From watching this, it looks like the park didn't have as much funding as it needed to open, so they focussed more on making it look good to get people in to the park rather than making the park an enjoyable experience once you're there. #randomnozzle
Thanks for adding the travel information, It's a really good idea and will help a lot of people and give them a bit of confidence to maybe go themselves and seam less daunting. thanks for listening to your viewers!!
Please do a whole series of solo vlogs for each Theme Park. You could even call them a new name other than VLOGS, like a new series on the channel. We love group vlogs of course but solo vlogs have a different chilled out vibe which is great. They are more like Shawn the traveler instead of Shawn the presenter which the group vlogs feel like.
I also think that's a really good idea, although your group Vlogs are great your solo Vlogs have a totally different feel to them and tend to be a lot more informative.
einfach klasse wie man von Shawn mit durch die Parks genommen wird. Und ein toller Park. Just agree to Marc in german. Nice Vlog from a nice Park, Shawn.
I love how Shawn is posting comments about how he could make amazing improvements. I completely agree that he can do that, Infact I would love to see that a ride or a park completely designed by Shawn and some others maybe too. Shawn = The new John Wardley :)
Wow !!!! I'm only 15mins into the vlog and wow what a park, it looks amazing !!! Shock coaster looks stunning and so much better than the other models out there !!!
looks like a nice park, i luckily will be visiting in 2023 when i do a massive trip, your the inspiration for the insane twenty plus park trips i have been taking so thanks for showing it can be done
On yucatan: ollèlle ollallà faccela vedè faccelà toccà!! All this means in italian: ollelle ollalla let us see(the flower of the girl😂) let us touch (yeah that thing) A hug from italy!
Cute park, I Was just going to say that Shock reminds me of Rip Ride than you mentioned it's the same manufacturer. We're in Italy in 2 weeks, hope,we bump into a theme park :) Thanks for sharing your trip with us all 👍🏽
Went here today and i had a fantastic time. I loved the water rides at this park. Gets you very wet which is perfect as it was very hot. Even in july the park was very quiet. The longest queue we done was 15 mins for the new log flume. Shock is a very good coaster. That first part where you are launched into the airtime him into the non inverting loop was the hightlight of the ride. Btw still no lap bars on the water rides and still people standing on them.
Great vlog - loved the girls and teens! U should totally do a 'funniest moments' video series on ur channel with a compilation of all the funny moments in your vlogs!
Great to see a new park & such a pretty looking one too. Made a nice change for you to be on your own. That was an entertaining ride on Yucatan haha. Can't believe how quiet it was. Looks like a good time of year to go.
Hi Shawn, hope you will read this. The park has got a very big Crisis form 2015 to today. As you saw, the dark rides were not with full lights or effects, the buldings were discolored and the park in general was a bit "dead". There weren't so much people around, the rides were not all open and the theming was badly reduced in some areas. In the Southern italy people are rude, but always great people. In these years, Rainbow Magicland was quite an abandoned park. What a pity. BUT, recently Pillarstone italy (from KKR) Bought Rainbow Magicland. They will build an entire new area of the park. An impressive jungle area in the former kids area(that was awful), so it is a pretty big area. They will adjust every single detail, they will "lubifricate" every single part of the park. They will add a log flume, a few more rides for kids and they will retheme some rides of the park. So, the park is going to reborn again. I hope you understood me, sorry for my english. And i hope you will come back here in italy! (mybe Gardaland Or Mirabilandia?) I already know your plans for this year, i can't wait to see the american vlogs!
ps i think its fantastic u going on ur own. good for you mate. lol at the valmonte train drop off hahahaha lets open the park up just for shawn lol no staff lol operate it yourself what a fantastic vlog, your deserve all the credit you get, spotted a welsh dragon to on huntig 5d ;)
in 2018 MagicLand changed management, and in 2019 a new area was opened (where the children's area used to be), a new log flume with a volcano with special effects, a new horror house and more. In 2020 a new space area should have been opened (rip coronavirus) instead of Alfea, and in 2021 a new water park with separate entrance. In 2023 a new coaster will arrive!
