No wonder this park won so many awards, also one for best theme park in the world!!!
It really is a special one that has to be visited 😊 thank you for watching x
What I love the most about efteling is the fact that people with a disability can enjoy the day as well. Almost every attraction has a special entrence for them and Max&moritz has a elevator😊 I have autism and it helped me a lot to avoid the bizzy queues and having just a good day🥰
Me too.
I have a prothetic and cant take steps alot.
Whith the card i can use the easier entrance.
An elevator is also at Baron's.
At Symbolica we can only use the green ride (musictour).
I really enjoy, beeing able to ride All the darkrides and Coasters.
September we are again in Efteling Bosryik for 3 Days. Counting the days...
Thank you so much for sharing this. It will be helpful to others. So happy to hear that it’s accessible for everyone. ❤️ thank you for watching 😊 x
i have autism too and in the past i have used the disabled queue as well. more recently i have been able to handle the regular queue better than in the past so i no longer need it though. i do worry about the recent controversy about people abusing the disabled queue and what it means for autistic people in the future who dont have a visible or even physical disability but still need it...
@@MinerBat
Yeah, I’ve got AuDHD (autism & ADHD) and I never used the disabled queue because my parents always told me those are for people with physical injuries only, like people who need crutches or wheelchairs to move around.
I actually didn’t know they were for people with autism and ADHD as well until about a year or so ago.
Though I feel it’s somehow still wrong for me to use them because people can’t see my neurodivergent brain and I would feel judged for it, like as if I’m skipping the line illegally.
Edit: I am always beat at the end of the day though. Last time I visited a theme park with my BFF (a small one at that) I slept multiple times on the drive home. I periodically had to wake up to check my GPS, nasty thing sometimes doesn’t talk until the last possible moment.
I am on ADHD meds now, and so far they’re really great! Though they do give me a bit of a headache and can make me more tired, which isn’t great to get in a theme park of course.
Also it’s kinda ironic that meds that should make you more alert and happy, have the side effect of making you tired, unable to fall asleep quickly and even (in some cases) depressed.
Edit 2: One more thing I wanted to add is that sometimes long queues are mentally too noisy and therefore rage or tear inducing for me. Could I still get one of those facility cards they provide for people with AuDHD, while also just joining the normal queue if I’m feeling well?
@@Sweetie.21 yes you can. no one is checking the normal queue whether or not you have a facility card
Every time I walk towards that fantastic "House of 5 sences" I feel younger with every step I take. When I enter the park I'm a child again 😅
100%! It brings out such joy. Thank you for watching 😊 x
I have loved watching these vlogs! I went to de efteling with my family in 1998. I was 9 at the time. I still remember the dream flight ride. And most of the fairytale characters. I remember going on the snail ride with my dad from the last vlog he didnt like it as he doesn't like heights! I have been smiling the whole time. Cannot wait to go back. It looks as though you had lots of fun!
Thank you so much for your comment and for watching. 😂😂 that monorail was quite high. Power to him for getting through it. 🙌 That’s so lovely of you to say. We’re glad you’ve enjoyed the vlogs. X
Im so sad it’s already the last video! I loved seeing you guys exploring our Dutch pride 😂 its such a magical and beautiful park! So happy you guys loved it!
We’re so sad it’s the last one too! We will be back 😊❤️ xx
I watched all your Efteling vlogs and you guys seem like such genuine, nice people! As a Dutchy it's lovely to see how exited you guys get about the park, a bit like children! It's so fun the see adults get completely immersed in the full experience Efteling has to offer! :) Very nice vlogs and great to see you enjoyed my favorite themepark as much as I do every time I visit! :D
Thank you so much for watching 😊 It was such a wonderful experience. The park was everything and more! We were blown away by the rides, shows, theming, food and atmosphere. X
@@sohelenaandmartyn Great to hear!! I love watching vlogs of people from other countries experiencing this park for the first time! And yours were so enjoyable because you were so excited and happy all the time! :D
Villa volta is my favorite ride in efteling, so many childhood memories and als the music is absolutely amazing.
Such a trippy ride with not knowing if you or the room is spinning. The music was fantastic. Thank you for watching 😊 x
@@sohelenaandmartyn as a kid who was not allowed on roller-coasters just yet, this felt like the real thing😅
I really appreciate all your vlogs at Efteling !
