Can you imagine your first night on the job as a ride attendant, you arrive there and get amazed by all the bright lights and the big crowds and then you ask the supervisor where I am I working, and then takes you to the back of the place where its all dead, and after 4 hours the supervisor asks how you doing? and you say no one is here, no one has asked to ride on this. lol
The Global Burj drop tower is the best ride at this park without a doubt, and I think it’s probably the best drop tower I’ve ever written. Keep in mind that I only rode a couple so I didn’t get to experience drop towers such as Zuman Jaro or Lex Luthor. However out of the ones I have experienced I prefer Global Burj the most. The theme is so good and I love the drop sequence. Also I am so glad that they let you film on ride POV‘s.
Excellent video Shawn and Charlotte from Global Village Dubai to check out this unique journey to various different pavilions across the world! In this vlog, we explore everything that Global Village has to offer, including checking out the awesome carnival ride area with on-ride povs. We also take a stroll through the various different pavilions, watch a fantastic laser show, and much more! keep the good videos coming on the channel, Shawn and Charlotte.😀😀👍👍
That's why all the rides at these places are quiet, everything is so expensive. Makes sense lol still dont know how they survive for years and make money to keep it open.
I loved the global Village as it was incredible and looked amazing with all the countries and the lights it's a pity the uk doesn't have this kind of thing.
I really like Korea, Japan and Thailand and a lot of people here in Cornwall and Devon have been very negative towards the culture and language. So I’m not sure it will go down well
Visited in 2019. Absolutely loved it. Fly France however was such a disappointment. It spinned so slowly that I could not manage a single loop, and that for like €7-ish. Although I like that they don't seem to have increased the prices in the last 5 years, unlinke fairs in Europe. Definitely want to go back one day. It's so beautiful!
The locals in the UAE love a cheap night out or something free that’s why it’s always busy here compared to the theme parks !! Locals are not willing to pay £60 to get into a theme park or pay £30 for a few rides in an indoor amusement park ! When I went to Global Village in December 2019 you literally couldn’t move for the amount of people yet just a few hours before we was at IMG Worlds of Adventure (which is literally a 10min drive away) was completely empty
If anyone’s interested in the pricing: Drop tower 42 points £8.40 Ghost train 25 points £5 Ferris Wheel 60 points £12 (£6 x 2) Vekoma 35 points £7.00 Not too bad in my opinion but is more on the expensive side especially with the short cycles.
Similar what I was thinking watching this vlog. The drop tower he said wasn’t worth it is equivalent to £8.40, but in winter wonderland last month the tower he deemed “worth it” was £9? Make it make sense
Isn’t the pricing similar to winter wonderland/travelling carnivals in the uk. Just taking one example 32 points for a ride would roughly be about £6 if you assume 1 point = 1 dirham and some rides at winter wonderland are around £9/10
Shawn and Charlotte, It seems that the whole purpose of that park is relieve you of your money, you can't even haggle over the prices like traditional Arabian street Bazaars!. I really hate getting ripped off whether a park or a restaurant or whatever! I'm sorry, but this is the major "Theme"in their parks. Cheers, Rik Spector
Looks like winter wonderland on steroids and with summer climate. I'll let Charlotte off for not going on drop tower it looked huge. I am well behind on these vlogs, loving all of them so far.
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Well they bought Teststrecke for the Dubai contract in 2020. So I wonder where Mellors is operating in Dubai or the emirates now then.
I'm glad you try to always go on the dark rides, even at the risk of them not being that good. Always appreciate seeing them. However, I actually think you were a bit harsh on that ghost train - it didn't look too bad from my point of view. Quite a few creepy animatronics and scenes. I think you've definitely been on worse! 😆👻
Another great video from you really appreciate that you do these vlogs this time of year I rode Air Maxx when it was in the uk.keep up with the videos love them.thanks❤👍🏴
Why are so many people just acknowledging Shawn , hi Shawn and Charlotte hope you are having fun together , I love how you both bounce off each other and work together as a team xx
Enjoying seeing your trip but is their a problem with your camera? It all seems to be a bit jittery which is a little bit uncomfortable to view.apologoes if this has already been mentioned and addressed
@ThemeParkWorldwide they really need to invest in towers they are making it look worn down and lack of rides pbp is looking much better which is a sad thing I hope they bring it back to life when I worked there it was amazing place to work and go ppl never had a bad word to say
Hey Shawn I’ve currently got a terrible cough. Honestly, it’s so bad that if you were here, you’d need to wear full PPE! You’d need a mask, gloves and everything I would approve of! But your videos help me out. I’d say I’m starting to feel better now. I haven’t been coughing as much today.
I think that light up text on the Ferris wheel is from another wheel. New tech that creates a spinning screen. It’s a projection on the arms of a spinning device. A few toys were made like that with two arms that project images and animations.
Always buy your currency from your bank at home before you travel Shawn, you pay current exchange with no commission, it will save you a lot over paying in pounds or even exchanging in country.

