No. The Adventure Park is free for those accompanying a paid guest. Guests only pay to use the waiver-based activities at the park, such as the Adventure Tower, Observation Tower Pass, Mini-golf, etc. 
What is the cancellation Policy?
We want you to book with confidence. You can cancel your own reservation anytime before the start of your first activity. We will immediately email you the full value of your purchase in the form of a digital gift card. You may apply it anytime towards a new activity date and time.

What happens if it rains?
The Adventure Park is open rain or shine, so we recommend dressing for the weather! If you donโ€™t want to climb in the rain, you may always reschedule for a later time in the day or for a different day even if we remain open.
