Top 2 day trips things to do in Newark

1. One Day Pass to American Dream attractions in Newark

A full day ticket — visit DreamWorks Water Park, Blacklight Mini Golf, Mirror Maze, and TiLT Museum, all included.

“I took my kids, ages 7 and 5, to the water park, but the entire children's area was closed. They could only enjoy the wave pool and the toboggan ride. When I talked to the manager, they informed me that no refunds are offered. For nearly $400 for our family of four, there wasn't enough for the kids to do, so we left after about three hours due to boredom. The burger shake was too expensive, the pineapple jam swim-up bar wasn't open, and the other bar only had alcoholic slushies, with no beer available. While the concept is appealing, they need to ensure that all attractions are operational for a satisfying experience.”— 690krystam

Two days by bus, including Corning, Niagara Falls boat ride, and Finger Lakes winery stop, with evening illumination of the falls on Day 1.
