    So we came here for my birthday as my wife surprised me. We drove up and right away you can see the tanks and acp etc. We walked in and met the staff. Everyone is a marine. They made that very clear. We then moved to a room where the guy gave us the talk. We then watched a 20 min video. We then met the lead guy for the tank and jumped right in. I drove the tank and my wife and friend sat behind. I drove two laps and honestly did real well. It was a great experience and recommend others to do it. I would come back for another go.

    I bought my husband the Commander Package for Christmas and we finally made our way out here a few weekends ago. 10/10 experience, we had SO MUCH FUN! We booked the 10am reservation because we know Florida gets hot so we wanted to beat it as much as possible. There was a safety briefing and option to add anything on in advance, but you still have the option to keep going or add on different experiences while you're out driving. Instead of going into combat mode for our third round my husband decided to let me drive a lap. The guide was great in helping us how to drive the tank and when to make turns. Would absolutely recommend this activity!

    My mom and I were supposed to go alligator hunting but the guide lost an arm about 10 days before our reservation. So we crushed a car!

    My mom and I were supposed to go alligator hunting but when the guide lost his arm a week before our reservation. This was the next best choice! Had a blast! Thanks - Oorah

    The other day my husband and I celebrated our 18th wedding anniversary , I seen a billboard for Tank America !! We had a blast (they also offer military discount) hubby and I met on the same ship 20 years ago! I totally recommend this place.

    This is a must do! What a great venture to give everyday people the opportunity to do what our military does! Everyone at Tank America was incredible! Beginning with John who followed up with me for almost 3 months while I was able to finally coordinate a date. He gave me the perfect itinerary for our family of 5, strongly recommend the full mile, even 2! Brandon was incredibly welcoming and funny! He gave us all the proper instructions to make sure we knew what we were doing and made us feel safe. Cameron was our guide for the ride, he was phenomenal!!! He made sure my son felt comfortable and confident throughout the entire drive and assured my 6 year old and I were safe (as passengers). My husband drove the other tank, while my other son was a passenger. The location is so well set up, organized and very clean! Gotta love our Marines! Strongly recommend bringing cash to leave a well earned tip for these veterans who served our country and for the commendable work they are doing at Tank America. Truly an unforgettable experience, we can't wait to come back!

    This was a pretty cool activity with friendly staff. The tanks were huge and was super fun watching them run over the cars. Bathrooms were super clean and the interior had an army vibe that elevated the venue. One of the employees explained to me how the tanks are able to be driven on regular roads because the they had been redesigned. She explained the cost and it was just a pleasure to have such an informative conversation. They close the venue for private events and let me just say, this is a cool thing to do.

    WTF do I really have to say... you get to drive a f'n tank!!!!! For real a tank! What a great time this was. The entire staff was amazing! These marines know how to make sure you have a good time and they are all super nice, accommodating, and too good of salespeople. They know how to get your money and they aint shy about it, lol. But in the end it was worth it. Its an experience most will never get to do. I wish it were cheaper so i could go back and do it again. Did i mention you actually drive a flipping tank!

    Absolutely awesome- this was an incredibly awesome experience. My husband booked this for our sons birthday, and we went with three adults and one child. The staff was incredibly welcoming, and being the only woman of the group my expectations were not super high about the whole experience. our guides were Amelia and Justin, and it was an absolute blast! There is about a 30 minute "debriefing" where you have a fun introduction to the experience, the course, the history and mechanics of the fleet of tanks, and the driver gets the nuts and bolts on how to drive the tank. We then went out, and it was easy to get in and out of the passenger area of the tank, and my husband had an absolute blast driving the tank. They have video footage of the entire experience from all angles and my husband had me drive the last lap and it was one of the coolest things I've ever done. The guides were amazing, kind and patient and you can just tell that everyone there loves their job and what they are doing. We will definitely do this again, and I highly recommend it for anyone who is at all interested in the military or who just wants to drive a tank! The history of the tanks was really interesting, and I couldn't help but think of all of the servicemen and women who were in the same vehicle under very different circumstances, and have a deep respect for those soldiers. A definite must do for any family traveling to the Orlando area!

