Some great sustained floater airtime as well as a helix where you'll most likely grey out. And great theming. Only downside is how short it is and a bit of B&M rattle.

All the drops give a similiar airtime feeling like an ART Wild Swing, which is quite fun. But the rest of the layout is too short and doesn't do anything. The theming/music in the queue is cute, but it's missing on the coaster itself. And it has an absolutely horrible capacity, do not ignore the signs that warn you that an only ~15 meter long queue will take ~30 minutes. It really is that slow. Luckily, the GP doesn't really like this ride, so there are randomly times during the day when the queue is very short instead of way too long.

It's more of an observation ride with some very, very mild forces and speed. A bit of fun nonetheless. The capacity is bad, but not quite as terrible ...

It's more of an observation ride with some very, very mild forces and speed. A bit of fun nonetheless. The capacity is bad, but not quite as terrible as the capacity of Bob Kart and Wilde Hilde.

I didn't expect anything and was positively surprised by the first drop and airtime hill which can give some nice forces in the last row. Nothing actually intense, nothing special, but better than expected for a kids park. The rest is sadly trimmed way too hard to give any forces outside of some decently strong positive G's. Also, even though this is clearly the best coaster in this park, it has the shortest lines due to the much higher capacity (1 train with 16 people) than the other coasters.

Not as good as Maximus' Blitz Bahn @ Toverland. It's not themed and the start / acceleration is much weaker. And the capacity is awful, it probably is...

Not as good as Maximus' Blitz Bahn @ Toverland. It's not themed and the start / acceleration is much weaker. And the capacity is awful, it probably is the attraction with the on average longest wait time in this park (especially now that Wilde Hilde gets removed which has an even worse capacity, but isn't nearly as popular with the GP).

The complete package. Incredible theming, an unbelievable experience of actually flying through a steampunkt world, really smooth and comfortable (don't have your restraints be too loose), some strong positive G's and a bunch of nice floater airtime, and pretty long. Just don't make the mistake of underestimating how long the 1. row queue takes, after the lockers there's often another queue for the first row, overall when the normal queue is e.g. 15 minutes, the first row will often take longer than an hour.

I made the mistake of letting the internet overhype this ride for me, so after riding it the first time I felt dissapointed even though it objectively is a really good roller coaster. I rode it around 18 times total (mostly without leaving the station) and always after a few rides I was feeling so dizzy and sick that I had to leave the area. And it sadly sometimes has the same headache inducing rattle as Voltron. Also, it has a couple of violent ejector airtime moments, especially the last 2 bunny hills, that I know others really enjoy but I personally just don't really like that force on a coaster. And for some reason I personally just don't feel fully safe in the new mack seats during hang time, I don't have this with any other type of seat, but with the way these (objectively extremely well made) mack seats and lap bar are shaped my brain somehow often feels like I will fall out during the many inversions on this coaster. And the theming and music is nice, but sadly didn't feel nearly as good as I hoped when I was actually there. So all in all, the dizzyness, the violent ejectors, the being overhyped, the slight fear of falling out, the bit uncomfort due to the rattle and the fact that during my second-to-last ride I actually felt like I had to throw up makes this sadly only a 4.5/5 coaster for me.

It's a well themed and smooth coaster that is really well closely interwoven with the greatly themed surrounding land. It can be very intense depending on the row and temperature, and the inversions are always fun. Its only downsides are that it's a bit too short and that the second half is not nearly as exciting as the first half, but still good.

I've heard again and again from others that they still rate this coaster extremely high, but I personally just don't see it. I really dislike everything surrounding the ride: The ride ops are incredibly bored and insanely slow, it feels like 7 minutes between every single dispatch. Instead of using the second train the park just cheaps out and exclusively uses 1 train. During the ride itself, the combination of seat belt and lap bar just hurts a bit, it's not comfortable. And the theming is not just non-existent, it's actually actively bad because the ride is sponsored by a dumb radio station and a recording of one of their annoying radio jockeys talking nonsense is played on every single dispatch. And the exit is literally an ugly construction container stuffed with cheap scammy "insert 2€ to almost but not actually get the stuffed animal" gambling machines. So the overall feeling surrounding this ride is just depressing, being near this ride just feels sad and cheap. And the ride itself is also imho not that outstanding, it's just a really nice drop and an airtime hill right after, some irrelevant elements in the middle and then 4 more airtime hills. In general, holiday park is sadly one of the worst theme parks I've ever visited. If you're doing the much much much much better Phantasialand / Europa Park / etc. that are a few hours away, maybe stop by holiday park once for at most half a day or not at all, because Expedition Geforce is still the only standout attraction here, everything else except the log flume is much worse than this.

This is not a roller coaster, it's a VR experience. If you go into it accepting that, you can have a good amount of fun with it as long as the headset doesn't bug out, which sadly happens pretty frequently. But in that case, just ask if you can ride again due to it. Do not ride this without the VR headset, without the VR it's 100% pointless (looking at you Teeroy).

