We can feel in your video that you've been amazed by Europa Park. You are, according to me, the best theme park reviewer . You have a very clear English, and as a French speaker, it's easy for me to understand your videos. I'm waiting your review of Phantasialand !
My dad was military and stationed in germany for a few years growing up. I have lots of great memories of going to Europa Park as a kid. Thanks for the review and trip down memory lane.
Yay! Finally a review of my home park! By the way, I think that Euromaus (their mascot) isn't a Mickey Mouse copy but rather a nod to Mack Rides most iconic model: the wild mouse.
Europa Park day was the best day of the year in my childhood!!! Every autumn I went there with my family and enjoyed every single second of it. Greetings from Switzerland
Absolutely spot on review. I've been to Europa-Park year after year and can easily enjoy a 6 day vacation over there and still feel sad when it's time to go home. I've been to all the themed hotels which are all unique in their own way with Colosseo being my favourite. Also, if you haven't already done it, visit Europa-Park during the winter season. And preferably just before Christmas. This park does Christmas decorations and shows so well it will be the perfect warmup for the holidays. Europa-Park is by far my favourite park. Everything from the architecture right down to the food is spot on and to highest quality standards. But what I love most is that feeling of amazement and warmth you get every single time you get there. It's the same feeling that you got the very first time and they manage to give it every time after that first visit. And that is amazing. For me it's without a doubt the best park in the world.
Well said! Around Halloween it's also amazing. Euro Sat turns into a huge pumpkin, the park into a ghost town. There are monsters etc everywhere plus a really scary labyrinth/maze
I skated in the ice show in Europapark in the 90's for 4 years (the ice shows started in '92, which i skated in). I love the park SO much, and I loved working there. It really felt like being part of the family back then. I know the Macks too. They were really good to us! It really is my fave park, and I think it's better than Euro Disney. Cheaper to get in too! Edit: PS the guy at the front of the camel is my friend Carlos from Brazil! Great guy 😊
Nice to see someone from Brazil helping others have a bit of magic in the real world. I'm from Brazil and I would love to visit Europa Park and Germany in general.
I’m going to Europa-park once or twice a year for about 16 years with my parents. I’m a real themepark enthousiast, so I went to a lot of parks. But my mom is the one that suggest to go to Europa-park each year, and she doesn’t even like thrill rides or rollercoasters. That says a lot about all the other great things this park has to offer. The hotels are amazing (if you don’t sleep there, please go to have at least a look), the food is very very good (they even got a restaurant with a Michelin star), the park overall is very immersive, there are a ton of things to experience, the staff is really nice and the park is very clean as well. And everytime I got there, they got some new attractions or experiences, so I assure you will never ever get bored. The best park I’ve ever been to. Period.
When I was at Europa Park it was a slightly colder spring day and it rained in the morning. So the park was basically completely empty. We rode blue fire 3 times in a row without even having to leave the seats. That was pretty awesome.
Taylor I applaud that review. Best one you have done. It really gave me a sense of what to expect if I ever get the chance to visit this beautiful site.
I am very happy that you made this review, I grew up in Germany and it was our family’s annual summer fun to do with the whole Family, we rented a bus and had the most amazing time every year at Europa Park, it never got boring and every year we found something new! This place is truly magical!!!!!
I strongly agree with the view presented in this video. Compared to all the Parks I've been to, I'd say that Europa Park is the most beautiful and professionally run park of them all. It's clean, immersive and the wait times are respectably short if you don't go during high season. I just went today and had 10 minute lines for all major roller coasters. There can be high queue times as well of course but for comparison: I went to Fuji Q last year and even though it was low season and not many people were in the park, Dodonpa had 2 hour queue lines. That is because they take a lot of care and a lot of time to seat everybody properly. After I've been to a few other parks, I realize that I had been spoiled and didn't know it. In Europa Park it's just pure efficiency, people leave the train, people get in and off it goes. They ride several trains on the tracks at once and it just all goes very smoothly. What Europa Park does lack though is as you said, more flat thrill rides and maybe one more really record reaching roller coaster. The thrill coasters they have are nice and solid with Wodan, Bluefire and Silver Star being the three main attractions. But I have seen and ridden faster and meaner attractions. That doesn't mean I don't enjoy the Park. In fact, I bought a clubcard today and I plan to go a lot this year until it really becomes stale for a while^^ Anyhow, have a nice evening and thanks for the interesting watch. :)
I have to say, I was living in Stuttgart for almost a year and visited Europa Park about 6 times. I LOVE this park and hold it in high regards. I love the roller coasters, dark rides, food and entertainment but I love the theming most of all. I was fortunate enough to be there around Halloween so I got to see the park decorated for Halloween with thousands of pumpkins. I also got to go to Horror Nights, their version of Halloween Horror Nights. It was pretty cool and while I wasn't able to understand everything being said, it still made for a great time. I'm trying to plan a trip back to Germany and plan on visiting Europa Park again. It's amazing!!! No,not quite Disneyish but it has a feel for its own.
I've only heard one person dislike Europa Park. They said it was too much like a Disney park, and they don't really like those. Seeing as I consider Disneyland a home park, that's really exciting to me.
it´s really nice to watch your video. I lived there for like 4 months last year as employee of Europa park :). I lived almost in park, right behind my appartment was gate for employees to the Grimm´s enchanted forest. I was there literally every day, i know every single one atraction and places there. It is like second home for me with lot of memories :)
Ah yes. Europa Park. Our customer. I can totally understand why you were that amazed by the park. I got to visit it after we launched their kids club website a few years ago. And yeah, I'm not a coaster fan so I really could enjoy much more in that park than I ever could in Phantasialand, Moviepark or Efteling. There is just so much other stuff to do and see. One of my favorite memories is in that fairytale area, being spit on by one of those frog statues out of nowhere. :D
I grew up there :) We had good connectrions with the Macks for a while when they where a customer of my father. Now I live in Berlin :D Hope to come back soon.
