![*MOST* Underrated Theme Park in the Netherlands?! Toverland - Sevenum, Netherlands | VLOG [7/16/22]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/XTuQ2RzUwbI/mqdefault.jpg)
About the criticisms like ‘the ride is too short’ or ‘it’s not the highest drop’ etc, is irrelevant. The park is meant to be taken at a leasurely pace: the people at Efteling are not thrill ride builders; they’re story tellers. And that shows…
Efteling is my home park and I love it, but I disagree with this statement. If somebody thinks a ride is to short or not exciting enough thats a perfectly valid criticism. Why not, if thats their opinion? I dont tthink its that strange if you have to wait for Baron for 60 min and your ride takes 1:30, your conclusion is... wow that was great, but it would have been cool if it was longer? Actually, a lot of people's vlog mention this so you cant just dismiss that with : "You are wrong, your opinion is irrelevant". I understand it not a thrill park like Walibi Flevo for example, but then again, the rides at Disney are usually a lot longer too than at the Efteling. I do think the dark rides are fine but the coasters definitely could have been a bit longer. That doenst mean they are not good, just that there is always room for improvement.
My parents have an efteling subscription. I go like 7 times per year and I always just go in the dark rides, my stomache hurts in coaster.
@@ageoflove1980 baron isn’t 60 minutes if you go in the queue at a good time. Especially around 1 PM for like 5-10 mins the queue time can get as low as 10 minutes. (this is how I avoid the wait)
I work at Efteling and I definitely don't think it is irrelevant, you might disagree with the criticism about the ride being too short but it is still valid criticism, I love baron but if it had another inversion or something I think it would be even better because it really feels like the ride's over in a few seconds. I do get where you're coming from though, it is not a nice feeling if people only look at the layout and not the whole package.
I agree. Exactly what it is; Storytelling. U can find other parks where Thrill seeking is what they r about, just not The Efteling.
The story of Symbolica is pretty much you are granted an audience with the king, the guy on the stairs is explaining all the rules of the meeting and Pardoes, the court jester (and Efteling mascot since 1989) shows up saying how boring this all is and he uses a spell to grant you entrance to the "cooler" parts of the castle. The story of Villa Volta is about Hugo whose group of bandits raids an abbey and is cursed by God. His house is cursed until someone with a pure soul enters, so he asks you to enter the house in hopes of lifting his curse.
The trashcans being a sort of attraction in itself is just super smart. You often see kids just looking around if they can find an empty can so than they can make it say funny stuff. No wonder the park is mostly nice and clean all the time :D
PAPIER HIER
God this park looks GORGEOUS!!!!! Definitely towards the top of my bucket list!
I’m proud of this theme park that I live in the Netherlands, if you get the change go to the theme park
Nope to me not after what I just saw
As someone who’s been there many times…
I understand it’s on your bucket list.
It is more than gorgeous. 😂
@@isaacmadrigaljr3333 why so?
Efteling, The Netherlands, began in 1952 (celebrating 70 years this year) and as you said, started with the fairytale forest. The Indian Waterlilies (as shown in your video) was invented by Queen Fabiola of Belgium. In 1982 the Python was opened and other coasters and darkrides were opened as well. The Gondoletta's sailing in the park was the original track to Fatamorgana, and was meant to be a test track, but then they decided to keep it as it was, so families could take a pause, enjoy the park while eating what they had brought along. So The track in Fatamorgana is a smaller copy of it!
Efteling has received numerous prices incluiding the Best Amusement Park in Europe. Most theming was done by Anton Pieck untill the eighties, but the park still designs in his footpath! You'll notice that Pieck was hooked on the stories and theming of The Grimm Brothers. You probably missed the showground like in Phatasialand.
I grew up only 20km from there, so I am a bit biased, but this is by far the best park for families with children of different ages.
Thanks for your overview. Nice to see an American perspective.
I'm so glad to live in Germany, so Efteling is not too far away :) It's my favourite theme park in Europe :D
And I also love your vlog so much ;) The impressions are greatly summarized and your comments were so liekable :D But I have actually never seen any coaster at Efteling not operating for the entire day in person, so that was out of luck...
Joris en de Draak has caused quite a few issues recently.
13:00
My favorite part of the flying Dutchman is actually the waiting room. There is just so much to appreciate and that is very important if you have to wait 30 minutes or more.
Unless you're claustrofobic 😅. I loved the theming, but I felt a bit trapped in the small, cramped spaces.
