THIS is The Most MAGICAL Place in The World (Sorry Disney…) | Full 3 Day Efteling Vlog

welcome to Efteling It’s where fairy tales live 
stories come to life and magic is around every corner We spent three amazing days here and it was 
one of the most fun trips we’ve ever taken From high-speed roller coasters to gentle dreamy rides 
Efteling has something for everyone We also caught some incredible shows and tried way too much food 
From sweet treats to hearty meals there is loads here to keep you full in between those rides But 
the real cherry on top was staying at the newly refurbished Efteling Wonder Hotel which combines 
beauty elegance and outstanding theming all just steps away from the park So whether you’re 
planning your own trip or just curious about what a few days in Efteling is really like come and 
join us because this is Efteling at its very best And we’ve made it George We’ve arrived And there 
behind us is the Efteling Efteling which I’ll probably say wrong several times Efteling Wonder 
Hotel And we’re just going to go and head in We’ll be doing a full room tour later on today but that 
will probably be in the next video So please do subscribe if you want to see that But let’s go 
on and head into Efteling Let’s get in from the hotel It’s just up there behind us You follow 
the little footprints and you kind of head down   to the end of this inconspicuous looking path 
and then there’s like an entrance here for the Efteling Wonder Hotel guests and someone normally 
comes out of the um like a little shop there to check the tickets We’re inside What your initial 
thoughts George i want to go on the gondalers   already Gondalers are just over here behind us 
Such a beautiful day out today Absolutely amazing So we’re just going to have a quick look around 
probably find the Lu uh cuz we just spent 3 and a half hours in the car but completely clear run 
apart from the sort of road being closed Um sort of close to it having to go a bit of a back way in 
The normal way in is actually much much easier and a bit quicker It’s just literally on the main road 
Um the way we went was definitely scenic Um but yeah we’re here Yeah Find some lunch And what are 
you thinking for first ride i don’t actually know So I’m tempted to say Fatamorgana Yeah because of 
a special reason we may be staying in the Fatima Morgana suite which will be seen in the next video 
So I’m tempted to say that but we’ll have a look at the um wait times because we’re right here 
next to Carnival Festival just in front of us So we might see what the um weight time is on that 
one first as well As it is George’s first time we   let her pick the first ride and she’s gone for 
Carnival Festival as it is literally posted at a five minute wait So can never pass up a literal 
walk-on And unfortunately the song is probably now going to be stuck in our heads for the rest 
of the day but it’ll be worth it There’s George ride Very good Very good It’s like it’s a 
Small World but with no water Yes Yeah I think the animatronics are a little bit basic 
I think the ride looks a little bit dated but   it’s still nevertheless a really really good ride 
especially for an independent theme park as well The dragon animatronic is actually really really 
good I did like the dragon the most Yeah but they   sort of maintain it really well Like everything 
was working Overall a really really great ride to start off with Not sure what we’re going to 
do now Might head on another ride We might get   some food but we’ll see Definitely do something 
All right George opted for a ride before lunch And we are going on Villa Vulta which it probably 
is a good idea to do this one before lunch Okay you’ll find out why I wouldn’t want to do this 
one directly after lunch cuz uh lunch you may end up having lunch twice Once on the way in and 
once the way out It’s um can be quite nauseating I would say this ride But um it is good fun 
nevertheless So definitely worth checking out So that was a dizzying journey on Villa 
Volta What did you think of that one it   was good but I think the Legoland one is 
less Okay Interesting I actually haven’t done the Legoland one yet but um it’s better 
Cool Okay Still good Could be better It does look a little bit dated Yeah Um and I do think it 
would be better if we did understand the backstory Yes definitely The backstory looks good but it’s 
all in Dutch so I’m not actually sure what it’s all about Um maybe if we got that would help to 
add to the story line of it a little bit more So   for lunch today we’re going to hit Witty Harad 
Uh they do like sandwiches hot food drinks and stuff Just having a look at the lunch options 
here Um got a good selection of fruit Got some hot options Things like spare ribs fries fish 
and chips They’re about 1675 Loads of cakes baguettes sausage rolls and things over there Good selection of cakes as well that were very 
nice They’re about €4.50 Loads and loads of drinks And then hot drinks Chocomel A bit warm for 
that today I think it’s a hot one Loads more cakes in the middle We’ve also got some kid options as 
well for eight nights of five The best meal What have you got oh wow that is actually good I wish 
I went for that Chips fruit and an apple juice And it makes a singing mushroom after That’s pretty 
cool So here’s a closer look I’ve gone for the sausage roll It’s quite big And one of the pink 
donuts George’s already started tucking in chicken chips fruit brownie which was gluten-free and an 
Efteling surprise egg as well And this comes with some apple juice And then apparently you use this 
and the bowl is up Mhm It turns into a mushroom Music mushroom Impressive So here baited breath 
for this Efteling egg That’s quite impressive Milk and white chocolate Yeah Go on That was a bit 
of a miserable f I was expecting the shattering There’s no like figurine Oh So inside sed you get an efteling temporary 
tattoo Okay Of I think that’s like Fata Morgana Yeah Here it is And then the book to 
say the ones that you can collect Okay So I assume they’re all probably temporary tattoos in 
there Okay Interesting Yeah George has compiled the mushroom that you get with the kids meal So 
this is the bowl and then they give you this as well and it makes a very annoying tune which 
I’m sure will get on your nerves but it does have an off button so that’s a key feature and 
you can switch it off Just coming on through the   park got the tire temple up there symbolica 
which is looking very beautiful in the sun today However we are going to head down for fat 
Morgana cuz George has definitely got to do that ride before we go to the hotel just so that the 
room maybe makes sense So we’ll uh go do Fatima Morgana and then we’ll have a look at the wait 
times and see where we’re going to head next Here we are in the Grand Bazaar themed 
area heading over to Fata Morgana which literally has zero weight The queue 
times here today absolutely staggering When   we came at Christmas when it was freezing 
cold and bit wet and horrible it was like this constantly had minimum 20 like all 
day and then today loads of stuff are like walkons Yeah crowd level is not too 
bad and it is an absolutely beautiful day Heat Heat First ride on Fatamorgana It was good I think 
it’s one of those ones that you get like more details the more you ride it Yeah Cuz I sort 
of definitely noticed some stuff this time I   didn’t see last time Mhm Got to be a daily 
ride especially if the weight is literally like 5 minutes Yeah Yeah Very very good ride Um 
yeah love that one And we’ll see how the room compares to it Yes that’ll be interesting Next up 
is Max and Moritz Unfortunately the little one’s too small for this one So George on first and then 
I will head on second That’s quite a good little family coaster I would say Um yeah she’s just bit 
too small Minimum height for that one is a meter That’s quite a good fun coaster that one Quite 
like Maxim So do I Yeah I like that it goes around twice Oh I was going to say that It’s a bit 
