Insider Tips You Don’t Want to Miss

Seuss Landing is best enjoyed during the day and at night. I prefer to start with doing the rides in the morning, before wait times get long. Then I take time to explore and check out all the details of the land. I picked out a few things below that you want to include in your exploring.

Take a Picture Under the Zax by Pass

The Zax by Pass is a fun photo-op in Seuss Landing. When you enter Seuss Landing go directly to your left and follow the path. Green Eggs and Ham eatery will be on your right.

This will lead you to the Zax by Pass. You can continue along the path and will exit near Moose Juice, Goose Juice. There are also restrooms located at the end of the path.

Stroll Through a Truffula Tree Forest

I love the message of the Lorax and you can take a short walk through the trees enjoying little surprises along the path.

Visit Horton the Elephant’s Nest

This is another awesome photo-op located outside the Cat in the Hat gift shop. Sit in the nest that Horton has to keep his egg safe. It is a great place to take a quick family picture!

Check out the View at Sneetch Beach

If you take a look at the lagoon in the center of the park you will see the Sneetches on the Beaches. Guests can also see them from the High in the Sky Trolley Train Ride.

Seuss Landing is a fun place for guests of all ages to explore and include in their day at Islands of Adventure.