This Park is so huge ! So many things to see !
One of my Best Park in Europe !
Thanks a lot for sharing with us your 1st time ! Lot of love❤ ❤❤
We appreciate you watching them all 😊 that means so much to us. Thank you for tuning in ❤️ x
Well after watching your vlogs that you been recently in 2024 and this one (as wanted to see in summer) it's going to be a definite yes! I'm so glad I have seen this video x
Would definitely recommend. Such a fantastic park. Thank you so much for watching 😊 xx
@@sohelenaandmartyn I can see that you both are very impressed and delighted. You are welcome you both are a joy to watch and love how you set out your videos so we are well informed as well as enjoying it with you (skipped the ride walk through so I got the sped up overview) x
We've absolutely loved this series. We haven't got a record player so didn't get the vinyl - but we did Stream Efteling playlists all the way home 😁 So has this opened your eyes to some other European parks for the future?
Yes! The Spotify playlist is great too as the songs are a bit longer. 100%! We’d love to visit a few more in the future 😊 thank you for watching x
This has been such an amazing trip to follow. It looks like you have had an incredible time and Efteling looks such a stunning park ❤
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch 😊 x
Loved these vlogs❤ gonna miss them. And just as Martyn said, us dutchies do feel proud about the Efteling🥰 Glad you guys liked your stay🫶
Thank you so much for watching and your kind comment ❤️ we miss it too! We’ll definitely have to return at some point. X
As an new (Dutch) subscriber, I absolutely loved seeing you guys enjoy the park! It made me miss Efteling & wanna go back real soon! Also, can’t wait to catch up on your other vlogs!
We’re so happy that you found us. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. 😊 We hope you enjoy the other vlogs x
Villa volta is my favorite ride. Not just the ride but mainly the reactions of the people who are there for the first time. 😅
Yes! It really is a mad house. I can never figure out those styles of rides. The music was fantastic too. 😊 thank you for watching x
Thanks again for taking me with you to Efteling! Looks like you two had an awesome time! I must get back to Holland one of these day just to visit the park.
Thank you so much for joining us 😊 it means a lot to us. We had a fantastic time. A trip to remember. X
My english isn't so well, but i try:
When you stay for the Night in Bosryik, you are allowed to take one "Schlafmützen" (Sleeping Hat?) for every Person, that is there.
You can also take the "Märchenbuch" (Book of Fairytales?) That is on the (?? Shelves??) Regal.
If it is the wrong languege (?? Sprache??), you can go to the Reception and get one of your Speech.
Theese are lovely Souvenirs, i think.
We are in Bosryik in September again. 8 People ( 6 Adults and 2 Children. We celebrate the Birthday from a Kid there.
We always take a House.
Your English is fine 😊
@@xZOMBIECORNx thank you ☺
You did fantastic! We didn’t realise about the hat and the book. That’s so good to know. You’ll really help a lot of people in planning with this comment. 😊 we hope you have an amazing time. It’s great that so many of you can go as a group. What memories you’ll make. Thank you for watching x
@@sohelenaandmartyn it will be a memory visit. We had my Father with us a year ago and He sat in a wheelchair. And was so happy, that he could do all the rides. He wanted to celebrate his birthday with the Family, but died Nov 2022. So we are doing this to his Memory. Will be fun and sadness too.
We have two children with us, one of them has her Birthday at the first Day.
We ordered to decorated the livingroom of the house an bring a Birthday cake.
Thats awsome. 50€ and it's All done.
You can order this only for the first Day, because the housekeepers are not allowed to go in the houses, as long as they are .... with Guests.
So if you have your Birthday in the time, maybe this will be a surprise for someone?
Please excuse, if my Englisch isn't the best; ist more than 40 years since i learned at school

We love Efteling, we went back for the third time last week and checked out the pancake place based entirely on your recommendation from this video. I cannot recommend Efteling more highly to anyone.
It is such an amazing place isn’t it? We’re so pleased you had a fantastic time. We are looking forward to more trips in the future hopefully. Thank you for watching 😀 xx
Always love seeing my favorite place in our country seen trough new eyes
Thank you so much for watching 😊 we loved it! Made a fantastic impression on us. X
I also like moritz more, because it goes a little bit faster. Amazing the fun you had.
