You guys need to go again. You missed a few things on camera the Polar bears, Stingrays in the net area, the Seal and Dolphin show, but sucks that the monorail is out of service love your videos
Loved this video. I laughed so much at the seal enclosure that no noise came out. "What was that?" was said in such a funny way. You two are the best 👌
I'd seen a POV of Leviathan but I had no idea it had that awesome station, queue, entrance and zero car. What a great-looking ride. The voice acting for the leviathan itself is incredible, too; reminds me of Smaug from The Hobbit.
It’s such a great overall experience
It’s sooo rough and bad
I had my eyes closed the entire time lol
The leviathan station looks incredible but the views from the swings makes me want to travel to Australia! Looks like you guys are having an amazing time!
Another nice & good vlog, really enjoyed and loved the good selection of rides, coasters and attractions. Shame monorail wasn't open, but yeah maybe next time in future? Get some nice & amazing beautiful views on that if visit back in future? Same to the ride similar to Rameses Revenge that used to be at Chessington WOA and other attractions that weren't open this time around involving log flume. Nice POV on Leviathan, wish we had something like this next at Chessington WOA, themed around Africa maybe or something different? Be epic lol. Sad couldn't film POV's on rides, attractions as love seeing POV's as gives us audience members an insight to what we can expect on the ride before experiencing especially with types of people like myself who are afraid of certain attractions & not at right level yet to experience going upside down. Hopefully one day be allowed to get POV's, but well see. Loved the stunt show, amazing tricks in there and stunts, would love to see something like that in the UK at maybe London Resort if happens? For summer time? Or other parks? But again well have to see? Say it alot, but Dreamland Margate needing new rides, attractions and coasters & think maybe Sea Rescue be a good ride concept for that park in Kent? As its near the sea? Could be themed around a British theme and have launch on its layout. Be a good ride suggestion in my opinion, but then again so will other rides & attractions around the rest of UK & World. But cheers for another good vlog & video. Really enjoyed and look forward to now watching Dreamworld Vlog. 😀👍
Love how you two work as a team. Great content. Keep it up!
Cheers Mark!
Leviathan really does look amazing. It absolutely flew round that track. Great looking coaster too. The Australian parks do seem well looked after. The main pathway at the start of the vlog gave me Epcot vibes.
It’s a great ride!
glad you get the support from the parks to do the povs and such like, great to see what things are like elsewhere
Firstly Charlotte’s tan is really coming on. Though a little burnt by the end of this video. Hopefully the after sun helps?
I use to love a wooden coaster and Leviathan didn’t seem to disappoint. It was great POV from the front row.
Great views from Trident.
The jet ski’s were a very unique way to ride a coaster.
A water ride Charlotte enjoyed. I couldn’t believe my ears. 😂😂
Very impressive food area.
I use to love the water skiing and Jet ski stunt show Seaworld Orlando use to have, so it was nice to see the Oz version.
Another impressively theme park with a great mixture of coasters and animals. A great end to your time on the Gold Coast.
Thank you! We had a great day!
OMG Charlotte, that impression of a seal had everyone in my house cracking up 😆😆😆😆😆😆
Thanks guys! Nothing better than a new woodie ... the sights, the soulsa, the smells ... heaven!
It was epic!
Awesome video Shawn and Charlotte… you have visited before I have and live here !! … The Leviathan looks mad … Seaworld has had awesome rides in the past but one thing always true was the care for animals …
It’s a great park and Leviathan is a fantastic coaster!
Best vlog ever! Most well executed you have done, in my opinion. Setting new high standards in presenting for yourself. Loved Charlotte's little solo, would love to hear more insights from her. Pretty sure she must has some great insights as well as interesting perspectives would love to hear. Both of you have quirky personalities which makes your vlogs more unique. Keep them coming! Please tell me you will make a road trip montage or something would love to see the trip to sydney over on sandbrook adventures.
Thank you very much!
Shaun I’ve been following you and Charlotte for years and honestly you are absolutely on fire with these vlogs You are both brilliant and I love watching every minute.