Europapark is the best, I’m sad that you couldn’t ride eurosat cancan coaster (that coaster in the epcot styled ball) cuz it’s really good. I visited Europapark like 30 times and I never get bored of going there. I always have a great time.
so nice to hear you talking about the EuropaPark :) Im livin in SouthGermany(Bavaria) and i am lucky to visit the europaPark once a year.... you should have mentioned the In-Area-Hotels aswell, talking about this wonderful immersion :) regardless, absolutely OnPoint presentation of this mindblowing amusement park, I share every little part of this review!
Have you tried traveling back home at 250kph beeing totaly exhausted and tired? I know what that is like. In the end I tailed up to a truck from Offenburg till Karlsruhe at 80 kph all the way. XD
@@Homogenisierer I've been living in Valais for one year. Best parts of driving between Karlsruhe and Brig was the Lötschbergtunnel and the relaxed Swiss Autobahn - turned on cruise controll and never touched it again. Hands free for coffee. I loved it!
Great review Taylor! And it's absolutly on point. I've been at Europa Park last year and must confirm everything you said. In my opinion more thrill rides would be a good thing. Mack already confirmed that they are going to build a new thrill coaster in the upcoming years. Possibly in the center area of the park. That being said - I really really would love to ride Blue Fire with Time Traveller trains :D
Ive went to Europa Park this past summer- and hell yeah its the best park (ive visited). Its just gorgeous and the overall experience is great. The rides are good, i liked them and dont think theyre bad like some other people think they are, but yes a new thrill coaster is something i also want, they said that they will build one in the future and they will be getting a new Eastern European area, so probably Czech Republic, Poland or Hungary. Overall yeah Europa Park is amazing and i wished i went 2 days, and i really want to get back there eventually
I grew up with Europa Park, so every time I visit another theme park it just can`t be compared. Disney World is nice and beautiful, but there are way too many open spaces without any theming. But another thrill coaster at Europa Park would be really nice!
I feel like the three thrill rides are enough haha. But I was there right after quarantine, where only 10000 people were allowed in and you could basically ride Silverstar, get off, no queue and ride again lol
Amusment parks are more and more popular here as a summer entertainment. The parks are more empty at the start of the season. So please ask, it's worth the money.
Great review! You're 100% spot on. My wife and I visited Europa Park 2 years ago when we saw it on a 10 day Bavarian rental car trip during Halloween and loved it. We found it much better themed and enjoyable than Disneyland Californian and Disneyland Paris. We loved it so much that we're going again for Easter this year during our 2 week Europe vacation. I do like the fact it's not well known outside of Europe because it can stay less crowded (hopefully). IIRC, I think Europa Park is larger than Disneyland California and Paris. You really do need to take the little train around to visit the different themed countries.
ill visit europa park for the second time next week and im super exited. last time i went i really loved it! you can feel the excitemend of being a child there no matter how old you are, the food is not as overpriced as it is in other parks and theres a lot to do for people who like roller coasters and also people like me who are huge scaredy cats. its so nice there!!
It´s my most favourite park. I am a club member and been to that park 4 times since September already. It´s amazing me every time and it´s feels like home. Everything about it is so passionate. It´s crazy how much love and passion they´ve put into any detail. Crazy how much there is to discover. I´ve been going there over 20 years now and i still discover attractions that i didn`t know were there. THANKS MACK FAMILY
I feel like Mack and Europa Parks next huge coaster could be a giga. After the success with the Mack hypers, like DC Rivals, they might be ready to go 300+ feet
They won't. Silver Star's noise level was already at the limit for the local residents. They even had to install a shield at the first drop to shield Rust from noise and screams, and Europa-Park may only operate Silver Star until 8pm, even if the park is open longer. Micheal Mack suggested that the next coaster would be an Xtreme Spinning Coaster, but that sounded like a very loose idea.
I have been to Europa park back in the 90s as a child and it has always been my absolute fav theme park ever. I have only been to Disney Paris, and Hongkong, I have not been to any theme park /amusement park in USA to compare it with.. but from a child perspective it was thrilling and fun and always wanted to go again but sadly it was far from our summer travel destination which is Munich ❤️ The best ride that I have ever tried was the dome rollercoaster I cannot recall what the real name of the ride but it was fun.. rollercoaster in the dark!!
Great video, very good review! I have been regularly to Europa park since 1982 and I totally agree with you! However Ed the mouse is not a copy of Disney, it is the symbol of the first coasters built by Mack Rides. Wild Mouse coaster
i went to Disney Paris after being at Europa Park, and my feeling is that Disney is for little kids, while Europa Park is better suited for a more mature audience. The rides are more fun and everything feels new and fresh.
We were yesterday (September 1st, 2021) there and and due to the Pandemic they were only 10.000 people allowed into the park instead of 25.000 (vaccinated, tested or recovered was the condition and you had to buy the tickets in advance). All the attractions were in operation but some indoor shows and a number of dining places were closed but that didn't bother us to much. Average waiting time was 20 minutes I would say perfect!
