The newest rides never work. Everytime we come, after driving to hours, we're subject to an hour wait to even get inside the park. Then most of the major rides, for example, the Joker ride and the Harley Quinn ride (newest one) were completely down. This park has the longest worst waits for everything from snacks to rides.
My wife and I took the kids and they had a blast. You can buy tickets on-line for a day use and save $20 on each ticket, which was a big help in saving money since food is pricey. $15 per person to ride an elephant, which the kids loved. All in all, it was a trip for them and they had a blast. Since my wife isn't a big roller coster type we didn't do any of the big ones. We all will go back again, not sure when, but we will.
The variety and quality of rides have improved over recent years, and the animals are always great to see. Snacks are still obscenely expensive though. Almost $5 for a juice, soda, or bottle of water.
It was everything you would expect from a theme park. Loved the New Wonder Women ride! And the animals where also an unexpected bonus.
Seems to be under staff , long lines at food service .
Season pass is great value. Fun kid and family entertainment
Great coasters, thrill rides and the animals are pretty awesome as well. Safe & Clean park compared to some other Six Flags locations
There are many games for children, it is a lot of fun !! and for adults too !!
Don't expect the cleanliness or staff helpfulness that Disneyland has, but you are also not paying Disneyland prices so it's hard to complain. Just be aware of the winter park hours before you go.
I love roller coasters so I always have fun here, I only wish it was a bit cleaner. I swear every 10 feet smelled like poo. Otherwise it was all great!
Lines were so long did not get to ride enough rides and lines too long for food, skipped dinner
We took our grandchildren, ages from 14 to 2. The park was difficult to navigate through so far as direction; and where the rides were that the kids could go on according to their size. I just think that the map could have been better. Also, post show times at the entrance of the park and direction to go.
This place needs a facelift. Some paint and bathrooms that are open and working would be helpful. Rides look fun though! Mostly big roller coasters for those thrill seekers. Sea life was cool but this area could use some attention as well. Easy parking when we went in the late afternoon.
My kids love it but sometimes it can be a hassel with the long lines every where but it good other than that
Buying a date-specified ticket from the net will be cheaper
My kids live this place. You can get good deals on season pass during certain yes of the year.
I have lived in the So Cal area for almost 25 yrs wasn't impressed with Marine World then and I must say i'm still not with Discovery Kingdom. I bought my family the Diamond Elite package this year thinking WHY NOT! We went got our passes NO PROBLEM. Go to have our first meal at JB's Bar and Grill...STOOD IN LINE FOR AN HOUR AND FORTY-FIVE(45) MINUTES! Only 2 registers open....Burger was cold as were the fries. Salad was OK! Now off for rides and games. Well in the gaming area I guess there were 1 employee to every 4 games. Our family of 6 got to play all of 3 games. I actually counted 25 people walk away because there was NO SERVICE! Who wants to wait for someone to TAKE their money...NO ONE! WOW what a waste. Now im stuck with a years membership. I hope it gets better. if it does I will review again
Great place to take your kids long as you don't buy any food inside the park cuz it's astronomical
Had a great day! Parking is $25 but it is worth it to pay the extra $10 to upgrade. Father's day was so quiet that we waited no more than 7 minutes for any ride. Make sure you purchase your tickets BEFORE you go. It was fun to feed the Seals and pet the stingrays. Feeding seals costs $6 for 3 little fish. Food and drink prices are extremely high. Water costs $7 and can only be purchased as 2 20oz bottles. Dippin Dots were $10. There are restaurants just 5 minutes outside the gates and are a much more cost effective way to go. Plus the food tastes better than the park food.
For people that talk about the layout being bad or the rides being old, you need to keep in mind that Six Flags isn't the original owner of this park. This was originally Marine World and the first ride here was built over 20 years ago. As someone who took kids to Marine World over 20 years ago, I was sad to see the changes brought to the animal park. I like how Six Flags has incorporated the two since though. You can ride rides, enjoy the butterfly garden, take in an animal show, pet or feed aquatic animals or just relax while the kids play. In no way should you compare this to other parks like Disney or any other Six Flags parks.
Fun n friendly! We are so excited to ride the rides!
Been here all day 7/11/18 and over half of the main attraction thrill rides have been out of order most of the day waste of time and money to travel here on vacation spend this much money just to walk around
Bought a season pass, but never imagined my grandkids would not be comfortable in an amusement park. It felt unsafe to me as well. Alcohol is more available there than kid-friendly activities. Though, others may love the chao. Trying now to cancel season pass. We'll never go there again.
I'm a male thrillseeker in his 20s who was travelling with 2 friends. The park is not too far from SF and it took us around an hour from downtown to the park with a rental car. Purchasing the ticket online the day before saved us 10$ (=56$), but it seems to be cheaper if you purchase it earlier in advance.
I have been to Six Flags Magic Mountain in LA before and have to say that I was expecting more form this one. We didn't visit any of the animal shows for ethical reasons (and if I had known they keep animals in advance I would not have gone there).
