Whether you want meet your favorite character, get up close and personal with exotic animals, or immerse yourself into your favorite movie, theme parks are always a hit with the family and many are easily reached by car or a short plane ride regardless of where you live.

Popular theme parks include:
- Disney World and Disney Land

In general, expect to pay about $100-$175 per person for tickets plus any multi-park, skip the line, and food package add-ons you want. Parking is also usually another $20-$$50. When possible, we highly recommend staying at an onsite hotel to save on parking and gain extra hours in park, among other perks.