Thank you so much for watching! We loved Max and Moritz. All the rides were great but that was so much fun. 😊 x
I loved watching your Efteling vlogs! Thanks for taking us with you 😊
Thank you so much for joining us 😊❤️ x
What a fun trip, thankyou for showing us all of Eftelings beauty ❤
Thank you for watching 😊 It was a wonderful experience. We’re glad you enjoy. X
Amazing series, thanks for showing us around the park.
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch 😊❤️ x
Loved loved this series 😊
Yay! Thank you 😊
Absolutely loved these past vlogs of this beautiful park. I myself love this park so much and actually worked there aswell. Its such a magical experience everytime you come here even if you grew up in the park. Loved watching all your reactions and i would love to see you guys back at this park. lots of love from the netherlands
It was pure joy making them. The park was incredible. All the staff were marvellous. We would love to return in the future. Thank you so much for watching ❤️ x
if you look just left of python from the pagode, in good weather, you can see the churchtower from my town.
Nice to see you've enjoyed Efteling!
No way! That’s incredible. Definitely some good views as you go up the lift hill. 😊 thank you for watching x
Glad you enjoyed! Come back next year!!🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for watching, we would definitely love to return ❤️ x
I love Efteling, one of my favourite places in world. But I find the best way the from UK is Via Harwich to Hoek Van Holland on Stena Line. Travel overnight in the best cabins on a ferry and you almost there with a lot less driving ! Love the breakfast on Stena Line !
Ah cool! We hadn’t heard of this option before. Nice to know there are different ways for people to travel there. Thank you for watching 😊 x
Loved watching your whole Efteling vlog series. I’ve always wanted to go and now after watching your vlog series it makes me want to visit even more. It looks like suck a beautiful park x
Would definitely recommend visiting when you get the opportunity. It was a magical park. ❤️ thank you for watching x
Hi Helena & Martyn, loved your Efteling vlogs! You guys are wonderful and your videos are entertaining en very well put together. I'm happy you liked your stay at Bosrijk and hopefully you will return one day to our Dutch pride and glory The Efteling. For sure I will follow you guys on you tube and see more of your adventures. All the best from a big Efteling fan 😊
Thank you so much for watching and for this kind comment 😊 We loved the hotel and park so much. It was the best first trip to Efteling. We will definitely be returning at some point in the future. X
thanks for the series pick up a lot tips for going
Thank you so much for watching 😊 Glad it helped a little x
I’ve watched all these vlogs and now I am definitely 💯 going to be booking a trip to Efteling! Thank you, really enjoyed this series. I was interested before but these vlogs were so detailed, the park just looks amazing. The food looks great as well! I’m thinking I will wait until that new hotel opens and book there, as it must be loo lovely actually staying inside the park! Thanks again guys ❤😊
The new hotel inside the park sounds like it’s going to majestic. Being in a hotel inside the park will be so cool. The food was amazing. We couldn’t get in all the snacks we wanted as we were full 😂 thank you so much for watching 😊 x
Thanks for the wonderfull vlogs on our park de Efteling. I am one of those proud people, and I also feel very lucky to live so close by, a 10 minute busride from it. Once the heatwave is over I will go again, since I have a subscription to the park. I hope you will come again soon. Glad to see you loved it as much as we do. The Flying Dutchman and Droomvlucht are also 2 of my favorites, along with the ship and de Baron.
Ten minutes away from a glorious park. Now that is a dream. It has been so hot! We would love to return to Efteling. We’ve realised we missed out a few things so another trip will have to be had. 😂 thank you for watching x
Cool jumper :-) and very fun video. Thank you for making this.
Thank you so much for watching 😊 x
29:31 The line on that mug says "every day is a celebration"
Ah fantastic! 😊 It sure is too! Thank you so much for watching ❤️ x
Thanks for this vlog.. it was an amazing journey.
Glad you enjoyed it!😊
Thank you. You two have made great vlogs with a lot of positive energy.
Enjoy Brugge.
Thank you so much for watching ❤️ x
@@sohelenaandmartyn Always happy to pay an extra visit to Efteling :o).