What a snazzy cultural set up within this theme park love it.
🕌🏯⛩🎡🗼🌎🗽🌁🕍🕋🛕
Global Village has been my favorite place to visit! The most important thing is the rides!
The background during your ending changing colors was really cool too. Great video.
It was great!
This is gonna be a BANGER!!!!

@@ThemeParkWorldwide@ThemeParkWorldwide hows this trip going
@@ThemeParkWorldwideheeeeey
@@ThemeParkWorldwidehey hopefully you can ride nemesis soon
Ive been really looking forward to this vlog. Ive seen alot about global village on tiktok so its been good to see an in-depth vlog about it ☺️
It’s a great place. Absolutely massive too!
Wow, what an amazing place especially lit up at night. So much to see. Love watching your vlogs both of you ❤
The shopping complex looks very interesting, the amusement park section reminds me of Hyde Park Winter Wonderland.
I watch your videos every day at work. They are very entertaining. I can't wait to see your journey into the world of Ferrari
Thank you! It’s on the way later today!

Another job well done Shawn and Charlotte!! What a unique park! Carnival meets market lol loved all the themes and how it's laid out.
Thank you. It’s a huge place!

That is some cool theme this park has
Looks like a glorified East Gate Market at Fantasy Island in Ingoldmells 😅
It does! 😂
I loved the look of Charlotte's mac and cheese as that's 1 of my fav foods lol.
Another great video. Hope you enjoyed your trip 😊😊
Thanks!

It was Mellors Speed wave topscan that operated at GV, The beast had a new lighting package and was renamed as Top Buzz before going to Riyadh
Used to love the beast!

Just wondering how much do theme parks cost in other countries?
Fantastic video I hope you guys are having a nice time ❤
We’re having a great time!

Thanks for doing this, it’s very hard to work it out as you’re going along with the point system!
Looked an amazing place but Woweeeeee that’s expensive 😁😁😁😄😄😄😄😄

It seems so when you break it down!
Loving Dubai vlogs ❤
Thank you!
Global Village is one of the BEST places in the world for food and you get a portion of chips?
It’s such a great place! We had a big meal before visiting so only wanted a snack!
That reminds me of Disney Springs in Orlando, Florida.
Nice to see something actually busy at Dubai haha
It was heaving!
Whats the best trying food in wich country?
Shawn and Charlotte,
It seems that the whole purpose of that park is relieve you of your money, you can't even haggle over the prices like
traditional Arabian street Bazaars!.
I really hate getting ripped off whether a park or a restaurant or whatever!
I'm sorry, but this is the major "Theme"in their parks.
Cheers,
Rik Spector
It can be quite a hassle walking around some areas, however it’s best to just keep walking!
Looks amazing 👏
what equipment do you use for vlogs,POVS etc?
We use a Sony camera for the vlogs and GoPro for the POV’s
Brilliant vlog
Thanks!
Great Vlog as always Shawn and Charlotte, Global Village sure is massive
It’s a huge space!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide it definitely is, I 100% agree
This is a lovely video, it really is! 😁
Thanks!
looks like the only bussy park in dubai
It gets so busy here!
40 points about £8 per ride then roughly.
Looks like winter wonderland on steroids and with summer climate. I'll let Charlotte off for not going on drop tower it looked huge. I am well behind on these vlogs, loving all of them so far.
This park is run by Mellors entertainment U.K. or at least they got the contract.
They only had it until 2019 according to their website
@@JohnHarris-wc7jd Allright. They bought Teststrecke for this park. A schwarzkopf looper.
It used to be, however that changed quite a few years ago!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Well they bought Teststrecke for the Dubai contract in 2020. So I wonder where Mellors is operating in Dubai or the emirates now then.

