In the heart of Europe, between the Black Forest and the Vosges, lies one of the world's most beautiful theme parks - Europa-Park. More than 5,5 million people from all over the world visit the park each season to enjoy the excitement offered by more than one hundred attractions and shows. The innovative European theme concept; one of the largest hotel resorts in Europe; the various decorations for each season; and the large number of diverse and colorful events make Europa-Park a one-of-a-kind getaway destination all year long.
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!

ROLL UP, ROLL UP FOR A COCKTAIL IN THE WORLD OF THE CIRCUS! The décor at this bar evokes the lively colourful world of the circus, hence the name "El Circo". Lots of small coloured lights, wooden clowns and artistes, gold stars on the circus canopy and pictures of the illustrious Swiss clown cum artist Rolf Knie will transport you straightaway to the enchanting world of circus arts and magic. Everything sparkles, glitters and enthralls. If you want some fresh air after the heady atmosphere of the circus, take a seat on the patio in the inner courtyard. On balmy summer nights, magic reigns here too, with palm trees rustling in the wind, fountains softly burbling, and the arcades of "El Andaluz" lit up as you enjoy our award-winning cocktails. We look forward to your visit!

MAKE FRIENDS – IN ITALIAN "Commedia dell’Arte" is a form of Italian popular comedy and comedies are generally lively, funny and feisty. As is the atmosphere at our Europa-Park cafe! Situated right by the fountain on the lively Piazza, it’s the gregarious site to see and be seen, rather like the Piazza Navona in Rome or St. Mark’s Square in Venice. This is a casual place to hook up and hang out with friends for an espresso, latte macchiato, cornetto or gelato. Cafe culture alla italiana rules inside as well, which is appointed with small round tables, leather-upholstered chairs and an authentic coffee bar. The "Commedia dell’Arte" is a cosy non-smoking cafe, so it’s a good spot for the whole family.
