Duinrell, Drievliet or Efteling

[sibbi89]

Hey everyone, next week i planed to visit a park. I was twice at Efteling, i wanted to go there because of Joris en de Draak. I want to see Duinrell because Falcon and Drievliet because Formula X.

What do you think which Park is better?

Sorry for my bad English

Thanks for answers

In my opinion you should go for Efteling or Duinrell. The Joris an de Draak at Efteling is definitely worth a visit. The Falcon euro fighter at Duinrell is fun, but the Efteling woodie is much more of a ride and really fun to ride. When I visited Drievliet I was disappointed by the Formule X Coaster. But they do have the Twistrix Coaster at Drivliet wich is a laugh.

If you JUST want credits and you have a car there's really no reason you couldn't do all three parks in a day!

 

Or if you have two days, do Efteling one day and the other two small parks the next day.

 

I personally LOVED Formule X and it was a big hit on the 2008 TPR Europe Trip. I prefer it to Falcon.

You should be able to do both Drievliet and Duinrell in the same day. I personally liked Duinrell a lot more than Drievliet. I think the overall experience at Duinrell is way better (although Drievliet has wild chickens ).

 

Even without a car, you can catch a bus/tram to both parks from Den Haag Centraal. I think the bus ride is around 20 minutes to Duinrell and the tram to Drievliet took about 10-15 minutes.

Duinrell is probably the nicer "park", but Drievliet has by far the better selection of rides with Formule X being FANTASTIC! Especially for it's smaller size. Between Falcon and Formule X, both being small coasters, Formule X is the better ride.

I decided to visit Efteling, because i was there twice and it´s a very beautiful Park. Is Joris en de Draak worth a ride? And is is better then Pegasus?

[SharkTums]

Joris en de Draak is MUCH better than Pegasus.

Efteling is a wonderful classic European-style park, with the thrill rides up in one corner of it and the rest of the layout, given to lots of great landscaping and more Disney-like themeing for children and their families. And some really interesting classic themeing in the park, especially when it comes to the (many) Carousels/Merry-Go-Rounds, lol!

 

And the new Joris en de Draak racing coasters are a great addition to it, alongside (the) BOBsled and Vliegende Hollander, the watercoaster.

 

I would go back to that park again and again if and when TPR offered it as part of a future Euro-tour.

 

EDIT to add: Duinrell coasters are fun, but has few rides, with it's "vacation village" setup. And Drivliet has Formule-X and a good assortment of rides and is still close to Amsterdam for access, "later on".... But Efteling still rules, because for a true theme park, it is massive and enjoyable on several levels, thrillrider or not.
