| How Do I Get To Hershey Pennsylvania |
By Land: Buckle Up, Buttercup!
Car: Ah, the classic American road trip. Hershey beckons you with open highways and the sweet promise of chocolate freedom. Just be sure to pack your best singalong playlist (because let's be honest, who doesn't love a good road trip serenade?). Here's a heads up: Navigation apps are your best friend. Hershey is like a delicious hidden gem, so don't get lost chasing rogue squirrels!
Bus: For those who like to kick back and relax, the bus is a great option. Grab a window seat, pop in some earbuds, and let the world (or at least, the highway) whiz by. Just remember, when that chocolate bar starts calling your name, you might have a few disapproving looks from fellow passengers if you answer.
Taking Flight: Soaring into Sweetness
- Plane: If you're short on time or just have a serious case of the "get me to Hershey now" jitters, then flying might be your best bet. The closest airport is Harrisburg International Airport (MDT), just a stone's throw (or maybe a chocolate bar's throw) away from Hershey. Check with your hotel though, some offer shuttle services to whisk you away to chocolate heaven.
Pro Tip: No matter which mode of transportation you choose, booking in advance is always a good idea. Especially during peak chocolate season (you know, all year round), things can get crowded!
Tip: Don’t rush — enjoy the read.
