Bit disappointing to honest...

    2021: Europa-Park General Discussion

    Just want to add November has been a fantastic time to visit if you don't mind it a bit cold but enjoy an empty park. I am not exaggerating when I say everything has been walk on or station walk in and that's with Silver Star and Wodan on one train! We found the whole experience a tad surreal...

    2021: Europa-Park General Discussion

    Thanks Dan for the explanation we did potentially think it might be down to that. We will be exploring throughout our days here so will keep posted on how busy the park is and if bits like the silver lake saloon are open etc. We did notice pretty much all the Christmas Decs were up in Hotel...

    2021: Europa-Park General Discussion

    Arrived earlier today in Rust today and had a lovely meal in La Romantica in hotel Colosseo which was lovely and quite a few of the Christmas Decorations are up already. There was live music as well which was a lovely surprise as I assumed all of that had stopped. Would add as a minor gripe that...

    Trip Planning 2023/24: Information, advice and questions!

    Thanks for the replies I will book the 2 day Europa Park tickets as well as the 1 day Rulantica tickets. I asked previously but I think some people have been more recently, can you still goto guest relations to upgrade your two day ticket to a three day ticket? I assume if this was still the...

    Trip Planning 2023/24: Information, advice and questions!

    Just in the process of planning my second trip (and first not in the summer season) to Europa. Very excited to be returning having not been since 2015 which feels a very long time ago now. I was just wondering is there any benefit to buying tickets in advance? It's only because we plan on...

    Salvaging Summer (European Tour) - Park thoughts

    Great trip reports guys. Yes Toverland felt quite changed with the two visits I've had the first in 2016 and the second in 2019. Having the new area and new entrance make it feel far grander although I do understand where your coming from I still really enjoyed the park and look forward to...

    2021: Europa-Park General Discussion

    Thank you Dan. That's good for us as having not experienced either offering and leaning more towards an interest of their Christmas offerings going the last full week of November hopefully is nearly a full Christmas experience but won't let ourselves be disappointed if it isn't as the park are...

    2021: Europa-Park General Discussion

    Am in the process of planning a trip for late November. It will be the second time I have been having not been back since 2015. I was wondering if anyone has any information about the new for 2021 "Hallowinter". I was wondering if people who have been at a similar time previous years can say is...

    2019: General Discussion

    When I went for the services days and I did ask at the spinball photo booth if there was SRQ and was told there wasn't. Also pretty sure I saw there were still some of the VR pouches on Galacticas trains but not in all so couldn't see inside for myself if they had anything inside them still.

    2019: General Discussion

    Have just had two days at the park, adding from the no VR Galactica, Congo river rapids was drained and wasn't running yet this season (no waterfalls yet then!), battle gallions also wasn't running yet ( although you would have to of been mad to of ridden it in that weather!) Not sure if it's...

    Thorpe Park: General Discussion

    Just wanted to say myself and a few friends attended the services day on Sunday and as a whole it was a fantastic day (and night) out and I felt very fortunate to be able to attend the event, especially after reading some of the horror stories of fright night queues. Operations were very...

    2018: General Discussion

    Does anyone have a route to take when going through the gardens that has you see everything in one clear route? or is it just best to stick to the big main path that starts under the archway bridge?

    2018: Wicker Man - General Discussion - SPOILERS! - Part One

    It definitely looks the part, I wonder how its going to stack up next to the other europe GCI's Ive done (Jorvis, Troy and Wodan) as I rate them pretty highly, even if it is 4th out of the ones Ive been on thats still not necessarily a bad thing as the other 3 are great rides. Hoping it is open...

    2018: Wicker Man - General Discussion - SPOILERS! - Part One

    I am excited for this ride can't wait to ride it. Could it be open for the services weekend (3rd and 4th of March)? Really like those pictures however due to the opening hours the only time your get the chance to ride it in the dark is Halloween which kinda sucks.

    Fantasy Island

    It was good thank you, the park is certainly a bit weird having market areas, a funfair over the road from it, a odd bodge of food outlets and large arcade areas but overall worth a visit. Odessey was open with a small queue thoughout the whole day, even going down to walk on at times. As a ride...

This is going in a new area behind space mountain and set to not replace anything. I can't help but feel...
