Don't remember the exact price, but there was one rate for general admission and then a separate add on that allowed the train ride, 3D movie, giraffe feeding and carousel ride......

I do remember that the sodas were $6 each, no ice, no cup, just a can and that none of the concessioners took cash, just debit or credit.......