@@plumdutchess One criticism I do have is that it would have been nice if they had used it as an opportunity to tell the story of the Flying Dutchman. Maybe putting it in panels along the waiting room or have it narrated in the boat just before the ride.
So cool to see you in my country, Marc. I grew up near Efteling. It's such a beautiful, green, well-themed park. Shame Joris wasn't dueling, but glad you had a great time.
I've heard track issues have been ongoing for like half a year if not more causing one track to be out of order
@@Jaydenfok im dutch and my favorite animal are the ducks
@@Jaydenfok I was there during the fall school vacation and the track from Joris was completely taken apart. You could see parts of the track behind the fence at the Python. I think it'll be closed for a while.
@@plumdutchess they redid a few parts of the track. It's all working and gooing smooth nkw ;)
Villa Volta is a "mad house", in which the room around you flips around to give a trippy feeling. You also swing just a little add to that effect.
This was the first Vekoma madhouse and it’s won awards and such. I absolutely adore the attraction. The backstory and theme are quite dark but the building itself isn’t, yet it’s still eerie and unsettling. Also the music is just the best theme park music ever made. It’s incredible.
Yes, it was the first. Villa Volta is actually the prototype of this type of attraction.
i love how you keep saying "people said i should ride this" - its so funny how european enthusiasts will basically guide visitors from far away through their parks because they are so proud of it :D well, i am the same way haha.
i just found your channel and have been watching all your europe vlogs, one of the best vlog series i've seen, keep it up!
I love it too! I think it’s such a fun surprise. thanks for the support!!!
A few comments to explain some things. Python was actually retracked by Efteling themselves, not Vekoma! Additionally Villa Volta is a Vekoma mad house (first of its kind). There are a few more in Europe (Walibi Holland, Alton Towers etc.)
Phantasialand has one too :D
Python is retracked bbc csm. It's a Belgian company.
Been living vicariously through your videos the past week or two. Loving all these parks and rides. Thanks man!
Glad you’re enjoying the series! It means the world.
This park looks amazing! I skipped the symbolica pov in case I ever visit but the whole place appears to have a atmosphere of pure magic
Dude, you’ve gotten very (un)lucky! I’ve been to the Efteling dozens of times, go there about once a month and never have I seen just one side of Joris en de Draak operating. Weird!
Same here. However, about two weeks ago it was announced that the ride will be closed for 3 months for extended renovations. Parts of the wooden structure are to be replaced with steel and general repairs and maintenance will be performed (including the dragon). Maybe the single line operating was a foreshadowing of that.
It was completely closed when I was there last month.
I really love the Villa Volta even as a kid. The story is extremely engaging especially and I hope it never goes away. If they have to rebuild it because of age I hope they make it again like it was. Maybe the only thing to change is to install telescoping doors so that they can get rid of the alert notification as it really breaks the atmosphere.
I live near Postel it’s surreal
Small correction on the thumbnail, the map shown is neither the map of the Netherlands or that of the Benelux. It is the area where Dutch is spoken which is the Netherlands and part of Belgium.
The watercoaster is called the Flying Dutchman in Dutch. It tells the story of an arrogant captain who goes to sea on Easter and on Sunday, both of which are said to bring bad luck. He gets stuck in a storm and his crew transforms into ghosts, his ships starts flying, and he is cursed to sail until the end of time.
Joris en de draak had track issues, you're lucky it was open indeed! By now they changed part of the track to metal, for durability reasons.
Fatamorgana is even more impressive when you realize that Efteling invented the technology to make it work. The animatronics are operated by cables, and the "programming" is done by grooves on a drum, and pegs moving in the grooves, making the animatronics move. And they maintain this tech to this day!
they should just RMC it,make it a dueling RMC hybrid coaster,1 side for kids and the other for the extreme coaster nutjobs
There are several photobombs in the first half of the video that are hilarious. Beautiful park.
The story of Symbolica is pretty simple: You arrive at the palace of the king for an audience. His butler , Mr. O.J. Punctuel, prepares you for the audience with a long list of rules you have to follow. His name is a pun because it means more or less exactly that. While boring you to death with naming all those rules, he is interuppted by the court jester, Pardoes. He opens up the stairs in order for you to take a detour through the palace so you can avoid the Punctuel guy and his dumb rules.
And with this your alternative tour through the palace begins. During the tour you can spot the butler Puncuel here and there spying on you because he just doenst trust you, hiding in some weird places. All end well of course because after exploring the palace you finally end up at the kings feast where he appears to be happy to see you, you do a final dance and that concludes your visit. So yeah, not exactly Shakespeare, but thats the point because you dont have to understand to story to enjoy the ride, because all it comes down to is just a tour of a fantasy palace.