faster the second time Yeah it’s got a bit more   the second time especially if you get a little 
bit further near the back I don’t know where you at the back Yeah you get a little bit more 
of a kick back there which is quite nice But um   yeah can’t wait till she’s over a meter then can 
actually go on it That’ be even more fun then But yeah nice one Everyone can enjoy No like sudden 
drops or anything uh too scary Good speed good pace and they operate it really well as well Like 
they’re turning everyone over really quickly And   the carts are quite long The trains are quite long 
so you can fit a lot of people on And then they got obviously like two running simultaneously 
so you kind of get that like dueling aspect as   well Really fun coaster I definitely recommend 
checking that one out The last ride of the day was the Venetian Gondilas which had a wait time of 
35 minutes and that was pretty accurate for what we waited It felt like the perfect way to finish 
off a beautiful day here at Eftelane enjoying the many beautiful sights of the park and the 
nature wildlife and waterfalls that this ride incorporates So just finishing up the day on the 
gondelas Um after this we’re going to head over to the hotel uh cuz our room should be ready So go 
get our stuff put it in What have you thought of traveling it’s been a long day so far I think we 
was up at like I think I woke up at half 3 up at 4 What you think of the journey over i don’t think 
it was too bad No especially since we were able to get the train as well Yeah I made it here Really 
good time especially on the other end No traffic It was literally we would have done it in 3 hours 
but it was 3 and 1 half Made made a stop on the way Um uh Etling does not sell belts as I found 
out need to hunt one down I think by by tomorrow um might have a quick look in the uh hotel gift 
shop Might get lucky there They might have one cuz might be something people frequently forget but 
maybe not We’ll have a look Um yeah What’s What   your initial thoughts of the park we’ll be having 
a full day here tomorrow We’ve had a few hours so far The park’s lovely Verying very green Yeah 
Yeah Very well themed as well I think Yes Yeah Um we haven’t really come across any of the big 
coasters yet today so we’ll try and catch all of   them tomorrow Uh do a few There’s a couple that 
I won’t do but Regina doesn’t have a vestibular system so she’s going to go on for me Let me 
know what they are Especially Baron will not catch me on Baron Um you want to do Baron yes I 
will There we go Hope you enjoyed the first few hours that we’ve had here at the uh Efteling theme 
park Please do subscribe There will be lots more videos to come Um we’re staying at the Etling 
Wonder Hotel which is literally just reopened I think a couple of weeks ago after having a 
big refurb So I’m really excited to see what’s   changed there I think they’ve also renamed 
it Last time I stayed there it’s called the Efteling Hotel Now it’s the Efteling Wonder Hotel 
Um so yeah we’re going to check that out And also Suite which we didn’t do last time So lots of new 
stuff coming and then we’ll get George’s thoughts and feelings on a full day here at the park as 
well Welcome to the Efteling Wonder Hotel which has been newly refurbished here over at the 
Efteling Theme Park Um it was closed I think around the start of January It’s been closed for 
quite a few months and now it’s just been open I   think a couple of weeks And they’ve had some big 
changes to the layout uh downstairs automatically I’ve noticed that the location of the entrance 
has completely changed It’s now sort of at the front side where it did used to be sort of over 
at the back and they’ve sort of got a bit of a   hole over there now Um and it’s also completely 
redesigned as well looking amazing And also a new name Pretty sure it was called the Efteling 
Hotel last time Now it’s the Efteling Wonder So   we stayed here back in December but George this 
is her first visit Yeah Are you looking forward to staying here i am I want to be one of the rooms 
at the top in the egg Yes So I’ll I’ll show you a picture of the hotel as a whole But yeah we’ve 
booked the Fatima Morgana suite So not quite sure where that is located yet but we’re going 
to go in have a look at all of the new changes uh that they’ve made which I think is mostly 
limited to downstairs And then we’re going to do a room tour of the Fata Mogana suite which is 
what we’re staying at this time Come and join us   as we check out the new Efteling Wonder Hotel So 
the story behind the Efteling Wonder Hotel is that you enter the base station which we’re going to 
show you in a sec and then as you enter it’s going   to sort of like whisk you off into a journey 
into the dreams Now this really really fits in quite well with the sort of theming and styling 
of the hotel and the park as well So we’re going   to head in and take a look This is the outside of 
the hotel Really really pretty Loving the changes changes that they’ve done here to the entrance 
It looks much much better I think it makes more   sense being on this side because this is where 
you sort of drive in as opposed to the other side which was just kind of like looking out over 
the main road So this is the hotel It’s a bit of a floating cast And at the top there is some eggs 
as Georgina’s called them and she’s hoping that we’re staying in one of those eggs Going to head 
on in now Oh new revolving doors would be Oh god they’re a bit dangerous actually catch them at 
the wrong moment Loving the name out on there Yeah Heading on in Nice big and open Little bit 
of a gift shop either side Self-service checkout Some nice sort of like suitcases up the top as 
well Sort of fitting in with that whole sort of   explorer journeying theme And you can obviously 
also buy the the beer that’s exclusive to here along with the hand soap and room diffusers Few of 
the stuff toys some sweets blankets here They’ve got some really nice seating And they’ve still 
got the some clocks at the back there They used   to have the uh sort of clocks of different times 
but they’ve changed up a bit Small reception desk over there And bit more of a souvenir shop as well 
They’ve got these great sort of theming throughout the lobby All the different adventurous suitcases 
As soon as you head out from the reception it now leads you straight into the restaurant I believe 
this is the Saga restaurant You can see here they’ve sort of completely redesigned it with 
this very sort of like industrial steampunk kind of vibe Really really like this So they’ve done 
a really really nice job of the restaurant here It’s much much better than how the restaurant was 
previously Again it’s all very open planned now It used to be quite sort of restricted and sort 
of different little rooms You see they’ve got a bar down there Looks to be a really really 
decent size bar as well They’ve set out the tables all very nicely and great views as 
well I love the sort of open planned nature   of it So again this restaurant’s absolutely huge 
Massive massive bar really does extend down And I love all the just attention to detail they 
got going on here Looks really really pretty film Oh that is a lot of pencils You can see this 
area that we’re standing at the moment and these doors was where the original entrance was Uh but 
as you can see it’s kind of a bit of a hole over there so you can’t really go out there anymore 
Yeah this was sort of where the main reception   was kind of previously And then in the center 
here they’ve got sort of I think an area for the kids I’m not too sure what that says It’s 
written in Dutch But yeah interesting stuff George has sat down with one So George is not 
letting the children win Classic Georgina style Um plays air hockey on it It’s interesting 
And picked up the gift from the reception It’s like three chocolate coins for the kids 
They’ve also redone up outside as well You see it’s all been nicely repaved out here Loads 
