Jacksonville, Florida -- From Adventure Landing to an award-winning zoo, with MOSH in the middle! Visit Jacksonville announces a new way to save this spring on a family vacation to Jacksonville. The Jax A-Z Family Pass bundles Jacksonville's top family attractions - Adventure Landing, the Museum of Science & History (MOSH) and the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens at a savings. The one-stop admission ticket, available at Visit Jacksonville's Web site, is $32.99 for adults and $25.99 for children (ages 3-12), a savings of up to $7 per person.

Adventure Landing is "The Place to Play!"  The family entertainment complex has something for everyone, from kids to adults. Practice putting skills on the miniature golf course or perfect gaming skills in the mega arcade.  Keep an eye on the ball in the batting cages or build a stuffed-animal friend at the Teddy Bear Factory.  The Jax A-Z Family Pass includes an Adventure Landing Quest Pass where guests are granted three tickets to be used for any combination of the following attractions: mini-golf, laser tag and go-karts.

Experience electrifying and explosive science shows, explore 12,000 years of Jacksonville's history or watch the stars circle the night sky at the Museum of Science & History (MOSH). The MOSH features hands-on exhibits exploring nature, history and science.  There are small animal exhibits and aquariums to view and special exhibits are featured seasonally.  This spring, the museum is welcoming guests to the A-Mazing Seas, a fully immersive maze-based exhibit. The exhibit compels visitors to climb into sea turtle shells, crawl through a whale's mouth and reach into an octopus cave while discovering simple solutions for challenges that face inhabitants of the deep blue and beyond. The Jax A-Z Family Pass grants guests admission to the museum, as well as the Science Show at MOSH, normally offered at an additional charge.  The Science Show is where all the action happens, from hair raising fun to exploding objects.

The Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens features over 1,500 rare and exotic animals and its renowned botanical gardens are home to over 1,000 species of plants. Special features include Play Park, Gardens of Trout River Plaza and Giraffe Overlook.  Be sure to visit the award-winning Range of the Jaguar exhibit or the Asian Bamboo Garden and Komodo Dragon Exhibit, which opened in 2009 and draws in visitors with an authentic Moon Gate, Lotus Pool, Orchid Pavilion and Bamboo Mist Forest. The Komodo dragon exhibit is set in an Indonesian fishing village and features two komodo dragons.  This spring, enjoy penguins in a new permanent exhibit and stingrays and sharks in a temporary home.  Guests with a Jax A-Z Family Pass also receive 10 percent off at zoo gift boutiques.