The 3 tours are not that different, its just one section thats different, but its kinda cool they make use of the trackless system to make it possible. The interactive thing is the only bit that is underwhelming about the ride and seems like a bit of an afterthought. At some points in the tour you can make the vehicle turn a bit to the one or other side, and make some colours appear or make a different musical instrument play or whatever but it doenst seem to do much. Some people argue that the attraction would have been better without the interactive thing because it just distracts from the experience and i probably agree with that opinion.
21:18 'he just er, hit a bong an now he's just ah....' Fuming out? Haaahahaha
It's said that Walt Disney visited the Efteling in the 1950s and that that visit was the inspiration for him to make Disneyland
Which is a false myth. He was in Europe around the time they claim him to be at Eftelig but he never visited the park.
It is true however, that imagineers and technicians of the Disney parks visit occasionally for inspiration
@@The_Joestar Yeah. The park he actually visited was Tivoli Gardens in Denmark.
Are you from the usa? Its nice to see someone from the USA actually make a decent vlog about de efteling, truly its one of the best vlogs from an american going to efteling out there! Also it's nice you point out Efteling is independently owned. Also your camerwork is great, the framing as well as composition is just so clean and beautiful, it makes the park come across well. You rock!
Thank you very much! I live in California 😄
Very generous of you. It means the world
I was gonna come to say the same thing. I've seen a couple American vlogs, but they always seem so sour in that they keep comparing to Disneyland and such and never get their facts straight (like that the Efteling is a knock off Disney when in fact Walt Disney came to the Efteling for inspiration, so it's the other way around). Also thank you for appreciating the impact of theming and how the length of a ride doesn't have to be a problem when the theming beforehand is great.
@@Anjuly. the Efteling was there before Disney,. that's true, but Walt never actually visited the park. It's an urban legend that keeps showing up from time to time. He did go to Madurodam in Den Haag and Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen for inspiration though.
villa volta is about someone who's house gets cursed that's why its spinning (this is just a small summary of the entire story that you hear in the preshow)
The story is vital to appreciating the ride fully. Wish there were earbuds or screens for foreign visitors.
I am actually kind of mad they didn't do a full narration during the flying Dutchman. You have a long way of slowly moving through the dark tunnel. They could have given a little more detail.
thank you for adding Vlaanderen on the Dutch map in your thumbnail. Now we (dutch people) can transform Vlaanderen into a parkinglot
I just klicked because im dutch and you put all of the Benelux under the dutch flag!
The Watercaster is just the flying dutchman 😉
Efteling is the best theme park ever everything has a story and everything is so detailed I love to go there
Shout out to all the dutch fellows
I would have liked that they gave the whole story of the flying Dutchmen during the ride. Similar to the Villa Volta.
Every time I hear that music from villa volta I get goosebumps all over my body! So many memories
Enjoy your videos. Lol teenage girls following. 🤩
This looks better than Disney tbh and it’s a FAMILY OWNED PARK!!!!??? Can’t believe what I’m seeing
I still cannot believe this is an independent park.
It's not family owned haha, it's also not a chain park tho
@@woutertermaat385 well that’s what I figured because it wasn’t chain owned
It isn't a family-owned park. But an independent foundation that is the owner and only share holder. It started as a recreation and sports park and in the fifthies, the fairy tale Forrest was added and is the oldest part. Some of the attractions have its own story or myth. Like the flying Dutch man, villa villa, Joris and the dragon. It is a beautiful park. Besides money it is built with love and that you can see even in the garbage tin called Holle Bolle Gijs.
@@Qq-vh5jq thank you for informing me! The place looks awesome!
I love to see your amazing review on the park, but one thing. The BeNeLux map is wrong, it only shows the Netherlands and Flanders (The Dutch-Speaking part of Belgium), it misses Wallonia (the French speaking part of Belgium), Brussels (Capital region of Belgium) and the entire nation of Luxembourg. 😅
Was gonna like the video, then saw there were “420” likes on a video about a park in... the Netherlands. Let it be. 😂
the watercoaster is called like this for internationals translateded its The flying dutchman
the baron is always so busy thats why i never ride it and once it broke and we were in the que for a hour of two
Did I just hear shade thrown at Lightning Racer?
I enjoy Lightning Racer quite a lot, I just thought Joris en de Draak did everything better.
@@CoasterDash cool. I’ve gotta get to the Netherlands I guess.
