Theme Park decision

[big-dave]

Hi,

 

I've been following this forum for years as a silent reader. I've had to speak up now as I need some quick opinions.

 

I'm currently sat in Germany using internet access on a phone so research is difficult.

 

We were due to spend 2 days at Europa Park but got it all done in 1 day because it was deserted. So now we can visit another.

 

Choices coming up on the sat nav are:

 

Wallygator

Plopsa Coo

Holiday Park

Phantasialand

 

These are the ones I recognize. But which one is best?

 

Visiting with 3 kids ages 8, 6 & 2 so big roller coasters aren't essential this time.

 

Help me please!!!

I would probably recommend Phantasialand as they do have a lot for everyone. Have a look at our park index page to get an idea of some of the rides:

I agree--Phantasialand is the best choice of this group. (Walygator is probably the worst.)

Without kids, I would have said Holidaypark because of Expedition GeForce.

 

With kids, Phantasialand. Although Plopsacoo is also nice, but only for half a day max.

Tripsdrill is also a good option while you're near Europapark, and it's also closer to Europapark than Plopsacoo and Phantasialand.

With children that age I would also suggest Phantasialand or Plopsa.

Looks like it's Phantasialand. I'm going to try pushing my luck now.

 

Would anyone with a spare 5 minutes be able to post the opening hours. The Phantasialand web site is not phone friendly. I think it might be 9 though.

 

I actually a bit disappointed we didn't need 2 days at Europa park because I was saving the camera and camcorder for day 2.

 

However, the lure of a new park was just too great.

^9am - 6pm.

 

Keep in mind not all attractions open right at 9, and some attractions close before 6pm.

 

Have fun!