and loads of seating as well Maybe not the best view It’s over the car park but nevertheless 
really really nice area especially on a day   like today where the weather is just so good 
And then coming over to the left sort of really really immersive theming makes you feel like 
you really are in some sort of base station   ready to take off up to the land of dreams 
which is almost done through the elevators The lifts have been completely redone since we 
last stayed here So one used to be bigger than the other but now they’re both about the same 
size And one used to open up from the back as   well but that doesn’t happen anymore Got some 
like electronic boards in here now as well at the moment Overall very impressed All fitting 
in well with the theming that they’ve gone for downstairs Hallways are still largely looking 
the same though Looks like they’ve sort of   done up the front of the lifts Sort of almost 
given them a bit more of a ragged look but the um carpets in the hallways look the same So does 
all of the rooms pretty much up here on the eighth floor You got different suites in each corner So 
you got Fata Morgana which is our one there Then   you have a normal room and then heading around 
the other side You’ve got couple more rooms and the Hensel and Gretel suite Okay let’s have a 
look at the other side Then you got the suite Not too sure what that one is This one Got a few 
more normal rooms And then the last suite they’ve got up here is the raven gin suite That would 
be another good one to stay in I think So as George calls them the eggs uh they all seem to 
be housing suites by the looks of it And we’re just going to head back into ours So here is our 
room tour of the Fata Morgana suite which is 803 As soon as you come in there’s this door 
directly in front of you which is the toilet with some decorative plates You got the eling 
the gift label Amsterdam soap which is in all their rooms and nice basin in here as well And 
coming on through you’ve got your first very decorative wardrobe It’s quite a good size 
Oh as you can see our suitcases have fallen out Next you have got the nice wardrobe 
with mirrors either side and it’s a good size inside Fits our suitcases Got some more 
pillows at the top and some hanging space there Next as you come through there’s a nice sort of 
curtain Then you head on into the main room which is very decorative You’ve got some further shelves 
in here along with the safe Nice big plant sort of decorative bars there on the table We’ve got 
a couple of big sofas Regina does not come with the room Another mirror up there And a Sha’s 
lounge over there Lovely windows You can see out bit the park and over the car park as well 
Loads and loads of sort of decoration in here as well with all the vises So next you got the tea 
and coffee over here with the coffee machine as well and a lamp Very very ornate blueprint in here 
It’s almost got a bit of a texture to it as well So heading around you got the TV on a stand and 
then you’re coming up into what we call the egg That’s what it looks like from the outside And 
you got another TV in here a little bit smaller Loads of sort of decoration Very ornate up here 
Really impressive bed Oh and they’ve given some cave I believe in there some ethylene sweets 
glasses champagne glasses and there is a bowl of fruit as well That looks great Heading round 
Sort of really good view out of all the windows Loads of windows here Coming out from where the 
bed is Again just so many decorations in here There’s the information for room service and 
also a welcome letter here as well which says the suite has everything you need for a 
comfortable stay The mini bar is included   in your stay Fancy a cup of coffee or tea it’s 
ready and waiting So just help yourself Um if you’re using the digital room key there will 
be a small surprise for the children waiting   at the reception Okay pick that up Or if you’d 
like anything else or have a question please let us know Our team is always happy to help 
make your stay an enchanting one The Efteling Wonder Hotel team tip Uh Elyn Park is open half 
an hour earlier Exclusive for hotel and resort guests You can see which attractions are open 
earlier on the website and the TV screen Very nice And then two sort of massive chairs there 
Then coming over there is some looks to be nuts crisps Tony’s bottle opener and then in here a 
couple of bottles of Coke two bottles of water and then there was the stuff that was on the 
bed is hiding just down there And then there’s the very open planned intimate bathroom So make 
sure you’re sharing the room with someone that   you like or get them to hide otherwise So up here 
you have a whirlpool bath It’s quite low down as well but yeah that’s quite big Again got all your 
amenities and stuff there It’s very open glass Big window looking outside Some more mirrors Two 
more sinks towels hair dryer under there And then a shower Again all very ornate Big shower head 
at the top One that you can move down below And again surrounded with yet more mirrors The room 
also comes with slippers and bathrooms as well come back to the room after being out of the 
park and they do replenish the snacks we have   found in the fridge and they have replaced the 
waters and the Coke Zero and which we weren’t expecting they have also replaced the fruit and 
the bottle of Carver the glasses So I think you can keep these glasses I’m not totally sure 
but the fact that they’ve given fresh glasses   cuz the other ones are still on the table 
and more chocolates So yeah very impressed with that I think the Fatima Morgana suite is 
really really nice here at the Efteling Hotel We’ll let you know what we think of it all at 
the end and also of the how we think about the refurbs as well at the hotel and also how we 
find the restaurant But the room looks really nice Just make sure you’re sharing it with someone 
that you like or you’re going to have to get them   to hide in the bedroom area I think we messed up 
a bit when booking this We just kind of was like “Oh a suite that looks nice.” Uh we did initially 
want the carousel suite but that was sold out So I think that’s a fourperson one And the last room 
that uh me and Jamie had sort of had a double bed and a single bed That was the threeperson comfort 
room which I’ll put that video down below if you want to check out that room However I think this 
is more of a couple suite Um I like Georgina but um yeah she’s my sister so I’m going have to get 
to hide in the hide in the bath in the bedroom   area um sort of when we’re we’re getting ready 
and stuff But um other than that really really nice room We’ll uh let you know our thoughts fully 
on it once we’ve stayed here for the two nights So we’ve made a reservation for dinner tonight at the 
Saba restaurant And if you make a reservation it seems like they kind of sit you at the back area 
which is really nice over here It gives very kind of symbolica vibes from um everything that’s going 
on over there Much much improved Um I didn’t find the restaurant the greatest experience last time 
we came So had a look at the menu It has changed So I’m really interested to try it out again 
see what’s different see if it’s improved Um   it’s already a lot quieter so and the theming and 
the way that they’ve done this up is absolutely amazing So already it’s been great Staff have 
been perfect Yeah hopefully going to have a really nice meal tonight This is the menu at the 
Saga restaurant So apparently the portions are a   bit smaller now So it can go three courses which 
is four dishes for £39.50 50 or three courses with five dishes for £45 And you can select up to two 
dishes per chapter and they’re served chapter by chapter So one’s kind of a bit more appetizer 
two mains three desserts Yeah menu is looking good Please do pause if you want to see what 
it’s like And for the kids it’s three courses for £25 and they can select up to two dishes 
per chapter and it includes a small surprise So here we have the drinks menus I have white red I assume for the wines Very good 