I was there for three days in October. Unfortunately Symbolica, Joris and Villa Volta were closed.
the pirate one was called the flying Dutchman
de vliegende hollander (flying dutchman) is the water coster, i think you all know what the stort is now :)
phython is the first loop coster in europ
eftelng is a lot older than disney, disney is inspired by efteling!
The soundtrack in Efteling is amazing too!
You are lucky to have ridden Joris en de Draak. It has a lot of problems, so thats why it was only open with 1 track. In October its getting a 3 mont during renovation from GCI.
Efteling is a company that is run by 1 share holder. And that is there own Stichting Natuur Park de Efteling. Its an interesting setting. They want to invest milions but they dont wanne los power in the company. Its realy smart. This share holder is made up out of realy realy powerfull people and they have a big eye on nostalgia. Al the rides are given a lot of love and money, even if they are a maintenance nightmare, this share holder dos not give a f*ck. If they whant it, it stays no questions asked.
Thats why Python was rebuild. Not very much of the normal people know this. The efteling is like: the grand grand childeren stil can ride this awesome coaster that there great great grandpa first rided. That the power of Efteling. They build icons, not rides
Yes its my home park, yes I still work at Python and yes I see big generation gaps with alderly, and there ofspring still riding Python together. YES MY ENGLISH IS BAD 🤣
I still love the park, but I think that reputation has been damaged a little bit.
They couldn’t really do much about Bob. It was a maintenance nightmare, had low capacity and Intamin bobsled parts are rare. I don’t really know where the removal of Polka Marina came from. Panda Dream was fine but it was outdated. It’s a good decision that they changed the film into Fabula, whilst keeping some attributes of Panda Dream. Most attractions that are removed, do still share the DNA with the former attractions, which is nice. Monsieur Cannibale really had to go. Sirocco is faster and has greater theming. I quite like the Adventure Maze, but I guess Archipel is fine too. Not really meant for people my age anyway.
The removal of Spookslot really hurt. I’m quite young but have fond memories of it, but my parents grew up with this one. It might be outdated, but that’s part of the charm. It’s the first big attraction that kickstarted Efteling’s transformation into a full fledged theme park. I heard the building didn’t match safety standards, but they rebuilt Python. They could’ve rebuilt Spookslot. It was apparently the lowest rated attraction among park guests. That would’ve been another reason to end it. It still hurts. I think Danse Macabre is going to be great, but I think the sweet and outdated charms of Spookslot should’ve been maintained.
I still absolutely adore Efteling.
@@jarmoliebrand2005 Polka marina was a one of from vecoma and was closed because of the same reason BOB was closed nobody was willing to make spare parts at least for a reasable price. Contry to what Yoman says efteling doesn't have infinite recources. Thats why they refurbished/rebuild python they wanted to change the lay out to but that was stopped because of financial reasons.
Hey Marc, Joris en de draak translated is George and the dragon and is about saint George. The pirate like water coaster which had a way to long Dutch name is the flying Dutchman. This also explains the resemblance to pirates of the caribean.
I live in the netherlands and go to this park about ones in 2 years and its great
Vekoma didn't re do python apart from the trains it was done by a local company the name slips my mind
It's CSM, a Belgian steel company. But I think it's subcontracted. They have also build some coasters from Mack (Helix, Pulsar).
So the water coaster you didn't want to pronounce is called "de vliegende Hollander" which in english is "The flying Dutchman" its honestly my favorite ride next to "Joris en de draak" which in english is "Joris and the dragon" or Fire vs water. The flying Dutchman is based on a guy that plays into the times of the VOC that is really cool. Basically the guy screams "IK ZAL VAREN!" at the sudden part at the beginning which means "I SHALL DRIVE" (i think) which means that even though he's going through a hard storm but he has/wants to go to over seas. Which he does, but its dumb to go over seas because this sea has like these high waves and stuff which is very dangerous. (I think thats the storyline) Btw fun fact the dreamflight attraction had mostly real flowers and trees in the attraction!
It's more like "I SHALL SAIL!"
I've never seen droomvlucht not stall out during the ride, but I've also been deemed cursed by my friends lol
@@batfurs3001 lol
coming back to the story. it's actually about sailing during Easter, which was forbidden. he sailed out during a storm and during a moonless night, because besides being part of the VOC he is also a smuggler. he stated when he left that storm or no storm, Easter or no Easter, i will sail, even if it has to for eternity, i will sail. which cursed him to sail eternally
@@Anjuly. that is true! I honestly found that hard to explain tbh so i left it out. But its true
All this time, I have been calling racing coasters one credit…
Well, how you count coaster credits is subjective of course. but if you were to split the two tracks of a racing coaster apart and place them at opposite ends of the park, you tell me.. is it two credits?
