$20 Theme Park in India 🇮🇳
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2024
- I like to visit large amusement parks when I travel and I found that there was one reachable from Mumbai by train. Imagica is a theme park located halfway between Mumbai and Pune.
The train from Mumbai goes most of the way to Imagicaa and then it's just a cheap ride in an auto rickshaw from there. Well it's cheap if you bargain like a local. Thankfully I enjoy a bit of bargaining AND I brought a local so it was easy.
The ticket price for Imagica including all the tax and fees they add on to the base price is ₹1,532 INR (£16.24 GBP / $20.22 USD) and college kids get a 25% discount from that.
I wasn't expecting it to be the Indian version of Disneyland or Universal Studios but for just $20 I was expecting it to be value for money. For comparison, the small Disneyland in Hong Kong costs $80, so Imagica is 1/4 the price of that.
Imagicaa turned out to be very similar to Dunia Fantasi (Dufan) in Jakarta (you can see my vlog of that here: • $15 Theme Park in Jaka... ). Many of the rides seem, especially the main ones, seem to be near identical. I wonder if there's one big business that supplies the rides to different parks throughout Asia.
The Hot Wheels licensed ride 'Nitro' is the main thrill ride in the park so that's where we started. It's a very fast rollercoaster ride with a 850 meter track that reaches 40 meters high and has 360 degree loops.
Even for the main thrill ride we barely had to queue. We visited on a weekday so there was almost no queues on any of the rides. I've always made sure to schedule my theme park visits for days when kids are in school as that is what makes the difference between 5 minutes or 50 minutes wait to get on a ride.
The Dare 2 Drop ride is one of those towers that shoots up into the air. I knew what to expect from riding the same thing at Dufan in Jakarta where I was taken by surprise when I was blasted in the air. This time no shock but I still let out a scream just for fun.
The Wild West themed Gold Rush Express rollercoaster looked quite tame compared to Nitro judging by the lack of loops and the type of chair where you're only locked in by one metal bar. It hits a speed of 65 km/h, which doesn't sound that fast but as you're going around sharp bends and through tunnels it's a decent thrill.
The Haunted House is one where you don't walk through but sit in a ride. I thought was underwhelming with low technology anachronistic but they do have a couple of humans in there dressed as ghosts who jump out to provide some realism.
Their laser gun game Alibaba Aur Chalis Chorr, again I thought it was low technology. You are supposed to shoot things to earn a score but you actually have to hit some electronic sensors. I felt like many of my shots didn't register properly so it was a bit frustrating.
The Deep Space ride is an indoor rollercoaster inside a dome. It turned out to be exactly what I suspected it to be, a copy of Space Mountain from Disneyland. It's a decent immitation.
The slow cup and saucer ride was basically a kid's ride and not something I'd bother to ride but my friend was keen on it. The ride itself was boring but we were joined by a bunch of school kids who were more entertaining than the ride.
The reason for the group of schoolkids on a weekday is that once per year each class gets to go on what they call a picnic. It's a day out to reward them, or maybe something that their teachers can take from them if they are bad in school. "Better behave or you're not going to the picnic" - that kind of thing.
The last fun ride we went on was the Rajasaurus River Adventure. It's a slow ride through an indoor river with dinosaurs. Again it's very low technology anachronistic. Towards the end of the ride the track inclines steeply so you know what to expect. A sharp decline with a big splash and that's exactly what we got - soaked!
All in all I'd say Imagicca is worth the $20 for a fun day out, on a weekday at least. Those rides were fun enough when you could just jump right on them but they definitely wouldn't be worth waiting an hour for each.

The way he bargained for the fare, you know he's an Indian at heart.
That’s just what us Scottish are like, love a bargain 😆
@@JL-el7ju wow.. That's so good we Indians also love to bargain
It's not being an Indian at heart! It's about intelligence and the art of bargaining. Everyone should have it.
The driver just moved a little bit ahead very slowly and then stopped the vehicle in order to get Dale's money ;-)

Problems with the girls family hence the blurred. U can tell the veteran subscribers 😂
Respect the girls privacy ! Maybe she doesn’t want to appear on camera !
Even in the kids camera you blurred the girl 😂
U have got it
What's the point of blurring for the whole video only to fuck it up at that part...
I wouldn't want my face to be blurred travelling with a person like you XD You're the best mate.
Privacy differs from person to person

Typical assumptions xD
Why you calling since teachers?
after finding some more videos i am now certain i have watched every video. Thank you for the good times Dale you are a true gentlemen and a scholar. if i ever bump into you i'll buy you some food to say thank you.
You just earned my big respect, and I haven't even reached the Imagica portion of your video. If you can bargain with anyone in my country, you are a true traveller. Hats off!