Thank you so much, we’re having a great time!
Oh wow I had no idea how big sea world is with so many beautiful stunning views of the gold coasts backdrop landscaping attractions rides on offer here especially a mention for The leviathan wooden rollercoaster that looks like one impressive ride even the entrances station also the theming that looks a bit like marvel Disney combined. I’m exactly the same as you Shawn I’m not a fan of marine animal shows either however the stunt show was awesome, but more complimentary to both of you great vlog as always.
It’s such a great park!
the best park ever which has sea animals and attraction the best park great
Went here ages ago back in 2016 watching this for a bit of nostalgia
Thank you for filming your experience in Australia\Asia. That area is a place that most people including me probably will never be able to make it to. Thanks for letting us experience it with you!
Thank you! We’re having a great time!
Asia?
@@KaydenAP i think they mean Australasia/oceania in general. Because its just really far away from the states
Your glowing vlogging makes me proud to be an Aussie! G O T A K O R
Thank you!
Wow loved the entrance etc to laviathan and the park looks gorgeous love the lakes and that pie that Charlotte had looked yummy it all looked wonderful thankyou lovelies see you tomorrow enjoy xxxxx
They’ve done such a great job with it!
Would love a ranking of all Aussie coasters once you’re done 😅
Very cool park. I like the viewing points over the dolphins from the skychairs. So much better than usa
It might be a few years before we can afford to visit, but Australia for our theme park fix had never been a consideration before and I am sure many viewers will be planning trips on the back of your excellent coverage across both channels
There’s so much to see out there!
I'm really enjoying this trip with you!
Thanks for joining us!
Hi shawn and Charlotte brilliant vlog the woody looked amazing. The themeing is amazing there . I really enjoyed sharing it with you both. Looking forward to seeing the next vlogs. Thanks for sharing with us love to you both as always Tracey 💕 xxxx
Thanks for watching Tracey!
Love watching you too glad Charlotte in the videos all the time now and keep up with the good work guys 👍
Thank you so much!
Fantastic vlog and what a fantastic park thanks u guys
Thanks for watching Mick!
Almost think you were in California... looks so similar.! Nice going along with you.
Wow really enjoyed that that park looked awesome 😁😁😄😃😃
Loved it guys what another great vlog and the one I have been waiting for! :)
Thanks for joining us!
Woodies backwards seem to be an acquired taste. POV looked so intense and very sickly! 😆. Leviathan queue line has raised the bar... 👌
Leviathan has such an amazing queue!
11:27 Looks like some of the theming at the theme parks in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. They have a Greek themed roller coaster there also.
I went in October and I literally loved the trident, leviathan and storm coaster
Leviathan really tears through the layout and the whole experience of the ride definitely makes it stand out. Backwards is just nuts and is so disorienting and the fast transitions can feel like u get hit by a truck if you aren’t ready for them. Sticks out in Australia’s lineup alongside dc rivals and scooby doo. That triple down after the first turn is just absurd.
It’s such an epic ride!
Omg just went on this today was ment to go a last year but finally made it. This trip around. Amazing but never again big dip was crazy
The first full weekend of 2023 is a fact and we immediately decided to go because today we went going to Europa-Park. Together with my gf and some family members, we went to the German town of Rust to enjoy everything Europa-Park has to offer. In addition to the many attractions, we also enjoyed the beautiful Christmas decorations and of course the many lights, and sine you Shawn also did some parks, I thought of sharing you with my experience:
The park opened at 11 am, but we were already at the entrance at 10:30 am. We still had to exchange our voucher for tickets because with an Efteling subscription you can enter for free once. Something that we of course gratefully use. A little later we got in the park and we started our day in the German Allee.
It often happens that Europa-Park opens the Voletarium attraction earlier than the actual opening hours. That is also the case today and after a short waiting time, we boarded this flying theater. In the Voletarium you can fly over different countries in Europe. This way you fly over all kinds of famous sights such as the Eiffel Tower. There is also a short flight over the Netherlands, namely over a tulip field.
