    Switchback
    Taylor S.

    We had a fun time at ZDT's Amusement Park. While they only have one rollercoaster, Switchback, it is a fun, fast, and unique ride that you get to experience both forward and in reverse. Additionally, they have several other thrill rides that you can go on when you get tired of the Switchback, as well as go-carts, rock climbing, arcade games, a MaxFlight Motion Simulator, and when in season, water rides. And I even liked the food here. Plus, they are cheaper to go to than SeaWorld or Six Flags in San Antonio and the lines are usually much shorter. All in all, ZDT's Amusement Park is a fun way to spend a day, and is definitely worth the drive from San Antonio or Austin.

    Donhauser family has brought To the community a fantastic fun center. If a roller a coaster enthusiast you must visit their roller coaster. Season passes are affordable and can be a great option during our hot summer days.

    We are Las Vegas out of towners. This place was great & lots of fun. You get some much for your money. It was awesome. Now...if they could just control the heat and humidity, it'd get a 5. There is so much to do. A water park, roller coaster & a few other rides, go-carts with the best ever track, video games, a trampoline, wall climbing, indoor play area, etc. You could stay there all day and not get bored. What a great place for families to hang out together. Some of the games are dated and don't work perfectly but they are all free so if you get annoyed, just move to the next machine and try it out. Definitely a place we'd go again and again. It was great for all ages, ranging from 10, 13, 18, 38, & 42. Thanks ZDT's for helping to keep family time fun.

    Awesome, just awesome! Great place to bring the kids! For one price, you can purchase a bracelet that will enable the kids to do absolutely everything and the best part is that this establishment is very well maintained! Everytime I have been here, there has not been a video game that is not working. I have done my boys' birthday party here and it has been a hit and other party members have followed pursuit and have had their bday parties here. Pizza is brought in from Dominoes and you can bring in your own cake and supplies. Drinks are bought by the pitcher onsite. In addition to the video games (that's also located in another "gaming house"), there is a huge jungle jim, rock climbing walls, virtual roller coaster, a couple of outside thrill rides, a huge slide and go-carts. So much is offered and makes a whole afternoon of fun for the kids. Highly recommend if you don't mind the drive to Seguin.....

    I took six (12-14 year-old) girls here for my daughter's birthday this past week. * First off, the website is deceiving. There is a colorful "drop down" menu which lists "Attractions" then proceeds to list 1. Family thrill rides 2. Active Attractions 3. Water Rides and 4. The Video Arcade Okay, we expected to spend the day here but were a bit disappointed to find that we completed the park in less than 3 hours. For $25 a pop, that seemed a bit expensive to me, especially after a 90 minute drive. The girls did all the rides/attractions numerous times (as the park was completely empty) and they did have fun but we probably would not go back for that price. I feel that if the price point was more like $15-$17, the place would get tons more business. It was so empty :o( Also, the go-carts had so many issues. There were only 8 people in line ahead of us but the wait was 35 minutes due to the drivers crashing, causing all carts to continuously stop. Then, the attendant had to physically walk to the cart that was causing the problem and walk it off. This was common and one attendant had to fix it each time... just frustrating. The huge covered area near the water slides is nice but definitely needs some water/drink sales. It was 100 degrees and would have been nice not to have to make the walk to the main building to buy drinks for the girls (who were soaking wet). Just a suggestion :) Most girls that we brought had been to ZDT's once (years ago) and all their parents said they just thought it wasn't worth the price to go back... Maybe even a "half-price day" to see if it increases sales? I'd love to see business boom.

    $25 for extreme wristband for rides and everything About $12 for arcade only, no big rides About $6 for go carts only if your kiddo is too young to drive ZDT the solution to the "I'm bored, I'm bored" I constantly here from my eight year old nephew trying to get me to take him somewhere. Out here in this small town there isn't much and it's hella far from the big amusement parks in SA so it's nice to have this. The place is cool and seems to have a variety for kids of all ages. There's kids all the way up to pre-teens and even some adults/parents playing. The employees were chill and friendly. The lines are so short, so you can ride rides over and over. There's no coins or cards for video games just the armband. If you're planning on doing waterpark rides, bring a suit! FYI:They have a few lockers for rent.

