Tips from guest patterns
Actionable planning notes supported by multiple mentions. Confidence is mention-volume only — not a guarantee.
- Check the minimum age and your kids' scare tolerance — family fit feedback splits by age.
- Plan parking ahead — free lots across / nearby are commonly referenced; first-timers get turned around.
- Expect a no-deliberate-touch actor policy; still set group expectations if anyone is contact-sensitive.
- Double-check ticket date/night before you go — wrong-night purchases show up in support complaints.