selection beers Therapy scents spirits soft drinks coffees and cocktails and mocktails 
Very good selection overall George has ordered a sparkling strawberry Alcoholic or non-alcoholic 
mocktail Mocktail And I’ve gone for a beer George is gluten-free and gone for two starters So 
the beetroot gluten-free salad and it’s the guy from Fata Morgana in the salad And then she 
had gluten-free tacos which they substituted the tortilla with the gluten-free bread But yeah 
that is huge for a starter Gluten-free actually looks better for once but this is mine Loads 
of meat Very impressed so far Just finished off the chicken tacos and that is a must get 
The texture is great tastes that really very   soft tortilla like crispy onions great sauce in 
there very very fresh with all the ingredients Highly highly recommend getting the chicken 
pack cuz that was amazing so far Much better uh quality of food than what was here previously 
which is great How’s yours George very good How’s the beetroot salad with garam very cool Very 
cool Does taste nice as well How how does your uh tacos compare mine were pretty good but it 
looks like you’ve got a lot more than me Very   very good I think yeah I did have more George has 
gone for the sliders which are done gluten-free You can see a couple of characters on the page 
down there They’re looking pretty good I have   gone for the chicken fried chicken and the fish 
and chips And there’s some hidden characters down there Also got some fish and chips for the barber 
as well Overall looking really good but we’ll see how it tastes How are your burgers gluten-free 
edition Were good but a lot of bread Yeah with that with the starter I imagine Yes But the seeded 
rolls were good So I went for the fish and chips and the chicken Both were really good actually 
Great improvement on last time I think the biggest complaint last time was that there was nothing 
really like normal on the menu Um however they’ve completely changed that Uh the chicken was really 
really nice The sauce they put on it was lovely   And the fish and chips was yeah top quality Can’t 
complain about that as well She’s just eating her fish and chips as well She’s not as fan on the 
fish but she seems to be enjoying the chips at least Next up is dessert They couldn’t do the 
chocolate dessert as gluten-free for George so she’s got the kids one which actually looks even 
better It’s got a little face there on the tree cotton candy for hair Little like green for 
leaves Actually looks really really cool Let us know what’s left And I have gone for like the 
red berry compot dessert It’s got like custard and crumble with it That was very very nice 
So the berry dessert was really really good   It was like a frozen mousse on top with like a 
layer of crumble Uh followed by like loads and loads of berries like strawberries raspberries 
blueberries I think blackberries or blueberries underneath then like a creamy custard like 
cream/ custard mix That was very very good Highly recommend that How is the kids dessert 
good Very filling though It’s like a chocolate mousse ice cream with then the cotton candy on 
top and then some ice grass and a few little mint leaves in there as well So we’ve also got shows 
going on here in the atrium as well of an evening Apple What were your thoughts on the restaurant the 
Saga restaurant Very good Theming of the food   was really really good Yeah I was very impressed 
Really really improved since last time we’ve been in Last time I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone 
It wasn’t great at all Like service was slow Oh thank you Um service was a bit slow and the food 
really wasn’t much to add either But that service was still slow That was It was very slow dinner 
That was a little over 2 hours It was slow but the food was much better at least So definitely 
do take that as a win And we’ll wait and see what breakfast is like down there as well When it comes 
to breakfast at the Efteling Wonder Hotel this is also held down in the Saga restaurant which 
is great because it’s a massive space that   can fit lots of people The selection on offer 
is also really really good You’ve got all your classic juices There’s some choco mail and coffee 
available as well Uh regarding the food you have pastries bread cakes muffins as well as some hot 
options as well such as pancakes eggs bacon and sausages There’s also a small allergy section as 
well which is located at the end of the bar All of the food here on offer is of great quality 
and we would highly recommend especially the donuts They were something that we particularly 
liked However one of the other major bonuses of having breakfast here at the hotel is that it’s 
only a short walk from the park but also you get to do the character meet and greets as well So 
I just finished up two days here at the Efteling Wonder Hotel and I think it’s been pretty good 
overall Yeah it has The restaurant’s sort of vastly improved which is great to see I really 
like the way that they’ve completely redone down the downstairs into a base station apparently 
as a sort of like place where you start off uh on your dreams which fits in quite well 
with the whole sort of theming of the park   and the hotel here And then the room What are your 
thoughts on the room i’m a fan of the room being very good Like the bath with the bubbles Yeah I 
think this is one of the most expensive rooms that they do here at the um Efteling Wonder Hotel But 
yeah really really good size great bathroom really really good theming as well throughout And overall 
I think it’s been really really good experience   here But definitely consider staying here again 
There’s loads of different types of suites that they have available and also some sort of more 
basic rooms as well But I think definitely one   that you should should consider checking out if 
you’re planning a trip over here Hello and welcome to our first full day here at Efting We’re here 
just waiting to go in We’ve got the uh 30 minutes early entry today So going to head straight down 
to Droomvulche and hopefully get on that hopefully a few times before the park opens And then once 
that’s open we’ll start having a look at the   wait times and figure out what we’re going to do 
next Hopefully there’ll be lots of rides in today Going to also visit the pancake place which 
should be good First time going there Very good And then we’re going to finish up the day 
not with a dinner here at the park but there’s a   really really good local restaurant that we went 
to last time which didn’t record but we’re going to show you it this time that would definitely 
highly recommend checking out So we’ll show you   that as well cuz it’s literally like a 2minute 
drive from from the park and literally one of the best restaurants been to So highly highly 
recommend So come with us for our second day but first full day here at Ethel and we’re in We’re 
heading straight down to June Vult But lovely lovely morning today Nice and quiet How we like 
it You liking early entry George yes Very empty Hopefully get a few rides in on Droomvulche before 
everyone else comes in Now it’s time for one of   the best rides in the park Droomvulche Love this 
ride Pretty much no one’s here First thing this morning great theming throughout Even the line as 
you’re just walking in these massive like fairy tale like lights Be heading straight on See how 
many rides we can get on before the park opens That was No wasn’t Carnival Festival That’s where 
we’re going next How was Dream Vult very good It was very similar to sort of Haunted Mansion and 
Peter Pan in how it was set out but different theming very fairy and troll themed Yeah I 
really like that ride It’s um great for everybody really really beautiful inside I think 
there’s some smells as well Yes Yeah it’s   got some smells but yeah I would say that’s 
probably second best dark ride in Europe from what we’ve been on I think um I think the best 