You have to come back once dans macabre opens up! It's going to be such a cool attraction!
It sounds so exciting! Going to keep up with the build. Would love to return to try that ride. 😊 thank you for watching x
Nice to see that you rode Villa Volta. Fun fact: this mad house was the first of its kind. It was actually the prototype of this ride by ride builder Vekoma. Nowadays, you can find these rides everywhere, in Blackpool ao
By the Way: the Piranha was also the first of its kind. It was designed together with Intamin (the Swiss ride builder). However, an American theme park wanted the world premiere and paid good money for that, so Intamin and Efteling decided to give them the honours of being first and did not open Piranha until the Americans had opened.
Wow! That’s amazing to hear. It sure sounds like it’s been a very influential park. 🙌 thank you for the background. I love hearing about this sort of stuff. Thank you for watching 😊 x
Wow.. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for watching 😊 x
Oh i love your vlogs so much maybe you could come back when Danse Macabre and the grand hotel are finished or you could go to other dutch themeparks like Toverland and Walibi❤
Thank you for the park recommendations. We’d love to try and visit a few more. Danae Macabre looks like it’s going to be a great attraction. We hope we can get back for it. 😊 thank you for watching x
In Villa Volta next to the animatronics is a canvas of a man.
That man was Ton van de Ven , the designer of Villa Volta, Dreamflight, Fata Moorgana, and many other atractions
We have loved learning so much from the comments. What a piece of trivia this is. To immortalise that man in the ride is just a beautiful tribute. Thank you for watching x
Fun videos. I watched them all.
Efteling is great. A different world.
And great marketing by Efteling to invite you, because you are fun people that made a very good review.
It was an amazing experience and we were very thankful for the opportunity to show off this wonderful park. Thank you for watching 😊 x
Enjoyed your vlogs and at the end you sound like a copy of my wife and I, her favourite is Droomvlucht and mine is De Vliegende Hollander :-)) Well done and thumbs up!
Two amazing rides! Helena adored Droomvlucht. She found it calming, magical and emotional. Vliegende Hollander is unlike anything I’ve ever been on. The suspense that they created was fantastic. Thank you for watching 😊 x
Loved your Efteling Vlogs, you gotta do Europa Park next.
Thank you for watching 😊 We’d love to do Europa! Definitely gone on our list of destinations x
Loved your vlogs! Liked and subscribed! 😁
Yay! Thank you!😊
Villa Volta is my favorite ride :D
It’s a popular one we have found. Its a fun ride with a great soundtrack 😊 x
Stroopwaffles are lovely if you sit them on the top of a mug or cup of coffee then the heat makes them lovely and chewy!!
Now this is a top tip that we will be using the next time we visit. That’s genius! Thank you for watching 😊 x
@@sohelenaandmartyn Do you have a PO Box?
@@mngale61 hiya 😊 yes we do. I believe you’ll find it in the about section on the RUclips channel x
Hi 👋 I wonder what dates you visited? I've absolutely loved watching these vlogs. I've been watching your disneyland paris ones as we have a trip booked for February.
Looked in to efteling and then when I saw you'd been was so happy to see inside the park and get your perspective. Been great
I believe we were there from the 22nd till the 25th May if memory serves correctly. We loved the park and would highly recommend. Thank you for watching and for all your support 😊 x
The Fabula film is actually produced by Aardman in the UK :)
No way!! I love Aardman. That’s why I loved the animation so much 😊 It was fantastic x
I dont know if someone said this already but the 4d movie was maid by aardman. The company behind the Wallace and gromit movies.
Amazing! No wonder it’s of such good quality. We loved it! Thank you for watching x
My favorite is Moritz 😁
Yay! Same as us! 😊
Love your vlog. I am gonna follow you on RUclips
Thank you so much ❤️😊 x
Pyranha People can put their hand in so you get sprayed in water....it is on the path. I am going again in August this year
It looked like you got drenched with water 😂 I think we needed to do it at the end of the day before doing back to the hotel. Have an amazing time. Thank you for watching x
You still missed quite a few must see fairytales! :)) like: " meisje met de zwavelstokjes", "cinderella", "tafeltje dekje ezeltje strekje", "snow white", "de zes zwanen", "the dragon", " the flying fakir" (which is ICONIC), "Sleeping beauty" and "Vrouw Holle" there are more but with the ones you saw, these are a must :).