    A group of us came to Tank America to celebrate a bachelor party. The groom was our driver and several members of our party rode as passengers. Kevin and Sean were awesome! Kevin was super friendly and informative. I learned a lot from him. Sean was the tank commander and everyone had a great time with him as well. They really took their time with us, made sure we got lots of pictures, and encouraged everyone to have lots of fun. One of our group members even decided to do a lap of his own as a driver! Everyone had a really good time. Our drivers were a bit dirty after their laps so we decided to skip laser tag. The laser tag looked like a lot of fun though so I'd love to go back to try it. If you want a unique experience that's fun for a group, you should definitely check out Tank America!

    Hello. How old you have to be to drive a tank?

    Thomas, Thank you for reaching out to us, 16 year old and up to drive and passengers can be any age just need to be 55 inch tall.… 

    How long is the tank driving experience? Do you get a good amount of driving time?

    Hi Katherine! The tank driving experience is about 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Drive time varies based on which package you purchase, but on average, the drive time is just under 1/2 hour.

We first started doing this in magical midway, but when that felt too rickety and unsafe, we started looking for other parks, and that's when we found fun spot! We would go multiple times a year every year when we were younger and always took advantage of the anniversary ticket prices. It's been a while since we've gone, but it would definitely be another fun trip with nostalgia .

I had heard from locals that it's a great local option over the big theme parks. Fun Spot was pretty great, for what it was. Free parking, free admission if you don't plan on riding rides, also a discounted adult pass if you only are going on rides with your kid who is too young to ride alone. The whole place was small, maybe the area of a handful of city blocks. And on the Sunday afternoon when we went, the place was quiet enough that we never waited more than a few minutes to get onto a ride. As we were only there for a couple hours, the cashier recommended the 4 ride pass for my kids, and the companion pass for me. But if one were to spend more hours there, buying the day pass online for $59.95 is quite a bargain. Not all rides were open, but the "big" rides that most kids want (the roller coasters and the go carts) were open. My daughter, who is not a big roller coaster fan, had a harder time finding kiddie rides that she actually wanted to go on, and she watched the go carts and didn't even want to try those with me driving. However, the place was small enough that I felt fine leaving my 10 year old son to go on rides by himself while I went on the Ferris wheel or the merry go round with my 8 year old. There are a bunch of food options available throughout the park. They were definitely more affordable than Disney prices! Most of the places offered souvenir cups with discounted refills, but there were also water stations set up throughout with free cups. I'd definitely come back if I had a few hours to burn and the kids didn't want to go swimming. Hopefully at some point, my daughter will change her mind about roller coasters, though!

The setup is amazing, super clean, and well-organized, and the staff always makes sure everyone feels safe while still having tons of fun. Beyond the waterpark, they do such a great job hosting special events -- there's always something new and exciting happening. I definitely recommend checking their event calendar often because they plan the most creative, family-friendly activities throughout the year. It's also such a flexible and beautiful space -- whether you're spending the day on the water, grabbing snacks, or relaxing while the kids play, it's the perfect place to enjoy time together as a family.

Kids had a great time, especially sliding into the lake from the inflatables. My only complaint is the price point. We paid $75 for two kids to do the climbing tower & 45 minutes on the inflatables. A 45 minute session was definitely not enough for them. Next time, we will opt for two sessions I guess...It would be great if they had a summer pass, but from what I can tell, season passes are all sold out. Even being able to buy a 5 or 10 session pass at a discounted rate would be great.

My very favorite ride in the planet is the tilt a whirl and before getting our wristbands were specifically asked if it was running. It starts at 6pm on weeknights.

This is a short review because I didn't get the chance to experience everything Icon Park has to offer. However, based on my first impression alone, I can definitely say I'll be back. It was filled with excitement for both children and adults, and I'm looking forward to exploring it even more on my next visit.

