    Great place shame about the queues

    Not for children

    This place has very little to offer for children under about 8-12 years old, especially in the winter. There is a small water play area in the summer, a small playground, and one ride in Minions area, but basically nothing else for children. There are...More

    Take it for what it is - a theme park

    Los Angeles is a very special place. Not for the city itself but for the endless possibilities it offers it's visitors. On the other hand it is, at least for me, a very shallow place - nevertheless it is extremely transparent about it: It is...More

    I do not know that. But with security issues now days you may need it or your Credit Card from the purchase. I would call them up directly before you go there. Good luck!