@@CoasterDash probably. I just always think about it like this: if I rank the coasters at Cedar Point, I don’t separate the two sides of Gemini and I thus consider that one ride when saying I’ve been on it. I wouldn’t mind getting 10-20 extra credits by changing my rules though.
It's 2 credits for me as it's a different track. It can operate separately from each other. Unfortunately when you were there, there were some technical issues with the other side that urgently needed maintenance
I count it them as one because they are under one name, therefore identifying as the same experience
@@mistylsms3223 that’s the same way I think
Dutch is the second closest language to English (after Frisian, which is spoken by a small number of people in the most northerly part of the Netherlands).
I find you can occasionally understand phrases of Dutch even if English is your only language.
I ❤ your videos nearly as much as I ❤ Efteling. Is there another family B&M dive coaster anywhere else in the world? Or a dive coaster that is better themed?
I am going to the Efteling tomorrow and in sleep-ins thear
The roller coaster that you can hardly pronounce in English the flying Dutchman and I have been parking there and for me it is only an hour from where I live because I live in the Netherlands
Efteling is one premier coaster away from being a must do park. I really hope they get an intamin lsm launch or vekoma thrill coaster. It would really take the park to the next level.
The water acttraction wish you can't prenounce is the flying dutchmen so yes it is actually part of the pirates of the carrabean with davy jones
Great vlog! Captures the atmosphere well. Was Max & Moritz closed? You missed those coasters
U missed one of the best rides! (my oppinion,) U missed carnaval festival! But, U can see an onride online on youtube ;)
the review was amazing, i really go alot to the park too, its family tradition to go once every year after summer vacation, but are we not gonna talk about the map of greater netherlanda he used in the thumbnail
little fun fact: the fairy tale forest is based on the fairy tales from the brothers Grim. You will see many similarities with disney tales. This is because Walt Disney has based his ideas and fairy tales on the stories of the brothers Grim.
The water coaster at 11:00 is "de vliegende Hollander" or in English "the flying Dutchman"
I love the efteling, I used to come here about every month
The picture of the Netherlands you're using in the thumbnail is actually not just the Netherlands but the netherlands + the Belgian region of Flanders.
Because it is not only about the Netherlands but the Benelux.
@@steffanaarts-greven1352 He puts the picture of the country in every video thumbnail, and Netherlands + Flanders is not the Benelux.
Here are a view unofficial English translations of some attractions names:
Fairytale-forest,
DreamFlight,
George and the dragon,
The flying Dutchman,
Nederland gang
👇
What you might not have realized but some of the fairytales in the fairytale forest where made 60+ years apart. And the earliest ones are from 1952 and they still hold up. There is a reason why Walt went to the Netherlands to get inspiration.
That's an urban myth. Disney never visited Efteling. I think Efteling's Fairytale Forest hadn't even opened when he visited the studios doing the Dutch versions of the films. Efteling at that time was a sport and recreation park with a kids playground, no more. Disney apparently did visit Tivoli in Kopenhagen.
the python is actually the first roller coaster in the Netherlands
I live in the netherlands i can walk to the efetling Ive been going there since i was 5 im 8 now
Wait i'm confused RN, Villa Volta is not a dark ride, it's just a normal Vekoma Mad House (one of the best actually), it's a really common type of ride all over Europe, don't you have mad houses in the US?
(Phantasialand, Europa park, Gardaland, Walibi Holland, Walibi Belgium, Alton towers, Efteling etc all have one)
I thought it was mainly a European thing
We have very few in America and they’re always closed. this was a pleasant surprise!
Villa Volta is actually a prototype. The first madhouse in the world.
@@yoloswaggins9989 i know
@@yoloswaggins9989And it's pretty good! It doesn't translate well to video though as the forces you feel while sitting in it, are a major part of the illusion.
I wanted to ask you how are the lines for the parks you've been to in Europe? Are there front of the line systems or is it all just waiting in lines?
Everything is standby but most of the waits throughout the trip have been quite minimal. the busiest parks have been Efteling, Tripsdrill & Europa Park.
