Appreciate this place so much more after going to gilroy gardens where wait times were ridiculous for some rides (over1hr before we gave up) & parking was $25. Here wait times are minimal (0-10min), rides are age appropriate for my toddler (only 1 she can't ride yet), and right by the zoo so we usually combine the 2 places. The playground area is usually closed on less busy days (no staff) but my kiddo finally went and she loved it, went again & again. The train is closed often too which stinks bc she loves trains. Parking is free bc it's in William Land park. Might have to walk a bit but better than Gilroy where you have to pay $25 AND walk a lot to get to your car. Face painting available for $15. Food available but we haven't ever bought. Overall good for littles. Tickets are affordable ($18 adults, $10 seniors, $25 kid, under 34" free, $90 season pass). A bit hot on the hot days bc we're in sac but more shade & breeze than expected. Lots of sitting areas. Small and has limited rides but my kiddo still enjoys spending about 2hrs each time. read more

Standing in line to watch employees move between rides is utterly ridiculous. If you are that strapped for revenue, maybe you should either sell or think about more efficient management. Very disappointing! read more

My mom use to bring me and my brothers here as small children. Some of the best childhood memories. I have been craving their corndogs. I finished a round of golf and walked there. Things have changed, u have to pay to enter but I believe the rides are included. Before there was no admission fee but paid for ride tickets. I guess it balances out. There was a long line, prices are very reasonable. Corn Dog Was warm but not hot. It was disappointing. Nothing better than a hot corn dog. The experience priceless. Amendment: U have a valid point about very hot corn dogs, may burn mouth of a little kid. Changing rate to a 5. read more

I had high hopes for this place! Haven't been since I was a little kid in the 90's. I immediately noticed the large western(?) playground/table area (right side of entrance) that was blocked off with caution tape. Then 2 of the rides weren't running. My three year old son favored the carriage cars and while I rode with him I couldn't help but think how easily the LOCAL families of owners could improve this place. Everything looks like it needs a little elbow grease and fresh paint. Go to hobby lobby or somewhere to get outdoor yard decor, like little animals or butterflies to place around the car ride tracks. Putting the miniature dinosaurs was a start... but it's basically a track around a few plants and dirt. It could be so cute for hardly any money. I ADORE that we have this place still running in Sacramento but it all looks worn down and it feels like the owners don't really care to put a little extra money towards a facelift. read more

underland is such a wonderful place for families with young children. It has been a beloved part of the community for many years, and I still remember bringing my own kids here when they were little. Beautifully located in William Land Park, it offers a fun, safe, and welcoming environment for children and families to enjoy together. The rides are perfect for younger kids, and the park is well-maintained and family-friendly. If you're looking for a great day out with the kids, I highly recommend giving Funderland Amusement Park a try! read more

This was one of the worst experiences I've had at a family entertainment center in a long time. It's especially disappointing because I used to come here all the time as a child and have so many great memories. I was excited to bring my nieces and my own child, but it's clear this place has gone downhill. I understand the policy of not allowing outside food or drinks, even if I don't necessarily agree with it. What I don't understand is the complete lack of customer service. I've worked in food service before, so I know how overwhelming it can get during a rush. However, there was absolutely no organized system for keeping track of orders. Customers were left guessing whose food belonged to whom. The older woman working the food stand was also incredibly rude from the beginning and she seemed to be racially profiling us. To begin with, she acted like she couldn't understand us while we were placing order. Just because I'm a different race (Asian), I can speak English clearly and properly. My mom and I placed separate orders. While I stayed with the kids, my mom picked up the food I had ordered because it was ready first. Her own order never came out. When I asked about it, the employee insisted my mom had already received her food simply because she was eating the meal I had purchased. She then sarcastically asked, "What is your mom eating if she didn't get her food?" I explained that my mom was eating the food I bought while waiting for her own order, and I responded, "Is she not allowed to eat the food I paid for while she waits for hers?" Instead of acknowledging the mistake or trying to help, the employee continued to argue with us. There was no apology, no attempt to figure out what happened, and no professionalism whatsoever. She even was talking bad about me when I walked away to her peers in front of my husband who was ordering a drink at the time. He isn't Asian, so she didn't know he was with us while she was doing so. I spoke to the manager about this situation and it didn't seem like he spoke to her about this situation, even after the way she treated us. She still continued to work the cashier stand. I understand the lack of staff, but I disagree with having a rude employee working the cashier stand where she interacts with customers. I spent my money to bring my family here, expecting a fun day making memories with my child and nieces. Instead, we were met with disorganization, rude employees, and poor customer service. Sadly, this place is nothing like it used to be. If I could give this place 0 stars, I absolutely would. Unless management seriously improves both their employees customer service and the way they handle food orders, I won't be returning, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for an enjoyable family outing. read more