    Zidt's is a small amusement park located in seguin. They have rides like go carts. Rock climbing is available. Rides are indoor and out so you can enjoy even if it rains!! The little ones will really love jungle play land and ballocity! They serve hotdogs, hamburgers, pizza and snacks. Great for a birthday party or just to let the kids burn some energy

    We have two teenage grandsons and two elementary aged grandkids we spend allot of time with. Finding something that fits all their hopes and dreams can sometimes be challenging. Not here. We put together a last minute get away weekend and have been here in Sequin area. Found this place in some Google searches. We really hit the jackpot. These people understand kids. We visited historical sites in the morning then came over about 12:30. For one very reasonable price they played for over 7 hours on video games, arcades, simulators, 2 story ball blasting area, rock climbing inside and out, zero gravity bouncer something, go carts, driving games, 2 midway style rides, and water slides.... All inclusive. Had one picnic meal we had brought outside and snacks inside. Very cool and comfortable when inside and non players don't pay! They keep everything very clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. The kids are already ready to come back. Not an eye rolling or complaint was seen or heard all day about this activity.

    I came to the area to spend time with my good friend and I suggested we come here. I had remembered…read morethe last time I went on a Mountain coaster was in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. So I was excited to see what New Braunfels has to offer. I prepaid online for the tickets and reserved for 11:00 AM on a Saturday. When I arrived, the parking situation was terribly confusing. Once you drive in, there's a huge parking lot then there's a sign that says, "Camp Fimfo", I drove through the entrance of the sign. Towards my left, I saw a water park and drove to the back of the amusement park where I spotted everyone on golf carts. I turned around and drove to where the coaster was a tiny sign pointing in the direction of it. I got lost and via Google reviews a lot of people do. So to find the coaster, keep your eyes peeled for tiny signs that they "alpine coaster" is on the left side after the water park. There's plenty of parking in front of the coaster and a country store on site. I parked on some dusty rocks as the parking lot wasn't paved. There was hardly anyone else around for the 11:00 AM slot which was great! No long lines. My friend and I located the restroom on the side of the store. Restrooms were clean. Back at the coaster, we both signed waivers and the coaster staff helped us into separate seats with seatbelts. I had so much fun!! I couldn't stop laughing because the speed was fast around the curves and I didn't pull up the brakes. I pushed down the lever to make the cart go. I loved this Alpine coaster!! They have lockers where you can store your personal belongings. Bring your own lock. I would go around this coaster over and over again if I lived closer!!

    Dinosaur Park in Cedar Creek is amazing!…read more I have a little one that is absolutely obsessed with dinosaurs and my social media algorithm has been sending me videos of this place for years, so I was very excited to finally check it out. They are located in Cedar Creek which is south east of Austin (about 20-30min drive from downtown Austin). When you arrive you get your tickets and give you a quick explanation of the trail. The trail with all the dinosaurs was amazing! They probably had about 30 something dinosaurs, mammals and reptiles around the trail. We did the walk in around 45min but we definitely did it at a higher pace since my kid was very excited and kept running from one dino to the next. I like that they had a small description for each one with some fun facts. They also had a couple smaller dinosaurs hidden around the trail and they also had smaller ones that you could take pictures with. At the end of the trail they also have a playground and an area where you can "excavate" for fossils. You can also rent a private area near the playground for birthday parties which I thought was really awesome. The store is huge and has a crazy selection of dinosaurs toys (probably the best I've ever seen). Overall, an amazing experience and I will definitely be back during my next trip to Austin!

    This was a neat find! My wife and I were headed home from Austin to Dallas and decided to take a…read moredetour to check this place out. The park is certainly geared more towards children, which is great! There's plenty of space in the playground area as well as picnic tables and a pavilion. As 2 adults in our mid 30s, we thoroughly enjoyed the length of the trail, as well as the detail in the sculpture quality, and the plaques along the way that provide historic descriptions of each exhibit. It's a fun place, though, is highly recommended bringing a child along as it would make the experience even better.

