    I grew up watching the Travel Channel and constantly seeing specials about Cedar Point, so finally…read moregoing for the first time at 33 honestly felt surreal. Last weekend was definitely one of those core memory trips I'll never forget. I'm part of an LGBTQ+ coaster group called Scream Queens and throughout the year we travel all over the country hitting different parks. Usually our trips are around 20 people, but this time? SIXTY gays descended onto Cedar Point like a very organized pride parade with hydration packs and Fast Lanes. We'd split into smaller groups during the day, but half the time there'd still be 30 of us migrating coaster to coaster together. Every time we made it to the correct station, we'd politely ask the ride ops if we could ride the same train, and every single time they did their best to accommodate us. The staff was genuinely so kind about it too, which we appreciated because coaster people know that kind of thing can absolutely throw off operations. Special shoutout to Alexis working both Wild Mouse and the Himalaya in the Boardwalk area. A few of us walked up in our Scream Queens shirts and completely unprovoked they got on the mic and said: "We want to give a big welcome to the ICONIC Scream Queens joining us today." The way a group of mostly 30 and 40 year old men collectively screamed like little kids... embarrassing but beautiful. The only slight downside was that since it's still early season, a few rides weren't operating like Sky Ride, the Ferris wheel, and Magnum XL-200. Since we were there Thursday through Saturday, having those open probably would've helped spread the crowds out a bit more. But honestly? It didn't take away from how amazing the trip was overall. Absolutely can't wait to go back. Also very curious to see how the park evolves now that it's under Six Flags Entertainment Corporation leadership. The coaster community will definitely be watching lol.

    My family visited Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, and overall we had an absolutely fantastic time…read more Cedar Point is known as the "Roller Coaster Capital of the World," and after visiting, it's easy to see why. There are so many rides and attractions that it honestly feels impossible to experience everything in just one visit. The thrill rides are incredible. If you love roller coasters, this place is like paradise. From massive towering coasters that shoot you high into the sky to lightning-fast launches and huge drops, the excitement never stops. Some of the rides had our hearts racing before we even got on them just by watching them fly across the tracks. The feeling of climbing slowly to the top of those massive hills and then dropping down at incredible speeds is an adrenaline rush like no other. My kids and their friends absolutely loved the thrill of it all. One of the coolest parts about Cedar Point is just how many rides there are. Everywhere you look there's another roller coaster twisting through the air, another thrill ride spinning and flipping, or another attraction waiting to be explored. There's a great mix of rides too, so whether you like extreme coasters, classic rides, or more family-friendly attractions, there's something for everyone. The atmosphere throughout the park is really fun and energetic. You can hear people cheering, laughing, and screaming with excitement as the rides fly by overhead. Being right on Lake Erie also makes the setting really beautiful. There are some amazing views of the water while walking around the park, which adds to the whole experience. Now, I will say that Cedar Point can definitely be pricey. Tickets, food, and extras can add up pretty quickly when you're visiting with a group or family. The food itself was actually really good, but the food lines were extremely long at times. We definitely spent a good amount of time waiting in line just to grab something to eat. The ride lines were also pretty long, which is somewhat expected at such a popular amusement park. When you have some of the best roller coasters in the world, people are going to line up for them. Even though the wait times could be lengthy, the rides themselves were absolutely worth it once you finally got on. Despite the cost and the long lines, the experience overall was completely worth it. My family and my kids' friends had an absolute blast from the moment we walked into the park until the moment we left. There were so many laughs, so many screams from the roller coasters, and so many fun memories made throughout the day. Cedar Point truly is an iconic amusement park and a must-visit for anyone who loves thrill rides and roller coasters. It's exciting, energetic, and packed with attractions. Even with the long lines and higher prices, the fun and excitement make it a place our group will definitely remember and talk about for a long time.

    The Detroit Zoo's penguinarium and butterfly exhibits are exceptional, beautiful, worthy, heavenly…read more The train was highly restored and a treat to ride again! However, we were surprised when visiting after having the opportunity to travel and visit other community's zoos. When returning to our own zoo and comparing it to others and our recollection of the Detroit Zoo during its peak years, we wondered what's going on. Care and gardening quality of the property is significantly enhanced. Yet, there are far fewer animals. Isn't this a zoo's primary role. Distance to view animals is further than other zoos. We had to apologize to our out of town guests and remind them that the Detroit Zoo used to be better! Perhaps declining financial support from the City of Detroit over decades negatively impacted upkeep and care of the infrastructure and opportunity to support and care for large animal populations. Detroit Crain's reported that in 2008 and 2010, State of Michigan legislation was enacted to assist the state in preserving the Detroit Zoo and the Detroit Institute of Arts by creating new county taxing authorities with the power to levy taxes in support of the institutions. (Resident taxpayer visitor fees are still required.) Either even after 17 years current funding hasn't replaced what the zoo previously received in its glory days. Or, current leaders have different views regarding the purpose of the Detroit Zoo, animal populations and opportunities for guests to easily see them.

    Love our zoo!…read more Historically it has always been a zoo doing the right things for the animals, the visitors, and the community. Consistently through my life this behavior has remained the same. We are passholders since the kids were born and have always felt we got our money's worth. The modern penguin and polar bear facilities are so great to experience and should not be missed. New things are popping up all the time so repeat visits never get stale. The after hour cash grab events are really all over the place and can be a little bit of a nuisance but this isn't uncommon for zoos or equivalent facilities in the modern era. Only once did we arrive on a spontaneous trip to the zoo to discover it was closed for a private event (this was at like 1:00 PM on a Saturday? Not sure what was up with that?). I do have to comment on our last visit to the Zoo Lights where there were two operational changes that made the visitor experience worse in what seemed like unnecessary ways. First, the trail (where they do the extra cost animatronic animals during the year but is decorated for Zoo lights) was being run in reverse direction from normal. My only guess was this was to attract people's attention through creating an artificial line by forcing people to enter through the small door exit instead of the standard wide open area. Maybe just better signage or lighting? Team member on the main path to guide people in? If it wasn't for this reason..I'm not sure what to think. The other was a forced path to direct you into the Events Pavilion where there was entertainment and other activities. Again, I assume this was to 'force' people to these attractions to make sure they didn't bypass. However, the path that was blockaded goes directly next to the Pavilion and we have never failed to notice it. This created a weird bottleneck and rattled our party by having to go directly into the loud and flashy environment at the end of a long trip. Once more..if this wasn't for my above guess..what are we doing? These are minor grievances compared to the years of fun and education the zoo has provided myself and my family. Oh yeah, and the water tower!

They couldn't wait stroll through the trails with wands in hand, activating the displays and marveling at the lights. This year was even more spectacular than last. I will continue to take them each year! my only suggestions, trying not to make it a complaint, is the lack of direction in the parking lot. Also, making wands available with online ticket purchase. It is not clear to the patrons until they start through the trails. Lastly, entrance to trail is not necessarily monitored, and several folks were walking in with entire families and no tickets were checked. not completely surprised but disappointing when we paid $25.00 per adult and $15.00 per child to enter. Overall a great experience and wonderful family activity for the Christmas season!

The lights and effects are really wonderful and a treat to the eye There are also interactive games that light up the eyes of any child I'm very glad that I went in the group that I went with really had a good time That being said, this is not really my kind of thing and the price of the tickets as well as some of the merchandise had a sniff of Disney World about it But I think they do a great job here and please note that my rating is for people who would really crave and experience like this If I hadn't gone with the group, I would not have gone But if you were looking for a wonderful Christmas light show and fun for the whole family, this will not disappoint
