Willing to book a taxi for the people going to EP in April flying from Manchester. Just need to know a few more details first such as who is staying in whos room and who will need the shuttle.
 
Re: Europa-Park: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

Antica Roma - Buffet Restaurant (International cuisine, complete with a Waiter who throws your anticipated glass of Coke over an unsuspecting member of your party) c€30pp.

I've visited EP several times now yet I'm still to stay on resort. I've been in the hotel rooms, drank in all of the bars, eaten in the restaurants etc, I've just never stayed over. I'm going to look in to it for Terenzi/whatever the Halloween event will be this year.

Who do they drop the coke on so I know to avoid it :p
 
Re: Europa-Park: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

I jest, it's lovely in there. The poor Waiter had to bring out a tray of around 9 drinks, his wrist went limp and the tray tipped all over DanB.
 
Re: Europa-Park: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

I have just been looking at flight prices and Flying Swiss air from LCY is about the same price as Easy jet from Gatwick.

It does look like parking charges at the airport are a lot more expensive at LCY than at LGW.

It would be good to from from the city airport as I have never flown from there before. :)
 
Re: Europa-Park: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

Can't you just get a train to London if flying from City?

Re: Europa-Park: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

That is something I will look at, We are planning on staying the night before in a hotel due to the flight probably being an early one about 8am
 
Re: Europa-Park: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

Great information here people :)
Does anybody know how much the 3 day park tickets cost on the day, are they the same price as the hotel offer? Will be staying in Rust for the first couple of nights, so won't be able to use the hotel offer (as I presume they are valid from the day you check in)

The hotel price for a 3-day pass is cheaper than the 'on the gate' price. I can't remember the difference, but recall somewhere around €10 or €15 difference.
 
Re: Europa-Park: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

Thought that might be the case. Will investigate further nearer the time!
 
Re: Europa-Park: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

Alright then, I'm booked and going over in late June! :)

Now then, is there anything going at that time or is in peak season as I really have no idea what I'm getting myself in for.

Late June isn't a busy period, although are you there on any weekend days? It's often nice to have a day or two of it being a little busier, as chances are you get a significantly longer day in the park.

It is the 27th and 28th I'll be there, the only reason that i'm taking two days is that is that I only know that this is a massive park.

Also, I've been given a cheeky bet from a friend here for me to go to EP wearing a Netherlands football top to tease the Germans!
 
Re: Europa-Park: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

You shouldn't find it so busy, then.

Two days is minimum, yes - the park is enormous and has an awful lot of attractions!

:)

But don't rush and try and get everything done in those two days. One of the beautiful things about Europa Park is the little things that can be easily missed. I have spent 7 days on park at Europa and still not done everything.

The good thing about not doing everything though, it that it makes it a lot easier to justify going back :)

Planning on getting an EP annual pass. Going to be going a few times this year so hopefully I will get my moneys worth :)
 
Re: Europa-Park 2013: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

I have now completed the update to the 1st post in this topic, to reflect 2013 prices and season information.

The current exchange rate (£ vs €) means that prices in the Eurozone have increased around 10% for us compared to last summer. The prices quotes on page 1 are based on €1.16 = £1.00. Should the rate change, prices will naturally fluctuate.

:)
 
Re: Europa-Park 2013: Trip Planning, Questions and Advice!

Just booked my flights.
Just have airport parking to sort out, and a over night stay before we fly, EP transfer. Slowly getting sorted :D