All three of these together took up about two hours and then we were able to go to Cafe tu tu tango to get a bite to eat. This was a great half day experience while we were visiting Orlando. There was a parking garage and parking was super easy. By that time we left around 8:30 PM there were so many cars, but when we first got there at about 5 PM there were tons of spots. They do have parking spots you can pay for in the lower levels so it seems like if you're willing to pay there will always be parking. If you want free parking, you need to go earlier because this seems to be popular for nightlife. I always appreciate when there's so many attractions together that you can walk to. This place has quite a few restaurants, some shops and the attractions all in a contained area. It was very clean and when we came, there was a huge police presence, because apparently a couple weeks before there was hundreds of teenagers that descended to the area and fought. So the place was doing a really good job making sure that everything was safe. This is a place for both families and non-families alike.

If this had been our first Disney cruise, I'm not sure that I would rush out and do another one, truth be told. On our previous cruises, everyone we encountered on the staff, from the Check In crew at the port to the stewards, to the random Cast Members we would come across around the ship, was friendly and welcoming. Here the staff seemed harried and tired, like we caught them at the end of a very tough shift and they had nothing left to give. While the food was still excellent, the service was not at the same level as our previous cruises. We simply adored our dining teams on the Magic and the Dream; taking pictures with them at the end of the cruise. This time, with Jonathan and Carlos, it was very transactional. There was no connection or anything engaging with the team. They were certainly pleasant but the Disney magic was lacking. Our room steward, Arawan, was efficient, but I only ever saw him twice: Shortly after we boarded and the last night of the cruise when we were preparing our luggage for disembarkation. He certainly kept the room clean, so I do appreciate that! However I noticed some things, maintenance-wise in the room that displayed a lack of Disney's attention to detail, such as some rust spots in the bathroom. I would expect that from Norwegian, but definitely not from Disney. One night at the hot tub there was a guy openly vaping and staff only came over to tell him the hot tub was closing, not that he could not smoke in this area of the boat. At some of the trivias in the various entertainment venues, we either got inundated with offers for drinks or completely ignored, there was no in-between! In addition, staff broke my husband's luggage. Points to them for trying to fix it and sending an apology basket, but now that we are back on land, he has to spend time and energy filing a claim for the damage and going through that whole process. Hopefully we recapture the magic on our next Disney cruise, as the Fantasy is my least favorite of our cruises so far.

While each land looks amazing, I found myself feeling like the biggest highlight by far was Super Nintendo World. Walking through the Warp Pipe into the Mushroom Kingdom is unforgettable. The music, colors, Mario Kart, Yoshi's Adventure, and Donkey Kong Country make it feel like you've stepped inside a real Nintendo game. My biggest disappointment is that Nintendo didn't get the entire park. Imagine if Epic Universe had been built completely around Nintendo with multiple themed worlds: Mushroom Kingdom - Mario, Peach's Castle, Mario Kart, Toad Town, and Rainbow Road. Yoshi's Island - A colorful family land filled with dinosaurs, adventure trails, and unique rides. Donkey Kong Country - A huge jungle packed with temples, waterfalls, mine carts, and thrilling attractions. Bowser's Kingdom - A massive volcanic world with Bowser's Castle, lava-filled rides, and epic battles. Luigi's Mansion - A haunted land with ghosts, puzzles, special effects, and a state-of-the-art dark ride. Nintendo has enough characters and games to fill an entire theme park. Instead, it only occupies one section of Epic Universe. For me, the park itself feels a bit small, and outside of Nintendo there wasn't another land that left the same lasting impression. Super Nintendo World is what makes Epic Universe worth visiting, and I honestly believe Universal missed an opportunity by not making the entire park a Nintendo park. Epic Universe is still a great park, but Super Nintendo World completely steals the show. If Universal ever expands Nintendo into multiple worlds--including Yoshi's Island, Bowser's Kingdom, Luigi's Mansion, Zelda, Pokémon, Kirby, and Metroid--it could become the greatest video game theme park ever created

Isle of Berk had a water shooter ride that ended up being a favorite of the dudes in my family.
