Antique Automobile Club of America Museum

Reviewed By dennis w - Severna Park, Maryland

Besides an extraordinary collection of old and unique cars, buses and motorcycles, there are exhibits on old diners, and gas stations. There a whole section on Tucker automobiles! Staff is mostly retired gentleman who volunteer their time. Extremely informative.
For children there are lots of hands on activities and a separated room with an extreme miniature railroad setup.

We were having brunch in the next town over on a sweltering day & phoned Michael on a lark, and he arranged for us to do the murder mystery 30 minutes later. It turned out to be the perfect diversion for three adults and three children ages 9-14. None of us had done an escape room before. Michael recommended the murder mystery, where you investigate a murder that actually occurred in the area in the 19th century. Michael is an engineer and he wired up the whole room (you can't tell though - except for the hidden electronics, there's nothing anachronistic) so it ends up being a multi-sensory experience, and you need to really explore and come up with creative ideas for how to solve each successive riddle. We solved it in 45 minutes with 4 clues (though I'm sure we could have done it in three in under the hour!). We're looking forward to returning for Three Mile Island and Houdini's Escape.

Hershey Gardens are beautiful. I would recommend going in the summer to experience it and all of its beauty.

Lots of flowers and they also have a butterfly sanctuary indoors. It is gorgeous. There are butterflies everywhere.

The grounds are well spaced and cared for. I would recommend going here.

Love going to this market early on Saturday morning as the vendors are arriving. At this time, when they aren't as busy, the farmers have time to talk to you about their products.

Took my husband for a surprise birthday tour on a Friday evening, where 6 of our friends met us at the Brewery. Took the 5$ tour first and it was very informative and interesting. We had several tastes along the way. Picked up a flight and something to eat, and settled in at a table to eat lamb, brisket and fries, sweet potato chips, Bahn mi. Chips were tasty but VERY salty. Everything else was good, but the brisket won hands down. Parking is limited although the new lot is large. Tasting room/food tables are large and noisy so be prepared for that.

I have been a repeat client of Gulien's Massage and Salt Room in Palmyra, PA for many years. The massage therapist, Eve, provides the best deep tissue massage I have ever had. Her professionalism and technique applying the right pressure to untangle the knots is superb. The spa is very clean and provides a calming and relaxing atmosphere. I have also tried the Salt Room when I had a sinus infection and having 3 treatments within 1 week seemed to alleviate the sinus pressure and shorten the length of the infection. I would highly recommend checking out their services.

Hershey Theatre

Reviewed By Richard B - New Cumberland, Pennsylvania

We went to see the performance of "Parkside Harmony" This performance was sold out. Parking was more than ample. Hershey Theater is a must place to see quality performances. It is a First rate theater. The inside of the theater is classic. Take the time to really look (and take pictures) of the art work and architecture that surrounds you. Seats are close together but comfortable. Bathrooms are down stairs. Check out their web site for additional information on shows. Located right off the square in Hershey, Pa.

There were five children and four adults in our group. We purchased our one day discount tickets at the Giant Supermarket on Friday afternoon. This ticket allowed us to get into the park Friday night at 6:30 until closing which was perfect! There were no lines for any of the rides. Came back Saturday morning, a bit crowded, but not too bad, stayed till about 2:00pm, left for an early dinner and got back to the park around 5:00 and stayed till closing, again no lines on the rides. The park is very clean and everything seems to be well maintained.
