Hershey's Chocolate World is an official brand experience and visitor's center that opened in…read moreHershey, Pennsylvania in June 1973. It was founded by the Hershey Company. Beginning in 1910, Hershey began to give tours of its chocolate factory to the public. Visitors walked through real production areas to see processes like bar molding, wrapping, and the depositing of Hershey Kiss chocolates. By the early 1970s, the public tours had become too crowded for the active manufacturing plant. Located next to Hersheypark, Hershey opened Chocolate World as an alternate visitor center for the public to learn about the manufacturing process as well as purchase chocolate products in the large retail shop. My family and I recently visited Hershey while we were visiting our cousins in Pennsylvania. My wife and I had both separately visited Hershey when we were children, but this was the first visit for our own children. After taking a tour around town with Hershey Trolley Works, we headed inside Chocolate World. We went straight for the Hershey Chocolate Tour, where the line moved very quickly. It's not a real tour of the Hershey Factory, but rather a simulated one that is family-friendly. Similar to an attraction at Disney World, visitors sit in omnimover-style cars that move continuously along a track through the simulated factory journey. Our sons loved seeing the anthropomorphic chocolate characters who teach visitors about the chocolate-making process. Afterwards, we headed to the retail shop area to grab some delicious chocolate treats to take with us on the road. And don't worry... there were plenty of free samples too! For any families looking to visit Hershey, we highly recommend making a delicious stop at Hershey's Chocolate World!

It takes them like 3 seconds to process what you're asking them. I saw 1 feeding another staff member candy while on the job right in front of me when they should be operating the ride. Another 1 made a lame joke about me cutting the line when I just went under the ropes and was the last one in line. Like, there was no one else around. The chocolate characters were just the chocolate candy's with faces on them to bring them to life. So strange. It felt like I was walking in some strange video game with poorly programmed NPCSs. The first 2 hours offer free parking but then charge $60.

A Fun Evening out and about around Hershey. A large group of…read moreus booked the Yokl Food tour for a Friday night and had a great time. The trolley is spacious and has a great sound system to connect to for a rocking ride. The co-founder/president rode the trolley with us during the second half of the tour, which increased the level of fun and engagement. On our tour we visited 4 places (which were different from what we were told when we booked): The Englewood, The Mill, Jo-Jo's in Hummelstown and Cubbies Creamery. The "tastes" at the Englewood and The Mill were very small and seemed to rush us through, especially at the Englewood. Cubbies Ice cream was tasty and featured a sampling of their 3 house favorites. The star of the tour was Jo-Jo's in Hummelstown! We were enthusiastically welcomed, shown to 4 tables, each set with a whole old world pizza, garlic knots, salad, and wings!   I was thoroughly impressed and then totally blown away by the deliciousness of the old world pizza.  Overall the trolley tour was a fun way to spend an evening together and a great addition to the Hershey area.  I do think for the price, a couple of the restaurants could have stepped up their game. I do recommend the Yokl Trolley tour. The Trolley can also be rented for a build your own tour around the area, which would be a fun time!

It's a great alternative to the much hyped Jason's Woods or Field of Screams, which are rather expensive. Blue Meadow Farms has just as good a hayride and I've got to say I really enjoyed the haunted maze, it was a lot of fun. Both together were like $12 or something close, definitely a fun evening. They've also got some great treats at the snack bar including some different varieties of homemade cider, I'd definitely recommend the place, I'm not sure what activities they have at the farm other than the Halloween stuff.

Heard while on the hay ride: "Well at least proceeds go to the firemen."…read more Oofah! We waited hours for a hayride that was cramped as hell. The people working there NEED an acting/improv class. They were pretty terrible. And there was a part of it that might have been a little racist...but the super drunk guy on my hayride made it COMPLETELY racist. They did play Hocus Pocus on a big screen while waiting...and I haven't seen that in a while. And they had food, so that was good.

If you're looking for an amazing experience with absolutely scrumptious food, history told with heart, and a chance to meet some of the most welcoming people in one city, Kendra's tours are for you.

Started with some drinks while we waited for others to arrive. Solid selection of fine wines and cocktails to choose from. Picked an old fashioned with redbreast - very good. Small hiccup with a missed drink order but that was quickly handled. Very friendly and polite waitress that evening, missed her name but would recommend her again. She had noticed a few of my family members including my wife were expecting babies so she brought out a few shirts as presents for them. Appetizers were tasty , along with the salad with the house dressing already on the table. Very fresh. I chose the "homemade lasagna challenge" if finished you earn a certificate! Which I did in fact finish. It's not a giant piece , it was good , maybe make it a bit bigger/ harder ? There was a little trouble with an entree being dumped but that was quickly re-fired in the kitchen and out very fast , no trouble at all, simply an accident. Dessert was the deconstructed version of a cannoli. Lots of cannoli pieces and dip. All in all it was a great night enjoyed, solid service , we will be back again soon.

Fresh bread w butter was provided. The place is unusual in that you must purchase a lodge membership in order to be able to order alcohol. The application for lodge membership to be potentially approved takes some time. None of my friends had this membership but one of them wanted to get it in the future: I do not need drinks to enjoy my time but I am still open to them. I try to be pickier about drinks because I feel inundated from them throughout life, The choices they have tend to be very mainstream Italian and I wasn't expecting too adventurous in this more remote area (compared to Philadelphia) and this isn't a place I would typically pick on my own, but they do the food well here. I wanted to try a dessert but nothing struck my fancy AND I was too full. I unregrettably ate about half My dish and took the rest home. Staff here is very friendly.

Caprese 10/10 I got the side portion, which was three huge slices of tomato and mozzarella. The tomato was super fresh and perfectly ripe- not too hard and not too soft. The mozzarella was fresh and delicious. The amount of oil and balsamic was perfect. Even though it was a side portion, it was definitely something that could be shared between two people, if you're trying to save room for your meal! Chicken parm 8/10 Chicken was tender and juicy. The breading had a good flavor and was fried super crunchy. Pasta was cooked perfectly, my coworker just wasn't a huge fan of the flavor of the red sauce, and how overly crunch the breading was, which is why he gave it an 8. Chicken piccata 9/10 Sauce was yummy. Risotto was delicious! Stuffed shells (Tuesday special) 9/10 Shells were cooked great. The sauce had a good flavor. The cheese was also a good flavored blend and kept its shape even when you cut the shell, I just personally would have liked it to be a touch more melty and gooey. I loved all the cheese on top too! Absolutely love that the entrees come with a glass of wine and a side salad.