is yet to come today We should be showing you that one later Um but yeah great ride I think 
overall it was Now we’re going to head up to the suppose back end of the park sort of where 
we came in uh for Carnival Festival Just found this on the way to Carnival Festival €2 if she 
can get it to work I’m not sure what you get Okay So it’s like a little show of some 
guy on an anvil And then you get something Oh it’s a pin of the bakery Oh okay That 
is actually pretty cool So €2 for a pin That’s not too bad Okay So apparently there’s 
gatra balls here in Eling Yes For a pin for a pin Obviously done loads of gacha in Tokyo 
and the next set of vlogs to come up after these ones will be Tokyo Disneyland where 
there is more gacha hen and then much much more for all of the other Tokyo vlogs which 
will be coming out every week as well But now   we are actually going to head up to Carnival 
Festival Now it is time for Carnival Festival and says it’s a complete walk-on Another 
great ride here at EFL There’s George Carnival Festival Great little dark ride 
there for the whole family Very catchy   theme tune We’ll see how long it takes for 
that to wear off But next up is Vogel Rok George just going on it now Our little one’s a 
little bit too small at the moment So so we’re going to have to switch when we go on But 
didn’t manage to get on this one last time so we’re going to give it a go this time The 
outside of this ride though has great theming Look at this magnificent bird that they’ve got 
going And the head even moves Really impressed So we just been on Vogel Rok and we have 
completely different opinions What do you   think of it i was not a fan I personally love it 
It’s reminds me of like Avengers Flight Force I don’t like Avengers Flight Force though Yeah I 
I whereas I quite like that ride I thought it   was really good It’s only got a max speed of 64 
km an hour which you thought it felt really fast Yeah I thought it felt fast but not that bad 
Like it’s lots of turns kind of downhill but no like dropping sensation Um yeah I really 
liked it I thought it was good I wouldn’t go on it again I think some of the bits were 
a bit nauseating Not from the roller coaster   but from the like effects that they have So 
like the way that you kind of go through the tunnels and the lasers That bit threw me off 
a bit made me feel a little bit sick but it weren’t from the roller coaster It’s more 
from the effects If you kind of shut your   eyes on those bits I think you’ll be fine But 
it is very very dark ride It’s like completely pitch black in there No I thought it was good 
I think it’s worth a go I wouldn’t recommend   it Different opinions there Depends what you 
like I think Um going to see where we’re going to head next Okay so currently it’s 35 It is 
one of the longer ones in the park Tends to be   at this all day Symbolica Now I think this 
is probably the best ride in the park door opening Hey I don’t know So that was Symbolica Your first ride What do you 
think of it i enjoyed it Very good Yeah I think it’s a lovely ride I think it’s the best art ride 
in Europe Yes Haven’t found anything that beats it   so far Might do but so far top I think Droomvulche 
is a close second as well So got about 45 minutes before lunch We’re going to the pancake place 
directly in front of us So just going to go   see what else is around for a few minutes I think 
and then head over for some pancakes There’s Pedro Pedro is out and about Let’s go see if we can meet 
him So we got Pardoes out doing his meet and greet The little one doesn’t want to go meet him at the 
moment so might be catch him a different day Yeah beautiful day here today symbol just up there Thai 
temple there Let’s have a wander around the park Just headed in the fabula restaurant 
Just have a quick look Sort of burgers different sort of salad boxes and little box 
meals Seems to be 950 for a burger and 11.50 50 meal box It’s got some very nice sandwiches 
fruit salads some cakes as well All looks lovely in here And the theming is also pretty great 
Look at all these big jellyfish Reminds me a bit of Mermaid Lagoon over in Tokyo Disneyland 
Sorry Tokyo Disney Sea certainly have those kind of vibes Yeah really really good 
theming in here that’s for sure Super cool down the back end as well Sort of a 
bit of a play area for the kids and a bit   more sort of jungle and animal themed but sort 
of polar bit over there Some monkeys swinging climbing area tigers bears Great theming in 
here Brilliant Look at that turtle up there That is really really cool for sure Looks like 
he’s kind of wearing a bit of a mask as well Also got a small souvenir section Different 
animals onesies for kids magnets umbrellas some mugs Yeah nice little selection over here 
Little cafe section opposite the where the main meals food is Great selection of cakes in here 
The donut sort of looks to be a bit giraffe themed which looks really nice They’ve also got 
some of like sausage rolls and things Here is the new Efteling Grand Hotel just in front of 
us which is literally like inside the park The Wonder Hotel like just outside and the other two 
more kind of like they’re lodge themed or a bit of a further walk but this is literally in the 
park It’s looking amazing It’s opening soon I think it’s 1st of August Would love to stay there 
We’ll um see whenever we come back next time if we can get a room there or whether we go back to the 
Wonder Hotel cuz we do really really like it there It’s looking amazing See them just putting the 
final finishing touches in Looks great Meet and greets out and about We got one of the warriors 
from Ravenleijgn One of the fairies from Dune Lots of characters out today which is great Okay 
super excited for lunch Going to the pancake place Let’s check it out Yes we have to reserve this 
We reserved this a little while ago Be really nice So over here at the pancake place which is 
looking amazing Really really good theming inside So for the menu got different sweet pancakes hot 
cold beverages Think there’s some savory ones as well down here And then got children’s one That’s 
725 Some specialties up there They’ve also got the magic water which I think you get to keep the 
glass I’m not sure It says €3 So what have you gone for George i’ve gone for the pancakes with 
the ice cream on And I’ve also gone for one of the frozen mocktails I went for one of the specials 
It’s like pancakes with some crispy waffle on top and strawberry jam So going to give that a go And 
then we got the little one the kids menu one with some fresh fruit and a magic water So looking 
forward to testing out what that is Look at it spinning It’s got loads of cakes pancakes on it 
Looks really really good The theming up there George has come and she’s gluten-free 
pancake and then everything seems to   have come separately and her drink This is the 
magic water sort of lights up which seems to be good for the kids cuz she keeps asking for 
it wanting to drink the water Just waiting   for mine to come and the kiddies as well This 
is the kids one Uh we went with the fruit It’s like a heart-shaped pancake and then comes 
with I think it’s a book maybe Hopefully she will like that And this is my one I’ve got 
the like stroop and waffle bit traditional uh like white chocolate shavings and jam in the 
middle Looks really really good So with the kids meal it’s not a book It’s like a magnetic Nooks 
and crosses You should really really like that The in here is genuinely excellent It’s really 
really good However if you look up there and um look in there’s like a unicorn that’s 
kind of been taxed like you would a deer head Not quite sure what I think of uh that level 
of detail but definitely unique to say the   least Just went to the pancakes for lunch That 
was quite good I was quite impressed with that I was impressed We had a good table by the center 
spinning pancake tower thing which was great Yeah And really filling which when I kind of saw it 
I was like “Oh that looks a bit small I don’t   think that’s going to be enough for lunch.” 
