Plan your Visit.
We had a 7th birthday party for our son Tyler at Legoland on Sunday January 17, 2013. It was our first time at the facility. The kids loved the place. The staff was excellent, my hats off to Brie, Sara, and EB. Brie was concierge and greeted us at the door. EB was our party host, she provided exceptional service. All three attended to all of our needs and added to the fun. Thank-you! The only drawback would be that Legoland can get crazy with thirteen 6 and 7 year olds on a busy weekend. Also, remember to bring cash to tip the staff as you cannot add a tip to your credit card. I will definitely recommend to others and we will visit again as our kids loved Legoland!
