My husband and I stopped by on a chilly evening (for Florida 40s on go karts is chilly ) hoping it kept wait times down and able to get the most from our visit. After picking up our 3-hour pass for the park, our first stop was to the go karts. Staff was helpful and accommodating in the loading, however once starting I was disappointed that nothing was done for other drivers ramming both me and other drivers. Compared to other tracks I've been to around town, excessively aggressive driving is apparently acceptable. I did say something to an employee, in all honesty, I took an hour cool down across the street at Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner. After dinner, we decided to give another track a go, while a little less aggressive this time, I got tired of being hit in the back over and over, so we gave up on the karts for the night. We ended the evening in the arcade and took home a few trinkets and the staff inside was very friendly and helpful. Being a local, with all the choices around town, I probably won't be back but you never know, it's worth a visit and could be your cup of tea! read more

If I could do 0 star, I would! We drive down to do golf carts today. 3 hr wristband is 25.00, it does include a Carisoul, swings, 2 courses, bumper boats, trampoline. You say ... that's not bad actually.... yea we thought that too. Until you find out 1 golf kart is down which means you stand in line and go once in 2 hours. The trampoline is down as well. The bumper boats/cars ... that's a joke. Not to mention ... no sanitizing takes place since I been here. Save your money and go somewhere else ... I would think McDonald's would be better at this point. read more

It was a very interesting place. Masks are mandatory which is fine. It is a business's prerogative, however my real issue is that the place feels dirty. I didn't want to touch the games or use the bathroom. I was there to have fun with my group and take pictures, but I touched as little as possible and I cringed inwardly at the masked children and teens who played the games and touched their faces without a second thought. Would I go back? Probably not. read more

I was visiting Tampa, we were exploring the city and we came across with Magical midway. The kids did the Sling Shot which was very fun and exciting for them, they also did the Carousel. We enjoyed the rides and had so much fun. However the staff was rude and had a terrible attitude towards the kids. Definitely not coming back here. read more

Magical Midway - Amusement Parks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

We came on a Monday afternoon which, half games were going on so we were having fun for half the price. The kids really enjoyed the place and we ended up winning a decent amount of prizes. The -2 stars goes to the lady that was at the prize concession. Very unfriendly and seemed like she hated being there. A couple instance being, my daughter wanted to look at a fidget spinner that was a prize and when I asked she just said no, and that we'd have to just get it if we wanna "touch" it. And another being, we wanted a ball as a prize, she grabbed one and my son wanted a different color so I asked if she could switch it.. she then snatched the original ball away from my hand and grabbed the other one. Very rude and unprofessional. I'd say I come back but I'd avoid her if I was trying to get a prize. read more

Nice set up.... We were able to ride the Go-Karts. Never rode on a incline and decline. But going down the decline was nice! You pick up some good speed. They have a 3 hour wrist band you can get for $25 and ride everything. It really depends on how long you are interested in staying and much heat you can withstand on a hot day. read more

This is our first time here. My family enjoyed themselves. Bought tickets on Groupon.Excellent deal. The wrist band is good for 3 hrs.everything is included except(sling shot, arcade games and food. read more

For $25 you can get a wristband for 3 hours and ride all the rides as many times as you'd like....except for the slingshot. I had a blast when I recently went. They have bumper cars, bumper boats, a few go-kart tracks, trampoline jump, and the swings that go way up into the air (not for the people with fear of heights!) The bumper cars were a lot more fun than I expected, although I'm a big kid so I'm easily entertained. The go-karts were great! I went as a kid and was always terrified of the large hill at the end of the track and figured it wouldn't be as scary now that I'm older....but I was wrong...the first couple of times freaked me out a bit and then I got over it. The tracks are wooded so it's pretty bumpy, and the go-karts go fairly fast...although if you're lucky like I was, you'll get the kart that's freakishly fast. Probably the fastest one I have ever been on. Barely gripped the corners and definitely got some air time on some of the hills. That thing was crazy and passed everyone on the track. I'd go back for another random outing. read more

