    One of the best Cedar Fair parks to me. I think thrill seekers sometimes do themselves a disservice by getting “credits” for mediocre coasters instead of spending more time enjoying the amazing flat rides. The park does have a great lineup of B&M coasters.

    I haven't been here since 2000, when I was in high school (I know, aging myself there). I'm happy to see the park has improved since then, and there's more and better rides. I'll probably wait a few more years before going again, for when my son's old enough to experience some of the bigger rides. Thanks for the review!

    This park is absolutely insane for how big its collection is and how overall, the big Canada park is a Cedar Fair monster. But the collection could be better, definitely focusing more on quantity than quality and I think it should focus more on quality. They have 3 absolutely fantastic B&Ms but after that is one of the biggest drop offs ever, and almost every coasters here isn't actually a "good" coaster. Boomerang, Volare, SLC, bad woodies, this park needs some good modern stuff and a modern Mack launch would be fantastic.

    Excellent review! I was fortunate to go on some of the removed rides over the years such as Bayern's, Skyrider, and Jet Scream but I wholeheartedly admit that the experience smoothed out a lot when Cedar Fair took over and added the new coasters + crew processes. I don't have the details handy but some days the fast pass + is cheaper than others. Can pick a mild weekday and either chance it or get a fast pass + for a discounted rate.

    I like how they added Frontier Canada in 2019 because that was one of their original plans when they first built the park and they were slightly criticized foe an American owned park in Canada not having enough Canada represented within it. Maybe they should focus their detailed attention to the waterpark next and give a Canadian seaside theming of some sort like Newfoundland or Nova Scotia.

    Just wanted to chime in on the cheapest/best way to experience the whole park: the
    Cost of a season pass and two nights at a cheap hotel or Airbnb near the park can be comparable or less than two days of regular admission and Fastlane+, which gets you three whole days at the park, with in and out privileges to eat at the multiple interesting ethnic restaurants located within walking distance of the gate. You will spend more time in lines, but the park is big enough that's it's nice to be able to take it slow, at least at my age. I live an hour away on public transit so it's all advice for people who aren't me 🙂

    Canada’s Wonderland is my home park, as I like about an hour south of it. I’ve been going since I was a kid, and I loved this place. I do agree they need some more great coasters to add smoothen their lineup, but I do agree that the unique collection of flats doesn’t make it seem so bad. If their next coaster is what I think it is, then this park is gonna have a Top 5 like no other in North America. Like, an Arrow Suspended Coaster in a park’s Top 5? Absolutely unheard of.
    But yes, I do agree the crowds are obnoxious. I visited there last summer as an outing for my church program, and the big three had consistently hour-long lines. But the operations do make up for it - absolutely top notch.
    Honestly, I don’t think there’s any way to split up those crowds, though. Canada’s Wonderland is the biggest theme park in Canada… and the only really “good” one. Marineland looks like a ghost town, La Ronde is constantly getting trashed on, Galaxyland closed Mindbender, and Playland is just too far away. So… Canada’s Wonderland it is.
    I can only see the crowds dropping if Marineland gets bought out by a bigger corporation - because that thing is on the chopping block. I wouldn’t want to lose Dragon Mountain - that thing is a one-of-a-kind experience. And La Ronde isn’t going anywhere. Let’s say SeaWorld comes in and saves Marineland. It has so much land that can be used, so they could build absolutely wild coasters to finally give Canada’s Wonderland a run for its money.
    We’ve seen what SeaWorld can do. If they come in and transform this place onto the Busch Gardens of the north, this’ll make Niagara Falls an ever more worthy tourist destination than it already is, and would make a decent rival park to Canada’s Wonderland - which is about an hour and a half north of Marineland.
    That’s the only way I can see the crowds being dealt with - is if another park shows up and gives Canada’s Wonderland a bone to pick with. But I still love this place, and I get excited every time I go back there, but these are just my own thoughts.