Hot wheels looks like an underrated floorless coaster, actually a very good quality park
21:28 world record for the no. Of selfies taken at one time 😂😂😂😂
They are my school friends
Hey Dale! Love your videos! To be honest, this isn't in the middle of nowhere actually. There are few hill stations nearby - Matheran, Lonavala and Lavassa. The mountains you see enroute Mumbai Pune are called the Western Ghats (A biodiversity hotspot and UNESCO World Heritage site. It stretches from Gujarat right uptil Kerala) There are tonnes of trekking options there. Especially during the monsoon season (which is right now) you have lush greenery, mist, fog, waterfalls. Unlike your trekking episodes in Kerala, there are close to 300-400 forts which although in ruins since the British conquest in 1818 offer a splendid view and something else to look for apart from the valley.. A lot of these are accessible by the good old Mumbai local. It is part of a culture here in Mumbai Pune to have trekking groups climb them. The history of most of these forts is pretty interesting too and most of them were built during the rule of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. :)
Do check out the following forts:
Kalavantin Durg
Harihar
Rajgad (ahead of Pune) - Check pictures of Sanjeevani Machi
Torna
Naneghat
Checkout videos from this guy for everything about Sahyadri Mountains of Maharashtra.

I am sure you would love being here next time around!
Me pan more
Actually for the Cup and Saucer thing to rotate you need to move the disk in the center. Requires some strength initially but once you gain momentum , it can be really fast.
Those are fun when you spin them fast but no one spun the cups, wonder why not?
@@eurofritz4617 lack of instructions. Lazy operators
You mean we manually have to move the disc by ourselves or the operators have to move it?
@@thewolverine7516 you have to. The circle in the middle of the cup you turn clock wise...
@@ashleyznoyl6346 yes
I also did in Kolkata
Nico park
i remember that the space ride was my first ever roller coaster, we jumped the railings like that too, it was fun
I lost it when the school kid called yiu chikna and covered up by saying you're so handsome 🤣
oh i believed the kids. so it doesn't mean handsome then? :P
@@ndorje nope!
Chikna means handsome you noob
@@_sachinbhalerao theek hai chikne!
@@ndorje chikna means smooth face that is without much facial hair
Dude, I can feel your pain while editing.
Pretty impressive theme park for $20. Like a combination of Disney, Universal and Six flags!
Not even close lol
@@joelavila4495 🤣🤣🤣👍🏼
Control brother this is good but not like Disney land
more like a six flags lol. Disney and Universal blow it out of the water. still though for a fraction of the price you get a six flags experience. They probably make money on sheer volume, bet its full everyday
Hell of a value, yes it is not on par with Universal and Disney but they charge 120-180 instead of 20 soooo
Hey dale!! I was just randomly browsing videos and just found your vloging video in mumbai. I loved your videos and i enjoyed the way you interacted with our people. From having lassi to gola (not cola). Your video is a little funny too. Bargaining with the rickshaw wala? More like an indian, really funny. Just loved your video and wanted to share my thoughts. Keep visiting our country😊

i visited imagica in 2013 with express pass, it was a very fun experience, bring back too many memories, this video is very nostalgic for me

Seeing Dale taking selfie pictures with kids reminded me when I was in this big mall in Surabaya, Indonesia and most of the school kids asked me for a picture.
Yes actually
Here people ask for selfies when I was in school trip I was also asking for selfies 😂
With foreigners
11:54 : it's not C-O-L-A / coca-cola 😄
It's G-O-L-A 😇❤️
That cup ride and that dare drop was an influencer moment 😂

Hey girl you represent India a very good way keep it up the sprit , god may bless such a honest person like you....
Hey Dale, I really enjoyed this fun vid the first time round and was sad to see it go. I’m so glad you re-uploaded it.

@random nahh becuase your ancestors were convict
I'm not sure since not a single person did it but every tea pot ride I've been on you can spin it by grabbing that drum in the middle and spinning yourself around that
Just enjoyed the video, bring smiles. Gr8 video mate

I really love watching your vlogs mate........ Thanks for making my lockdown less boring.... Keep up the good work
They actually mix gram flour with water to make a paste add spices in it and then dip fried potato in that paste then deep fry it
The cup and saucer segment was just pure gold
Yay ! You have re -uploaded it! Absolutely love your Mumbai videos! Thanks Dale ... again great job on the editing. ☺️☺️

Just need a compilation video of Dale doing a variety of vertical drop rides at theme parks around the world. “Yeah will be fine won’t scream”.........ride starts “arghhsjsksjgsjshskk” reaction to the one in Indonesia cracks me up every time 😂
It was funny how everyone was saying 'subscribe' while the guy sitting next to Dale looked like he was being taken to a slaughter house! 😆
i have been there man, ah the nostalgia.
I haven't been traveling since that though so it hits even hard
Nice video ❤️ that girl is really good at guiding and bargaining lol
This girl is mysterious
Dude I feel as far as Chennai is concerned you have not explored the best side of it or perhaps you have not captured the best side of it! But you have a great spirit. Love your videos!! Keep up the good Work!!
Terrific!!! Nice to see ur all vlogs

Whenever they see foreigners the fare skyrockets....
Who's the lovely lady who helped you out so much..? Salute to her who gave you a taste of Indian sentiment of 'atithi devo bhava'.

dear Dale, glad you didnt drink lassi before that hotwheels ride. 🤣
That would have been a disaster.
