Great spot for a family night out. Adults can be a kid again for a few hours. Can be tricky to find parking but we usually just pay at a lot. Tickets can be used year after year so you don't loose out if you don't use up all your tickets at one visit. Also arcade games and lots of snacks to choose from. Family friendly fun. Plus you can walk a few steps to the Beach which is always fun too! Fun in the day but you will love to see it at night all lit up its beautiful.

No visit to Ocean City is complete without a stop at Gillian's Wonderland. I have been going there since I was a kid. I still love to see the fire engine ride still going strong after all these years. I was one of those tykes riding it back in the 60's.

Wonderland is usually our favorite but as of last night (7/8/19) multiple rides were not working, including the ferris wheel, which was also not working at this time last summer (not sure if they ever got it running last year). Unfortunately this year there are less rides to choose from but ticket prices don't seem to have dropped.

Fun!

Rides are getting a little out dated. Most haven't changed since I worked a summer there 20 years ago. We bought 70 tickets for $50. Young children rides are 4 tickets and adult rides are 6+. If you are in the area there are two choices, Wonderland and Castaway Cove. Both are similar but Castaway has some updated options but is smaller.

Good for small kids. Rides are old and based on tickets. Essentially every kids ride, 5 and under comes to about $4 a piece and most of the rides are about 30 years old if not older. They have rides for older kids inas well but your mid teen going on 30 probably won't be impressed

Fun

I have visited this pier since I was a kid and it still just as fun and clean as it has been for over 20 years. During the off season is the best time to buy ride tickets at discount for the summer months.

We went three days in a row and did a few rides each day. I love that you can buy tickets and they never expire!!! We even hit a time when all rides were two tickets until 4pm! Our favorite rides are the bumper cars and the Ferris wheel.

They are doing great with having sanitation areas at every ride BUT the people Do NOT KNOW HOW TO RESPECT YOUR SPACE. Just please be cautious. We want all of our kids and family members to just have safe healthy fun. PLEASE Be Respectful to others boundaries.

A good variety of rides for younger and older kids. And rides on Tuesday afternoon are only 2 credits each. That was a savings for sure. Disappointed that the ferris wheel was not working, though.

This place is dirty, run down and half the rides we could not get to or they were not working. The tickets were more expensive and more tickets were needed for each ride then the other amusement park just down away on the boardwalk.

Been going here since I was very young. I give it 4 stars since their huge ferris wheel hasn't been working for the past few years. That's kind of disappointing but there are many other rides for all ages.

It was really clean and friendly on the boardwalk and into the pier. Staff across the board were helpful and had a friendly expression, even the younger part timers were into what they were doing which enhances the experience for us.
Everything was fun, clean, and felt well built / secure.

They have really good deals and specials if you go at the right times. Check online for those.

Buying tickets? Just get the pass. You run out of tickets and surpass the dollar amount of the pass very quickly. May as well enjoy yourself without counting and limiting for the same amount of money

Got rid of some rides... took away alot of benches/ seating to watch rides. Ferris wheel still not working, pirate ship not working, very long to load music express.... and watch closely when they scan the card that has your tickets on it... they over scanned ours by 10 tickets and had I not been counting I would have never known. 10 tickets is expensive..

Fun!

4 of the 6 bigger rides were not running during peak season. Some of the open ones we had to find an attendant for. It was great for the little kids but the older ones rode the same 3 rides over and over. Waste of money

Great for kids and the lines are usually short. Decent selection of rides in the small space. Biggest negative is the prices. A 2 minute carousel ride is about 4 tickets (tickets are $1 unless you buy in bulk, 100 tickets are about $75).

A fun place for adults to bring children for small rides and such. A few rides mixed in for the adults as well. The place was fairly clean. The building and rides were decently maintained, the rides were cost effective and the ticket system was simple. We were there in October, but still there were enough rides open to make it fun.

Great place for families! Our kids had a blast. The tickets get used up quickly, as each ride requires multiple tickets, so depending how long you're staying I definitely recommend getting the larger book of tickets (150 tickets for $100). We are a family of four, were there for 3 hours and only have around 10 tickets left that can be used next time.
Only other comment is I wish they had recycling trash cans on site. They are only on the boardwalk, so many people just throw their plastic water bottles in the trash because it's difficult to leave to throw them out with kids in tow.

Great place for kids. Rides were cleaned and hand sanitizer at all rides. Social distancing was observed. Not to many people for a Friday night during the climate were in right now. Looking forward to happy days ahead.

This is a fantastic amusement park especially if you have kids under 48 inches. Most of the rides are available to ride on by themselves, even the log flume ride. Our granddaughter lives it. She's 7.
