Whether it\u2019s a trip with a little one to meet Mickey for the first time at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/p\/info-partner\/disney\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Disney theme park<\/a>, satisfying a movie buff\u2019s hunger to experience the big screen in the fast lane at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/things-to-do\/universal-studios-hollywood-tickets.a181787.activity-details\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Universal Studios<\/a>, or testing your bravery on the tallest of rides at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sixflags.com\/national\/new-2016\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Six Flags<\/a>, there\u2019s truly something for everyone!<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14882 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/CarouselRide.jpg\" alt=\"CarouselRide\" width=\"922\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/CarouselRide.jpg 922w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/CarouselRide-300x208.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/CarouselRide-291x202.jpg 291w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 922px) 100vw, 922px\" \/>\n<p>Another great thing about theme parks? They\u2019re often located in attraction-packed destinations, so if you want to squeeze in a little sightseeing, hit the beach or even stop by a national park or historical landmark, you\u2019ll likely find one nearby. Great options include <a href=\"http:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/inspire\/orlando-theme-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Orlando<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelocity.com\/Los-Angeles-Hotels.d178280.Travel-Guide-Hotels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Los Angeles<\/a> area, but don\u2019t forget unique favorite in between like Pennsylvania\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hersheypark.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hersheypark<\/a>, Ohio\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitkingsisland.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">King\u2019s Island<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cedarpoint.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cedar Point<\/a> and Missouri\u2019s nostalgia-inducing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.silverdollarcity.com\/theme-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Silver Dollar City<\/a>.
