I visited the park beginning of July - it was my second visit. My first one was 1991 and I got to ride Sirocco before it became the enclosed Psyché Underground it is today (in between it was Turbine). That was 4 years before the accident (the train stopped at the top of the looping and passengers were stuck for more than 70 minutes) and the back spike was used back then. I still love it, but I agree that the brake-run station takes away a big part of the fun. I also agree that Loup-Garou is horrible and should get the RMC-treatment + Vampire is the roughest SLC I know. On the other hand, I laughed a lot in Popcorn Revenge and was positively surprised by Cobra: When you lean into it, there is only one rough spot + I love the g-forces during the backwards loop. Challenge of Tutankhamon was an awesome dark ride. Loved the flying bugs in there with the wind effects. That ride even offers different endings, depending on your score. Bummer that the weather kept you away from Radja River. Not as cool as River Quest at Phantasialand, but it offers way more action than the rafting at Europa-Park. Kondaa was a great ride in the morning, but in the sunny afternoon weather we had, it turned into an airtime-beast. Great coaster! BTW: The Daltons are criminals from the Lucky Luke comics. The name refers to the theming of their former drop tower and fits the wild west theme. As for the Six Flags influence you mentioned: I didn‘t feel that, as the atmosphere was still pretty close to what I experienced in the 90ies. But I‘ll have to admit that I‘ve only been to two SF parks (St. Louis in 1994 and Magic Mountain in 2009), so what do I know? 😉 Thanks for sharing your experience!
September is the best time to go ,warm ,less crowds ,im off to europa park and Rulantica next week so excited first time to both Been loving your vlogs ❤
it was a pretty bad summer this year. As for kondaa it gets better if its warmed up don't know if it ever does with that kind of weather. As for loup garrou youve done Untamed i would say defently RMC it.
Happy to see you enjoyed my homepark, but you skipped "raja river" (rappid) on such a beautifful day smh😂. I´m still waiting for the RMC treatement, but the general public just like to be shaken like a milshake😫
RE the weather, cant speak for the continent but weve had an unusually rainy summer here in the UK. It's been really abysmal. Today though its very sunny and 29C (84.2F) which is I would say typical summer weather. Last year we reached 42C (107.6) in the summer which was horrendous. 84.2 is bad enough when homes don't have air con
@cruiseandcoasters yeah we just suffer every year and indulge in the British sport of complaining about the weather 🤣 Sorry you got the worst of it though!
![Riding the Benelux’s TALLEST & FASTEST Roller Coaster?! Walibi Belgium - Wavre, BE | VLOG [8/7/24]](/img/n.gif)
The number of Robb Alvey style "weeee"s on the on ride footage is iconic.
😂 sometimes I don’t even notice I’m doing it until I watch the footage while editing 🫠
It's currently boiling and sunny when it should be cooling down, Summer arrived a few months late.
Stay cool out there!
That water ride was insane!!

Have the best time! I can’t wait to get back to Europa-Park. Thank you for watching 💚✨

It was a very wet 3 weeks 😂
The pronunciation you were looking for on the dark ride is too-tan-car-moon (tutankhamun), been loving these vlogs keep 'slaying' it
Thank you! That makes it much easier to say 😂 And thank you so much 💙✨
For some weird reason the worst two coasters are named after monsters and both build by Vekoma. They've come a long way.
Loup Garou was so bad 😂
Summers are quite wet in Europe these years. Because of climate change more water gets into the air by evaporation of the oceans

Haha - it looked beautiful but I don't think it ever got over 60 degrees and it was drizzling for a lot of it. Next time hopefully!!

It rained every single day of our trip 😂 I can’t imagine those temps without A/C! 🥵

Sorry you got the worst of it though!
