They’ve ranked the top theme park destinations around the U.S. to visit, taking into account innovative experiential elements, family accessibility, and memorable visitor experiences.
Here are Thinkwell’s Top 5 Summer Attractions:
1. PANDORA: DISNEY ORLANDO
Designed to fully immerse visitors in the land of Pandora (from the Avatar franchise), this unprecedented attraction features elements like a standout 156-foot-tall “floating mountain.”
2. VOLCANO BAY: UNIVERSAL ORLANDO
One of Orlando’s newest attractions features a digitized ride reservation system, allowing you to take in rides like Krakatau Aqua Coaster (which allows you to dip in and out of a 200 foot volcano), stress-free.
3. GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY MISSION: BREAKOUT!: DISNEY CALIFORNIA ADVENTURE
Set in the iconic Tower of Terror, this visual effect-laden ride combines comedy and adrenaline rushes for a new twist on an old classic. And, of course, it has an iconic soundtrack to match.
4. JUSTICE LEAGUE: BATTLE FOR METROPOLIS, SIX FLAGS MAGIC MOUNTAIN
A cutting-edge 3D attraction that lets guests join the iconic Justice League, battling alongside the DC heroes in an interactive, video-game-style mission against the Joker, combining immersive sets, physical effects, animated figures and 3D animation.
5. GHOST TOWN ALIVE, KNOTT’S BERRY FARM
Guests become honorary citizens of the town of Calico, immersed in an authentic western adventure complete with bandits, cowboys, robberies, even a good ol’ western hoedown. Like a live-action adventure game, guests complete tasks and become characters in the day-long story.