We went on the EP-Express next, a monorail and went to the back of the park. We got off in the Spanish area and went through the Märchenwald (Fairytale Forest) to ours first rollercoaster and that is Arthur. This roller coaster is actually more of a dark ride because most of it you pass along all kinds of scenes that come straight from the movie Arthur and the Minimoys. There are 2 passages that go a bit faster, but it's not really much. Still, it remains a nice combination of a dark ride and a roller coaster.
We continued in the park and in the app I saw that it is only a 5-minute wait for Pirates in Batavia. This dark ride burned down completely a few years ago, so everything was destroyed. Europa-Park then decided to completely rebuild the popular dark ride with the latest techniques. Unfortunately I was never able to do the old version, so I can't compare this new version with it. Fortunately, a ride on Piraten in Batavia 2.0 makes up for a lot because the dark ride is really beautiful! Something is happening everywhere and your eyes are really short. There are also some cool things to be found in this dark ride. You can find Roland Mack in this darkride. Roland Mack is the founder of Europa-Park. Also there is the boat with the survivors.
The next attraction we did is again a dark ride. In the Scandinavian area we find Snorri Touren. As the name suggests, this dark ride is all about Snorri, the mascot of Rulantica (the water park of Europa-Park). Just like with Pirates in Batavia, this dark ride is also beautifully finished and equipped with the latest technologies. We end up underwater with some mythical creatures. There is also a scene where you see and hear Snorri playing the drums. Just about the whole environment including some rocks sing along. Despite the fact that Snorri Touren is a very short dark ride, I think it is a nice attraction that you should definitely do during a visit to Europa-Park.
We leave the Scandinavian area behind and we head towards the Russian area. There we find the Spinning Coaster Euro Mir. I found this on previous visits to this park, the worst roller coaster in the park. Even today it more than lives up to that role and we are once again shaken in all directions. The highlight of this attraction remains the fun music in the queue.
Because Europa-Park has so many attractions, it may happen that some attractions do not have to wait at all. An example of this is Abenteuer Atlantis where I have never had to wait longer than 5 minutes. Also today we boarded directly and enjoy the interactive dark ride. The name says a lot, so we ended up in the underwater world of Atlantis. We shot fish and other sea creatures. Nice attraction with again a nice theme.
We had been in the park for a while now and we noticed that on our watch. It's already 12.45 pm, time to eat something. We did this in the Greek theme area between the houses that could come directly from the Greek island of Santorini. We also had a fantastic view of the water roller coaster Poseidon. We skipped this one today, because we didn't feel like getting wet.
At 2:10 pm we took a ride on Blue Fire. We have reserved our ride via the app, so we do not have to wait in the normal queue. Blue Fire is the only roller coaster in the park where you flip over. The ride starts with a reasonable launch but then the pace drops almost immediately due to the top hat that follows just after the launch. Fortunately, we still have that fantastic loop that you can race through in a smooth way. The roller coaster is a great combination of turns and inversions, making it clearly one of the better roller coasters in the park.
than we went to the Icelandic area, where we decided to take a ride on Wodan. This attraction is a wooden roller coaster built by GCI and is one of the better wooden roller coasters that I have been able to do. After waiting for half an hour, Wodan again does not disappoint. We are thrown in all directions and in no time we are back on the brakes.
Every time we came back to this fantastic park there is something new. Also today we had something new to discover because the Dschungel-Floßfahrt has changed name and theme. Dschungel-Floßfahrt was considered racist, so the park decided to close the attraction. The boat trip is now called Josefinas Kaiserliche Zauberreise and belongs to the Austrian themed area. The relaxing ride takes us to beautiful gardens and statues. There are graceful fences and there are many flowers. Although the attraction is not yet completely finished, I already think it is better than its predecessor. Europa-Park will provide the attraction with new boats this year, the rest of the expansion is currently on hold. So it remains to be seen what the park will decide in the future.
We left Austria behind us and we go to France. There we found some top attractions, which we definitely went on today. For example, we find here another dark ride around dinosaurs. What is special is that these prehistoric animals are cared for by an old lady, Madame Freudenreich. It should therefore come as no surprise that the attraction bears her name. Just like Snorri Touren, the darkride is on the short side, but it is beautifully finished.