    Canada's Wonderland is really a great Cedar Fair park. I first visited in 2009, and while I loved it back then, I've been enjoying it more and more as I kept visiting. Cedar Fair has really made the park very beautiful, given it some great rides (flat rides and roller coasters), and just ensured that it lives up to its full potential. I'm glad Cedar Fair bought this park, because if Paramount continued to operate this, this park would have been a complete mess and a half. Cedar Fair investing into Canada's Wonderland as they are is amazing, and I hope they continue to invest in really good rides moving forward. Roller coasters still isn't the strongest, but their three B&Ms make up for it, and their flat ride collection has to be the best in the world.
    Crowds is DEFINITELY AN ISSUE HERE. As someone who has Canada's Wonderland as their home park, I can definitely say that this park can get crowded very easily and is very popular. I mean in 2019, Canada's Wonderland got about 3.96 million visitors. That's more than the flagship park, Cedar Point, making Canada's Wonderland the most visited seasonal Cedar Fair park, and one of the most visited parks in North America overall, which is ridiculous. Their operations I can also say is very good. Their operations are at least between a minute or a minute and a half, and sometimes faster, but most of the time, they've kept it between this time frame, at least for more of their major rides. I've waited what looked like long lines, but really, the lines move very fast, especially for their B&Ms. I don't stand in one place very long, and sometimes, I move through half the line faster than what I expected.
    In terms of their other coasters, I don't like Flight Deck, but I ride it just to have fun for how terrible it is. Time Warp just plain sucks for me. Silver Streak is actually not that bad for me, but it definitely has a rattle, but I wouldn't say it bangs my head. Their wood coasters are very rough, but that's what makes them fun for me, although Wilde Beast got a lot more retracking in the recent years, so it isn't as rough as it used to be. Dragon Fyre is one of the better Arrow Dynamics custom loopers, and maybe it's because I am taller and don't bang my head, but those transitions can be a bit jarring. Vortex, top tier Arrow Dynamics suspended coasters, which I hope S&S and Canada's Wonderland can still maintain for a long time. The Bat, again because I am taller, I don't find it too rough, except for the fact that I black out too much on this ride. Backlot Stunt Coaster, great family launch coaster, and is much more forceful than you think, although you will slide around in the car, because the transitions are pretty abrupt, but I wouldn't say rough.
    There really is no other competition in terms of amusement parks, except for like Wet n' Wild Toronto and Marineland, but let's face it, Canada's Wonderland is so dominant, that I wouldn't even consider any of those parks major threats.

    before i go on, I must nerd out as of now, backlot is the only roller coaster in Canada with a launch
    and another fun fact, canadas wonderland contains over a quarter of all Canadian roller coasters
    I went to this park this year for the first time, without fast lane I got ten roller coasters and was on five different flat rides, the park had the atmosphere of a beautiful nature park, with a mix of thrill and a tiny bit of disney like charm, I cannot tell you how much I want to go back to this park, not just to ride the rest of the rides, but to redo the ones I loved, It was my favourite park before I went and going only solidified that

    I personal love the mighty spine buster. Sure it hurts but i disagree on it being lack luster, that coaster has suprising air time on the drop and alot of g force espeacially when you go in the tunnel.
    My favorite coaster is vortex. Kinda chicken to go on levianthan, yukon striker and bethon. For me its the insane drops. With yukon i dont like when they make you wait before you drop i still like to go on both yukon and leviathan. I have been on a drop tower before so i hope i can handle them.

    I’ve only been once, on US Memorial Day in 2018 and that was absolutely the right decision. I was able to ride every roller coaster and what I believe to be the only cycle of the day on sledge hammer. I was able to leave the park by 5:00 or so to make the 5+ hour drive home. Got multiple rides on the top three roller coasters at the time (leviathan, behemoth, and vortex) and rode pretty much every ‘unique’ flat ride. Highly recommend going on a US holiday during the school year.

  • @Paolo8772
    @Paolo8772 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Canada Wonderland is clearly the best amusement park in Canada, but it's not worth riding any coaster beyond their top seven, which include the 3 B&Ms; Vortex, Back Lot Stunt Coaster, Dragon Fyre and Wilde Beast. Canada Wonderland also has the world's best flat ride collection too, if you're into that kinda thing, but no flat ride at Canada Wonderland is as good as the Beast at Playland in Vancouver, which opened before it's clone in the U.S. (at least according to the last time I checked; by now there are likely even more than just one clone).
    I agree re the food: I did subway there too because it seemed to be the best option, despite the fact that there's a Subway directly east of the entrance to the park across the width of the parking lot with exactly the same food, but without a 100% markup. There's also a subway in the mall across the street from the hotel I stayed at which is the closest hotel to the park.
    I love Canada Wonderland, but for coasters overall I prefer Cedar Point, since my top 7 at Cedar Point are Steel Vengeance, Millennium Force, Gatekeeper, TTD (which doesn't count since it's defunct) Raptor, Maverick, Magnum XL-200; Rougarou
    The closest two parks I've visited (within the past 4.5 years) I can compare the quality of its best coasters to imo would have to be Six Flags Great Adventure, (assuming El Toro is operating, which it isn't, but it's not dead yet) which are El Toro; Nitro; Jersey Devil; Kingda Ka, Medusa; Green Lantern; Batman.
    The next closest park re quality of coasters I've visited (within the past 5 years) is SFMM where my favourite coasters are Twisted Colossus; X2; Riddler's revenge; Wonder Woman Flight of Courage (which I'll include because I've ridden it which I haven't but because it's at SFMM now and Ive also ridden Jersey Devil so I know what it's like); Tatsu; Viper; Full Throttle; Scream
    With these comparisons of each of the aforementioned parks's top seven coasters, it's clear that Canada Wonderland is outshone by Cedar Point; SFGA, as well as SFMM. However: Canada Wonderland beats all parks I've visited except Cedar Point for two best coasters in the park, imo, if not three. I concur that Canada Wonderland has a top heavy coaster selection and also that it's extremely crowded even during weekdays