Hi there from a thoroughbred Roman! :) I've visited Rainbow many times since its opening day so I'll try and answer the questions you posed during the vlog. -Yes, we Romans can be extremely friendly and curious about foreign people that aren't part of our everyday life. But unlike other culturally different populations, many of us won't conceal their curiosity and try to interact with people like you. :) Of course the more you go south, the more you'll get it, instead, the more you go north, the least you'll get it. -Nope. In many years I've been there, Cagliostro has always been like that. Beautiful on the outside, more than meh on the inside. You're not the first one to despise its lack of substance... -I really think Rainbow was way better years ago, with more parades and shows and all. I still enjoy it today but I can't help but feeling nostalgic about the good old days. -Huntik 5D is based on a TVseries, and characters in the ride will tell you about summoning titans, rituals to break ("Come out and play!" says the one you filmed at the beginning of the ride), rescuing trapped titans, elements to aim at like eyes or other parts of the enemies bodies and finally congratulating with guests. Instead, Maison Houdini is about wizard Harry Houdini encouraging you to enter his manor/lab, only to set a trap on you and claim "you're under my property now". As for Attrazione Chiusa, it means "attraction closed" :) If you still have any questions about the park in general or want me to translate something in particular, I'm always here at your disposal. Keep on making awesome vlogs!
Just wondering, as Huntik has a great blend of screens and animatronics, do you prefer dark rides with screens or live sets/ animatronics. I prefer animatronics, I find it more immersive and it seems more genuine, so I do not enjoy some of the dark rides at Universal. Also I find screens can give me a bit of a headache. Also what is your favourite dark ride, some of my favourites are Pirates of the carribean, Ramases at Gardaland, and I corsair! And how does the theming compare to Gardaland, as the parks are going for very different approaches to get great theming!
Looks like Rainbow is a film company in Italy that used to run the Park. Winx is their equivalent of Tinker Bell (its closer to a similar show from the 2000's called W.I.T.C.H. that Disney had on Jetix as there is a super hero element to it. Fittingly, W.I.T.C.H. was based off an Italian comic made by the French for Disney.
I knew of there show 44 Cats as I follow the Nickelodeon socials (and that alone). I roasted the Nickelodeon Twitter when they announced they were doing a Garfield show. I told them, "You already have a show about cats, 44 of them."
37:00 I don't know if the ride was more enoying than the people in it. Haha, they were crazy. 59:40 The Pagode in the Efteling is a real trouble baby. It is a beautifyl attraction but it is most of the time broken. It is now opened again and you have a beautiful look on Symbolica, the new attraction for 2017.
can you record Vogel Rok with that nightview cam when you go to the Efteling again? the spinning coaster in Rainbow magic can never be as Awful as the Twistrix in Drievliet, the Netherlands, that surely is the worst spinning coaster ever and about a splash battle; you should do the one in Slagharen, its veey different from the traditional splash battle, and you get completely soaked and do you think that yacutan has better theming then The Flying Dutchman in the Efteling?
Alfa Park S.r.l. is an Italian leisure entertainment company that is engaged in operating theme parks and hotels. The company operates Rainbow Magic Land and Miragica theme parks. It looks like Rainbow S.r.l is also a part of it who is a animation company famous for it's winx brand.
Hello Sean! I have a question for you. Is it easier to film on ride videos in Europe than it is in the U.S or the UK . Before any one comments I do know that the UK is in Europe.
Can you do me a favour Shaun, when you next venture to Italy can you ask about their rules relating to people who use wheelchairs? I'm under the impression that you're not allowed to ride at all if you use a wheelchair (which I very much hope isn't true). I'm not willing to travel to Italy myself to find out just in case ;) So if you can ask someone on your next trip I would greatly appreciate it. (the same goes for the German parks like Europa Park which also seem to indicate those who use wheelchairs can't ride the rollercoasters even if they can transfer?)
From watching this, it looks like the park didn't have as much funding as it needed to open, so they focussed more on making it look good to get people in to the park rather than making the park an enjoyable experience once you're there. #randomnozzle
Nothing against you going and vlogging with your friends, but I enjoyed this more with it just being you. As you said yourself, what a beautiful park!
Great vlog as per usual! It was very interesting to get your in-depth take on some of the rides. :)
+COASTER BOT Thank you!
that Building is the Alfea school of fairies of Winx Club

