Kings Island is consistently regarded as a great value. This theme park, located north of Cincinnati, Ohio, opened in 1972 and was immortalized in an episode of “The Brady Bunch” — the episode was called “The Cincinnati Kids,” even though the theme park is in Mason.
Kings Island has the world’s longest wooden coaster, The Beast (it goes along 7,361 feet of track), and newer steel roller coasters such as Diamondback and Orion.