My favorite place in the world. My happy place, my piece of heaven. The best park in the universe. They have everything, for every age. No matter if you're not a kid anymore, you have to try even the kids stuff. They are full with magic. So much fun so much things to do, you can never get bored. They have everything you need. And don't need. No one will ever regret for visiting there. I've been there close to ten times. I never get tired of this place, they are always adding new stuff. Can't wait to be there again
Hi, I'm living 2 hours away from Europa Park and i go there at least twice a year. I recommend going there on the halloween period where they completely relook the park (they have the records for most pumpkins in the world if I'm not wrong) which is fantastic. I love how their queues are made so that u're never bored when you are waiting even if it's a 1h30 queue. They are currently building an aquapark for end of 2019 which should be one of the biggest in europe too. And they planned to build a big thrill coaster after that. I loved ur video because it described my favourite park since I'm a child so well.
I went there a few times as a kid (I grew up in Switzerland) I was so young, but I remember it being such a cool place! Loved it more than Disney Land Paris! I live in the US now, but I so need to go there again someday as an adult!
I like your filming very much...you showed the beauty of that park perfectly...this could be an EP-advert, but the park really is that good and that beautiful...you just captured the qualities very well...a big thumbs up for that...
My brother did a week long camp at EuropaPark hosted by Bayern Munich (as in the soccer team) where they played soccer in the morning and went in the park in the afternoons
Scandinavia was one of the best part of Europapark imo it hosted Pirates in Batavia - it's in renovation rn because of a fire that happened in the attraction in 2018
I went there with my family three weeks ago and oh my god what a great park. At first I was a bit puzzled that we bought 2-days tickets (cause I live in France and here the parks don't really require more than one day, yes even Disneyland) but I am so glad we went for two days. The first day was really really crowded cause it was a holiday in France and since the park is right next to the French border it was a huge day in terms of attendance. We had the chance to ride Silver Star twice but we didn't get to ride Blue Fire, CanCan Coaster and Atlantica SuperSplash that day, since the queues were over 90 minutes on those rides all day. On the second day though it was far less crowded, we got to ride Blue Fire twice, Silver Star twice (again) and Timbur and Euromir again. All in all it was an awesome weekend in what is one of my top parks in the world. Would do it again!
You can spend daaaays here. And i mean it :). In September, i'll be staying for a whole week! I love this park so much and the food is freaking awesome! Especially in the hotels. ALSO, as a hotel guest you get to enter an hour before the park opens to the normal folks ^^. Meaning you can basically ride your faf coaster a couple of times before the waiting begins. Best thing is, it's still growing. So more Roller Coasters might get added :). Enjoy your stay if you goo. For me it is the best park in the world.
The Europa Park was my first ever amusement park to go to. Since then I've went to many but not a single one was as good as the europa park. Having an annual ticket since like 5 years straight, going to the park for me personally is more a hobby than actually seeking to have thrilling ride expiriences. I love just to go there, take in the atmosphere, relax and look at the people having a fun time. But also visting a show or riding an attraction. Even now after 5 years it's never getting boring and I'm always looking forward to have an enjoyable day at the Europa Park!
When I was little we would go to Europa Park every year. I love it so much and I have yet to find another theme park that comes close to it. I went to Europa Park before Euro Disney and that was the reason why I was kinda disappointed by Disneyland.
This really is the best park I've visited so far, I also visited WDW and I really do agree that Europa Park is better, it just depends on what ride and park expierence you like. Like the review and shots!
I grew up with Europa Park, Phantasialand, and all these other Entertainment-Parks in Germany. The Europa Park is the best of all, i was there like 15 times in my life (its 700km away, im from Germany, its like 120-150km to Phantasialand). Now its been a long break for like 8 years, i really should go there soon, again!😍 (im 30) Great Videofootage btw! I'd love to ride your american rollercoasters, but even a holiday there would be too high-prizy for me :D Have a good one Amigo, thanks for that vid.
They have announced that there will be a new themed area with a new rollercoaster. When they first mentioned it they said it would open in 2021 but we don't know whether the fire at piraten in batavia moved that or not. For a type of coaster I don't think we'll see a big dipper or an extreme spinning coaster since these are both low capacity rides (at least for Europa Park). When you're thinking of a new ride for this park capacity has to be 1500 persons per hour or higher to be able to fit in.
Its on my nr.1 spot so far, blue fire, silverstar, wodan etc etc. Beer, food, beautifull setting and theming. Flower galore. Visit it with Halloween... they have over 500000 pumpkins... :D
Were in Oct 2019 one day only. Great place to get entertained along with all the family. I suppose at least 3 days would have needed to go around all the attractions.
Great video! I lived next to the park for many years. At the end of novermber this year a new water park will open next to the europa park. Its called Rulantica and they say there is nothing in the world like this. Its also owned by the mack family. The parks will be connected
Yeah,they are building a new thrill coasters with 8 inversions.Its been called the most spectacular Rollercoaster in Europe and should be a Big Dipper Coaster 2.0.Come back in Summer 2023 when the ride is finished and ride it.As you can see on my name i am a big Europapark fan and know everything about the Park.I hope you come back once,when the new coaster is finished.And also ride Pirates in Batavia.As we Europapark fans say:Kein Europapark besuch ist was wert,ohne Piraten in Batavia gefahren zu sein.That means:An Europapark Visit is useless without riding Pirates in Batavia.