My kids (aged 6 and 4) had a great morning here. We got here just when they opened at 10am and for the first two hours it wasn't hot or crowded. We got to do all the rides with minimal wait. The swings and the roller coaster in particular were a lot of fun. They also had some pretty reasonably priced popcorn ($5 for a large) and a face painter ($15 per design) which my kids loved. Admission was a bit pricey since the adults were charged too, so for a family of 4 it was over $80, but the wristbands allow for all day play. Come early to get parking! read more

Great park tough I don't fit on a lot of the rides and the train was down for maintenance but I walked around this park and went on the carousel five times and the staff was great so I will come back again. read more

Such a totally cute place and great for kiddos 2-10! There was a recent mandate banning all outside food and drinks including water bottles. That was huge shocker but they have water at the concession stand and fountains around the park. The rides were pretty good and seemed maintained. I love that they have food sweet and savory. I only wish the fries were made to order because they are pre-cooked and sit in a warmer with the churros....which I did have along with the nachos. Good but nothing spectacular and what I'd expect from carnival type food. I did see someone order funnel cake and I must try the next time I'm there! read more

Make sure to call before going and ask if all the rides are working because they maybe doing maintenance on some of the favorite rides

A solid 3. Not great but not the worst if you're prepared after reading reviews. Understaffed. Difficult parking. Long line to get in. Frequently broken rides. Overpriced for what you get, but fun enough for a kindergartner. read more

My daughter and I went here for a birthday party. We had not been here before so it was nice to go somewhere new. Plus it was a beautiful day to enjoy some fun outside. When we walked up there was no line which was nice and you could see some fun happening behind the gates. At the front there was a handmade sign that said no outside food and in smaller print no water bottles. The employees at the front greeted us for checkin and the next thing they said to me was no outside food and no water bottles. I understand that they want to sell the carnival food they serve which is fine however I don't understand the no water bottle policy. My child brings her reusable water bottle everywhere with her and with the amount of water she drinks I would still have to buy water to refill it. Inside the park it was clean and there were 8 rides running and one (the roller coaster) was out of commission. Out of the 8 available my two and a half year old could ride 5 of them which was great. The lines weren't too long and each attendant was pleasant at the entrance of the rides. There are a few little pay to play interactions in the middle of the park and my daughter loved the fact she could get her face painted. The party area was nicely shaded and off to the side away from the busy park goers. It looked like they have 4-5 party areas (I couldn't tell if the 4th one was multiple areas or if it's one big space) For being a kiddy party area it was very clean and well maintained. I cannot comment on the food they sell because we were still full from the pizza that was ordered with the party package. Everything looked good and the pizza wasn't bad. One of the other parents got a soda and it was huge for a large. One other thing to note is the restrooms are outside the main gates unless you want to use a porta potty. To my surprise they were very clean. Overall this is a great place for littles to go on rides and hang with friends. I give it four stars because of the no water bottle policy on a handwritten sign. read more

Funderland Amusement Park - Stationary car - Amusement Parks Near Me - Sacramento, California

Such a fun place! Rides are more geared towards elementary kids and younger. We went on a weekday and there was barely any lines. The only time there was a line was to just wait for the next loading. Funderland is in Land Park which means there's a lot of trees and a lot of shade. We went when it was 96 degrees and it wasn't that hot since there was a lot of shade. The kids went on every ride except Squirrelly whirl and flying dragon since they needed an adult to go with them. The teacups were closed. Oscar the fisher had a MAXIMUM height restriction of 42 in so we couldn't go on that one. Their favorite was the Wild Stagecoach (the kids loved going backwards!) and the Red Baron planes. We were there for 3 hours and they went on 13 rides. They went on each ride 2-3 times. Different rides have different age and height restrictions so look on the website in advance and plan accordingly. The best height to go with kids that are more independent would be over 42" since they'll be able to go alone. Most rides will require 42" and under to have an an adult to go with them. read more