Good morning Charlotte and Shawn how are you feeling today
We’re good thank you!
Looks a lovely place - I see they have got one non existent country represented however
Looks good there
Beautiful great free parking thank you for another vlog enjoyed
Plenty of free parking at the attractions over here!
Another great video from you really appreciate that you do these vlogs this time of year I rode Air Maxx when it was in the uk.keep up with the videos love them.thanks❤👍🏴

What an amazing place for you 2 visit ! xx

We can only use the tripod in certain parks and areas in Dubai unfortunately
I assumed this was the World's Fair, which ended up being held in 2021 due to COVID
That’s a separate area known as Dubai Expo 2020!
Bro. I went ten days before you did😅
Awesome Video Guys 😄😄
A question closer to home been told there no new flats this year at alton towers hope that's no true image how big the qs are going be wow
There’s no plans for new flats this year as far as we know!
@ThemeParkWorldwide they really need to invest in towers they are making it look worn down and lack of rides pbp is looking much better which is a sad thing I hope they bring it back to life when I worked there it was amazing place to work and go ppl never had a bad word to say
I’m happy u loved it ! (Time for Warner bros - Abu Dhabi)
Vlog on the way in a few days!
The smell here must be something, with all the different food cooking, and the BO and bad breath (not Shawn and Charlotte 😅)
yeeeeeees shawn sanbrooke
Do you like slipknot? If so, what’s your favourite slipknot song?
What was your best
Enjoyed the drop tower the best 🤩
How much does London loop costs? Because I want to get credits
My cousins were there on the day you were😭
We had such a good time!
You should have gone to the action show with the cars and bikes,rivals any show in Florida was really good
It wasn’t on the day we visited sadly
Hey Shawn I’ve currently got a terrible cough. Honestly, it’s so bad that if you were here, you’d need to wear full PPE! You’d need a mask, gloves and everything I would approve of! But your videos help me out. I’d say I’m starting to feel better now. I haven’t been coughing as much today.
Hey well soon!
I think I saw a Baskin Robbins ice-cream shop Shawn, very good ice-cream, just saying, I know you both love a good ice-cream.
They are very good!
Your videos always make me smile. 😁
I agree
That’s what we love to hear 😃
I’m so happy to hear that. @@ThemeParkWorldwide

It’s very cool!
Dubai is so futuristic
Hope your enjoying your time in Dubai
We’re loving it thank you!
Sorry both its boarded
We had a good time!
Always buy your currency from your bank at home before you travel Shawn, you pay current exchange with no commission, it will save you a lot over paying in pounds or even exchanging in country.
We use starling and it works out the best deal with the live exchange rate!
The thing is you are probably left with a few points that you don’t know what to use it on as it’s not enough so you end up buying more 😉good trick 😂
The ride attendants looks so BOREDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD lol with no customers going on the rides lol
🌎🌍🌏
I love your videos, but respectively, you really need to concentrate on enunciating your words. You are really hard to understand.
Thanks for watching! We won’t be changing who we are though, this is how we’ll be staying!
Just to tell you if dont know Nemesis reborn is now testing
It sure is!
Shame LGBTQ+ people can't enjoy these places
Totally agree, the place gives me the creeps knowing how anti-LGBTQ+ it is
The rules are definitely more relaxed now than they used to be, so they are heading in the right direction it seems
@@ThemeParkWorldwide great new Shaun, thanks for keep us posted! Keep up with fantastic information and content! ❤️
Themepark worldwide has great videos but your food choices are TERRIBLE! 😂
We like to keep it basic as we’re here for the rides and experiences!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide yea very basic 😂 definitely not a food or culture channel but we are here for the rides and all your knowledge on them
👍
I heard in 2024, walibi Holland getting a monorail coaster 🫠 would be the first in Europe
Can’t wait for the single rails! 2025 it seems!