    3 Yukon Striker My Overall 82 Coaster: One Of The Best Dive Coasters Second To Only Griffon This Coaster Does Have Vests Which I Absolutely Hate Easily The Worst Restraints On A Coaster For Me They Kill The Airtime And The Hurt I Couldn't Breathe But This.Layout Is By Far The Best Dive Coaster Layouts Every Inversion Is Whippy And The Sidewinder Has Good Hangtime
    2 Behemoth My Overall 68 Coaster: This Is One Of The Better B&M Hypers The Location Is Only Second To One Which Is Mako But The Airtime Is Better Then Mako I Got Weak Ejector On Every Hill You Might Say Oh If This Coaster Has Better Airtime Then Mako Why Does It Rank 42 Spots Lower Well It Has A Horrible Rattle And It Might Be The Roughest B&M Hyper
    1 Levithan My Overall 51 Coaster: No Coaster Here Is In My Top 50 But Its Borderline This Is The Worst B&M Giga Which Isn't Saying Much This Coaster Is Short But It Has Strong Floater On Every Hill And Every Turnaround Has Good Laterals It Also Might Be The Best Paced B&M I've Ridden Or Even Best Paced Coaster All Around

    Great advice all around! I had utilized most of those tips on my 2019 visit, which wasn't terribly busy. Rain when I arrived midday, and there were no lines at all. The rain got to be too brutal after awhile, so even I left early. 1st full day, I made sure to get all the credits done. 2nd full day, I bought fast lane, so that I could marathon the good ones and hop on the flat rides. On a June Wednesday, the price was only 65 Canadian, around $60 US after tax. Well worth it! I'm not surprised prices have gone up.

    Honestly I disagree with silver streak being a bad ride, I’ve ridden it about 7 times this season, and the only critiques I have was out of the staffs control as it kept breaking down during my mom and i’s night ride visit. We always go back row because it’s a bit more forceful. And I love mine buster especially at night it’s insanely fun but I wish it had stronger airtime. Back row of ghoster coaster I actually did get a pop of airtime, and even tho it’s a kiddie coaster it’s still fairly thrilling on the first drop

    You know I think mondial top scans are awesome I like how intense they are it's much better than the kiddie flat rides in the planet snoopy and kidsville section and in my opinion I think shockwave and sol spin from Knott's Berry farm are much better than electro spin from Carowinds and the Europe top scans

    Even though I've never actually been on the Europe top scans the reason why I think shockwave is the best is because It goes really fast so that makes it an intense ride and the hangtime you get on it is pretty cool especially since shockwave has the Mondial restraints to keep you in place

    Ok, the single riders line is almost always short, but they only put in about 1 person from the single riders lane per 3 carts. They only use it if there are empty spaces, usually very rare.
    Also, on time warp, once my feet slipped so I had to grab on for dear life as I can't reach the next steps and the forces stopped me from going back on that step.

    I think dragon fire is very fun it's not as rough as flight deck flight deck is very rough and yeah I know some of you think yukon striker should've replaced flight deck and time warp instead of skyrider but here are my reasons why I think Yukon striker replacing skyrider was a good decision one skyrider was much more rough than flight deck and time warp two it was a stand up roller coaster and stand up roller coasters are kinda uncomfortable and three they needed space to build Yukon striker and skyriders plot of land had lots of space

    I still enjoy visiting the park, however, I do not get as excited as I did when I was a teenager. I also get nostalgic and a little sad because two out of five of my favourite rides (my most favourite and beloved Jet Scream, and Skyrider) as well as Orbitor were removed.
