    Modesto on ice definitely a fun event for the family. We went on Saturday, there was a lot of people, but it seem like the employees were organizing and very helpful.

    I would say for a family night or couples night, this place is awesome. The birthday hosting of actual throwing parties fell short. There was not dedicated workers to any of the parties so essentially you paid to rent a space - $400 you would think there would be guidance or direction like any other place of business that rents parties so this actually entailed longer wait times, walking back and fourth, no explanations and or directions of any sort, not treated of any higher priority from us and a regular customer walking in. So this waiting in line, tickets getting wristbands, going back and forth when a new person of the party comes in, waiting in line again, this pushed our skate rentals back and between 20 kids and tieing laces up put us behind our actual ice skating time which again wasn't described as what it was given (strict ice times) not announcing anything for us to know when it was our time. They gave us a slip with a name shoutout and song which in fact we did not hear happen at all. Never announced when the pizza was coming and dropped it off at the end of our table so it looked like a regular bag any guest would have brought. I paid $5 a walker in advance $30 total when I could have not added on as a prepackaged and paid only $2 each at the door This was stupid to even offer someone who essentially ended up paying you $500 to host my own party at your facility. Not to mention maybe if they did one booking less the tables chairs and guest between all parties wouldn't be so cramped, between chairs back to back from each party people adults were falling over previous session skates being taken off from the neighboring party. Overall The experience of the actual ice skating seemed to be fine, hosting parties - for what you're paying . Should be prioritized a little better in my opinion. Any other actual birthday hosting facilities make the child feel special, you guys did not.

    We had the absolute best time! We bought our tickets online and there is a family pack that saves you some money. You can also do the waivers online prior to arriving. The parking was free and in the same vicinity as the ice rink. I imagine when they're super busy people will use the parking garage across the street. We went today & it's been raining pretty much all day today. It wasn't too crowded and it looked like people were celebrating birthdays. There is designated times for each group session. So check online before arriving. Our session time was 230-340pm. We got there a little early and drank hot chocolate in the snack bar area. They also had little areas where you can take photos by a Christmas tree and Christmas decor. After the other session was done they announced for the session to get off the ice and turn in their equipment. Then someone cleaned the ice up and announced for the 2:30 session to get on the ice. We got our skates and we rented two devices to support our kids when they're skating (I don't know what it's called.) we had so much fun skating! A lot of people were falling and getting back up! It was so fun! They also had staff in the ice rink to help people that needed more support in getting up after falling. We can't wait to come back!!!!!!

    Modest Ice is the Best! Took my wonderful nieces and Nephews. We had a miscommunication about the time to meet. The management understood and accommodated us so the kids could skate. Thank you, Modesto Ice.

    Had a great time with the family at Modesto On Ice. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Rilye in the ticket booth was awesome! Would recommend this place for a fun family activity.

    Pretty small in the parking lot of the double tree hotel. The biggest drawback is the ice is horrible they have sessioned skate times and other places will fix the ice between sessions, not here just let the next group on gouged ice see all the kids fall constantly due to grooves in ice. If this was fixed this place may go up a star on the review. Oh ya and the 5 extra dollars for a pcv stand for kids to hold on to.... rip off!!!!

    Ask the Community - Modesto On Ice

    Can we go walking up any time or do we need to buy the tickets online?

    Hello Karla. Tickets are available at our Ticket Booth for most sessions. Please note, however, that especially on weekends we have many sessions that become Sold Out early, and in those circumstances we wouldn't have tickets available to sell at… 

    Do they offer a discount if you don't need rental skates and bring your own?

    Hi Ginna! Yes, there is a $2/off discount for bringing your own skates.

    Once you have your wristband, you will need to stand in another line to get your rental shoes 10-15 minutes before your session time begins.

I would rate a 10 star if I could but this app only lets me do 5 stars. And after the tour you can buy your photo with them at the gift shop for you and your group which is super awesome. I know on you tube theirs a few videos that show the expedition tour but I myself can't even fit in those tight spaces let alone deal with the claustrophobia and fear of heights this was a good and safe tour for me. Thank you guys for providing this! Also heads up for anyone planning on going to spiral tour the stairs is a long way up and a long way down make sure to have a camera strap for your cameras or phones so you do not drop it or lose it. Thanks to all the tour guides and staff! Great job!

