Discount tip for Northeasterners with young'uns

[bigmama67]

Here's a deal that can't be beat: we just got Passports to Sesame Place in Pennsylvania - the priciest ones at $131 each - BECAUSE they not only get you into Sesame Place with free parking for the season (which goes through October) but they also get you in free at ALL the Busch parks through the end of the year, including free parking there, and meal discounts!

We are definitely planning to make the most of the Sesame Place season but if we hadn't been planning a trip to Florida, I would have gone for the mid-range passports ($90 each)...but this gets us all the access to the other parks for less than one day's ticket! Therefore I'm planning to take DS to Virginia to see some friends and hit Busch Gardens/Williamsburg and Water Country, and when we go to Orlando we'll be able to get into Sea World (and Busch/Tampa if we decide to) with no extra outlay.

wow that is a great tip. Sesame place shows $136.95 good for Sesame place, BG Tampa or Williamsburg, and SW. Neither BG or SW websites have those passes or anything close for that price. We will be in BG over 4th of July. Older DD will be there for the week (my parents live in VA) so she could go as many times as she wants. We live an hour away from sesame place and have never been and my almost 4 yr old would love it. Plus we are heading to Orlando in Sept and definitely were hitting SW anyways. Who knows maybe enough time to cram BG Tampa in too. This will be a huge savings to us especially if I convince my Mom to buy the girls there passes for their birthday. She was just asking what they want and they definitely will want this.

Do you think this would include the water park near busch gardens in tampa also? We will be in Tampa for 5 days for a work thing for DH and this would give me and the kids something to do but it sure will be HOT in Aug.!! but I don't see it listed on there.

Then we could also use it in November when we got to Orlando to Disney because DS wants to go to Sea World.

I know it includes Water Country USA in Williamsburg but I don't think it includes the park in Tampa, especially if it's not listed. Still a great deal though!

And yes, we went to Sesame Place with DS twice last year when he was 3 and we ALL had a good time or I wouldn't have done a season pass this year. Last Sunday we went and it rained and we STILL had fun!

Edited to add...there are several good water rides at both Busch Gardens parks.
