Things to Do/Places to Visit

When you visit the museum, you can tour the rooms, historic offices, as well as admire the beautiful artwork located throughout the building. Other than the museum, you can also tour the park, which holds a World Peace Rose Garden, a collection of plantings from around the world. Entrance to the Capitol, museum, and park are free.

• Crocker Art Museum

The Crocker Art Museum is one of California most famous art museums, holding more than 15,000 art pieces. The museum contains many Californian pieces, as well as many African, Oceanic, and Asian pieces. Originally established as a home and art gallery for the Crocker family in 1865, it has now become one of Sacramento’s most famous tourist spots. For adult entry, it costs $10. For students and seniors, its $8. For those aged 7 to 17, its only $5.

• California State Railroad Museum

Learn about locomotives in this interactive railroad museum. Visit each restored train with their histories and unique interiors. If you’re looking for something educational, this museum is the place to go. Here, you can learn about the expansion of the railroads, their importance in economy, and their impact on traveling. For a entertaining outing, hop on the Sacramento Southern Railroad train, which is operated by the museum. Admission to the museum is $10 for adults; for kids aged 6 to 17, it is $5. Children under 6 are free.

• Sacramento Zoo

The Sacramento Zoo is another popular destination in Sacramento. While it is small (14.2 acres), there is still a great time to be had observing the 140 different species of animals. Like most zoos, you have the traditional zoo animals like lions, tigers, zebras, giraffes, as well as many birds, reptiles, and amphibians. Other than the zoo itself, there is also an affordable gift shop, where you can buy little trinkets for your children. Admission for adults is $11.75. For children aged 2 to 11, it costs $7.75. More information on the zoo is available on their website.

• Sacramento and American Rivers

Are you more of an outdoor enthusiast? Then take to the waters on either the Sacramento or American River. Or why not both? If it’s a warm day, bring out the canoe you’ve been waiting to use. You can also water ski and kayak. Don’t like watersports? That gives you the reason to get out your fishing gear and go fishing. Relax on the waters as you wait for fish to bite your bait. Also, at most parts of the river, you can hop into the water. Don’t forget to drag your family and friends in too!

• Fairytale Town

If you have small children with you on your trip to Sacramento, you need to take them to Fairytale Town. Let your kids enjoy with their favorite cartoon characters like Peter Rabbit, Eeyore the donkey, and Mary’s little lambs. While not the most entertaining for older kids and adults, kids under the age of 7 will have a blast at this amusement park. Let their imagination run wild as they play on more than 25 huge playsets. Tickets for adults and young ones cost $4.50 on weekdays and $5.50 on the weekends

• Sutter’s Fort

There’s probably not a more historical place than this in all of Sacramento. In the 1840’s, a Swiss immigrant by the name of John Sutter built a fortress for himself and his crops on a massive 150,000 acres of his own land. It was 50 miles from here that one of Sutter’s associates, James Marshall, found the first recorded golden nugget. This would soon start the California Gold Rush. After Sutter’s workforce left, the fort fell into bad shape. Now restored, the fort is operated by the California State Park Service. Admission for adults is $5 and $3 for those under 17.

The golf ball is actually a popular ride called Spaceship Earth, a ride that shows the technological advances made throughout history. Other popular attractions include Soarin’, Test Track, and Frozen Ever After. We also recommend visiting other countries in Epcot’s World Showcase. It gives you the opportunity to learn and enjoy the cultures of countries around the world.

Here, you can take a popular 3D flying simulator ride called the Flight of Passage. Other attractions to visit include the Kilimanjaro Safari, Expedition Everest, Maharajah Jungle Trek, and Gorilla Falls Exploration Trail. Also, if you have kids, we suggest you take them to the 3D show, It’s Tough to Be a Bug.

  Based around movies and shows, Hollywood Studios is a blast for both kids and adults. Make sure to visit the new Toy Story Land, where you can become the size of a toy.

• If you’re looking for a thrill ride, head over to Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. Here, you can free fall down the tower at scary speeds. We also recommend that you visit the Star Wars area, the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular, and the Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith.

• Universal Studios is another major park in Orlando, Florida.
  

  

  Like Hollywood Studios, it is also based on the entertainment industry. It’s best to spend the whole day here, as there is just so much to do. Visit a special effects show, or ride scary coasters. You decide how much fun you want to have. Revenge of the Mummy, Jurassic Park, and the Harry Potter attractions are all recommended.

• SeaWorld is a park based off aquatic animals.
  

  

  Watch killer whales jump and do tricks in the water, or become a flying manta ray on the Manta. If you’re not afraid of heights, we recommend riding the Mako (200 ft.) and Kraken (153 ft.). Other attractions to visit include Wild Arctic and Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin.