Just like Blue Fire, we made an online reservation for Eurosat via the app. The free reservation system is very handy because we don't have to wait again. Unfortunately we only got a slot around 5 pm and it is still an hour. That's why we decided to try the roller coaster with VR. It costs us 6 euros per person, but it is a special experience. In retrospect, I found it mostly a nauseating experience.
Next to the gigantic sphere of Eurosat, you will find a gigantic roller coaster. I am of course talking about Silver Star. I really thought this B&M hyper coaster was a rattle last time. Fortunately, it was better today. The roller coaster will never really appeal to me, although the height and speed remain quite impressive.
Meanwhile it is already 5 pm and we made our ride on Eurosat. We were taken to the Moulin Rouge where the music in particular claims a leading role. It seems as if the indoor roller coaster moves to the tempo of the music. Along the way we come across a lot of references that link to Paris. This is how we encounter the Eiffel Tower. We also encounter the legs of a few dancers at the end of the ride.
It got dark and that means the lights are on. The French area is beautiful with all the lights and the Italian area is also beautiful. In Italy we find again 2 dark rides. The first is Piccolo Mondo and takes us to some romantic scenes where some famous places in Italy pass in review. The other darkride is Geisterschloss and that is a haunted house. We took a ride on both attractions.
This brings us back to the front of the park. There they had set up a cozy Christmas market and in the otherwise quiet garden, you can now enjoy some light objects. We ran into a lot of well-known fairy tales. Just think of the Bremen Town Musicians and Hansel & Gretel.
We took the EP-Express to Spain again. From this small area we are now moving to Portugal to try out an attraction that is only here in winter. That, of course, is the Ferris wheel. In the air we enjoyed all the lights in the park. For example, we saw Blue Fire that is completely lit up with a blue light. The towers of Euro-Mir also shine through the many lights. It should be clear that Europa-Park is not looking at a single euro when building their winter park.
We concluded in the Spanish hotel, where we enjoyed a delicious dinner in restaurant Don Quichotte. Europa-Park has once again proven why we still think this is the best park we have had the pleasure of visiting. Nowhere did we really have to wait long and the range of attractions remains great. Furthermore, I really recommend visiting Europa-Park during the winter. Almost the entire park is decorated with lights and Christmas decorations. There is an ice skating rink and a Christmas market. Even in winter, the park stands head and shoulders above the rest. Because nowhere have I visited a park that puts so much effort into their winter opening as here. Hopefully will have more theme parks to tell you all about!
Thanks for sharing!
I wanna visit there it looks Beautiful
Same!
It’s a great park!
I'm really enjoying this series and it reminds me of the Asia megatrip and USA roadtrip from a few years ago
Thank you!
Visited here, back in 2015, Leviathan looks awesome, what a fantastic addition to the park!
It’s a great coaster!
Look forward too the next.park
In ref to the tweets nice pics weather too is great
So much on the way!
Loved seeing you two go to this one. Great park.
18:11 Also, I hate to be that guy, but the Storm Coaster opened in 2014, not 2008
Omg I wish I know yiy came to thr park I am from thr Gold Coast I could show of show you guys around
Loved Charlottes seal impression! I want to know how you are coping with just hand luggage now, I’m sure you will have had to use some laundry facilities by now ! ( the odd things I think about!) xx
Thank you! We’re doing quite well with it all and have used the laundry room in the hotel!
Well well it just gets better ever park . Keep up the adveture
Thanks for joining us!
Loving this trip
The statues are massive outside Leviathan! Love the POV :) I would never try a wooden coaster backwards, I find them rough enough forward lol. Love watching it tho . Great stunt show lmao at truck boat. Sponge Bob and Patrick my favs too cute :)
Thanks for watching!
never expected u to come to my home park
Thanks for the trivia, i watched Inbetweeners 2 the other night haha great movie. I didnt think wet n wild ever had a dolphin encounter so thanks for clearing that up
Thanks for watching!