And then by the end I was lally struggling to eat it So no quite impressed with that Really 
good theming inside as well Yes That kind of thing in the middle goes off intermittently I’m 
not sure maybe like every 10 minutes And then uh the magic water was quite cool €3 
Basically just paying for the cup And   then to find Yeah So it’s like just down the 
side of the bar and then there’s like a little duck shaped handle uh that you then go and 
get the water from there But good for the   kids Makes them drink lots of water So yeah 
and they get to bring the cup back as well Now we’re heading past the train that’s moving and 
over to Fatam Moana because it says it’s going to be a walk-on Here we go Up next Fata Morgana 
Apparently no way So looking forward to this Morgana again Always good Yeah absolutely agree 
Pretty much walk on by like 2 minute waits Yeah definitely can’t complain about that The wait 
times are pretty good here at the park today Very good We’re going to go head on something 
a bit bigger now One’s just got an ice cream They’re really like quite reasonable their ice 
creams here So quite impressed with that Um do different sizes toppings so you can kind of 
make it as expensive as you like Um what we gonna head on next not too sure Definitely one 
of the bigger rides though Okay Yeah we’ll have a look Maybe Max and Moitz and we might head 
over to where the bigger ones are like the   wooden roller coaster and Python and stuff like 
that We’ll uh have a look see what’s up next George has opted to go on the wooden coaster 
Sent her in to check it out first Make sure it doesn’t sort of give you that dropping 
stomach flipping feeling cuz the first drop did look a little bit steep So to check it out 
first and she’s also going to get us POV what it’s like the area with all the coasters you 
can see here just behind me the sort of fine Dutchman do want to try and give that a 
go and then the other side we’ve got as Your brave a wooden roller coaster Yeah How was 
it a lot of drops and quite fast Yeah that would definitely not go well for me Um any dripping 
sensation I’m done So I’ll leave that one to you Yeah Okay we’ll go see what we’re going 
to do next What are you thinking another big ride I think Okay we’ll go see what’s on 
the horizon Got Python here just starting off I’ve tried to get George to go on this one 
but she’s resisting a little bit to be honest I think I would be pretty satisfied on this 
so I can’t blame her too much But here they go It’s a big steel roller coaster 
Lots of inversions and loops on it It does look like a pretty fun coaster Impressed 
with the people on it that I’ve managed to not feel too nauseous Think I would But yeah it’s 
quite good that you can literally stand right   in the middle of it and see the whole thing go 
around just from one one spot I quite like the way that they’ve placed it in the park here So 
to avoid feeling nauseious so I didn’t go on I’ve come over to Max and Moritz So give this one a go 
today Was really good fun yesterday Go on it again So Scarlet has just gone on Max 
and Mort at the moment So while   she’s gone I have gone to try the fried 
potato snack in the flavor just sorted Very crispy nice and warm I’d recommend 
going and getting one Just been on Max   and Mort I did the green you did the 
blue so I did this family poster And there’s pretty much no weight That was 
pretty good Devouring her Yeah Probably let everybody know about the potato 
stick Very good So we’re hoping to show that next I got hit in the head 
by a bird Did you yes I’m going to put that clip in there Well 
something hit me in the head Now they’ve got the characters 
out and around the park doing a   little bit of a show of interacting with everybody Pretty cool As the little ones asleep we’re going 
to check out The Flying Dutchman and probably try and catch the show tomorrow Um probably the 
first showing so we don’t want to miss that Um it’s a little bit more intense than this than 
I initially thought this ride So I’ve sent George   on first She’s like the sacrificial lamb at the 
moment Just going to check it out and then if it has any dropping sensations I might avoid 
it today like maybe try and go on it tomorrow If it’s completely fine then we’ll uh head on 
straight after that But that’s a good place   now Hopefully it doesn’t look too droppy Had a 
look around the backside which I’ll go show you now on the ride We’re kind of It’s a little 
bit more intense than what I was expecting We can just see George coming around She didn’t 
wait that long Um must have waited maybe like just over 5 minutes We’ll give her a wave and 
see what she thinks of it Oh she’s giving it her shanky We’ll find out her thoughts She got a 
bit wet Is a little bit wet just out on the side seat Should I go on yes Yes Is it droppy though no 
The only bit is you do a little drop go up a bit and then they just stop it So it jolts you back a 
little bit What like when it’s indoors indoors yes How’s the bit outside though outside completely 
fine To just like fast down but not drop you down Fast down or drop you down Okay Okay I’ll give 
it But how far is this drop indoors it’s a little drop but then because they shoot you back up and 
they just stop the ride Oh okay Is it before like   heading up here or something yes It’s on the way 
It’s halfway up there They just stop you Okay So you drop down So you go along a bit down up sharp 
stop rest of the way up and then the rest of the ride and then out in the water and then just 
a little boat ride back Okay I’ll give it a go That was the flying Dutchman George lied like that 
has dropping sensations in it in my opinion That’s the limit of what I could handle as a as a drop 
I enjoyed it It was fun it again Yeah I would go on it again but yeah when I if I was feeling a 
little bit crazy that would have definitely pushed   me over the edge Um nice little dark ride scene 
at the start and then a bit of speed and stuff out the back Um I quite like the first one That 
was a bit of a gradual drop but it was the ones   outside that were a bit like speed hills almost 
that were kind of getting me Um at the front I didn’t get too wet I don’t know about you The 
second to last row and there was a lot of Yeah maybe try at the front Um but yeah if you don’t 
like dropping it’s probably like maybe the limit of what you’ll handle Dragon is out and a bow It’s 
great how much um some characters entertainment that they have around the park here It really does 
make all the theming and the immersive nature of it absolutely great That was our last ride of 
the day but we’re now going to head off to a local restaurant not in the park but just outside 
the park And it is a place called Grilling So I went there last time but didn’t film it And it was 
amazing Absolutely great food there It’s not too badly priced So we’re going to go check that out 
and we’ll uh show you what it’s like in there For dinner we headed to a great local restaurant which 
is called Grilling and they serve tapas style food Here it is all you can eat for one price and they 
have a great selection available with things like   sushi carpacio burgers a particular favorite of 
ours uh was the saté chicken but you can also get other things such as mushrooms steak and a whole 
variety of different desserts It’s only a short drive from the Efteling Wonder Hotel of about 2 to 
3 minutes and so it’s a great place to check out on your visit Just finished up here at Eftling for 
the first full day Just got back from dinner at Grillin It’s like a local tapas place that does 
quite good quality food It’s like all you can   eat Um had variety of different dishes like sate 
chicken burgers sushi steak Yeah they sort of got it all on the menu What was your thoughts on your 
first day here at Efteling or first full day very good Got a lot done in that first half an hour 
especially with the extra time we got from staying in the hotel And breakfast here was very good And 
I love the pancake place Yeah Yeah Overall really good day Quite a lot of rides got in Eight times 
really weren’t that bad at all No And this weekend is also a bank holiday weekend here in Netherlands 
as well I booked it cuz I thought it wasn’t but it actually is And even the big rides like longest 
weights maybe like 35 minutes for some of the bigger coasters you can get through them a lot 
quicker with these single rider lanes as well Yeah   And the lines are moving quickly cuz there’s no um 
sort of like paid fast pass system here which I do quite like And um even like some of the more like 
dark rides as well like the weights for them a lot of them complete walk-ons apart from Symbolica 
that always has a bit of a cue but yes but even then it’s a sort of 25 30 I think we went in the 
morning which 35 minutes which was pretty much   spot on as well Overall I think a really good day 
here at Efteling Um had good food breakfast was good hotel’s been really good and we got our 
last day here tomorrow So welcome We are here for our last day in Etleing for this trip Uh here 
waiting for 9:30 for the early entry I think the plan is to head straight down to Dream Vulture 
again Yes Get a few rides on that and then see   where the day takes us I suppose Come and join us 