For people of our kind there have only been 2 rides that were thrilling. V2 was closed unfortunately. Medusa is awesome. Superman and The Joker were good. Kong was not fun for any of us, because the way you're seated and suspended results in a lot of kicks on your spine and neck.
Foodwise it's just sad. Already in Magic Mountains I experienced horribly overpriced, poor food. We went to JB's Sports Bar and Grill. I can't really tell what part of the "bar" qualifies for it to be called "grill". Had to queue up for 20minutes, even though only 8 people were in front of me, and wait another 20minutes to get our food. Everything seemed to be poorly organised. The burgers were average quality, but considering the price tag, it's just horrible. Also, the place was so loud because of hollow aluminium chairs on stone floor (and kids), it was difficult to hear your own word.
Overall, I can imagine that the park is good for families with children, but if you're a grown thrill seeker, I think there are better options out there.
Enjoyed this park for its innovative rides and animal attractions. Staff were friendly and helpful too.
Getting rundown. Most of the kid's rides weren't open. Trams weren't running. It's being taken over by Muslims
The rides are really fun but the lines are so long. I spent an hour in each line so I'd definitely suggest going as soon as they open.
Great time was had. However when my 2 year lost her binky on the side of a ride we were directed to guest services. They flat out refused to get it till the park closed. That was 2 weeks ago and guess which 2 year has yet to have her purple hippo binky?
Expensive as ?#$& but the kids had fun and that's what matters
Do not support this place. They profit off of dolphin and orca breeding. They have many dolphin deaths. Wild animals are not entertainers.
#dontbuyaticket #emptythetanks
Not too many rides that dont go backwards. Best rides was medusa and joker
We had a great time time for the first time. I can as a guest on this special day. Looking at all the great prizes to win. The food was also good for the amount received.
It's a good place for a weekend with the LASTIMA family that the food is bad
It's really a great place to bring kids, hang out or go by yourself. This place has it all, there is bathroom at a short distance from each other, there is food and amazing rides for young or old. There is a variety of food and shops. The shops have it all shirts, socks, glasses, bracelets, sweatshirts, toys and much more
Had to wait 2 hours in line to get food hour to get on Rides
It was Great! Lines weren't very long, so I was able to get on entry ride except 2! Didn't purchase the Haunted House tickets (to expensive), but those "zombies" walking around scaring ppl.. Awesome!
Went with my daughter, last minute decision and ended up purchasing a season pass and it was worth it!
I mean... it's a six flags, so it's about what you expect: unhealthy and expensive food, long lines (at least on the weekends), and good rides. Eat before you come, and eat when you leave. Try to avoid having too much food at the park.
Six flags did an excellent job trying to follow CDC guidelines and be there for their members and guests when they needed it most. There are very limited amounts of places to go for a sanity break from being home all the time to flatten the curve. They provided us with an amazing experience with very low risk. The shows were excellent, the staff was amazing. You walk thru a temperature tunnel before you go in, touch free security at entry and advance reservations are required. Masks were mandatory and mask free zones were clearly marked. The only thing strange was that they sold and allowed reusable cups although they did not allow refills. other than that they did an amazing job and we are very appreciative of them opening. The park is mostly empty and social distancing is strictly observed at all the shows.
This place is very fun to be at doing the summer and spring break the kids love going there.
I can t believe you are charging membership fees during the stay in place and parks are closed!! This is wrong in so many ways!
Not alto of time for rides. When they are running, lines for rides are long, plus food lines are always really long for food that isn't really that great for the price. So most of your day is spent in lines. I feel really bad for people who buy day tickets.
Worth it with a season pass! Get the monthly membership
Excessive wait lines with only 1 car running on the tracks. Extra fees hidden everywhere! I come here every 5 or so years and I dont know why I think they will ever improve.
They said they couldn't turn down the temperature. Poor customer service
Nice coaster selection, lots of animals, nice staff, pretty park. It's great!
Almost half of the rides and food stands were closed.
We have season passes and live in town. It's great to go for a couple hours. Mist of the rides are 5 minute lines. But Joker is broken down too often.
Bad customer service, I have 9 memberships that I pay every month, they send me emails that I bring free friends with my membership, I'm supposed to have to walk side by side at the park on Saturday day to grab the food. On Saturday day where the park closes at 6 pm, I arrive at the restaurant at 5:45 am and it turns out that it is already closed because they supposedly do not want to make extra food on Saturday, they call the manager supposedly and tell me, what The only thing you can do for me is to give me a hot dog, really. I can not believe it. That traton for a 3-year-old client with 9 memberships, acute to customer service and can not help lonunico is to make a report, who is responsible for a park of this magnitude, asked to cancel my menorias and I can not even complete the 12 months, yes I have to pay them every month, but they cannot respect the service hours.OMG
About half the rides were broken down. Everytime my husband and I got to a ride it broke down seconds before it was our turn. We got to ride about 6 rides in 9 hours. Don t waste your money. Fright fest was pretty cool tho!
