I have had a season pass to Kings Island almost every summer for about 10 years now...I can't even count the # of times I have been here, but this park never gets old to me! If you love roller coasters definitely try: The Beast(ride in the very back car if you love the "jerky" feeling of old wooden coasters.... more

Kings Island is a basic amusement park with really a nice kid’s area. Unfortunately, the park doesn’t live up to its potential and fell short of my expectations. Just about everywhere I went in the park I would rate as average or below. The biggest disappointment of the day was the complete disregard of the no-smoking policy and Kings Island... more

I must be getting old. My trip to KI brought back memories of being young and in love. However, now that I am a Mom, I think there are better places for families. I shouldn't be surprised or disappointed with KI. If I had thought back, I would have remembered that most amusement parks are run by twenty-somethings, and cater... more

We went on June 16, 2008 as a group of teens and parents to Kings Island after a national sports tournament. It is an annual tradition for the team. A big group decided to ride every coaster. This kept them busy for most of the day, and they loved it. Their favorites were the Firehawk by far, then Son of... more

Very nice park. Good variety of rides for all ages. The Nickelodeon area is especially nice....it has a mixture of kiddie rides and bigger rides that adults can ride with the kids. My kids particulary liked the Scooby Doo ride (like Buzz Lightyear in Disney), the Fairly Oddparents coaster, the Wild Thornberry log ride, and the water rapids ride. They... more

A group of us decided to go to Kings Island, and for many of us it was our first trip there. We went on Friday, May 16, 2008. This was also Math and Science day for a bunch of school kids. Although the entrance was extremely crowded, it didn't take very much time to get our tickets. It took longer... more

When I was a child I lived near Kings Island. We had season passes and went just about every day they were open. Now that I dont live near there I dont get to go very often so my review will be based on the last time I was there with my husband for our 1st anniversary. Which was June... more

Haven't been to Kings Island since 2000, but even then it was a great park. Really want to get back down there to see how much it's changed. Favorite coaster is of course The Beast. Has to be my favorite of all time. I remember my dad, who loves it, convincing me to get on. I didn't want to because... more

The park was nice. A little spread out but had things to keep your attention. The number of attractions kept lines shorter (though still long). I liked the Nikelodean area and attractions. The Tombraider ride and area 51 rides are pleasant suprises, though the Beast is over rated. It is a great place to spend a day or two. The... more

We went to Kings Island for their Friday Night Hollowween event on Oct. 19. We had been to Cedar Point's before and loved it so we decided to try another park for a change. BIG MISTAKE! First, it was very crowded. Second, unlike Cedar Point, the ride operators are not very good at what they do. They spend more time... more

Went to Kings Island and their attached waterpark Boomerang Bay on Labor Day weekend. Our boys, ages 5 & 8 had a wonderful time. Here is my review separated by park and water park. REVIEW FOR KINGS ISLAND: Pros: •Nickelodeon Universe was a big hit for both children. This is not your typical kiddie land. They had several rides that... more

We went to Kings Island over the weekend of Aug 4-5 and had a good time. I was worried about the lines for the rides but they weren't overly long. The longest we waited was about an hour for any ride. The rides there are good. I love coasters and its not as good as Cedar Point. But We still... more

You can have fun here, but the price to get in is ridiculous so look for discount tickets on line or through specials/ads. Also be ready for long lines if it is a nice day. The waterpark here has improved, but is still nothing to write home about. The prices on food is very high. I dont like waiting in... more

My wife and I have made it a point to stop at any theme park we can during our travels. We have come to rate them based on a few factors: price, number/diversity of rides (we are roller coaster enthusiasts), cleanliness, food availability (since we hate to tote around our own food). Kings Island ranks somewhere in the middle of... more

This is the second summer that my husband and I took our daughter to Kings Island in Ohio. She is now 8. The rides are fun & the park is clean. The staff is a bit rude but then again, most of them are teenagers. There was also a nice variety of food and shopping areas! I HIGHLY recommend the... more

Just some tips that I know wish I had known. Food and drinks are outrages at the park, $3.00 for a bottle of water. You can take in a small cooler full of water bottles only. If you need a little flavor, bring those Kool Aide or Crystal Light singles. Also, It is worth purchases the refillable drink for $6.49,... more

Kings Island has now been bought by CedarFair, who owns the Cedar Point and Geauga Lake Amusement parks in Ohio as well. The old owners, Paramount, obviously turned over the park in a somewhat worn condition but still it is acceptable. The park has a fair amount of rides on the amusement side and they can be covered in a... more

We really had a great time at Kings Island. We went on a busy weekend in July. My children are 2 and 4 and love the Nick Jr. shows. We picked this so that they could go to the kids area with the Nickelodean theme. The Dora show was perfect. It lasted about 15 minutes. The kids could dance and... more