for our last day here at the Efteling Theme Park And we are in lovely day today Little bit better 
than yesterday morning and heading straight round past Vogel Rok and Carnival Festival which over 
there and down over to Doomvulche Hopefully get two or three rides in before the park even opens 
which would be great Few people are rope dropping carnival festival I don’t think there’s too much 
point rope dropping that one because it still has like 5 minute wait max pretty much walk on even 
once the park opens for a little bit I think it’s up at the back corner But we’re going to head 
down a little bit further in at Droomvulche Not the first on but one of the first on See how 
many rides we can get in on this one this morning managed to get three rides in on Droomvulche 
in the early entry time within the half an hour Takes about took us about 7 minutes to 
get down from when it opened at half past Um   pretty much walk on every single time There’s a 
little bit of a queue form in there now So yeah got there just in time Think it was the right 
one to go for Going to start heading up to   the other end of the park now So it’s heading 
up towards Carnival Festival which hopefully shouldn’t have too much of a weight No idea 
what George has found now Something about a golden hen Not sure what it does but we’ll 
uh soon find out She’s tapped card It’s €2 Not sure what it says cuz it’s in Dutch but 
it’s here Just in the sort of foot as you walk up from Dream Gulch Oh sounds 
like it’s going to lay a golden egg It did lay an egg Oh what’s inside oh interesting A little dragon A little 
dragon Its wings are in there And you add its wings to it What’s it made out 
of is it plastic yeah like a plastic   dragon Interesting She’s also gone and 
found another one There’s quite a few of these little gacha things in this area 
This one’s like a golden goose or duck Again they’re all sort of €2 I think the 
one with the pin so far has been the best What was it going to do it comes out down there That’s duck It is a duck Oh it’s like a little something 
sheep something Sheep I would say Interesting So this was the 
best one trying to give it here Hitting his anvils making it runs out Help one Squeeze the egg There 
we go I got a different one Like a guy in the top hat I like I’m 
going to wear it now And now we’re here at Carnival Festival Great little 
dark ride for everyone to love here Just found Carnival Festival Great ride 
there Catchy theme tune to say the least But now I’m going to head on Vogal Rock George 
doesn’t like this ride So I’m going to head on while she takes the little one back on Carnival 
Festival and hopefully Here we go Wait time 5 minutes Hopefully it should be have a walk 
on I’ll meet up with them again afterwards So I just did a ride on Vogel Rok which I think is 
a great like dark indoor coaster You can’t really see a lot The um effect kind of as you go through 
the serpent’s mouth is quite good And there’s kind   of one where you kind of go through a ring of 
lights is also good I find the laser that they kind of shine at you a bit disorientating But 
now we’re going to go on the spinning merchant boats which is called Siraco next These are quite 
lively spinning boats But the little one likes this one So check this ride out next Here they go 
Spinning Definitely got a bit of force on these ones Especially if you want it to be and you 
want to spin extra fast like some people are got some oomph on it got a bit more force on it than the ones at 
Legoland eh yes a bit more oomph to them Yeah there certainly is a storm on those ones There’s 
a storm stuck coming and it certainly does But just look showtime start at half 11 today for 
Ravenly So we’re just going to head over to the Tie Temple So that hasn’t got much of 
a weight And then hopefully head down and catch the show And here it is Such an iconic 
ride here at Efteling padagone I think that’s how you pronounce it But it’s the uh Thai 
temple that is rising up there in the air Some really nice views of the park here as 
we’re coming up See over there in the distance that’s the hotel that we’re staying at Wand up 
Sort of comes up And that’s a 360 That’s right You can see over there that’s the theater 
for Ravenleign Show us And then we’ve got the new Efteling Hotel See just below us 
now is Symbolica and they’ve even themed the roof here with the echoing sign A very 
beautiful show building there And over here we got coasters baron to sit down coaster down 
and you fly all the gondalas So we are heading down So just heading down to Raven which 
they got some of the park entertainment out today This the show with Joy and Birdie 
which happens just outside Carnival Festival that they got here Just next to Droomvulche is where the theatre is 
for the Ravenleign show which last time I saw it was excellent Hope it’s going to be just as good 
today Great theming in this area We’ve got all the like smoke and mist coming up the water over 
there Going to head over and through the castle So much more quiet since last time but 
it’s like a medieval style theatre We   were sitting literally right over there 
at the for last time We did rock up like 2 minutes before it started Really good 
themeing they got around here Ravenleign arch there These great sort of buildings in the   background We’ll show you some of 
the highlight clips of the show I’m glad to suicide Good Bathrooms Welcome to the bathroom But window what do you think of Raven evenly Very good 
show Lots of smoke fire water jets everything really Yeah it was all going on there Horses birds 
dragons not real dragons Sword fighting tricks on the horses Yeah I think it’s a really good show 
especially for a theme park Just the right amount   of time as well 20 minutes Not too long of a show 
Yeah I think they’ve got that one just right I think they’ve done a really good job with that one 
And next is lunch I’m going to go for one of the   Dutch hot dogs a Broady Unox So I have gone for 
the Apollo No it’s not plant-based It’s available in plant-based but this is the meat version This 
is the special Dutch hot dog It was uh €650 Got like mayo tomato sauce crispy onions and I think 
gerkins on there as well Proper loaded up Time for another kids meal So I’m going to head to Parad 
She’s going to get something and I’m going to eat my hot dog Oo bit busier in here today Highly 
recommend the hot dog It’s at least on par with the one that I had here over Christmas And that 
was a chili cheese dog over Christmas And that was like crispy onions tomato sauce mayonnaise I 
think Gerings another gluten-free kids meal for George Can’t go wrong with chicken and chips In 
this beautiful building here is one of the oldest carousels I think in Europe And I believe the 
carousel there’s a steam one is actually older than the park itself It’s I think one of the best 
carousels there is out there So we’re going to go on this one next It goes It’s not much of a cue 
so hopefully we’ll be on the next one around But you can um really smell it when you come in 
It’s got that very kind of a steam treey smell George really wants to put something in the 
bin Oh no that’s not Oh it’s not sucking as well I think he’s full Okay might need to find 
another bin Not sure if I’m going to regret my life choices but George wants to do piranha 
It’s only a 10 minutes so should have to wait too long It’s not the warmest today I really 
don’t want to get wet but we’ll see how it goes You agre no It’s quite wet this one A little bit 
Don’t listen to what anyone tells you cuz you do get wet on PRA If anyone tells you don’t you do 
Just a little bit Just a little bit It’s quite good with the way that like as you go through 
some of like the water jets and things fall off   like cancel off so you don’t get as wet So that’s 
good But George said no merch today and she’s end up with a piranha bracelet Yeah How much was 
it €750 Okay Not too bad but still a bit pricey Yeah So that ride was quite good though I do say 
And I don’t think it has a minimum height limit which is which is nice But yeah good good speed 
I think that’s one of the best sort of uh raft rides when we were a while But now we’re going to 
head down Probably our last ride on Fatam Moana Just did Fata Morgana It’s close to 15 but 
it was only a 10 Yeah wait times have been pretty good here today if not accurate or 
maybe a little bit um under which been nice Just here at Symbolica now Posted at 8:30 
So we’re going to time it Let’s see how long it takes But got a bit more cloudy 
here unfortunately Hopefully the weather   will get a bit nicer before we leave But um 
the rain’s holding off That’s the main thing Opening No no no no no no This time we did the heroes tour on Sympolica 
I think I preferred that over the treasure Absolutely treasure Treasure The only one we 
haven’t done this time is the music but I did do that one last time But all three of them are 
really really good And I like that every time you   go on the ride you can get a slightly different 
experience of it which is always quite nice We’re just going to head down towards the front of 
the park and go on the hunt for some snacks Have carture ice cream here Uh 190 for one scoop 28 for 
