 15, 2015Love Sesame Place!! Recommend a hotel package. I wish it opened a tad earlier. Very clean and great customer service. Lunch lines way to long!! Count Dracula's Water Castle = my fave
Great place for the littles. Lots to do. Might be a bit on the pricey side, but season passes are worth it to save $$.
Linnie DAugust 19, 2016Come early. Bring water. Order the strawberry salad at the Elmo restaurant. Elmo the musical is terrific. Try big bird's rambling river. You'll be ready to leave by 3:30 after the parade.
Loni FrenchAugust 27, 2015Fun place for kids. Lots of rides for their age/size. Bring a stroller and a change of clothes if you plan on getting wet. The parade is the best!
If you have a child with special needs, stop at the Welcome Center and get a RAP Sheet. It helps your kids enjoy the park to the fullest. (My son has Autism and it really, really helps.)
Find the warm cider, dress warm warm. Hit Santa up first before they tucker out or get to red a nose. Multiple day pass is free, so buy one pass get 2nd day free.
David MulveyAugust 9, 2014Good for kids and smiles. Not big so the kids don't get tuckered out walking. Go early and plan to leave by 3:00. Nice picnic area outside gate so you don't get beat up by park prices.
john zhJanuary 1, 2015Try come a cloudy day or low temperature day, will get you a less crowded park. It's fun if you are not waiting in lines for 30 minutes (each ride or show) or so.
Brazen LingerieJuly 29, 2013If buying a Season Pass, buy one as a Big Bird (includes parking) under a child's name. Then no matter who takes the kid, parking is always taken care of. No need to buy that level for each person.
Richard RevillaOctober 28, 2015Weekend crowd can be too large to handle the size of this park, especially when the water ride are closed. Lockers are $14. Crazy. Otherwise a great day for the kids.
visitPAJuly 29, 2013Whether it’s the multi-level interactive Splash Castle or the Teeny Tiny Tidal Wave, beat the heat with these tame and relaxing water rides for the kid in all of us!
- visitPAAugust 19, 2013Sesame Place is the only theme park in the country dedicated to the popular TV show 'Sesame Street' and is an ideal spot for families with young children!
JoShaun G. H.November 5, 2011Take a look at the selection... pizza, hot dog&chicken nuggets all with fries, bottled OJ, H2O, apple juice and a fountain drink, 2 cookies and a cup of jello ... Damn near $30!! ... Eat b4 u come
Diane JuhneviczAugust 19, 2012Great Park and a Really Fun Time. One major thing missing is Changing Rooms. Kind of strange with all the water rides that there is no place to change except the bathrooms. ENJOY!
Jason AndersonJuly 3, 2011Spring for the VIP Parking. It is $25, but you'll save if you plan to use a locker ($15 regular parking + $20 for locker for day) the VIP Parking is literally 10 feet from the main entrance.- Jay PreisnerJune 13, 2016Vapor Trail. We go first every time we come. Count's water castle is super fun and the Parade is always enjoyable.
Meredith AAugust 17, 2011Secret spot in the Count's Castle...in the middle, up the stairs your child can dump buckets of water, spray, hose, etc those unsuspecting peeps down below. Hours of fun for a young child!- Inn at Fox ChaseSeptember 20, 2022We’re conveniently located just minutes from a variety of local attractions, including Camden Aquarium and Sesame Place.

Matt SlocumMay 26, 2012When riding the Vapor Trail roller coaster, the electronics are stored in the odd numbered cars, thus there is more leg room in the even numbered cars.
Missy NarkiewiczMay 26, 2013Found it to be designed for older kids not the crowd its targeting.Mostly water rides and the dry rides are still wet from the person before you being in a wet suit. Dutch wonderland is better!

Ted RoehmJanuary 15, 2017On New Years Eve they do fireworks. A Very Furry Christmas is really cool too.
Andrew G.March 10, 2015It's pretty tolerable for adults and the kids will have an awesome time. Obviously, due to the theme, it's better for littler kids.
christmas time is a great time to catch the rides without melting in the heat of summer
Visit PhillyOctober 8, 2010Try an Elmo’s ANY Two-Day Ticket, a promotional ticket product that allows two days of fun for the price of one. These two days do not have to be consecutive and may be used on any regular scheduled o Read more- Nate FolkertAugust 1, 2017if you can't find your e-ticket email, no need to buy new ones;go to customer service and they can look you up by name.
Buy a refillable cup and then refill it for free at Cookie's Cafe or the Ernie restaurant. You'll be saving 99 cents each time.
RM StoneJanuary 9, 2012Love it here been going since my son was a year old we buy season passes every year. During the discount sales event.
Amanda AAugust 8, 2015Ask the workers when the characters will come out and get there 10-15 min early.
Yes, it is pricy. But, if you are in the area, get an annual pass and split your days up. Great fun for the 7 and under set... and the food isn't too bad.
Danielle SperberJuly 22, 2010Buy a season pass, it's so worth it. You get free parking and 30% off food and merchandise. Get there early and the crowd isn't so bad.
Tiffani Nichole JohnsonJune 12, 2013Bring someone to hekp u. Trying to keep up with ur child, belongings and and stroller is daunting.
Allison JohnsonAugust 15, 2013Wicked expensive and not many rides but my 2.5 year olds pure joy when she hugged Ernie (her favorite) made it worth every penny.
Chad PetrieJuly 17, 2011If you want to do Big Bird's Rambling River, make sure to enter behind island cabanas. Zero line when main line was past the fences.
Get a spot in the beginning of the parade route, this way you are done with it earlier and can get back to the rides before the lines get long!
Terri OlenskiFebruary 16, 2010Love this place! Lots of water fun, rides and a parade of characters, lots to do all day. Best time is 4pm-5pm for discounted rates.
The N CrowdJanuary 17, 2011Lets be honest.... you want to go down a water slide right now, don't you? Do it... we won't judge... in fact, we fully support it. Just don't push any 4 years olds out of the way to go down 1st.
'Anan8808June 8, 2014If at all possible use the preferred parking. It is only 3 dollars more than general and you don't have to cross the road
Shannyn B.September 12, 2011You can bring anything plastic for drinks n a small cooler.just no glass. I love halloween time!
Leo KimSeptember 8, 2014Bottle of water here is $3. If you drive a couple blocks past the turn off and go to Wawa, it's $4 for two 6-packs. Just sayin'.
Pallie ThompsonJuly 18, 2010Have one person buy the Big Bird Season Pass. The difference in price you will make up in parking and discounts on food and merchandise if you are going for 2 days.
Kimberley SimmonsJuly 6, 2011very nice! a lil expensive ..but i saw all my childhood tv friends and the chane to sit on the stoop