@@ThemeParkWorldwide ok
Hahahaha, your face after the second splash on Yucatan! Priceless xD
I had no idea this park would look so fantastic! Really good stuff Shawn, thanks for always providing us with fun and interesting vlogs!
einfach klasse wie man von Shawn mit durch die Parks genommen wird. Und ein toller Park.
Just agree to Marc in german. Nice Vlog from a nice Park, Shawn.
The effects on the spinning coaster were broken the day you went. There is usually projection mapping, lights, and music.
Broken this year too
I love how Shawn is posting comments about how he could make amazing improvements.
I completely agree that he can do that, Infact I would love to see that a ride or a park completely designed by Shawn and some others maybe too.

Great looking theming and a stunning looking park and a great first vlog from Rainbow magic land 👍🏻
Coaster Crazy hi

That’s amazing, thank you!
Andy told me to watch, thanks for the mention...good advertising! 👍🏻x
You're brave travelling alone Shawn. I couldn't.

Anything is better than UK weather!
I love the solo vlogs
+kimbo11x Thanks for watching!
36.15 italians at their finest xD it's a song about p***y! It is famous all over Italy and Italians like me are singing together now xD
Great to see a new park & such a pretty looking one too. Made a nice change for you to be on your own. That was an entertaining ride on Yucatan haha. Can't believe how quiet it was. Looks like a good time of year to go.
Cag-lee-os-tro just thought id spell it phonetically for ya buddy. Living the channel keep up the good work!
Thanks Sam!
Love this video great as always! Hope you had a great time! 😀
I also fell like you should have a million more subscribes so keep up the good work and I'm sure you will have loads
+Orange Rules Thank you for the support!
you rode the spinning coaster on the wrong day. it usually had lots more effects!
Hi my name is Kevin Price and I love roller coasters like your blogs on every park
I love Italy and Italians, but on rides it's sometimes just too much. They can get annoying ^^ But as always great vlog!
By the way, Mystika is actually 70m tall. But you are right. It does stop way too soon. SBF Visa fucked up to be honest.
***** Nah, Maybe an XL Fabbri drop tower like the Mega Drop at Gyeongju World. Still better.
I'm really happy you enjoyed rainbow magicland ! I really think we should improve the theme parks we have.see you next year !
at 28:00 you were going to go on Planetarium 3D but then it cuts to the battle galleon. Did you enjoy it, what was it?
+Bazahaza It was a very long 4D Cinema
I JUST DIED WHEN I SAW YOUR HAIR AFTER YOU GOT OFF SHOCK!!! LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I already know your plans for this year, i can't wait to see the american vlogs!
Thank you for the information!
Great to see vlogs so early in the year love the videos so much keep it up shawn!!
The crying kid on the mine train reminded me of myself as a kid haha 😂

Another great vlog shawn. well done!
The theming in that park is magnificent
This one is an old gem
Want to get back here!
The surprise water bomb was hella funny lol
in 2018 MagicLand changed management, and in 2019 a new area was opened (where the children's area used to be), a new log flume with a volcano with special effects, a new horror house and more.

Damn!
What a beautiful park.
I'm not sure, but I think the spinning coaster usually has lighting in there, but maybe you caught it on a off day
Hi there from a thoroughbred Roman! :)

+3Davmawey Thank you for the fantastic comment!
+Theme Park Worldwide Any time!
I’ve been here before but too small to go in shock😂 glad u enjoyed it and quality vlog
Fab vlog love this channel you are the best
What! I was totally waiting for the inside of the Alfea castle ( 27:00 ) Guess you didn't really enjoyed it lol
Yeah me too!! Now we still don't know what's inside 😭
I think Shawn never watched Winx, haha
Pirates photo is also at portaventura in Polynesia and far west
Yucatan kind of reminds me of Chiapas at Phantasialand.
Just wondering, as Huntik has a great blend of screens and animatronics, do you prefer dark rides with screens or live sets/ animatronics. I prefer animatronics, I find it more immersive and it seems more genuine, so I do not enjoy some of the dark rides at Universal. Also I find screens can give me a bit of a headache.