I like the special decoration stuff like the training unit of the spacestation MIR just above the q-line of Euro-MIR. You should just go upstairs to see it a little closer. They bought it from the Russian State...🚀
I loved Europa park, it was beautiful and I really enjoyed most of the rides. The only thing I regret a little bit is that I stayed for a second day. We stayed at the camping grounds which is great by the way! It has an amazingly cosy feel for such a big place, we were able to swim and enjoy many other things. However Europa park is quite an intens park, the theming is really beautiful but it's a lot. After already being there for a full day and having a lack of sleep, it was hard to find some places to have a quiet rest, but that could also be because we went during the summer holidays. So I definitely have no regrets about going, but make sure you have enough energy for a second day. It is a lot of walking and a lot of stimulation.
Really nice review. I guess Europa Park is such an amazing place to be. The theming looks so nice and due to the Owner, they operate there coaster so efficient. I hate seeing bad operations. I just don't get the fight between "enthusiasts" who argue which Park (in Germany/Europe/ World) is the absolute best. All Parks got something nice and the best park is the one you are in right now, enjoy the place you are at. Being a coaster enthusiast means that you enjoy those parks and i am sure you can enjoy the europa park just by watching and not riding.
I love roller coasters but this is for sure one of my favorite amusement parks not because of roller coaster but because of everything else but you do need more than one day there.
We have been to Eurpapark two times, and we did enjoy it a loooot :) We have been once during winter, and although there is of course some attractions which are closed (like water ones...), it's worth to have a trip overthere during the short winter opening for its maaaagic decoration ! Just magic !
Europapark is my home park, I get to visit it at least once a year and it's absolutely amazing. It has such a large variety of attractions that it never get's boring. The waiting times are very moderate because their dispatches are incredibly fast and of course the Theming is outstanding. 😍. I'm very happy with Europapark being my home park.
On rcdb you can read that there will be a new Mack-Rides coaster in 2021 most likely a steel sitdown coaster. And it will be in a new theme area (Croatia, Poland or Romania).
the trouble with being able to pick your own seats is that it is a huge source of delay for the ride. it better for the majority of people to not give the option
i was there and they had a train that drove through the park. We where at the rear seats and those clowns came. They were really funny, they splashed the people on the walkways or drank tea they made fun with us it was really nice
I didn't need convincing to go here. It's already on my list - a very long list of parks to attend. I will get there one day, preferably sooner rather than later.
Been there a couple off times ( i guess 10 days in totall) and yet still we discover new smal details every time again . Looking out for the the "New Pirates in Batavia" which sadly burned down last year * we were just a weekend before it happend There* .... Its a must if you love themeparks
I think you’re review is pretty much spot on. Pirates of Batavia is really good! (NOT worth a trip back just for that!) Food loop looks cool! In Eurosat (#400 for me in ‘02), IMO - your not missing much - unless they revamp it to be something incredible! Enjoy reading these.
Yes it is. But it’s been done very, very well. Plus, it’s a bit more gory, which is great in Europe. Too many Americans get offended at the gory scenes, so they are toned down to be “happier’, which is stupid.
I'm curious how you compare it to the World Showcase at EPCOT (besides the lack of coasters) as well as Busch Gardens Williamsburg. Those seem like the most straight forward US parks to compare it to. Also, how does the theming compare to Efteling?
@@CoasterStudios given your focus on coasters and thrills, I have a feeling you won't care much for EPCOT. And frankly, almost everything they have done to the park in the last 20 years has undone the things that made it unique and cool. So even with Guardians, I don't think you'll find it very interesting. The World Showcase is still mostly cool but they are slowly ruining it too. I personally happen to love EPCOT but more for what it was in the 90s than what it is now. As for Busch Gardens Williamsburg, there's obviously nothing I can say about that park that you don't already know. In my opinion, it is probably the most well rounded theme park in the country in terms of balancing theming, entertainment, food, lands, rides and coasters. Certainly they don't have a coaster line up that puts them in the top 10 but the overall package is amazing.
Ive been here when i was like 9 in 2012 been waiting to go there for 9 years because it was the best place i have ever been to ,as a kid it just looked so special ,had a chance to go again and broke my arm while in germany ahh i still cant regret it..
Do you want me to email you? 🤣 I have never understood the hype for Europa Park! Yes, it's very pretty, had great food, and amazing operations..... but for me, the rides were so lacklustre! Its like they went for quantity over quality. Arthur is the only ride there that really stood out to me. Most of the coasters were average, and the dark rides were of a poor quality too (except Arthur). For me it's not even the best park in Germany, let alone the world! But, we're all different and the world would be a boring place if it we all agreed with each other!
Well what is your favorite park in Germany then? Honestly though while I haven't been to Europa park, I will say I really enjoy these kinds of parks, like Tivoli and Efteling.
It depends really if you're a coaster enthusiast or a theme park enthusiast. I love the theming and everything of theme parks but I'm mainly a coaster enthusiast and therefore I think that Portaventura is the best theme park in Europe.
Diary of a RollerCoaster Girl that last part is something that nobody seems to get, especially in the roller coaster community. Everyone thinks that ur opinion is wrong and u must think like them
Europa Park is owned by the Mack family, also founders of Mack rides. That's why there are so many Mack rides.
Yes he said the same...
@@famousge3316 where?
When he mentioned that the park was basically the Mack Rides testing grounds. Indirect but true
@@drdewott9154 Oh, I didn't know he meant that they owned it by that.
Dave yes. I am aware. I actually got to visit the MACK Rides factory while I was in Germany, and they got to tell me all about it!
We can feel in your video that you've been amazed by Europa Park.
You are, according to me, the best theme park reviewer . You have a very clear English, and as a French speaker, it's easy for me to understand your videos.
I'm waiting your review of Phantasialand !