At $80 per child for the most basic package on a weekend I expected a higher level of service. Throughout the party, I had to ask for everything. I had to request water pitchers, ask for a candle and lighter, and no one offered to help cut the cake. The staff didn't offer much help coordinating the event. I've had parties at Pump It Up, where the staff was much more attentive and proactive. I also had an unpleasant interaction with an employee (Scott?). The employee's old white car was parked in front of the facility, with its windows completely down and a cracked windshield, and its alarm went off. The employee came outside, WALKED ON THE HOOD OF HIS CAR to turn off the alarm, and then accused me of hitting his car. My husband and the five children in my car all confirmed that I didn't. After confronting me in the parking lot, he walked back into K1 while I followed behind. I found it very inappropriate for an employee to yell at a customer, especially as they were entering the business. The kids enjoyed themselves, but the overall customer service was not up to my expectations. When I book a party I like to be stress free, otherwise I would just host a party at my own house.

    I have no idea how I was not tracking this water park for kids years ago. If you have kids 2-15 I…read morethink you will find this a great option to change up a slow weekend. Let me also state that if you think you will use it more than once go with the Premium Membership. It will get you 25% off all food and drink items in the park as well as free parking. That alone makes it a no brainer. You can also buy cups, popcorn containers that you can bring back every time and get free refills. To include, icees, fountain drinks and popcorn. The are $30 for the initial purchase and something like $24 with a premium membership, but it adds up. The park has a little bit of everything, if you want water parks it has two options, smaller on geared for infants to toddlers. And a larger one ideal for 5 and up. It's also great for an adult who wants to cool off on a hot day. They have a lot of rides, most acceptable for 3+ yo children. A few rides have height requirements but most of those are ones parents can't accompany the child. The have a train ride that is for all ages and it circles the entire park allowing you to get off at either stop. A tram ride that travels through a botanical garden and a bunch of rides to occupy the kids. Their food options border on fair/fast food. We tried the Wok restaurant and well I would not recommend it. We tried chicken shish-kabobs it was under whelming. Wait times during peak meal times can be very long so recommend you plan around it or suffer during it. One other consideration, while much of the park is under tree canopy, on a hot day stepping out from under the shade into the open can feel like hell's kitchen. Our last visit temps hit over 100 and being out of the shade was brutal. You will never be more aware of this than at the water park areas, lack of shade into those areas is rough. They have cabanas you can rent but I fear on a hot day the cabanas probably get hot since they have no fans. We will definitely be going back and I urge those of you with kids to give it a try.

    We took our 8 year old to Gilroy Gardens for a summer day trip. It was easy to find and parking was…read morea breeze. The parking fee was 25 dollars which they refunded when we bought the premium pass for 40 dollars more. The premium pass gives you unlimited visits and free parking. I think there are other perks but the husband took care of ticketing so the website explains it I'm sure. The park is clean and the young staff is polite and helpful. The bathrooms and pool changing area could use a little more attention but it wasn't too bad. They allow you to bring drinks- we had water bottles. Good security screening which I also appreciated. There are picnic tables in front if you want to exit the park and grab lunch from the car. Otherwise there are many food stands throughout the park. The usual fare and as always pricy. There are rides for everyone. I was surprised to see couples without kids and kids from toddler to High School enjoying the rides. The water pad park includes something for everyone age. For kids in first grade up there are 3 water slides, water cannons, and the buckets dumping water. You can lease a cabana that has a fridge to create a home base for the day but we found chairs to watch the activity. A towel and water shoes/crocs are good to bring. Some kids were wearing goggles. I didn't bring my suit but there were plenty of adults going down the slides. Everyone looked very happy! They have special events on holidays. Halloween, New Years Eve and Christmas are supposed to be well decorated and festive. I guess we will make the trip. Overall, it's a good way to spend a day with younger kids from toddler to grades 5/6.