This is the best run down carnival I ever been to. $7 to do go karts on their beat up race track was awesome. I believe it was $25 for unlimited go kart rides for 3 hours. I wished the go-karts actually go faster. It has bumper boats, an arcade, swings go very high into the air and a sling shot. Just like a carnival, free to get into. Magical midway seems like a place that someone can film a scary movie from the way it looks cheesy and beat up from the outside. Shoot, they probably already have done it. Had fun there, recommend doing it just to do it. Grade: B+ read more

My daughter enjoyed it. Otherwise, this place is old and needs renovation. DO NOT PLAY ANY GAMES! THEY ARE ALL RIGGED TO THE MAX! Especially that "cover the red circle" game. That's the most rigged game at the carnival. Basically impossible to win. Keep your money and sanity. read more

This place is a dump. Place felt dirty and rundown don't go by these pictures people posted here cause all this stuff is gone. Only thing operational is slingshot and small portion of arcade the rest is boarded up. read more

We came here after playing mini golf only because it was opened late. Not our first choice. It is a mini amusement park with few rides. Each ride has to be paid individually. The rides and decor are dingy and overpriced. Wouldn't recommend. There are better places in international dr. read more

Magical Midway - Slingshot is tons of fun!! - Amusement Parks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

(1/6/2019) We just did the Sling Shot. It's not included in any Midway ticket that you buy there. The Sling Shot is a thrilling, but brief and somewhat pricey experience. $25 per person per ride, but $35 if you ride twice (consecutively). The views are amazing if you keep your eyes open. Here's the trick, stick your arms and legs out at the apex of the trajectory (to change your center of gravity), THAT will change your experience, trust me. read more

This place is deserted and could use some renovations. Before getting on the flyer there were no workers operating the ride in sight so we asked if anyone was working and an employee told us the ride was broken. A few moments later another employee told us they were just messing with us and that it was fine, I decided not to ride it anyway because I rather be safe than take that risk. You couldn't even tell if they were joking or not and I didn't want to end up regretting getting on, the go kart track is okay just has a ton of wood chips so I recommend wearing glasses when you ride. Overall I wouldn't recommend this place. Spent about $25 for one ride and to be disappointed by the lack of attentive staff and options. read more

Unbelieveable service at this place! I bought a groupon to take my kids out for a good time but it was anything but that. As we were redeeming our Groupon the manager RICK advised us that my kids could not use the big tracks, Now I know my two smaller ones could not because they were under 58" however one of the 12 year olds was of hight and they still said he could not ride based on his understanding he said he won't be tall enough just buy looking at him. Now I asked why is that if their "You must be this tall to ride sign says you need to be 58" tall why can't my son drive on the big track when he meets that requirement. RICK a manager there was completely unprofessional and started arguing with my boyfriend about writing that my kids are 11 years old when they are 12 and said he had to because you need to be 12 to drive on the track and according to him they were to small to be 12.. I have posted a photo showing my son was at the 58" you must be this tall to ride line and was still denied access to riding. I will never come back to this place again. He made my son feel like he was not eligible to ride when he was then embarrassed him by marking him as an 11 year old when he's not... Never Again! read more

Took a small group here last night and it was a good time. It was not very crowded at all and all rides experienced no line (walk up and get on) and many times we were the only ones on the ride. Guests were allowed to stay on the ride and repeat their turn as often as they wished. They continued onto larger rides including the sling shot, which each guest rode twice on. They loved it and it was worth the price. All staff were extremely friendly read more

They have the biggest "kick-booty" ride of all time. Kick booty is what we used to call the Yo-yo or swinging chairs ride. Awesome! The sling shot claims it's the world's largest. I'm too much of a Woos to ride it but I do admit it looks great. I'm about to ride the go-karts...I mean for $8 I might just ride twice. :) read more

The prices for an armband were not bad but there were 2 main rides out of order- the SkyFlyer and Space Blast. That was disappointing but the Go Karts earned this more stars. They have a couple different super fun tracks to ride. We would definitely come back but only if all of the rides are working. Would recommend as a reasonably priced family friendly activity in Orlando read more