Qu’est que t’as avec l’accent anglais des français 😂
He's french?? Doesn't sound like it at all! :o
Have you seen his review on Efteling though? He's showing his true colours over there :)
I agree totally. This is an outstanding review!

Kinda like Hershey Park with the hospitality.
The whole rollercoaster "silver Star" is a Mercedes Benz product Placement. The Mercedes Formula 1 cars are called Silver Star
I skated in the ice show in Europapark in the 90's for 4 years (the ice shows started in '92, which i skated in).
I love the park SO much, and I loved working there. It really felt like being part of the family back then. I know the Macks too. They were really good to us!
It really is my fave park, and I think it's better than Euro Disney. Cheaper to get in too!
Edit: PS the guy at the front of the camel is my friend Carlos from Brazil! Great guy 😊
Nice to see someone from Brazil helping others have a bit of magic in the real world. I'm from Brazil and I would love to visit Europa Park and Germany in general.
They almost doubled the price the last 5 years
@@oosthakker they also doubled the attraction quantity and quality
@@oosthakker It is still shockingly cheap compared to Disney, around 60€ per day is totally fair for what is on offer.

Anyhow, have a nice evening and thanks for the interesting watch. :)
I have to say, I was living in Stuttgart for almost a year and visited Europa Park about 6 times. I LOVE this park and hold it in high regards. I love the roller coasters, dark rides, food and entertainment but I love the theming most of all. I was fortunate enough to be there around Halloween so I got to see the park decorated for Halloween with thousands of pumpkins. I also got to go to Horror Nights, their version of Halloween Horror Nights. It was pretty cool and while I wasn't able to understand everything being said, it still made for a great time. I'm trying to plan a trip back to Germany and plan on visiting Europa Park again. It's amazing!!! No,not quite Disneyish but it has a feel for its own.
I've only heard one person dislike Europa Park. They said it was too much like a Disney park, and they don't really like those.
Seeing as I consider Disneyland a home park, that's really exciting to me.
I went here when I was 10 years old and I can’t wait to get back one day. Such an amazing park.
it´s really nice to watch your video. I lived there for like 4 months last year as employee of Europa park :). I lived almost in park, right behind my appartment was gate for employees to the Grimm´s enchanted forest. I was there literally every day, i know every single one atraction and places there. It is like second home for me with lot of memories :)
This is an enchanting place. I am from Alsace, so it is within reach. I have been there at least 12 times. I loved it.
Ah yes. Europa Park. Our customer. I can totally understand why you were that amazed by the park. I got to visit it after we launched their kids club website a few years ago. And yeah, I'm not a coaster fan so I really could enjoy much more in that park than I ever could in Phantasialand, Moviepark or Efteling. There is just so much other stuff to do and see.
One of my favorite memories is in that fairytale area, being spit on by one of those frog statues out of nowhere. :D
Finally getting here in May 2024! Beyond excited, bring on Voltron! 👍
I grew up there :)
We had good connectrions with the Macks for a while when they where a customer of my father.
Now I live in Berlin :D
Hope to come back soon.
Clemensalive the comment is a scam about instagram
Europapark is the best, I’m sad that you couldn’t ride eurosat cancan coaster (that coaster in the epcot styled ball) cuz it’s really good.
I visited Europapark like 30 times and I never get bored of going there. I always have a great time.
Another Swiss UA-cam User i know
so nice to hear you talking about the EuropaPark :) Im livin in SouthGermany(Bavaria) and i am lucky to visit the europaPark once a year.... you should have mentioned the In-Area-Hotels aswell, talking about this wonderful immersion :) regardless, absolutely OnPoint presentation of this mindblowing amusement park, I share every little part of this review!
The best about Europa Park is that I can travel to it on the German Autobahn at 250kph.
:)
Have you tried traveling back home at 250kph beeing totaly exhausted and tired? I know what that is like. In the end I tailed up to a truck from Offenburg till Karlsruhe at 80 kph all the way. XD
@@andreasmartin9296 I am from Switzerland so I dont have hours to drive as fast as i want.
@@Homogenisierer I've been living in Valais for one year. Best parts of driving between Karlsruhe and Brig was the Lötschbergtunnel and the relaxed Swiss Autobahn - turned on cruise controll and never touched it again. Hands free for coffee. I loved it!

Great review Taylor! And it's absolutly on point. I've been at Europa Park last year and must confirm everything you said. In my opinion more thrill rides would be a good thing.
Mack already confirmed that they are going to build a new thrill coaster in the upcoming years. Possibly in the center area of the park.
That being said - I really really would love to ride Blue Fire with Time Traveller trains :D
Ive went to Europa Park this past summer- and hell yeah its the best park (ive visited). Its just gorgeous and the overall experience is great. The rides are good, i liked them and dont think theyre bad like some other people think they are, but yes a new thrill coaster is something i also want, they said that they will build one in the future and they will be getting a new Eastern European area, so probably Czech Republic, Poland or Hungary.
Overall yeah Europa Park is amazing and i wished i went 2 days, and i really want to get back there eventually
I grew up with Europa Park, so every time I visit another theme park it just can`t be compared. Disney World is nice and beautiful, but there are way too many open spaces without any theming. But another thrill coaster at Europa Park would be really nice!
I feel like the three thrill rides are enough haha. But I was there right after quarantine, where only 10000 people were allowed in and you could basically ride Silverstar, get off, no queue and ride again lol
i would really like a time traveler (silver dollar city) style rework of Euro-Mir.
I’m going to Germany with my school for German exchange and I might go there I asked my German exchange partner and she said she will ask her parents.