We drove to Sacramento on a whim and wanted to do something with the kids, we've done the zoo and fairytale land in the past but my kids begged to do Funderland. My kids are older, 12 & 7, so I had somewhat low expectations thinking they would be too big for the park, but man did they have fun. We literally opened and closed the place. It's kind of a smaller sized park and I loved that they got to run all over the place, back and forth between rides! And seriously, shout out to all the amazing workers, specifically the gentleman who took the time to know my daughter's name and say hi to her or rizz her up some whenever he'd see her. It was very cool. Ella says hi! read more

Funderland Amusement Park - Amusement Parks Near Me - Sacramento, California

I would never give my business to this place. They did a piss poor job of managing their own 80th Anniversary event (2/6/2026). Hundreds of families with their distraught children waiting to either get into the park or buy their promotional season passes. There were people waiting in line for over 6 hours but got turned away because the park is closing. This company then decided to remove their Instagram and Facebook posts of this event due to hundreds of complaints about our horrifying experience. A park that is supposed to bring joy to kids and families but didn't give a damn about putting their customers in line for over hours with kid melting or melted down. I would rather give my money and patron the zoo or Fairytale town than to give this place a penny. Then again, this place should just be like a penny, disappear from existence. read more

My kids absolutely love Funderland. It is a great outdoor amusement park where they are able to socially play. They love riding on the train, the buggies, the airplane, and the carousel. There is a new addition of an obstacle course with a big slide that they enjoy. Sadly, the park is closed until February. read more

I've been to this place with my kids a couple of times and thought to bring my youngest for an afternoon of fun. When I looked online, prices were $10, but when I got the the gate, the man charged us $68! He said $18 for adults- mind you I just had knee surgery and can't bend my knee enough to even sit on these rides, & $25 per kid (2yo & 9yo) , even the people behind me in line yelled out, "DID HE SAY $68!!!!" As he was just as surprised as I was. Its ridiculous! After we paid, the man says, they can ride 7 of the rides, 3 are broken inc the roller coaster. I just feel as though this information should have been ran by me before I swiped my card, but okay, moving on. If you've been to funderland, you know the rides are over 25 years old. & NO they don't have any new rides! Yes, many are broken which holds up the lines. & as the reviews state, yes, the food is very expensive with their $9 corn dogs . This place will not be open for another 25 years with these high ass prices and these old ass rides! There are PLENTY of places to go & have a good time for your money! read more

We came here for a birthday party and my kids had so much fun. $17pp for unlimited fun. This place isn't big which is kind of nice. For a Sunday, it wasn't super busy so we hardly had to wait in any lines. My youngest, 5, was tall enough for all the rides and my oldest, 7, was too tall for 1 ride. Adults were able to go on some of the rides. I rode the roller coaster, the tea cup, the swing, the carousel, and the train. My kids didn't want to leave. We stayed long after the birthday party was over. read more

What a waste of money, most rides broken or in very very poor condition. General admission pricing meaning that adults have to pay just to get in the place regardless of if they ride anything. Don't even think of eating $9 for a corn dog $4 for a bottle of water and they won't even let you bring water bottles in this place. Literally you can do everything in about 20 mins and then you're done. read more

I stumbled upon this place online looking for somewhere to take our little one to, and I am so glad I did. This was such a fun spot for our 7 year old. I am not sure if kids over let's say 10 would be into it, but it was perfect for our age group. Once you buy entrance tickets kids can ride the rides as many times as they want. There's some food/drink options, but not a ton. They had a woman doing facepaint which is a dream for a 7 year old. It's a great place to kill a few hours. They have party areas, I could imagine a birthday party would be fun here. The park isn't too large, it's a nice size for small kids. The bathrooms aren't great, there's dark park like ones or porto potties, so neither are great options. Will definitely be back. read more

