Reviews for SeaWorld Orlando

Took my 16 year old son here for the first time. I haven't been here in years and thought that SeaWorld would be a good introduction to theme parks. First, the good stuff! - Expedition Quest, such an awesome ride!! It was so much fun and was the highlight of our trip. Hit this one early in the morning. We came back in the afternoon, and the wait was like 65 minutes. NOTE: If you have a bag of ANY KIND, you must rent a locker, you cannot bring it on with you! Also, SeaWorld mentions a lot about height for the ride but not weight. The seats are narrow, and the seat belt only goes so far. I would say, if you are 300lbs + double check before riding. - Arctic Experience, so much fun stuff to see! Can really get up close to see Beluga Whales, Walruses (in the morning, trainers do tricks with them), penguins, and so much more! Plus, in the heat of the day, it's the best place to cool off! - Shark Encounter, since my son loves sharks, this was a highlight for him! He loved going through the tunnel, seeing hammerhead sharks, sand sharks, etc. He even saw Shark teeth, which he thought was super cool! We didn't go on any roller-coaster rides since that is not what we are into. If you are, you have plenty of choices to choose from. If you go in the heat of the day, cool off on one of two water rides - Journey to Atlantis, for example. I have to say, though, I love seeing the sea life here, SeaWorld seems to have gone the way of Disney and Universal. It is a cashless park now and the price of everything is expensive. The tickets were a fair price, better than the other two parks for sure! But there were things that really didn't make me a happy customer: - Park Hours, SeaWorld opens at 9am, everything else, 10am - Paper Maps, you must get one at the entrance if you want one. Other than that, SeaWorld is pushing to use the map on their app, and mine had moments it did not want to cooperate, and we circled a bit trying to find things. I prefer old school, some like the new, it's up to each individual. - Refillable Souvenir Cup, this seemed like an awesome deal, even though the cup was $20.00. When I went to pay, the price showed $28.00 and change. I asked the employee, "Hey, why is the price up to almost $29.00?" He stated that was tax and a surcharge for using a credit card. Since SeaWorld is cashless, I had no choice but to use my credit card. Normally, I would have handed the cup back and left, but my son was really excited about the cup. Needless to say, that was his souvenir. - Shark Dining Experience, my son LOVES sharks, and I knew he would love the experience. The employees were great, Greg, our waiter was awesome, and the sharks did not disappoint! What did disappoint, though, was the food, especially for the price!! We went with the cheapest we could - I got the Guacamole Turkey Burger Sliders (see pic included), and my son got the Cajun Chicken Tacos. My son liked his tacos, only three for a teenager, but they came with fries and cost $30.00. My sliders were beyond bland, and so was the guacamole. For $30.00, I got 2, yes, 2, bland sliders with fries. I ordered water, and my son got sweet tea, and that was $4.19, and it wasn't even fresh made! Our total bill today, with the tip, came to $82.00!! I am all about the experience, and my son loved it, but in the future, we will avoid this place. Just was not worth the money. - Locker Rental, I didn't appreciate having to spend $4.00 to tent a locker for less than 2 hours to spend less than 3 minutes on a ride to hold my small cross bag. Especially when I see other ladies going on that didn't have to and instead placed their items in small cubby holes. - Gift Shops, everything is just flat-out expensive, no other way to say it. All in all, if you save up money for this trip and love sea life, you will enjoy it! There are plenty of things to see, rides to experience, and food places to enjoy. When you budget for your trip, whatever amount you come up with, double it. Especially to ensure the kiddos have an awesome time and walk away with the best memories!

The shows were amazing! Although most rides were having technical difficulties partially due to bad weather, we still managed to have fun.

Sooo fun! 4th of July weekend was my third time there over the course of 20 years! I love that over the years they have been adding more roller coasters. I call this place the aquatic Busch Gardens lol. Love it here, will definitely be back!

(Translated by Google) Terrible experience. I had been there before and it went downhill. Terrible food, poorly trained staff. Lines that would take about 20 minutes in other parks take 1 hour and 30 minutes at SeaWorld… The employees don't bother with the lines, the Fastpass entrance, nothing… Everyone does what they want. People cut in line. Dirty park, dirty and smelly bathrooms. I won't waste my time or money visiting it again. There are many other better, more organized and cheaper park options. There, you pay for everything (when there's any supervision). At the refill machines, people simply go in and take what they want (without any control). Although this is advantageous for some, I saw it as a lack of care from the employees and the park management. It didn't leave a good impression on me. I have no intention of returning. (Original) Péssima experiência. Ja havia ido outras vezes e caiu muito. Péssima comida, pessoal mal treinado. Filas que em outros parques demorariam uns 20 min., no Sea World demoram 1h e 30…. Os funcionários não se ocupam das filas, da entrada do Fast pass, nada…. Cada um faz o que quer. Pessoas furam as filas. Parque sujo, banheiros sujos e com mal cheiro. Não perco mais nem meu tempo nem dinheiro para visita-lo. Existem muitas outras opções de parques melhores, mais organizados para ir e mais baratos. Lá, paga-se por tudo (quando há fiscalização). Nas maquinas para refil , o povo simplesmente entra e pega o que quer (sem controle). Embora para alguns isso seja vantajoso, vi como um descaso dos funcionários e da direção do parque. Não me passou uma boa impressão. Não tenho nenhuma intenção em retornar.

Very big lines , waiting a lot and after rides got broken, just loosed time. During 9 hours being here , we were able to enjoy just 2 rides. Was my niece birthday , 8 years old, and se was disappointed. I put 3 🌟 only because drones & and the fireworks show were amazing at the end of the day