@Lloyd
Efteling can have long queues. But considering your question, I assume you’re not European and if you could do some sort of Europe trip in the off-season, the queues would be really manageable. If not, the some of the big rides (Python, Joris en de Draak, Baron 1898, Vliegende Hollander, Symbolica, Droomvlucht and [on summer days] Piraña) could easily have 60-90 minute queues.
A strategy I’ve used on busy days is to start with Villa Volta, Dreamflight, Carnaval Festival and Vogelrok. Most people will either ride Fata Morgana (since it’s next to the entrance), or go straight for the coasters in the Ruigrijk area (and maybe also Symbolica, that’s also easy to reach). You’ll be flying through those first four attractions. The other attractions near those four rarely have long queues/don’t have queues at all, such as the Fairy Tale Forest and Sirocco. After around three hours, most people have done all the coasters in Ruigrijk and head in your direction. From that point onwards you can go to Ruigrijk as well. The queues there won’t be shorter, but the queues for the rides you’ve just been on will be longer. You probably won’t regret using a strategy like this. But… there’s plenty of room for spontaneity and I only think this is really necessary if you visit just on one day that’s really busy.
@@evansoerland
They can shave bits of time of at the coasters… but in my experience that’s usually a five or ten minute difference (still worth it). But on Symbolica it often shaves off at least half the queue line. Single rider is ridiculous on that thing.
Come in june most parks are open then and the weather is ussually nice. The cues aren't really there either unless the locals have a school holiday. Well except Egteling an Europaprks they always have some cueing.
I once was in efteling in the winter and there were like no rows somi could keep sitting
this blog was made on my birthday! Really fun to see.
17:41 "there is an alien ass naked down there" 😂😂😂
Only an American could come up with that LOL
Greetings CoasterDash,
There was one particular roller coaster called Max and Moritz. I was quite confused when you didn’t mention it.
But maybe next time a review on the Max en Moritz?
Couldn’t fit this on our euro coaster tour, sadly
That’s a bummer. Efteling is my number 2 park on the continent
This place would be very very interesting after 15g of completely legal dutch magic sclerotia.
you forgot 2 credits, max & moritz
Funny you keep naming Disney rides. Disney looked at the Efteling for the level of theming (not even joking)
Nope. Just not true.
the translation of the water coaster's name is the flying dutchman
Hey Marc, it's Jorrit from JorRides (that guy that got in contact with you). This is my Efteling-channel/account. Absolutely awesome to see you loved my home park!
Joris en de Draak (water-side) was closed, due to issues with the wood, for quite a long time. At the moment of typing this message, they are giving some parts of the tracks, a hybrid make-over or already done it.
Awesome vlog BTW! Absolutely loved to see how Americans or other non-dutchmen see the Efteling 😄
If you come to the Efteling once again, I'd love to give a tour and go more in-depth on the history of the park and the rides.
You can be happy you where not there at the last thundersday of September, my school called Basisschool park 16 hoven from rotterdam existed then for ten years! So the whole school did go to de Efteling! 300 adults! 900 kids! 17 touring buses!
joris and the draak fire side is intenser then blue side edit DO NOT LOOK ABOVE U IN THE BARON QUEUE
The Efteling...
Loved it as a kid and its still my favourite themepark.ever..
None of the other parks I've been to came ever close to the theming and atmosphere of The Efteling..
Why weren’t you did go to Jokie en jet
I am Dutch l am love the Efteling
you don't go to Efteling for the thrill rides, you go for the complete experience: attractions, architecture and nature.
World of wonders Efteling
The themed trashcans at the Efteling work so well that on occasion you walk through the Fairytale forest and you see a shrub completely void of leaves because the kids ripped them off so they could feed it to the talking trashcan.
The water coaster is de vleigende holander or in English the flying dutchman. Btw. Ive always loved tje efeteling as a kid ive been couple times but i loved it even more as an adult might be caise alot more atractions have been added the last 15 years that werent there when i was 10
I live in the netherland and we visit this parc frequently. Our family is a long time fan. Thanks for the amazing video!👍
You missed one... max and morits
Thanks for a tour with you in the Efteling today. Not so much has changed in 30 to 35 year from my childhood on.
Want some fun dutch coasters? Go to Duinrell in the Dutch town of Wassenaar. You can take a shuttle bus from The Hague central station

The efteling is older dan disney
The rides are short, but it works and has its reasons why they are short. Too many people, so much to be seen and not that much space.
13:13 when you see your favorite youtuber
I live in the Netherlands
Have you never heard of a Mad House before that? Phantasialand also has one in the Chinese area, but you seemed to have skipped it (in your VLOG at least)
This is my home park