This place has been a childhood staple since the 40's, and it appears like it could use lots of help, so if anyone knows how to do fundraising and PR... The park needs a refurb in a big way. The train that goes around the park needs a new battery because the one that powers the train now has to be plugged in to charge after once around. It doesn't have the oomph enough to even make it twice around the park without being charged. The concession building burned down a few years ago so now they have a food trailer. It would be nice if they could have a building again. Currently, they have Por-A-Let potties inside the park and it would be a good thing if they could have actual working, plumbed bathrooms inside the park. The rides are old and some of them have to be evenly filled with riders so it's all balanced or the rides creak and don't run properly. Some rides barely work. On a recent visit, the airplane ride wouldn't go up and down, only around & around and the dragon roller coaster, the star of the show, wasn't working at all. The buggies break down and sometimes workers have to push them back to the boarding area. I miss what this park used to be. Maybe it's always been a broken down mess & I just didn't notice until recently. I don't remember it being this bad when I brought my kids here, but now I'm bringing the grands & it's just getting really run down. I hope there is some way to help it get what it needs and become really great like it used to be. It's an iconic space. It's just in a rough patch. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would! We were racially profiled by 2 employees.I went today right when they opened and was in line for The Flying Dragon with my 2 year old mind you right infront of me there were way smaller (white) kids waiting in line they aren't supposed to be allowed on the ride but the worker he was a young white guy and he let them all in no problem didn't even check their height once it came to me & my child we are (hispanic) he told me "let me check her height,shes too short" like huh? he didn't let us on but he let the wayyy smaller kids get on? so I left and went to get some food a mid 40s white woman was working I was in line like for a good 15min and the people in front of me got their food when it was my turn she said "I dont have anything prepared" but she literally had fries ready right there? then she said "theres nothing thats only for the combos" so I said "then what do you have prepare?" she just shrugged her shoulders and ignored me! so I just walked away never coming back here again this place has disgusting workers read more

I was fat shamed today for the first time in my life! A person has to weigh no more than 175 lbs to ride the carousel because apparently, if you're 176.4, you're a FATTY! Which is exactly what I cried out as I was escorted off the wooden stallion I had just mounted. Don't they know I "IDENTFY" as 175? The audacity!!! Please note the sarcasm. We had a wonderful time. I felt the food was overpriced, but other than that, no complaints. I can't believe this place was built in 1975 read more

We took my daughter for the first time to attend a birthday. We were pleasantly surprised how cool this little amusement park for small kids is. My daughter is 3 and she got to ride 8/10 rides there. Her favorite was the train that takes you around the park. There is also a food cart, face painter, and shop inside. This is a nice place to take your toddlers/small kids to. The only challenging thing is parking. read more

Funderland amusement park offers a cozy and charming atmosphere, perfect for young children. Its compact size makes it easy to navigate, ensuring little ones won't get tired too quickly. The highlight for my 4-year-old was definitely the train rides, which was dotted with tiny dinosaurs along the route, sparking her imagination and excitement. The lines were short and moved quickly. There weren't many staff, but they alternated back and forth between the different rides to allow us the opportunity to try all the rides. There was a minor inconvenience regarding discounts. Signs advertised a 10% discount for season pass holders at the food stand, and when I told the staff I was a season pass holder she ignored me. I repeated again I was a season pass holder, and if she could apply the discount, she didn't respond to me. She then told me my total, and I asked her again if I received the 10% off since I am a season pass holder? She finally told me their system is old and outdated and doesn't allow them to provide any discounts. I would only be able to get discounts if or when their system is ever updated. Overall, Funderland is a cute destination for families with young children, offering a memorable day of amusement and play. I would recommend just bringing your own snacks and beverages. read more

This place is a scam. It's $25 for kids and $18 for adults (to watch your kids). If you can't ride or don't want to ride any of their attractions, it doesn't matter. $86 for a family of four is absolute robbery when there isn't enough attractions to justify this absurd cost. The "amusement park" now has a no food or drinks policy. The only thing you can bring is an empty water bottle. They must really be struggling to force people to buy their mediocre food. I spent $18 on myself to watch my kids. Avoid this place at all costs. read more

Funderland broke my boys heart. Got measured at the gate and he was 37 in. tall. Went to get on rides and he measured 34 in. talk and wasn't allowed on most of them. I got my money back and left because I didn't pay $43 to ride teacups and carousels all day, but my kid was absolutely distraught over the dragon. We went to fairy tail town and he measured 37 inches. read more

First of all, even disneyland let's you take in waterbottles should be able to have our own waters especially on s hot day 2nd maybe you guys should have all the rides running for the money $$ you charge, $20 is quite expensive especially if you're going as a big family. Add some fun attractions, these kids dont stay little to ride those fishes. read more

