Erlebnispark Tripsdrill

In the midst of vineyards, mixed forests and orchards lies Germany‘s first theme park: Tripsdrill! Over 100 original, humorous attractions designed with attention to detail guarantee unlimited fun for the whole family. Tripsdrill has repeatedly received awards as the best theme park in Europe. The highlights include the spectacular launched coaster ”Karacho“, the wooden roller coaster ”Mammut“, washing tub rafting or the ”Höhenflug“ – a turbulent flight duel. New: two roller coasters compete against each other in a breathtaking race. What would it be like to experience a rapid train ride in our Family Boomerang ”Volldampf“ – even in reverse? Or would you rather face a thrilling adventure on the Suspended Thrill Coaster ”Hals-über-Kopf“? Another new attraction is the ”Spielewelt Sägewerk“, one of the largest adventure playgrounds in southern Germany. In nine different areas, about 250 amusement features are available for the youngsters.

I visited Europa Park for the first time on Tuesday 14th-Wednesday 15th March with my Girlfriend and our friend. I’ve been lucky enough to get to a few major theme parks such as Disneyland Paris, Portaventura in Salou & the Florida theme parks and I can say 100% this is the best theme park I’ve ever had the pleasure of visiting. We arrived by car about half an hour after park opening and managed to get parked without any hassle. There is a bag check area before you reach the turnstiles however this took very little time to pass through. Our friend hadn’t pre purchased a ticket and thus had to get one on the gate, this cost no more than buying in advance and again took minimal time. The entrance plaza is well laid out with several ticket kiosks in operation. I would however recommend getting there earlier & buying in advance on a weekend as I’m sure it will be much busier than when we went in midweek! Once inside the theming is unbelievably well done and you could easily spend a full day walking around from country to country taking in all the little details. Food & Drink is more reasonably priced than most other parks I’ve visited (a beer only costs around 3€ which is great for the adults!). Most staff speak English however a nice touch is that the staff have the flags of the languages they speak on their nametags which is very helpful. The park is even dog friendly and we saw many people walking their dogs which I’ve never seen in any other theme park. The ride lineup is brilliant with something for all ages, from big rollercoasters such as Wodan (our personal favourite), Silver Star & Blue Fire, to a fantastic selection of several water rides, to a vast lineup of other rides, of which the standouts were the ghost train Geisterschloss (not one for those who scare easy), Voletarium (one of the most impressive simulators out there) & the amazing Arthur (do not miss this one!). There are also several walk through attractions (a real hidden gem was the lazer obstacle course next to the train station in the England area) and some spectacular play areas & slides which made us all wish we were still kids so we could have a go! Although the park wasn’t exactly bursting at full capacity due to the fact it was a weekday we were still heavily impressed with how quickly the staff get the queues moving, we only waited about 5-10 minutes for the biggest rides on the first day which was amazing & although the second day was far busier the wait times rarely exceeded 15-20 minutes. The park does not operate any kind of fastpass system which definitely helps get the main queues moving quicker. The queues themselves are for the most part very detailed similar to those at Disney & Universal parks with plenty to look at to pass the time if it is a long wait. Overall its just an amazing place full of passionate people who seem to actually care about the guest experience and don’t just see you as a walking wallet unlike most other major theme parks. We will definitely be back to see the waterpark once it opens as if it’s even half as good they’ll be on to a winner!

I have a playmobil obsessed little boy and he turned 8 on 2nd August, we planned a road trip for his birthday and drove to the playmobil fun parc from England. We bought a two day ticket which was incredible value for money, 19.90 euros p/p, my son was given a special gift on arrival as it was his birthday, we had great weather both days which was a great bonus as we could thoroughly enjoy all the outdoor areas and my two children loved the splash areas, everything is spotlessly clean, staff are friendly, the food is amazing quality and great value (you get 2 euros back for taking cutlery and crockery back) children also get a lovely playmobil gift with each child’s meal, top tips head to fairy and unicorn area early to do sea shell hunting as gets busy as does police go karting, pirate ship is lovely and you get to hunt for treasure in the sand (you can buy a treasure chest for 1 Euro to collect treasures) my husband and son did crazy golf and said more suitable for older children, the Hob centre is amazing every conceivable playmobil set free to play with for as long as you like, I have No negative points, one point I would like to make in response to a prior review about staff not speaking English and announcements not in English, I am a relatively good German speaker and they only announce relevant information in English, staff are amazing, be prepared to part with lots of money in the shop as they have amazing sets and great value for money

Alpsee Bergwelt

Reviewed By karinf743

Family, 2 adults, 2 kids 9 and 10 years old, visited Alpsee Bergwelt in the summer of 2019. Excellent views, excellent nature and a very fun holiday experience to go downhill with the extremely long coaster, probably difficult to experience the same thing elsewhere. The 10 year old kid went alone with the coaster and the 9 year kid went with the father. Everyone enjoyed it a lot and I can truly recommend it. However, important that the kids are mature enough and aware of safety rules, both uphill and downhill.

This parc could be considered as the blueprint for a perfect recreational parc. Nicely located in the beautiful landscape just outside of Ruhpolding, it is superbly designed, offers great attractions for small children and older kids and adults as well. The whole parc has been built with a love for details not yet seen in any other parc, whether it be the little fairy tale houses, the animated animals that can be seen throughout the parc or the excellent restaurant which offers delicious food. All the staff we met, from the cashier lady, to the servers in the restaurant and the men managing the different attractions, were very friendly and made a great day even better. If you are in the area, this place is a must-see, especially if you travel with children.