Amusment parks are more and more popular here as a summer entertainment. The parks are more empty at the start of the season. So please ask, it's worth the money.
Serge Wauben hahah ya
@@genevievefisher3779 Hope you liked it! Can't wait to go there to compare it to 6 Flags here or something.
Great review! You're 100% spot on. My wife and I visited Europa Park 2 years ago when we saw it on a 10 day Bavarian rental car trip during Halloween and loved it. We found it much better themed and enjoyable than Disneyland Californian and Disneyland Paris. We loved it so much that we're going again for Easter this year during our 2 week Europe vacation. I do like the fact it's not well known outside of Europe because it can stay less crowded (hopefully). IIRC, I think Europa Park is larger than Disneyland California and Paris. You really do need to take the little train around to visit the different themed countries.
Wow so beautiful, lots of flowers there With a thousand colors, what a European Park
Possibly our favourite theme park we’ve ever visited, I’m pleased you loved it too
Europa Park is such an amazing place and easily my favourite park out there. There’s so much charm, immersion and attraction variety in the park.
ill visit europa park for the second time next week and im super exited. last time i went i really loved it! you can feel the excitemend of being a child there no matter how old you are, the food is not as overpriced as it is in other parks and theres a lot to do for people who like roller coasters and also people like me who are huge scaredy cats. its so nice there!!
You did a wonderful job reviewing and editing! I cannot wait to check out Europa Park myself.
It´s my most favourite park. I am a club member and been to that park 4 times since September already. It´s amazing me every time and it´s feels like home. Everything about it is so passionate. It´s crazy how much love and passion they´ve put into any detail. Crazy how much there is to discover. I´ve been going there over 20 years now and i still discover attractions that i didn`t know were there. THANKS MACK FAMILY
I know it´s 5 years to late but the patk is getting a new thrilling roller coaster in 2024 that will be incredible
I Visit Europa Park in 2017 with my Family , and we will go again next month :)
Greece, Iceland, and France are my favorites, plus my family is from Greece, so that adds to it.
I feel like Mack and Europa Parks next huge coaster could be a giga. After the success with the Mack hypers, like DC Rivals, they might be ready to go 300+ feet
They won't. Silver Star's noise level was already at the limit for the local residents. They even had to install a shield at the first drop to shield Rust from noise and screams, and Europa-Park may only operate Silver Star until 8pm, even if the park is open longer.
Micheal Mack suggested that the next coaster would be an Xtreme Spinning Coaster, but that sounded like a very loose idea.
I have been to Europa park back in the 90s as a child and it has always been my absolute fav theme park ever. I have only been to Disney Paris, and Hongkong, I have not been to any theme park /amusement park in USA to compare it with.. but from a child perspective it was thrilling and fun and always wanted to go again but sadly it was far from our summer travel destination which is Munich ❤️ The best ride that I have ever tried was the dome rollercoaster I cannot recall what the real name of the ride but it was fun.. rollercoaster in the dark!!
Great video, very good review! I have been regularly to Europa park since 1982 and I totally agree with you! However Ed the mouse is not a copy of Disney, it is the symbol of the first coasters built by Mack Rides. Wild Mouse coaster
i went to Disney Paris after being at Europa Park, and my feeling is that Disney is for little kids, while Europa Park is better suited for a more mature audience. The rides are more fun and everything feels new and fresh.
We were yesterday (September 1st, 2021) there and and due to the Pandemic they were only 10.000 people allowed into the park instead of 25.000 (vaccinated, tested or recovered was the condition and you had to buy the tickets in advance).
All the attractions were in operation but some indoor shows and a number of dining places were closed but that didn't bother us to much. Average waiting time was 20 minutes I would say perfect!
“I highly recommend using the bathroom in this section”
This is why we love you Taylor
My favorite place in the world. My happy place, my piece of heaven.
The best park in the universe.
They have everything, for every age.
No matter if you're not a kid anymore, you have to try even the kids stuff. They are full with magic.
So much fun so much things to do, you can never get bored.
They have everything you need.
And don't need.
No one will ever regret for visiting there.
I've been there close to ten times.
I never get tired of this place, they are always adding new stuff.
Can't wait to be there again
Hi, I'm living 2 hours away from Europa Park and i go there at least twice a year. I recommend going there on the halloween period where they completely relook the park (they have the records for most pumpkins in the world if I'm not wrong) which is fantastic. I love how their queues are made so that u're never bored when you are waiting even if it's a 1h30 queue. They are currently building an aquapark for end of 2019 which should be one of the biggest in europe too. And they planned to build a big thrill coaster after that. I loved ur video because it described my favourite park since I'm a child so well.
You said it was not your favorite park in europe , what park in europe you liked more ?
KeepKoopa he said Phantasialand
How about a FoodLoop coaster parody
Cross Crease Hockey lol
Cross Crease Hockey YES
I think it counts as a credit
Its the best place I have visited in my LIFE amazing memories and just unreal... I plan to go there one more time for sure!!!
I went there a few times as a kid (I grew up in Switzerland) I was so young, but I remember it being such a cool place! Loved it more than Disney Land Paris! I live in the US now, but I so need to go there again someday as an adult!
Great vid...booked my first trip to ep in a few months!!
Definitely the best themepark reviewer on the planet.
10 to 15 minute videos and gets what people need to hear and see into that timeframe. 👍
I like your filming very much...you showed the beauty of that park perfectly...this could be an EP-advert, but the park really is that good and that beautiful...you just captured the qualities very well...a big thumbs up for that...
