Steve’s take

If Hersheypark is too much time or money, Chocolate World is the free alternative and it's genuinely great. The chocolate tour ride is free, you get a free candy bar at the end, and the gift shop has every Hershey product ever made. Your kids can design their own candy bar wrapper and you can buy chocolate in quantities that should require a forklift. Twenty minutes off I-81. Free ride, free chocolate, free smiles. The Griswold family budget approves.
