I recently had the opportunity of experiencing the Hershey area without my son and it totally changed my perspective!
Before, I thought of it as a destination close by where we could come and enjoy as a family, but being there without my family made me realize that Hershey is the perfect teen destination and here is why:
5 Reasons Why Hershey Is The Perfect Teen Destination
#1 Complimentary internet in the affiliated resorts helps with the teens obsession with computers, phones and tech gadgets in general.
#2 Hersheypark is such a great destination for teens to share! I walked through the park with our group and it was like seeing a sea of teens, randomly enjoying the park, calling each other so they wouldn’t miss the next ride! The new Triple Tour Attraction will certainly leave your teen bragging for having survived a 189’ drop!!! Wow!
I know you want to see it in action!!
#3 Zoo America offers special programs like the Premium Programs where at just $ 49.00 per person, you will enjoy behind the scenes animal experiences, like feeding, holding, and touching – what teen wouldn’t like to snap their picture touching an alligator or feeding an otter? Totally Instagram worth it too! The after hours experience is a must do for teens!
#4 The menu at Hersheypark is extremely teen friendly, especially when you talk about buying a cup with unlimited refills at no extra cost! My son would be in drink heaven, since most places charge an extra small fee for refills! Also their Famous Chill Kingsize Shake will surely leave your growing child satisfied! With 70+ food locations, your teen will be able to enjoy a different meal, every time you come to visit!
There are so many other food options outside of the park as well, look at the S’mores French Toast at the Hershey Grill! It is to die for!!
#5 I’ve never met a teen who doesn’t like candy! So you get to experience chocolate world where all of your favorites are together in the marketplace! They will literally feel like kids in a candy store!!
So many types of Hershey Kisses, oversized bars and candy boxes and they can make their own personalized candy bar with a wrapper they get to design, while the bar is in the production stage! How cool is that?
My son, who travels all the time, got super excited when I shared all this with him and told me he can’t wait to be back to experience all of it!!
Hersheypark admission allows you to walk to Chocolate World and visit the zoo, since they are all close to each other. I saw so many teens walking back and forth, enjoying the three attractions on the same day! Some of the activities mentioned above require an additional payment, so, for more information, check the website: HERSHEY

Trust me, you will be your teen’s fave, when you book a Hershey Trip!

Hershey Park is amazing. We have been there several times. We are looking to go back sometime this summer. A great weekend getaway
Nope, I haven’t been there! I would love to visit this place soon, looks amazing!
I have heard great things about Hershey Pennsylvania and have always wanted to go. There are rumors that you can smell chocolate throughout the entire town. 🙂
I haven’t ever been here before, but it does look fun. I can see how everyone, no matter their age, would have a blast.
Omg! I didn’t know Hershey is actually a city! How coooooolll! Sorry for my ignorance, I was not born in the US and a lot of things are new to me. Anyways, I just loved the new piece of info! 😉
How fun! I’ll have a teenager this summer (this momma is crying!), and this does look like the perfect place!
Hersheys is definitely a place I’ve been thinking about going for a little summer vacation. It looks so fun, and my teens would love it.
My daughter would love to visit Hershey and try out those towers. The zoo experience would be awesome too.
Not only does Hershey have kickass rides but they have s’mores French Toast too? You can sign me up! x
Those are some great reasons for teens to love Hershey, but I’m an adult and now I’m convinced that I have to go there! Looks like tons of fun!…and lots of chocolate. Yum!
This seems like so much fun for a teen! I don’t my husband would be all for it but my kid would really love it!
From the looks of it, Hershey would be perfect for anybody. I understand it’s a little harder to keep teens engaged. Thanks for all the awesome details.
These are all great reasons that Hershey is the perfect destination for teens. We have never been to Hershey before but it sounds amazing. The new Triple Tour Attraction would not be for me but my sons would love it. Zoo America would be more my style and creating your own candy bar. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
I have always wanted to visit! All of this looks like it would be so much fun & the food looks amazing.
This is amazing! I’ve never been here but it sounds amazing!! I’m sure my kids will love it here!!
My nieces will surely love it! They are have never been in Hershey it’s a perfect spot for them.
Oh wow, look at that ride! I think most theme parks are perfect for twins. I’ve never been to Hershey, but I would love to go one day.
I want to visit Hershey someday. It would be fun to go with the kids. Chocolate fan forever
This looks like a super fun place to take teens! So Instagram worthy since they are all on it. Plus the variety – food they love, rides they love…so much around to see and do…this sounds like a winner.
I have never been to Hershey before but now you made me want to go!! Forget the teens, I need an adult trip there!! LOL!
I don’t have teens yet but my kids all love Hershey! It’s a fun place, which we could go there more often.
I would love to go to Hershey. It sounds like a great place to go with the whole family. Sounds like they have something for everyone.
It would be amazing to go to Chocolate World. I would love to go explore Hershey.
I would love to go and explore Hershey with my teens. It would be amazing to be able to hold an owl like that. It looks like it was a great trip.
It is definitely on our summer travel wish list! It looks like a fun place to go.
Nowadays, Internet is always one of the top reasons why we choose to get to a place. I love the food here. Hershey seems to be a very fun destination for the entire family to visit!
I have always wanted to go here. It looks like a lot of fun too. I’m sure my girls would love it there as well.
That is so cool!! My husband and I honeymooned in the Poccino Mountains! WE made a detour one day to visit Hershey! What an fun place!!!
I have never been to Hershey, PA. This trip looks like one where every member of my family would have a great time.
Definitely teen friendly and every age friendly. Hershey Park is awesome.
I have always wanted to go. I am going to show this to my husband. His sister lives really close so maybe one day!
I think my favorite thing to do here would be to create my own candy bar! Where would I even start. I didn’t realize there was so much to do in Hershey Park.
I can see why this would be perfect for teens. Frankly, it’s perfect for everyone. I LOVE Hershey Park.
So let’s see. We have rides. We have delicious meals. We have Hershey’s Chocolate. Sounds like the perfect destination for ANYONE! WOOT!
I used to live within a days drive of Hershey and I still have not got there yet. I definitely need to check them out because they have chocolate, rides, and apparently animals too. This place looks amazing.
So much to see and do! Fun for everyone and the prices aren’t outrageous either.