Nice vlog! Shock looks like an awesome coaster!
Fantastic clog ty
I live in Rome and I'm so honored you visited that park. Probably you would have understood that is nothing special ahahahah
First i enjoy Lee and Chris? i think it is. I mean you turned into a group of enthusiasts. Second Rainbow Magicland is it worth the hype?
+Joshua S Thank you for watching! It's a great park, well worth a visit
This place look great, great video👌
You should also do a big tour though china or something. A lot of parks there with weird coasters.
Yes!
Silvarret Shawn have you seen that 'the' silvarret has commented
Silvarret What do you think about this park? Not a big deal right? Ahahaha
37:00 I don't know if the ride was more enoying than the people in it. Haha, they were crazy.
59:40 The Pagode in the Efteling is a real trouble baby. It is a beautifyl attraction but it is most of the time broken. It is now opened again and you have a beautiful look on Symbolica, the new attraction for 2017.
Really enjoyed the vid
15:17 the woman in green blessing herself 🤣🤣🤣
going to italy Monday hope you had a nice time
+not your average movie critic We did indeed
Double Whammy! Yay!
Here's a question, which do you prefer, liseberg or portaventura?
+Coasterfan3657 PortAventura
+Coasterfan3657 liseberg
Someone will end up getting killed on that water ride through larking about. Crazy
Really enjoyed this vlog shawn !
Good water ride at etnaland
Can't prennounce words try Google Translate, they're great help with attraction names you can't understand. I use GT and it helps me a lot.
Once again, a great vlog! When will you be going to phantasialand? Will you be there for the opening of taron?
+Theme Park Gore We will be at Phantasialand in June
Ok i will look forward to the vlog! i am going at the beginning of july.
Shawn, please do a gameplay of Planet Coaster or Thrillville: Off The Rails
When are vekoma gonna learn how to make smooth coasters....
Vekoma. NOW
think you should do terra mitica in benidorm
You're going back to Efteling in June? Darn, I'll miss you by a month, as I'm going there as part of a cruise.
+Jorge Arnoldson Have a fantastic trip
Thanks, TPW!
You should make your own theme park Shawn it would be epic, I would so go!!! :-)
The theming at Europa park is a lot better that is my favourite park I've been there a gizillian times.
The horror ride is like calandra at Europa park.
Efteling is one of my fav parks I love the hotel there
Alton towers needs a new dark ride like the 5d one and they really need a new 4d show at alton towers!
People say Cagliostro usually has lights and effects. It might've been broken that day :/
I may be going here in may
I am lol I'm here for directions
THEMING GEEKS ASSEMBLE
+Dominic Arthurs Oh yes!
enjoyed the vlog as always . Do you have a top ten European theme parks as i would like to visit a few this season .
+John Shores Thank you, Europa Park is my favourite!
have you done a top 10 European theme parks yet and if so where can i find it ? if not would you consider doing one ?
Iam going to London in July with my 14 yr. old daughter. Which park is the best for her.
Chessington!
can you record Vogel Rok with that nightview cam when you go to the Efteling again?
the spinning coaster in Rainbow magic can never be as Awful as the Twistrix in Drievliet, the Netherlands, that surely is the worst spinning coaster ever
and about a splash battle; you should do the one in Slagharen, its veey different from the traditional splash battle, and you get completely soaked
and do you think that yacutan has better theming then The Flying Dutchman in the Efteling?
Do you know what the height requirement for Shock is?
Nice theming Shaun..... ;)
Merlin is second only to Disney but yet this park does theming way better. I agree in the UK we deserve better.
+RaspCast We do indeed
Alfa Park S.r.l. is an Italian leisure entertainment company that

Can you visit MagicLand again? It looks like a great Park!
I’d like to!
That girl was loving that beautiful jolty vekoma at 16:40
I really want to go here
Nice park. Please post separate pov's of all those coasters if you would, excepting that awful spinner.
+Matt Man We will be posting full POV's over the coming weeks
Hello Sean! I have a question for you. Is it easier to film on ride videos in Europe than it is in the U.S or the UK . Before any one comments I do know that the UK is in Europe.
+Andy Mann It's easier to get permission to film in Europe
Is this a park going straight to or wait till more stuff comes
+Isaac Gamez Wait for some more I'd say!
Can you do me a favour Shaun, when you next venture to Italy can you ask about their rules relating to people who use wheelchairs? I'm under the impression that you're not allowed to ride at all if you use a wheelchair (which I very much hope isn't true).
I'm not willing to travel to Italy myself to find out just in case ;) So if you can ask someone on your next trip I would greatly appreciate it.
(the same goes for the German parks like Europa Park which also seem to indicate those who use wheelchairs can't ride the rollercoasters even if they can transfer?)
+GeoHX09 I will have a look for you, It might be worth emailing the parks and asking them directly!
Why don't you go to Etnaland in Sicily?
We may do one day
please do more solo vlogs like orlando and this. or just u and one other person. those r the best. the group ones should only be once or twice
+William Wickstead Thank you for the feedback
After watching this video maybe you should have called your channel Theming Park Worldwide! 😂
We do love the theming!
Do you visit lots of theme parks alone Shaun?
+Ben Patience I do sometimes and I enjoy it!
+Theme Park Worldwide me too :) great videos btw!