Magical Midway - Amusement Parks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

It was a total dump, when my family and I were racing on the go karts wood chips were flying everywhere and the wood boards looked very unstable and lots of sharp nails were sticking out of the wood.It is a complete waste of money. There were so many flying bugs everywhere and were all in your go kart while you were driving. The bathrooms where so nasty. There was a chunk of wood in my eye. I would never go back to that place!!!! read more

Magical Midway - Pizza - Amusement Parks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Don't let me 2 stars fool you. I mean Magical Midway is fun. It is a couple hours of fun, and when the rest of Orlando's crazy Tourism kingdom has gotten too much for you, it is nice to find a no wait, simple fun place to go that is crazy in itself, but is just the ticket for a lazy afternoon where the draw of old Florida road side diversions are perfect with friends, family, or kids...just to laugh and have some ice cream in the Orlando sun. International Drive can be a media overload of tourist traps, but it has its charm and easy fun. Enjoy walking along the busy boulevard and see how the other half live. read more

Small but with groupon totally worth it. The tracks for the go carts was awesome. I don't care what anyone says. It's like Mario cart in an open wooden parking garage. The swings scared me but totally insane, i got on them twice. read more

Magical Midway - Midway thrill park - Amusement Parks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I'm 30 years old 4"10 & was declined to drive a gokart since I was 1/2 an inch away from 58". I was completely embarrassed in front of many on lookers in line when the guy refuse to sell me a ticket. He did allow me to ride as a passenger. Please tell me how much safer would I be as a passenger than a driver? I understand if I was an unlicensed kid but I am an adult! Plus how much safer would I be if I was 1/2 an inch taller? Honestly feel like the guy just wanted to be an mean. I have been here before and driven the gokarts with no issues. Any time I have friends visit Orlando it's always one of my go to places but no more lost my business. Let me also add they let 4 year olds go on the sling shot! read more

Gahhh ok this review is based only on the arcade since I spend my whole time there alot..... The arcade at magical midway is like Chucky cheese minus all the colorful ball cages, slides, mouse, and cheese pizza! Super plus signs go to the variety photobooth, resident evil shooting game, daytona 500 racing games, and street fighter. Minus signs go to the air hockey it's kinda slippery and the puck goes crazy flying around everywhere. Also the evil big buck game (deer shooting game) always takes away your tokens. I will visit the star flyer soon to update the review status =)..so far your review is good magical midway! read more

Does not look safe, not interesting at all. It's super empty and not fun in my honest opinion. I give two stars cuz at least the rides kind of work, they don't look safe but it's alright. Don't recommend this place to anyone read more

This place is so rundown I mean you get what you pay for we just had to leave after the first bumper car ride most of the bumper cars were run down or completely broken and the arcade is highly overpriced for shitty prizes we didn't waste a moment there and left read more

Loved playing in this arcade. I didn't do any of the outdoor activities but, the did offer go karts and other outdoor activities. I couldn't stay out of the arcade. This was my second time coming to this place. It's always clean which means much to me. read more

I came here with my family to just enjoy a day out and was greeted by an INCREDIBLY DISGUSTINGLY RUDE employee. I had purchased tickets through Groupon which was my first time using the app so I wasn't very knowledgeable on how it worked so I asked the lady if there was maybe any paperwork or wristbands we could get started and the only response I got was a very loud and rude TWELVE OCLOCK. Confused I paused and said I'm sorry I don't understand I had purchased these tickets through Groupon and I don't know if there's maybe a process that we need to start and again I get TWELVE O CLOCK. As if that wasn't enough she continued to try to literally INTIMIDATE and BULLY me by calling me a bitch and having her do workers watch an snicker. I found a manger RICK and he made everything WORSE . Not only did he not even have the decency to apologize about the rude encounter he ARGUED with me and threatened to throw me out of the park. It's such a shame because the park ACTUALLY is fun for families and children but their staff is disgusting . A ride operator named ludewig was not a manger but manged to comfort and reassure us to make us feel welcomed as we should have from the beginning seeing as how we are paying customers. Again the park is great but with employees like her and managers like RICK this place is doomed Ps I would've left negative stars if possible read more