My brother did a week long camp at EuropaPark hosted by Bayern Munich (as in the soccer team) where they played soccer in the morning and went in the park in the afternoons
Scandinavia was one of the best part of Europapark imo it hosted Pirates in Batavia - it's in renovation rn because of a fire that happened in the attraction in 2018
No, Piraten in Batavia in in the netherlands. But scandinavia is behind them.
Because of your video I am going to Europa park!
I went there with my family three weeks ago and oh my god what a great park. At first I was a bit puzzled that we bought 2-days tickets (cause I live in France and here the parks don't really require more than one day, yes even Disneyland) but I am so glad we went for two days. The first day was really really crowded cause it was a holiday in France and since the park is right next to the French border it was a huge day in terms of attendance. We had the chance to ride Silver Star twice but we didn't get to ride Blue Fire, CanCan Coaster and Atlantica SuperSplash that day, since the queues were over 90 minutes on those rides all day. On the second day though it was far less crowded, we got to ride Blue Fire twice, Silver Star twice (again) and Timbur and Euromir again. All in all it was an awesome weekend in what is one of my top parks in the world. Would do it again!
You can spend daaaays here. And i mean it :). In September, i'll be staying for a whole week! I love this park so much and the food is freaking awesome! Especially in the hotels. ALSO, as a hotel guest you get to enter an hour before the park opens to the normal folks ^^. Meaning you can basically ride your faf coaster a couple of times before the waiting begins. Best thing is, it's still growing. So more Roller Coasters might get added :). Enjoy your stay if you goo. For me it is the best park in the world.
The Europa Park was my first ever amusement park to go to. Since then I've went to many but not a single one was as good as the europa park. Having an annual ticket since like 5 years straight, going to the park for me personally is more a hobby than actually seeking to have thrilling ride expiriences. I love just to go there, take in the atmosphere, relax and look at the people having a fun time. But also visting a show or riding an attraction. Even now after 5 years it's never getting boring and I'm always looking forward to have an enjoyable day at the Europa Park!
When I was little we would go to Europa Park every year. I love it so much and I have yet to find another theme park that comes close to it. I went to Europa Park before Euro Disney and that was the reason why I was kinda disappointed by Disneyland.
"I peed next to a gnome." There's a sentence I never expected to hear on a coaster channel. Or any other channel, really.
This really is the best park I've visited so far, I also visited WDW and I really do agree that Europa Park is better, it just depends on what ride and park expierence you like. Like the review and shots!
I convinced my parents to take me for two days this summer for the first time, thanks to this video :3
I grew up with Europa Park, Phantasialand, and all these other Entertainment-Parks in Germany.
The Europa Park is the best of all, i was there like 15 times in my life (its 700km away, im from Germany, its like 120-150km to Phantasialand). Now its been a long break for like 8 years, i really should go there soon, again!😍 (im 30)
Great Videofootage btw!
I'd love to ride your american rollercoasters, but even a holiday there would be too high-prizy for me :D
Have a good one Amigo, thanks for that vid.
I can tell the designers took their time making the park
10:25 Hi taylor Europapark has planed a ,,new big rollercoaster‘‘ for the near furure.
any news on what it will be?
@@Hoosje I believe it will be a unique Mack Rides roller coaster.
@@Hoosje I hope a big dipper, a extreme spinningcoaster or something like dc rivals
They have announced that there will be a new themed area with a new rollercoaster. When they first mentioned it they said it would open in 2021 but we don't know whether the fire at piraten in batavia moved that or not. For a type of coaster I don't think we'll see a big dipper or an extreme spinning coaster since these are both low capacity rides (at least for Europa Park). When you're thinking of a new ride for this park capacity has to be 1500 persons per hour or higher to be able to fit in.
@@dennis-8baan98 i hope its either a mack hyper or giga
Its on my nr.1 spot so far, blue fire, silverstar, wodan etc etc. Beer, food, beautifull setting and theming. Flower galore. Visit it with Halloween... they have over 500000 pumpkins... :D
Were in Oct 2019 one day only. Great place to get entertained along with all the family. I suppose at least 3 days would have needed to go around all the attractions.
Another awesome place in Germany is Heide-Park.
Just wait until you visit Tokyo Disneysea, you will have a new favorite park.
Great video! I lived next to the park for many years. At the end of novermber this year a new water park will open next to the europa park. Its called Rulantica and they say there is nothing in the world like this. Its also owned by the mack family. The parks will be connected
Yeah,they are building a new thrill coasters with 8 inversions.Its been called the most spectacular Rollercoaster in Europe and should be a Big Dipper Coaster 2.0.Come back in Summer 2023 when the ride is finished and ride it.As you can see on my name i am a big Europapark fan and know everything about the Park.I hope you come back once,when the new coaster is finished.And also ride Pirates in Batavia.As we Europapark fans say:Kein Europapark besuch ist was wert,ohne Piraten in Batavia gefahren zu sein.That means:An Europapark Visit is useless without riding Pirates in Batavia.
I like the special decoration stuff like the training unit of the spacestation MIR just above the q-line of Euro-MIR. You should just go upstairs to see it a little closer. They bought it from the Russian State...🚀
I loved Europa park, it was beautiful and I really enjoyed most of the rides. The only thing I regret a little bit is that I stayed for a second day. We stayed at the camping grounds which is great by the way! It has an amazingly cosy feel for such a big place, we were able to swim and enjoy many other things. However Europa park is quite an intens park, the theming is really beautiful but it's a lot. After already being there for a full day and having a lack of sleep, it was hard to find some places to have a quiet rest, but that could also be because we went during the summer holidays. So I definitely have no regrets about going, but make sure you have enough energy for a second day. It is a lot of walking and a lot of stimulation.
