A Real Parent's Story
The ferry ride was more exciting than the park
“My kids spent the whole boat ride pretending to be pirates. We got to the park and they wanted to go back on the ferry.”

We drove 3 hours from Pune for EsselWorld. The ferry from Borivali to Gorai was unexpectedly the highlight. My kids spent 20 minutes pretending to search for treasure. Water Kingdom kept them occupied for 4 hours.
