    I an from Alicante and I feel very nostalgic about this place at it is my first theme park. Its golden days passed more than 15 years ago, now its decadence is evident. I remember when they first opened the pendulum ride and the inferno roller coaster. Since then, no new rides. Bad economic management, insufient mantainance and accidents has led to very bad fame among locals. Now only school kids and outsiders visit Terra Mitica. Its a pity, so different from the way Aqualandia water park was managed... I will come back this year to Terra Mitica just because I have free tickets

    Magnus Colossus opened on 27 July 2000. It closed in 2015 indefinitely, due to high maintenance costs. It has also been removed from their website, from the list of rides

    My parents live in El Campello and we visited this park from the very start. It was amazing at first and then went down hill and changed owners. Over the last few years its had a lot of money invested in it and honestly it's becoming great again. This is a theme park, not an amusement park, so it's not only focused on the rides.
    The shows make this park. Amazing shows in the collesium and the deals show.
    The restaurants also make this park, they have sit down formal restaurants which serve amazing food.
    Collusus coaster has been closed for many years and that is also stated on their website and the paper maps they give you. It used to be a great coaster, it just need RMC to come and make it outstanding.
    The water rides which you also missed are great, the log flume and the boat, where you get soaked.
    Revisit this park on August, see the shows, eat in the nice restaurants and I think you be converted:)

    I did Terra Mitica in 2008 and got to ride the rapids, colossus, the pyramid of terror (which was an extra 5 euros but well worth it) and other various rides which you either did show and didn’t get the chance to go on on or seem to have gone forever unfortunately
    It does look like it’s lost a bit of its oomph since then though which is a shame

  • @markwilliamlacey
    @markwilliamlacey Рік тому +5

    A quick bit of research would of been good Tim! Magnus Colossus at Terra Mittica has been SBNO (standing but not operating) since 2015 due to the extreme maintenance costs (woodies don't do well in extremely hot climates and require frequent retrack work) so it was never going to be running when you visited, it hasn't run for 8 years! It was originally a Paramount Park but since they sold it to current owners there has been hardly any investment,
    the park used to be much bigger but was divided into two parks with only half (Terra Mittica ) open this time of year with the whole park only opening in high season, since COVID though the Iberia Park side has not opened which is a shame as the rapids ride was great there. You do need to take swimming costumes for the full experience (it cost me 2 bikinis and a towel for my daughter's last time, I had shorts on that were swim shorts) it was a great day out when the whole park was open but the two coasters are very rough, the blue one is a standard Verkoma SLC which are terrible vomit inducing rides frequently removed from parks all over the world.

    Me and me dad were there on one of the days like that, with a million Spanish whippersnappers running around causing chaos... After being annoyed at all the queuejumping they were doing, we went to complain. They then gave us some form of fast pass thing which was great. Nothing was mentioned at the gate, though.
    I do still really like Terra Mitica, but its a real shame that its almost been left to die. Both the circus show in the 'Collosseum' and the pirate show were always very good if they're still running...

    Hi Tim😊 When it first opened all us locals were pleased too hear about Theme Park and we do get choice of an anual pass, which works out obviously much cheaper, but once youve been a few times things were noticable, rides not running, lack of atmosphere, more boring rides than exciting ones, so we just stopped going. Its sad because most probably cost a fortune to build and maintain, but is pretty boring for a theme park😢

    Yes, i can see it being a bit dissapointing when one or two top rides are closed or you are unlucky with a busy day. Other than that, you've shown 6 plus quite decent top attractions / rides. Thus assuming you go on them twice say in 4 hours......that is pretty good value for £25 appx entry fee. It looks to me that when more atmosphere is added by music, more shows, more vendors, street performers etc....that this park could should be a great place to visit.

The catch is they can only be used at the gate on the day which is the most expensive way to get a single ticket It's still cheaper paying online for 2 tickets than at the gate for 1.

    We used to live in Benidorm and had season passes for a couple of years around 2013-2015 when our son was around 7 years old. However once we’d done all the rides and no new ones were added we stopped going. We only used to go for half a day as it’s all we needed to go on the rides we wanted to. When it first opened queues were over an hour long for the bigger rides. There were more places to eat but they all gradually closed. Shame as it such a big park, was always clean and the theming was good. Don’t think this park will ever be as popular as when it first opened. Brilliant video as always.

    Great videos. Why you don’t have millions of viewers I don’t know! Feel like being on holiday when I can’t afford it.