Really nice review. I guess Europa Park is such an amazing place to be. The theming looks so nice and due to the Owner, they operate there coaster so efficient. I hate seeing bad operations.
I just don't get the fight between "enthusiasts" who argue which Park (in Germany/Europe/ World) is the absolute best. All Parks got something nice and the best park is the one you are in right now, enjoy the place you are at. Being a coaster enthusiast means that you enjoy those parks and i am sure you can enjoy the europa park just by watching and not riding.
I love roller coasters but this is for sure one of my favorite amusement parks not because of roller coaster but because of everything else but you do need more than one day there.
We have been to Eurpapark two times, and we did enjoy it a loooot :) We have been once during winter, and although there is of course some attractions which are closed (like water ones...), it's worth to have a trip overthere during the short winter opening for its maaaagic decoration ! Just magic !
For me the europa park's roller coasters are AWESOMES!
It is my favourite park in the world! Fastest operations I've ever witnessed and it's so creative :)
+ I completely agree with your Disney opinions!
Europapark is my home park, I get to visit it at least once a year and it's absolutely amazing. It has such a large variety of attractions that it never get's boring. The waiting times are very moderate because their dispatches are incredibly fast and of course the Theming is outstanding. 😍. I'm very happy with Europapark being my home park.
On rcdb you can read that there will be a new Mack-Rides coaster in 2021 most likely a steel sitdown coaster. And it will be in a new theme area (Croatia, Poland or Romania).
the trouble with being able to pick your own seats is that it is a huge source of delay for the ride. it better for the majority of people to not give the option
Finally you released this!!!!
i was there and they had a train that drove through the park. We where at the rear seats and those clowns came. They were really funny, they splashed the people on the walkways or drank tea they made fun with us it was really nice
I didn't need convincing to go here. It's already on my list - a very long list of parks to attend. I will get there one day, preferably sooner rather than later.
Thank you for this video. Europapark is my absolute favorite place in the world. Greetings from Germany ❤️
Super cool! I really want to hear what do you think about Tokyo disney sea
Been there a couple off times ( i guess 10 days in totall) and yet still we discover new smal details every time again . Looking out for the the "New Pirates in Batavia" which sadly burned down last year * we were just a weekend before it happend There* .... Its a must if you love themeparks
I think you’re review is pretty much spot on. Pirates of Batavia is really good! (NOT worth a trip back just for that!) Food loop looks cool! In Eurosat (#400 for me in ‘02), IMO - your not missing much - unless they revamp it to be something incredible! Enjoy reading these.
Pirates of Batavia is just a Pirates of the Caribbean ripoff
Yes it is. But it’s been done very, very well. Plus, it’s a bit more gory, which is great in Europe. Too many Americans get offended at the gory scenes, so they are toned down to be “happier’, which is stupid.
I just love this park so much 😍😍😍
Silver Star is themed to the F1 team owned by Mercedes, which is huge in Germany.
love your park reviews!!
Seem great , I have to do it and, I really want to go to Rulantica to :)
They didn't staple me at all when I went, I was able to get some great air on silverstar by creating some room
Im from Switzerland and EuropaPark is definitly my homepark and i was there like more than 20 times and it never got boring
I'm curious how you compare it to the World Showcase at EPCOT (besides the lack of coasters) as well as Busch Gardens Williamsburg. Those seem like the most straight forward US parks to compare it to. Also, how does the theming compare to Efteling?
Zac G I have never actually been to Epcot. I don't have any plans to go until Guardians opens.
@@CoasterStudios given your focus on coasters and thrills, I have a feeling you won't care much for EPCOT. And frankly, almost everything they have done to the park in the last 20 years has undone the things that made it unique and cool. So even with Guardians, I don't think you'll find it very interesting. The World Showcase is still mostly cool but they are slowly ruining it too. I personally happen to love EPCOT but more for what it was in the 90s than what it is now.
As for Busch Gardens Williamsburg, there's obviously nothing I can say about that park that you don't already know. In my opinion, it is probably the most well rounded theme park in the country in terms of balancing theming, entertainment, food, lands, rides and coasters. Certainly they don't have a coaster line up that puts them in the top 10 but the overall package is amazing.
Ive been here when i was like 9 in 2012 been waiting to go there for 9 years because it was the best place i have ever been to ,as a kid it just looked so special ,had a chance to go again and broke my arm while in germany ahh i still cant regret it..
Do you want me to email you? 🤣
I have never understood the hype for Europa Park!
Yes, it's very pretty, had great food, and amazing operations..... but for me, the rides were so lacklustre! Its like they went for quantity over quality. Arthur is the only ride there that really stood out to me. Most of the coasters were average, and the dark rides were of a poor quality too (except Arthur).
For me it's not even the best park in Germany, let alone the world!
But, we're all different and the world would be a boring place if it we all agreed with each other!
Well what is your favorite park in Germany then?
Honestly though while I haven't been to Europa park, I will say I really enjoy these kinds of parks, like Tivoli and Efteling.
It depends really if you're a coaster enthusiast or a theme park enthusiast. I love the theming and everything of theme parks but I'm mainly a coaster enthusiast and therefore I think that Portaventura is the best theme park in Europe.
Diary of a RollerCoaster Girl that last part is something that nobody seems to get, especially in the roller coaster community. Everyone thinks that ur opinion is wrong and u must think like them
O nice
