Hershey’s Chocolate World

Hershey, PA

During a trip to Pennsylvania for work, I was close to the Hershey’s Chocolate World in Hershey, PA.  I had a few free hours, and was able to stop by and check out what they had to offer! From the chocolate tour4D movie experience, and chocolate tasting lab the activities found here are ones that the whole family can enjoy. I got to try all 3 of these experiences out, and wish it was warmer so that I could have also visited Hershey Park located next door to Chocolate World in order to ride some of the roller coasters!

The highlights of the visit for me were the chocolate tasting class, the chocolate milkshake I ordered at the restaurant inside, and of course, the free chocolate!

The chocolate tasting lab allows guests to learn about the ways that Hershey’s works to develop flavors, and best of all, sample 4 different kinds of Hershey’s chocolate to experience the different flavors. After finishing, guests receive a certificate signifying the completion and the guests new found title of Hershey’s Palateer.

The 4D movie, while tailored for younger children, used special effects to enhance the experience for all guests. From the use of water sprays, streamers, 3D tricks, and vibrating seats all of the effects tied in nicely and made for a fun time. Also, after the completion of the video each guest received a free small candy bar, as a nice little perk!
