Took a group of 28 Girl Scouts and adults. We enjoyed it but would have liked a little more direction. We couldn't find some clues and staff couldn't help. We did the Chocolate Lab which was nice.

I really enjoyed the life history of the Hershey story. How Mr. Hershey shared his dream, how he made it a reality, with little education.

Lots of great information here. You get to see and read a lot about Milton Hershey at the numerous glass cases housing various mementos and artifacts.

We enjoyed the "make your own Hershey Bar" and the nearby attractions in the shop. The ride were good fun, and the zoo was a nice unexpected break.
We dove 8 hours to get here.
If you have other closer choices for a zoo or amusement park, you might be better off. Not that there is anything wrong with the...

This museum was great. Took a free shuttle from Chocolate World. Went on a Sunday and was very quiet. Loved it that way. It was really informative learning about Milton Hershey's life. Great little gem. Went to Cafe Zooka for a fabulous chocolate tasting. It was great. Would highly recommend.
