My daughter's like a monkey, you can never get her off the climbing wall. So we opted for the all day pass. My husband was also able to belay for her the whole time. SkyJump Trampoline: $12 for 5 minutes. You wouldn't think 5 minutes would be long enough, but it's the right amount of time. Especially if yours is a toddler or a 3yo strapped in a harness attached to bungees! Or if yours is an 11yo trying to flip herself over but can't. All in all, safe and fun. The employees at both activities were professional and great with the kids. Next time, we'll have to try the ropes course!

Avery's birthday at Discovery Kingdom was an absolute blast!…read more We spent a good six hours at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom for Avery's birthday, and this was honestly such a fun first big amusement-park experience for our family. Avery had an absolute blast from the moment we got there until it was time to leave. The Looney Tunes characters were probably the biggest highlight for him because Looney Tunes is his favorite, and Wile E. Coyote is his absolute favorite character. We happened to catch Wile E. while he was closing down his picture area, but he still stopped to say hi to Avery. When Avery told him it was his birthday, Wile E. actually stopped what he was doing and brought him back over to the picture area so they could take a photo together. That was such a sweet little moment, especially because he didn't have to do that. We also caught the 3:30 Looney Tunes dance show, although we got there a little late and couldn't get seats because we were on the other side of the park. Avery didn't care -- he was out there dancing like he was part of the cast. One of the service team members noticed how much he was dancing and told me that if we came back around 4:15 for the 4:30 show, Avery might have a chance to get picked to go onstage for his birthday. And IT WORKED. Avery got picked to go onstage! He wanted to be on Team Bugs because Bugs had won the previous dance show, but he ended up on Team Daffy instead... and Team Daffy WON! He was so proud of himself and had the absolute time of his life. Watching him have that much fun on his birthday was easily one of my favorite parts of the entire day. We rode basically every ride Avery was tall enough and comfortable enough to ride, explored the butterfly garden, saw the lions and giraffes, watched the shows, ate pizza and breadsticks with our food pass, grabbed drinks, and still managed to squeeze in more rides afterward. There is definitely plenty to do here even if you're not spending the entire day on roller coasters. One warning, though: the Road Runner roller coaster is INTENSE. That thing has some serious whipping and an extremely abrupt stop. I would definitely prepare yourself for some unexpected movement because it is much more aggressive than I expected. Even some of the smaller kids might find it intimidating just because of how fast it moves. Know what you're getting yourself into before you climb on that one! Also, prepare to get your steps in. This park is big, and we walked A LOT. But honestly, that's part of the experience. There was always something else to go see, another character to find, another show to catch, or another ride to get on. For a first amusement park experience with our kids, I honestly couldn't have asked for a better day. Avery got to meet his favorite Looney Tunes character, dance onstage on his birthday, win a dance competition, see animals, explore the park, eat good food, and ride a bunch of rides. Everybody had fun, and it was absolutely worth the money we spent. This was our family's first real theme-park adventure, and it definitely opened the door for us to start checking out other parks too. Great America and the other California amusement parks are definitely going on the list, but Discovery Kingdom was a pretty damn good place to start. Six hours later, exhausted, stuffed, and with a very happy birthday boy? I'd call that a successful day.

Took my daughter's hat and pretended to wear it. Made for a fantastic moment. There was also a friendly guy who was observing the kids' rides (safety checks?) in Looney Tunes area. Now the not so good - Be aware: the entertainment division changed the Looney Tunes show (Tunetastic). It's AWFUL now. Think Mean Girls energy. Lots of DRAMA that is completely unnecessary for a children's audience. Way too LOUD. And they don't let children come anywhere near the stage to meet the characters like they used to. It used to be a fun, interactive, and inclusive DANCE PARTY FOR KIDS. We didn't see any Halloween themed stuff this year. Did it get canceled? More positive highlights - feeding the giraffes, a great value for just $10. Get there early! We also enjoyed the Wildlife Experience show - we saw a diverse array of animals. Overall, it was a fun experience for our group, although some experiences were closed (adventure zone and one of the restaurants). We still had a good time!

It was wonderful to see them so engaged, active, and having so much fun. One of the things I appreciated most was the enclosed Kids Zone. As a teacher, it gave me peace of mind knowing the children could play safely while still enjoying plenty of freedom to explore. There was also a nice covered area for parents and chaperones to relax, as well as a great space for eating and gathering as a group. This was our second year visiting, and it was just as fantastic as the first. The staff and facilities made our field trip easy and enjoyable from start to finish. We will definitely be back again next year! Highly recommend for school groups and families alike!

I really wanted to enjoy my visit to Quarry Park Adventures because the park itself is unique and…read morehas a lot of potential. Unfortunately, the experience was overshadowed by poor staffing and customer service. The biggest issue was the wait time. We waited over 45 minutes just for the zip line, which is unacceptable considering the price of admission. It was obvious the park was understaffed, and the lack of organization created long delays throughout the day. If you're only planning to do a few activities, I don't think you'll get your money's worth. The only way this place makes financial sense is if you're spending the entire day there. What made the experience even worse was the attitude of some of the staff. Instead of being friendly and helpful, several employees came across as short-tempered, rude, and irritated whenever guests had questions. Customer service is a huge part of any attraction, and it felt like some staff members didn't want to be there at all. The park itself is a cool concept and the quarry setting is impressive, but management seriously needs to address the staffing shortages and customer service issues. Paying premium prices only to spend a large portion of the day standing in line and dealing with unfriendly employees left a very disappointing impression. I won't be rushing back anytime soon.

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!

There are no lockers to store your personal items. They do have skating assistance for kids and adults but first come first serve. Parking is $10.