two 370 for three Just got the little one Couple of scoops of vanilla It’s our favorite George also 
couldn’t help herself So you got two scoops that apparently was gluten-free Pistachio and triple 
chocolate And how is it cart Dior I believe Yes So my favorite thing on the last trip was these 
the Ollie goal And I did get a lot of comments in my video that I was saying it wrong and I called 
it a Dutch donut but in my defense it does say traditional Dutch donut underneath Thank you for 
the comments there But yeah the oligogen Very excited to try these again Is by far my favorite 
thing I got five five or six and I’m feeling nice I’m going to take Jamie back some cuz I know 
he also love these So the oligogans are very   dangerous They get very messy You can see on the 
floor there’s like a massacre of them everywhere And yeah I’m slightly wearing them now But they 
are really really good I ate three Jamie’s got the other three Maybe See if any actually no I’m 
not eating them in the car cuz it would destroy it All right Luckily I got wet wipes The joy of 
a child that there’s always wet wipes around So we’ve just headed out to the front of the 
park because unfortunately we miss this amazing entrance which you get if you enter from this side 
It’s the one downside I think of staying at the Wonder Hotel is that you don’t get to enter 
from here So we even got these like amazing stained glass windows It’s really really huge 
wooden structure It’s really really good coming in from this way I really missed out If you’re 
looking for the best gift shop this is probably   the one by the the entrance You know they got all 
the room sets They’re like $15 sorry €15 each You like hand soaps and stuff They’re €13 Quite 
quite pricey The same that they have in the   hotels And they do smell really good But they 
got loads of merch No carnival festival stuff suitcases and then yeah classic like cups 
lunch boxes mugs and things These are about €11 Yeah and water bottles 13 Okay Water bottles 
More than the lunch boxes Yeah Some very nice um sort of mugs plates crockery style 
things Obviously your classic soft toys as well Fairly good selection of merch here 
I forgot to bring a belt and they do not sell belts here which is a bit of a shame So 
I’ve been struggling last couple of days   Coming up to our last ride of the trip now Have 
to start heading off soon We’re going to finish up with the fairy tale forest So we still haven’t 
done that yet It’s been so busy What’s our last ride going to be fat ride Got to be this one 
Especially after we stayed in the Fatima sweep Last ride there on Fatima Remembered the photo 
this time Yeah we’ve been on that four times in total and we’ve only got the photo twice Uh we’ve 
not been very good at remembering it but we got it that time Just going to have a wander through 
the fairy tale forest and then unfortunately I think it’s time to start heading out cuz we 
got the long drive back to Cal But we’ll uh show you what the fairy tale forest is like first 
Just heading on into the fairy tale forest Have a quick muse around here before heading up and 
out see what some of the uh fairy tales are George wants to try and catch a 
flying coin out of the donkey’s bum She failed a bit there How much was it i think €2 So that’s the end of our trip here to Efteling 
What were your thoughts on it i really enjoyed   it Q times are very short Really like the the 
theme dinner we had at the hotel restaurant Overall very good Yeah bring it back holiday The 
wait times actually been reasonably reasonable and much less than what we had over Christmas 
So definitely a good time of year to come uh sort of start of May Yeah I think rides have 
been good All the attractions here always good They operate the park really really well Uh good 
amount of stuff sort of getting people on turning over for sort of all the rides Everything works 
as well and there’s very little downtime So I don’t think we’ve ever been in a queue and 
like anything’s broken down at any point   So I’m really impressed with the operations the 
running and just the overall like cleanliness and the quality of the park here It’s 
absolutely outstanding Where would   you rather go though here Disneyland Paris cuz 
they’re both about the same journey from Calais I don’t know Like on this particular weekend 
I think here is better on this weekend Yeah I think Disney is good and they’re both very 
different I don’t think they’re comparable at   all really But um given the choice particularly 
on this weekend I would probably choose to come here You know you can actually get stuff done You 
actually get to enjoy yourself It’s not manic You don’t feel rushed Feel like we could have still 
done more but I feel like we equally got enough done So I don’t know I think it’s a tough one 
Depends what you’re after but this weekend   I think this is definitely a good shout A lot 
cheaper as well Well that’s it from the last of our uh Efteling videos Please do go watch 
the others if you haven’t if you’ve enjoyed   this one And also do check out our tour of the new 
Efteling Wonder Hotel as well which has been newly refurbished cuz we had a great stay there But 
until next time thank you for watching Bye-bye

In addition to exploring all that Efteling has to offer in the theme park, we also spend a night at the newly refurbished Efteling Wonder Hotel and stay in their MOST expensive Suite (Fata Morgana Suite).

We had a great time at this amazing theme park, and would highly recommend a trip to Efteling to anyone. It is one of our favourite theme parks in the world, and we are always looking forward to returning there again.

  1. I think there is an English translation of the Villa volta story on the wall in the waiting line. (by the way.. it's " Max and MoriiiiTz 😆

  2. Nice vlog of Efteling ! Most people think Efteling started as the fairytale forest but it started as a main football field with 2 practice football fields and a playground. They added more and more to the playground and more and more peoeple with kids started coming. Then they decided to built the Fairtale Forest and people all over the country start ed coming. Efteling is not owned by a big company like Disney but by a foundation so that is why it is cheaper than Disney. So they have less budget to built rides than Disney has. Still Symbolica and Danse Macabre cost 30 million euro's each; which made Symbolica the most expensive ride in The Benelux at one point.

    I noticed you didnt go on Danse Macabre that ride is new and a lot of people's new favorite they choose over Symbolica. I went to the original Disneyland in the US and I was a bit dissapointed. Efteling is twice the size of the original Disneyland and I think I was a bit spoiled with Efteling. I would choose Efteling over Disney parks any day. Efteling can only built on 11% of the land due to all the animale and birds that live there so they have to demolish an existing ride to built a new one like they did with haunted castle Spookslot and Danse Macabre.

    Altough they did announce they will be building 3 drop towers near coaster Baron 1898. Could be good for parents who both want to go on Baron and take turns with the kids on the drop coasters. I also heard Efteling bought extra land to built rides on maybe for a big epic coaster which the park is missing according to thrillriders. By the way oliebollen aka oil balls Dutch people only eat on New Years Eve usually. Or at fairs or themeparks. They are said to be the predecessor of donuts. The story goes that a Dutch woman went to live in the US and was intending to bake oliebollen but did bot have all ingrediënts and then invented donuts. I choose oliebollen over donuts any day.

    I did not see you take something from the hot snack vending machines in Efteling. Usually people from other countries try them out. We have the hot snack vending machines since the 70 s all over the country in chippies / snackbars in a chain called FEBO. Most sold snacks from these hot snack vending machines are frikandel, kroket, kaassouffle, bami and kipcorn. New York use to have these hot snack vending machines but they dissappeared. I was told the mob got control over them and that is why they disspeared.

    I have heard thrill riders say they would never return to Efteling; they did not appreciate what a beautiful park it is; so it is nice to see you both enjoyed Efteling and appreciatie it for what it is. I heard people from the UK have annual passes to Efteling which blew my mind. Will you come back to Efteling at one point ?

  3. Villa Volta is the prototype Vekoma Madhouse (first of it's kind, Hex in Alton Towers I believe was the second one ever installed, but correct me if I'm wrong). But the story is about a criminal guild of plundering criminals that looted a local abby, which the guardian of the abby, the woman in white that is on front of Hugo's Mansion, has haunted it's mansion, and spins the room up-side-down until someone with the soul of an unborn child enters his mansion.

  4. Also, I would not advise Grillig to anyone. Multiple bad experiences there as a season pass holder. If you had a good experience there, you were absolutely lucky.😅