Good vlog! The back seat view of Leviathan at 8:23 is super awesome! It makes me wish I was at that park to ride it! And the whole park is super awesome! Luckly you have a good time at Sea World Gold Coast!
It’s a crazy back row ride!
Great Vlog as always Shawn and Charlotte
lovely vlog was the povs on coaster yours looked different shame you couldnt get other povs on other rides thanks for sharing
Thank you! They were our POV’s!
Can’t believe you didn’t see the dolphin show and the monerail used to be at expo 88
Opening times in Australia seem almost as bad as our own here in The UK 😁
Loving these videos from your latest adventure 😊
They are quiet short, especially for the summer holidays!
I was thinking the same lol
Looks amazing. You guys do amazing vlogs as always. 👍
Thank you!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Anytime. 👍
Looks like such a nice park, loving the vlogs so far from your trip 😎👍🏻
Thank you!
I wish Leviathan was here in the UK so we could all ride it. As much as I would like to go to Australia it’s not likely for me just yet. If Alton Towers, as good as Wicker Man is, got this as well OMG it would be incredible. Some good flat rides and smaller coasters here as well. I couldn’t help notice Charlotte is starting to burn under that hot sun☀️. Be careful guys😉
It’s a brilliant ride!
I was worried about Charlotte's shoulders!
The park looked fantastic 😍
in the 70s early 80s there used to be a giant man statue holding up the mono rail at blackpooo pleasure beach the statues were you were today really reminded me of that 😃
i was there the exact same day as you, Damn.edit: turns out you can see me in the back on storm-coaster at 18:04
Looks a good ride have to say the wicker man looks a better ride?
Would love to see Alton Towers make the back row on Wicker man backwards
Great vlog both of you 👍
Thank you!
Super excited for this video! You're not going to want to come back to the u.k aha
Thanks for watching!
Brilliant vlog
Thanks!
Excellent video Shawn and Charlotte from Sea World located on the Gold Coast, Australia! In this vlog, we share on ride povs from Leviathan, a brand-new wooden roller coaster that opened at the park in December 2022. Along with that, we experience everything that this beautiful park has to offer, including 3 other roller coasters, a variety of different attractions, and a fantastic stunt show! I can't write to see the next video on the channel from the trip, keep the good videos coming, Shawn and Charlotte, and big thumbs as well.,😀😃
did you not see the dolphins show. it's amazing.
wow what a beautiful park
It certainly is
When you come home from your trip to Australia u should do an updated video of your and Charlotte top 10 roller coaster in the world
I think this is my favourite theme park
It’s a great park in a beautiful location
Best seal impression ever NOT ha ha ha
This will be as close as I get to Australia.. loving the vlogs though..are you ready for the UK season opening?☀️
Thank you for watching! We’re very much looking forward to the new season!
Love all your videos ❤❤❤❤
Thanks!
Hi guys,I assume you went on the wooden coaster and swinger before the park opened as in the station there was noone else in there but off ride footage the queue was massive and the swinger there was noone else on with you but off ride footage the ride was full,great park and great that they have connected with you and given you tickets and fast passes etc so that's really kind of them🙂👍
Thanks for watching! The hospitality was amazing here, we filmed both rides prior to public opening!
Love ur vlogs!
Thanks!
Now that is what I call a view
Spectacular
Great vlog, soo jealous of Charlotte's tan, lol
Thanks Paul!
I'm looking forward to getting a night ride on Leviathan in a couple weeks! I wonder how it will be after warming up all day 👀
Have a great time!
16:31 You see those super weird track to support connectors on that Intamin? Never seen that before. Little U clamps holding track down to support. And they don't like, beef up the track in that section. Did that have a sprinkler system for the track on Leviathan? Probably going to need it being dry and hot Australia. That's really awesome on the water coaster how you drop into a tunnel, pop up then go underground. That's different.
It’s such a great ride!