The septer of Pardoes you saw at the shop, you can go around the park with and activite "secret/extra" featers (like for exaple open the treasure chest, light up water fountains etc. (Also one in the museum).The septer lights up as you walk/are near such a feater ;) . I also missed a few other attractions, but as you said, al the more reason to come again! Thank you both sooooo much for this vlog series, I absolutely enjoyed it! Thank you!!!💖
I was also impressed by al the easy technology the Efteling has (like the ordering, games, online map etc.) and the "Bosrijk" part, never saw it (also not in a vlog) it looked STUNNING, really liked the fact that you showed that each attraction has a story behind it and where you can find it, LOVED your enthusiasm! Now I want to visit too soo bad. Once again, thank you very much for these video's!!! ❤
Thank you for all the info here. We realised the other day that we missed a few of the fairytales. Think it would have been best if we’d started with sleeping beauties castle. A few of them were being restored too. Definitely a reason to come back. You are so kind. We loved visiting and making this series. It is one of our favourite parks ever! Thank you for watching 😊 x
I think you can do villa volta next time you are there because if you can do coasters i think you can do volta. But some of my family members who do coasters get sick in volta. So it really depends. But the good thing about that attraction and efteling is general is the service. There is a vid of someone getting ill in voIta and the staff really handled it well. It is one of my favorite attractions there and i just relax,sit back and watch the other people while enjoying the music.🤣 Thanks for the vlogs, maybe i can enjoy the winterseries as well *hint hint* Oh and if you come back for winter efteling lose a couple of pounds first because you know: THE FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD.
I always second guess myself. I’ve done similar versions of the ride but just never know if it’s going to be more intense. I don’t ever want a repeat of how I felt once going on a swinging ship 😂 the staff were all fantastic we found 😊 ooooh we would love to return for winter. Thank you for watching x
I thinking about going to efteling next year. How many days will you need for this Park?
Rly nice vlog is my first from you two but I guess not the last
Hiya 😊 oooh amazing! Would highly recommend. Would probably say 2 day’s minimum. 3 if you can. Thank you for watching x
So disappointed you did not do the Pirana ;-). My favorite in the Efteling, especially on a warm day. But of course Droomvlucht is the best!!!
Ah no! Sorry about that. We just couldn’t face the water 😂😂 thank you so much for watching 😊 x
So much fun! For next time, do try the poffertje (Dutch mini pancakes), opposite the stoomcarrousel! And we always take some Asian food by the Pagide onto the Hondoletta boat ride for lunch. I gues you did all the rides except the bike trains. That one is for little kids, but sometimes they will let you on them for a vlog, it is beautiful.
Ooo thanks for the tips! We will definitely be back, we loved it so much 😊 Yep we managed all the rides except the one for kids and also Baron as it was closed. Hopefully we can get on that on our next visit! X
@@sohelenaandmartyndid you do the Swan boats? Its a mini ride hidden away in a corner of the fairy tale forest. Also on the back of Polles Kitchen there is a donut shop which makes freshly baked mini donuts. Its a big recommendation for a snack especially with cinnamon sugar topping. Food is often in theme with the rides. At the piranha they serve nachos and fruit for example. At fata morgana they do kebab. Maybe for next time 😊
What camera you use ??
Sony zv1 😊
Did you miss Fata Morgana?
Hiya 😊 if you check out our first vlog from the trip we ride it. Thank you for watching x
She's just the personification of 'cute'.
Sorry Marty, forgot about ya there, but you're a nice bloke of course.
Thank you for watching 😊 x
22.23 Hiding for what/who?
Hiding from the water on piranha 🙈🤣
No Poffertjes, makes me a very sad Dutchy
You just gave us a reason to come back. 😊 thank you so much for watching x
I went on Max and Moritz for the first time 2 weeks ago and Max is way better I think. Moritz is a bit plain in my eyes. Most people like Max the most I hear.
Yeah i like Max better too
Love the different opinions. Now you’ve got us thinking we need to try Max again. Another reason to go back. 😂 Thank you so much for watching x