Good for little kids but not in the heat as they don't allow outside food and drinks. This is not okay for a place that is for kids as they have limited poor food choices there to purchase read more

I wouldn't even give this place ONE star! Here on a holiday weekend (friday) and half the rides don't have operators and the one Rollercoaster is "closed for maintenance ". Worse amusement park ever! Just spent $25 for grandson and $20 for us. Such a huge rip off. PLUS so ridiculous that they won't let you bring your EMPTY water bottles inside. This place is such a waste of time and money! Don't bother!!!!! read more

had a great experience and a good change of scenery . would come back again was absolutely wonderful

Nice place for little kids but very small the nice thing is there is a zoo across the street so you can spend some times over there too.

Super cute place with such great potential, used to be one of my favorite places as a child, but to be honest with as much as they're charging for entrance fee ($61 2 adults, 1 child) and majority of their rides are either broken, breaking or still closed and taped off (the BEST Flying dragon roller coaster ever ). Place is real old and outdated. Crazy Tea cups feel like they're going to roll off with every turn. And the little small part that's not even on their park maps is a death trap. Their slide doesn't even slide lol my son had to use his hands and feet to go down. 6 out of 10 only because their ducks game and face painting lady are sweet and the best face painter I've ever seen read more

Kids enjoyed the rides but what a monopoly they have. Did paid big bucks for kids day party but they still charged grandparents 10 bucks to come and sit.only nasty Porto potty available. They don't allow outside foods, only there own low quality pizza.do better For hard working parents and families. . read more

My extended family had a great time with our kids here! The kids' ages are 2, 3, and 6. Each child had a lot of fun! I would say the ideal age for this park is 2-7 years old. Kids older than 7: there are still several rides for them as well. The rides are unlimited once you pay the entry fee. The lines for the rides are short, if there's even a line at all. I liked that this amusement park is small, and the rides are mostly ride-able by most little kids. There was one ride that can't have anyone over 42" tall but most of the others were open to little and big kids alike. A couple of rides you have to be 42" or tal Food situation: bring snacks and drinks!!! They have a food stand with a small selection of savory and sweet items you can buy- such as corn dogs, hot dogs, nuggets, fries, funnel cake, cotton candy, snow cones. Apple Pay accepted. Bathroom situation: There are port a potties inside, by the food stand. I didn't use them but there are also real toilets in a small building just outside (to the side) of the entrance -- there is no soap in there, so you can walk back into Funderland to wash your hands bc the hand washing stations by the port a potties have soap. read more

This place is small, old and clean. They have food such as; corn dog, chicken nuggets, nachos and hotdogs, and drinks. The wrist band is good for all day unlimited rides. We had a blast and can't wait to come back. My kids went on rides multiple times without having to wait at all sometimes. They were sad when we left. Funderland has an octopus ride that is only for kids smaller than 42inches (interesting). They a have roller coaster perfect for small children. The operators at each ride are super nice, friendly and chill. They make sure all kids are following safety rules and they are watching the children at all times. It felt super safe inside the park and in each ride as well. Thank you! read more

Super cute! We took a 3 year old and 4 year old, and it was perfect for them. Parking was easy; we lucked out and got a street spot right out front. No charge. There several rides and we easily occupied 3 hours. Lines were pretty short and they never had to wait more than 2 cycles. They particularly loved the dragon roller coaster and the teacups. Employees did a fine job but they ranged from enthusiastic to extremely bored. Didn't really bother me. Minus 1 star for limited food options and no water. The concession stand literally didn't have water on tap or bottled water (they said their shipment didn't come in). read more

This was a terrible experience for my daughter's 3rd birthday. We got there today at 11. Half of the rides were closed. My daughter wasn't able to get on get on half of the rides, which is understandable for safety reasons but would've loved to be informed if the height requirements before booking the party. Also it seemed the the requirements changed depending on who was operating the rides. We went to use our vouchers for the from the party package. One was for a snow cone and the other was for cotton candy. For the snow cone voucher we had to settle for a different flavor than my daughter wanted as the one she wanted was out. For the cotton candy voucher we're initially told there was no more except when we showed the voucher then some cotton candy was able to be made. All in all some things were more of an inconvenience but for a $400 party I expected to have a better experience overall. The only upside is that my daughter was not old enough to realize just how many things were going wrong. read more