The pros: to start the experience off we showed up around 1045am (15 min before opening) and there was plenty of free parking, which was amazing! All of us were able to get a free spot and honestly that's a bonus for a place like this. Most places have you paying for parking. Security was quick and easy and the fact you can also bring your own coolers and food and drinks is also amazing as most places do not allow that and force you to purchase their overpriced items. So this was great. I love eating healthy so I was able to feel good about my food that day. The park (we went to both east and west side but spent most of the day on the west) was well maintained and fairly clean from what I saw. The beautiful oak trees and plenty of picnic tables that you could set up your stuff on was also nice. We sat near the river and it was the perfect place to set home base and enjoy our food. Loved how it was also set next to the pool. Whatever playlist or dj they had that day was awesome. 90s R&B was on the loud speakers so that was right up my alley. :) My friend lost her phone in the wave pool/lazy river and someone turned it into the lifeguard and we were able to retrieve it from them. We appreciated the honesty of whoever found it and also to the lifeguards for holding it for us. Cons: the unfortunate part of the trip was the lines. My goodness. Average wait time was up to an hour each ride. We were there from open to close which was 8 hours and we went on 4-5 rides. So needless to say this was a bit of a bummer. For $60 we would have wanted to get more action for our money. This is why I gave the park 3 stars. The workers did seem a little young and also one of them was fairly rude. A friend of mine were trying to get a tube and the worker stopped me and said I'll get it. And then threw the tube at me. ------- To be honest I know there were a lot of reviews from people who have been here from years and years past who are disappointed in the way this park has headed. While it's sad to hear I only know what I know and I'm used to long lines at other theme parks so it seemed pretty on par. However, if this place used to have shorter lines whatever is needed to get back to that would be appreciated and honestly would bring more business to this park as I'm sure people will continue to avoid this place if they have to wait in line 1-3 hours per ride. So I hope management changes things. I could tell some of my friends weren't too happy with waiting in line so long. Over $100 per person for a fast pass is absolutely ridiculous and robbery if you have more than one person in your group. There has to be another way. Thankfully I was just so happy to have a girls day with friends that I kinda overlooked the long line times but I'm sure had I not been in such a happy mood-it would have been a big buzz kill. Overall, I had an amazing time outside the long wait and all my friends said they had a blast so that's a win! Unforgettable girls birthday trip:)

They run through the summer season for a few months daily, then switch to weekends only in the late summer. I would advise getting there as they open to get the best parking - we arrived around noon a couple weeks ago and had to park at a lot that was a little less than a mile away. Not so bad for just the two of us, but a lot harder for those with coolers and bigger groups. The parks are amazing - so many fun tube rides, body slides, and some faster tube blasters that are so much fun! I especially like the double rider tubes in Schlitterbahn east, like the Black Knight. I highly recommend the Fast Pass - it is a steep price but well worth it for accessing more of the rides. We felt like the regular fast pass was more than enough as we didn't have time to access all the rides once throughout our day. We also only visit once per season, though. It's been pretty crowded on both of our recent visits - Saturdays in July and August. I would guess it's less busy during the weekdays. We got to ride the Falls (worlds longest tube ride) on our visit in mid-August but they shut it down for the rest of the season the day after we went. All in all definitely worth visiting at any age and very family-friendly. You can rent a locker for your belongings and some folks keep their coolers on the tables by the larger pool areas. You can bring in food/drink or purchase in the park and they have Dippin Dots!

The burgers, fries (oh my..I dream about the bucket o' fries), corn dogs and homemade lemonade seriously compete with independent food trucks in Austin. This is a local Austin family run business.

The rides are fun and small enough that my 4 year old still has multiple ride options. I know that people sometimes are discouraged by the cost of going to a carnival. When you look around and see the cost of operating such a business, the cost of admission is totally appropriate.

My only detractor for this facility is the glaring lack of history of the world famous Aquarena Springs. It is mentioned briefly in the tour, and there are of course remnants of the former attractions. However, in their "museum" there is only a small glass case with a plate smattering of memorabilia. This included some dry-rotted goggles, an old program, and poorly displayed photo slide you can squint at inside the glass box. I understand that the history of Aquarena is one of ecological exploitation. Perhaps they want to avoid celebrating this past. However, you can't deny the effect it had on the area and how it still resonates to this day through SM's mermaid culture, among other things. Maybe one day the roof top of the old hotel could house a better collection or display. Or maybe the old trails could be opened for exploration. Until then, I will ensure that every visitor that comes to see us is taken on the glass bottom boat tour and they get so see our San Marcos salamanders.
