    Nette Überraschung! Tempo Spaß Zu kurz

    This was one of the biggest surprises when visting Efteling: Vogel Rok may not have that oustanding theming like the other rides of this park, but as a coaster, it is one of the most fun experiences here. It is more intense than you may expect, runs mostly very smooth, has a great capacity when running three trains and the icing on the top is the beautiful onboard soundtrack. There are some theming elements in the dark which could be better, but they are fine for what it is. The only downside of this ride is its relatively short length, which seems to be a common problem with the rollercoasters at this park. But nevertheless I highly recommend this underrated ride!

    Nette Überraschung! Tempo Spaß Kapazität

    This was actually the best Mack bobsleigh ride I have been on: It has a better and more fun layout than the prototype at Europa Park and runs less shaky than the version at Heide Park. This one starts pretty mild, but constantly builds up speed during the finale. The only downside is the capacity which is not great because there were only two trains running and most adults sit alone in one car (which I fully understand, you should only share these vehicles with someone you REALLY like, when sitting alone, you have plenty of room).

    Standort Dauer Rütteln Enttäuschend! Unangenehm

    This behemoth with its beautiful location near the sea and overall nice appearance may be iconic, but for me, the ride was disappointing. I did not expect huge amounts of airtime and knew it can rattle quite a bit, but it turned out to be one of the roughest coasters I have ever experienced - when sitting over the axis, I yelled out of pain several times. In the second row, it was still far away from smooth, but bearable. The airtime was, if even there, mostly weak - the only really intense moment was the first drop, the rest of the layout is fast-paced, but doesn't do a lot... At least, it has an epic soundtrack I really enjoy!

    I expected to hate this ride, but it was actually one of the better SLC I have been on: yeah, it hasn't got the vest restraints like Mayan or such a smooth ride as Kumali, but nevertheless, Infusion was bearable for the standard layout. The location over the water makes this coaster look better (but beware of the fountains, they can make your feet wet!) and the throughput was also pretty good compared to other SLC's.

    Kapazität Standort Sanftheit Dead spots Intensität

    Aside from the surprise in the dark (which everybody knows, I guess), the overall experience is rather tame: especially on the outdoort part in the beginning, the trimbrakes hit really hard and it feels like a mild family coaster which does not fit to the theming at all... A pleasant surprise was the last speedy section which was more intense than I tought albeit being really short. Besides from that, the ride from the final brake run into the station is taken surprisingly swiftly, it almost felt like a mini launch. The coaster rides glossy smooth and it has an eery vibe to it with its queueline and the location in the woods - but for being advertised as a ride for 16+, it wasn't that scary, I personally found the theming in Smiler or Wicker Man creepier than this. Capacity was decent, with three trains and luggage claim the line moved pretty quick.

    For me, the best ride at Alton Towers: theming is one-of-a-kind, at the first glance, it doesn't look too unsettling, but the closer you look and the further you get into the station building, the creepier it gets. The Marmaliser is optically very impressive and the soundtrack is just mental. On our visits, lines were pretty long (sometimes up to 120 minutes), I strongly recommend a fastpass or using the single rider line, the latter is pretty effective. Nevertheless, capacity is not a big issue, we had four trains running and dispatches were fairly quick. The ride experience was better than I expected, only a few times we had a minor rattle - but it would be better with lap bars for sure. The inversions are great fun, and the two decent airtime hills are a nice change from that - I did not percieve the ride getting repetitive which is quite outstanding with fourteen inversions. To sum things up, Smiler offers a great overall experience and I highly recommend being corrected by it!

    fun pour les petit, difficile de rentrer dans les "wagons cage" pour les grands. on y va pour le petit château de la belle et la bête, pas pour les sensation je trouve qu'il complète bien l'attraction "Le Pays des Contes de Fées". bref, très bien pour un moment détente

    pour un coaster qui se devait temporaire je le trouve plutôt réussi. De la file d'attente à la sortie la théma est présente dommage qu'il soit isolé au fond du parc.