Cant wait for you to visit adventure world in Perth because it was my home park when I lived out there a few years ago. Make sure you bring swimwear because it is a waterpark mixed in with a theme park. Best rides to get on there are abyss (really good underated coaster in my opinion) kraken and Goliath.
It’ll be on the way soon!
Great video it's a shame u didn't see dolphin show but hardvto squeeze everything in in 1 day looks like u had a great day can't wait to see your Sydney trip sydney so beautiful to like qld.
We had a great day!
I could tell during that Splash battle bit that Charlotte was sort of getting her own back on Shawn for making her go on Popeyes😂
Revenge at last
looed a great day brilliant vlog 😃
It was a fantastic day!
Before watching your review on Leviathan, I thought AIR TIME MONSTER! I was right 😊 xxx
Packed full of amazing airtime!
Leviathan is my number one coaster in Aus! Just in front of rivals and superman
Leviathan gives me flashbacks of lightning rod with the double down which is awesome
Backwards is definitely not a good idea on a wooden coaster! It works OK on steel but not on wood, steel taipans spinning seat is the best option of the three in my opinion. Jet rescue is the parks hidden gem! It's an amazing launch coaster!
It’s a fantastic coaster!
I'd really wish shawn and charlotte would revisit heidepark resort eventually
I’ve visited a few times and would like to return with Charlotte soon!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Hello shawn and Charlotte i am really glad you responded to my comment I am a big fan of your videos and wish your having a great time visiting themepark's around the world :)
Awesome video Guys
I haven’t been here I might have to this year! 🎉
I just made it to sea world can’t wait😊
Sea World has removed all mention of the monorail from their website. This is after insisting repeatedly that it was merely down whilst Leviathan was under construction and would be refurbished. They have shut down and removed the chairlift/gondola and the Sea World railway, which was similar to Dreamworld’s. Many will be bitterly disappointed if the monorail is also removed. People need to send feedback on their visit imploring Sea World to spend some coin to restore this iconic ride.
As for Vortex, it’s been down more often than it has run since it opened a year or so ago. I don’t know if they simply bought a lemon but I suspect they run it out of spec - it always seems to be running way too low. It’s like a car - you can drive it in first all the time but doing so is going to cause you continual mechanical grief.
Thanks for sharing. Hopefully we’ll see them get the monorail back in action!
My favourite park in Australia. A great balance for the whole family. As much as I love thrill rides, something that sea world somewhat lacks. I’m a dad now and this is a great family park. With rides for all, and plenty to see.
Slight disagreement.. storm coaster opened in 2013 not 2008.
It is however one of my favourite coasters. Not scary or a thrill ride. But a really enjoyable ride with perfect level of theming inside
It’s a great park!
It's not a huge park like Disney or Universal, but Buschgardens in Virginia (USA) is opening a new dark coaster that you sit on snowmobiles and go through a forest inside while some monster is supposed to be chasing you. I'm sure you all would love it. I can't wait to ride it this summer!
It looks great!
I went on the storm coaster I was only little I was terrified I held my dad so tight
Great explanation of all the rides! We just visited Sea World last February. Leviathan was amazing but a bit rough around the banks. Unfortunately Trident was down on the day we visited. I'm currently editing my Sea World vlog but I don't have great shots of the rides. Do you mind of we use some part of your clip in our video? I'll put credits in my video and a link to this video too. Thanks.
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately we don’t allow our footage to be reproduced, however we hope that you had fun!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide No problem! Thanks for responding.
Great vlog 👌
Thanks!
They used to have a very photogenic corkscrew.
Sea Viper was cool. You can see the exact layout still in NZ at Rainbows End though.
I’ve been there but have nether rid the leviathan because it was only just added
I got stung by a 3 inch jellyfish in Rhodes scuba diving, you should've seen my thigh! Wouldn't like to be stung by a bigger one!!! Xxx
That’s crazy!
Was the mood at the park when this was filmed abit somber? Just curious, especially with what happened on January 2nd...
Leviathan honestly looks insanely good.
It’s epic!
If you ever wanna test this roller coaster out, it is a little bit bumpy, but you’ll get used to it
great guys :)