This run down place IS worth checking out, but just note this: 1. Even though it's an awesome 3stories high go kart track, the ride is a bit slow and incredibly bumpy. I wanted to stop half way. 2. The highest/biggest slingshot ride (I didn't go on) is very expensive. You can't get any deals for this. 3. Bumper carts, I'm just shaking my head thinking about it. 4. Bumper boats. I didn't go on this but the sales girl said it was a slow ride and not as fun as the bumper carts. read more

Not friendly, the lady running the trampoline didn't care that the harness was hurting my daughter. Bumper bots took 15 minutes and two trips to the ticket lady before someone came out to run them. Claimed they were short on staff? Really, during the busiest time of the year? DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE! read more

Magical Midway - Lady was very rude and didn't care that the harness was hurting my daughter. She didn't even adjust the slack correctly in the bungee... - Amusement Parks Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Don't waste your time lol one of the go kart tracks are down and the staff where's no mask the slingshot is where the sanitize it because it separated but apart from that there is no sanitize on the go karts or social distance and the 3 hour for 25 doesn't seem bad but they're really bad just go to Fun Spot America don't recommend this place read more

The rides are all sanitized between new patrons. The arcade is socially distanced and very spacious. Great job management! Staff is very friendly, attentive and welcoming. Such a relief to the hustle and bustle of the bigger parks. Very laid back and family friendly. Our party of 3 generations all had a great time. Adults and kids rode the flying swings, bumper cars, go karts and enjoyed the arcade games. We topped the night off with the slingshot. Added perk, you have to opt for the tshirt and video! Great family memories! Support this business- they are one of the good guys! read more

Ok came magical midway and we wanted to do the go karts they were $8 each person we did not think it was bad at all but they have a special that will include everything unlimited for $30 per person wish is not bad at all the one think we did not like us that the go karts where a bid slow and berly wanted to go up the first hill but if you really want to go on a go kart there are few places here in Orlando that we think they better read more

So much fun! The go karts are truly a hit! Pricing is reasonable and the location is extremely convenient

Over rated they don't have many rides and are small. FunSpot Orlando is a way better option for your money they have way more rides and go kart tracks. Also the slingshot is not that great or scary as a theme park and ride enthusiast I can say there are way better options for the Adrenaline junkie such as the skycoaster at either of the fun spots or even tower of terror is more forceful than the sling shot. Also the employees seemed rude and inattentive. The sky-swing is also not that great since Orlando is getting one twice the hight later this year. Over all not worth it. read more

We had fun here. It is not huge, or flashy, but the go carts were lots of fun and so were the giant swings. Please spent about an hour and a half here. Everyone had a really good time. Staff is very friendly. Prices are reasonable. read more

When you can not even file a complaint with the Florida Better Business Bureau as they are not even accredited...there is a HUGE issue without even having to say a thing....what a liability this facility is. Numerous in flight rides were visibly broken that we got an entire refund. It is not about the money when we could have lost our lives. Guest beware. read more

Pretty cool place to bring kids for a few hours to keep them happy. Even teens will have fun. Go karts are pretty cool and so is the large swing. Didn't realize how high the swing went it's crazy! read more

Go elsewhere! A large majority of the games are out of order. I saw at least 10 staff members there, none of which are working. You have to wait to be acknowledged between there personal conversations and they act as if you are being rude for needing assistance. While they are just "hanging out" the entire place is filthy!!! Trash, have eaten food from the night before, at least a dozen half empty plastic cup on various machines, and a total lack of overall cleanliness!!! Overpriced, lazy/rude staff, and gross. The only thing they will try to talk to you about is going on the slingshot and they will try to push hard! This overpriced attraction MUST be commissioned based. read more
