I was a bit surprised Dollywood was so high, I like Disney World better than it. SeaWorld Orlando has improved a TON over recent years which is why its so high up on the list.

Dan Gross Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Way to be credible yahoo...Top 10 "theme" parks include an old boardwalk amusment park in Mrytle Beach, but no mention of any of the Disneyworld parks. If I read it correctly, they pick the top park in each "tourist region," then rank in top ten. Universal > any one of the Disney parks in Orlando (maybe even all...haven't been to Universal), so it gets the nod... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gross Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Then why are both Universal Studios and SeaWorld Orlando there? 715048[/snapback] Okay, that's bizarre...I looked at the list of "things to do in Orlando area," and apparently Disney World is #1 in "Lake Buena Vista".... and it looks like it's behind Sea World and Universal in the area because it has about half as many reviews...The ranking is apparently whatever theme park gets more people to review it positively on Yahoo's site...

eball Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I'm surprised Busch Gardens Williamsburg isn't on that list. Love that place. Great roller coasters, crowd control, an entertaining theme, and a big freakin' Festhaus to get snookered in. And if you get tired of the park, you just ride the monorail over to the brewery.