The very first row and the very last row is just too intense because it throws you around sideways and the bad lap bar stretches across both seats, it feels unsafe and hurts and also rattles a ton on those seats. After only riding in those 2 rows, I felt awful and never wanted to ride it again. However, after giving it a third chance in the middle, it was fine and quite good. I would recommend (if the queue is short) to start with the row exactly in the middle and continuously go back a few rows with each ride.

You don't ride Euro Mir because it's a roller coaster, you ride it because it's just a fun relaxing experience that happens to have a pretty nice, rather intense coaster at the end. The soundtrack is great and the outdoor section before the drop gives you a great view of the rest of Europa Park. Luckily, the restraints don't actually bother me, but I can see how they can be pretty hurtful for other people or if you don't prepare yourself for the very sudden break run and your knee gets thrown against the front of the train. Also, an original trainings module of the Mir space station is right above the queue line and can be visited as a pretty interesting museums piece, highly recommended to also go in there once. Edit: during the winter event, when it's fully dark, the view both from the top and during the ride is absolutely phenomenal, the thousands of lights on the huge mirror towers combined with the already fanastically lit rest of the park is absolutely amazing. When you look up while riding through that, especially in the front row while rotated forwards after the drop, you get the probably greatest night ride view of any coaster.

In the beginning it can feel a bit too fast and you might feel the urge to brake, but sadly the rest of the layout is rather slow and pointless. But the fact that you see your exact time at the exit that you feel the urge to improve on and the decent theming and rather unique/interesting ride model still makes this a decent attraction with a horrible capacity. The fact that many people wait 30m+ for this is sad, it's absolutely not worth that.

It's way too forceless and also a bit rattly. The launch out of the station is a pretty fun effect, but the rest just feels pointless due to no forces and no inversions.

Rode it once first row, no interest in riding it ever again. It wasn't even really uncomfortable for me (because it was cold and so I was wearing a bunch of clothes that were padding my shoulders/head etc.), but this coaster is just rather pointless. It's not fast, your view is heavily restricted due to the (very much needed) thick cushioning that the seats have for your head which makes the inversions less interesting, it's not really intense, it's rather short, it's just not a good roller coaster. The most fun I had with this attraction was standing in the queue line, seeing the "Iron Claw" entrance sign on the station and then looking to the right and seeing a sign that says "Joy was never an option". I know that it's part of the (very lackluster) theming, but I choose to believe that the person that put this there was aware how fitting such a sign is for an SLC.

It's a completely pointless ride, it's been a waste of time every time I ridden it. Even in the second to last row (not the last one because wheel seat), in the afternoon when it's fully warmed up, it just doesn't give any forces. No airtime, no sense of speed, no real laterals, nothing. And it's not even as smooth as some other woodies. I have no idea why this ride exists and it's sad that it's such a waste of space. The theming is good however, cool pre-lifthill dark ride scene

It doesn't have any good forces, it's not intense, not really fast, nothing. It only has one thing: the worst sideways shake and potholes imaginable. Riding bandit feels like driving your car slowly across a bunch of rocks. I had a good amount of fun experiencing this trainwreck once (in the first row) and laughing the entire ride about how terrible it is, and now I'll never have to ride it again.

Just some drop and inversion with some awful headbanging. It's extremely short, which is good because it means less headbanging. Why do restraints like these exist?

If you sit in the back rows and really like floater airtime, this is a really great coaster with a fast moving queue. If you prefer ejector over floater airtime or really care about theming, this ride isn't for you. Also, you can freely pick your row and there's a separate queue for the first row, but there's sadly no single rider line and because of that there are very often empty seats, however the ride ops stop you from using them and tell you to queue again, which is an annoying waste of an empty seat.

An extremely intense coaster with a great and very long layout and really good theming in the queue/station. It's a masterpiece. But depending on your train/seat it can be too rattly, and either way this is one of the few coasters that I could never marathon re-ride, it's just too intense for that.

It's a pretty cool, long water ride. The coaster sections of it are decent, but there's not that much of it. However, the restraints can seriously hurt if you have your knees on the left and right side and they get thrown against the metal, I would strongly recommend to anyone riding this coaster to force yourself to keep your knees pressed together, exactly in the middle. This one trick changed my opinion of this coaster from "fuck this, hurts way too much" to "yeah, pretty nice, might do it once every time I visit Europa Park".

The launch is nice and it goes through the layout with decent speed and the bike-position is kinda interesting if you're doing it for the first time, but that's about it, the ride itself has very little forces and there is basically no theming. I didn't care about re-riding it when it was a walk-on, so if you encounter it with a long queue, I would recommend skipping it.

Great effect of riding into the mouth of the fire and smoking spewing giant. Great first drop and first 3 airtime hills and also the last 3 airtime hills are pretty great, all are more towards floater, but it ofc depends on which seat you are in. Sadly in 2025 it has a rattle, but in the non-wheel seats it's easy to ignore that. It's big issue is the middle part of the layout, which is basically pointless, nothing happens in the middle.
