Fly is a very original, intense and fun roller coaster. I find it a perfect example of taking roller coasters to the limit, without making it unreachable for a big audience. Fly is heavily themed on a scale I haven't seen before and delivers a perfect ride. For me the best coaster I have done till now.

This is a awesome ride, bus you have to get lucky with the position you're in when you start. There's a wide variety in the experience: when you're facing backwards at the start it's totally different...

This is a awesome ride, bus you have to get lucky with the position you're in when you start. There's a wide variety in the experience: when you're facing backwards at the start it's totally different then facing side wards in the different directions. So you have to try it al lot. :-) And sometimes it a bit to intense for my taste. For now, I have four excellent rides on seven.

The score may confuse people. Arthur isn't a pure rollercoaster. It's a coaster used to get you trough a dark ride. A very good one. The system is technically very advanced, and I haven't seen anythin...

The score may confuse people. Arthur isn't a pure rollercoaster. It's a coaster used to get you trough a dark ride. A very good one. The system is technically very advanced, and I haven't seen anything that comes close to it. Arthur is one of my favorite rides.

I like wooden coasters, and Wodan is one of the best traditional one's. I don't give it a five, because there are hybrid wooden coaster now (Zadra! Tonnere 2 Zeus!) and the're better. So the 5-ratings...

Blue Fire is a great coaster, with a nice lay out. I like it very much. I don't like the single riders set up. I tried it a couple of times and I had to wait way to long. If you choose the line you can't see if its faster than the regular line and that's stupid. What's the point if you have to wait half an hour longer??? The main reason is that groups take the single riders line because they think there going to be faster. There a lot of frustrations because of that.

Poseïdon is better than Vliegende Hollander in the Efteling. Both have the same concept: combining a roller coaster with a water coaster. Poseidon is much better at it, although Vliegende Hollander ha...

Poseïdon is better than Vliegende Hollander in the Efteling. Both have the same concept: combining a roller coaster with a water coaster. Poseidon is much better at it, although Vliegende Hollander has better theming.

I've ridden it on five visits to the park and it's still one of my favorite hyper coasters, despite of the competition of the last decade. Silver Star has a good theme (Mercedes!), a impressive income hall, a great first drop, a smart layout and so delivers a solid experience.

I was very disappointed in this one. It stands next to Taron, one of my favorite coasters, but it's like the opposite of all the fun I had on that coaster. I'm going to skip this one on my next visit,...

I was very disappointed in this one. It stands next to Taron, one of my favorite coasters, but it's like the opposite of all the fun I had on that coaster. I'm going to skip this one on my next visit, I think.

You can only indicate three pros? That's disappointing! I would like to mark ten pros... One of the best roller coasters out there, without a doubt. It's not the most challenging of them all, but this is a masterpiece. A LOT of people can get on it, because it feels so comfortable and safe. Some people like other coasters more because more people don't dare to get on it, but I then you only rate to brag. Top class roller coaster!

Fénix is the best coaster of Toverland, and maybe of the Netherlands. I has a certain grandeur when you watch it, and you experience it when you're on it. If it wasn't so short it would be one of my favorite rides, no question about that. Fortunately it happens often that there isn't a waiting line (I could go three times on the first row, almost without waiting) which makes it possible to extend the time spended on Fénix. Top class coaster!

This is the first roller coaster I have done in my live. I'm 53 now and it still works. It's really really really worn out. But since they will tear it down in September I tried it one more time. This...

This is the first roller coaster I have done in my live. I'm 53 now and it still works. It's really really really worn out. But since they will tear it down in September I tried it one more time. This was just nostalgia, nothing else. Time for something new.

I like Dawson Duel. You wouldn't expect something like this in Bellewaerde, where there are now hills. It's a fun ride in a beautiful environment. It takes a long walk to get to the top, but it's wort...

I like Dawson Duel. You wouldn't expect something like this in Bellewaerde, where there are now hills. It's a fun ride in a beautiful environment. It takes a long walk to get to the top, but it's worth it.

It's an old ride, and you notice that. It's pretty intense, and has a good layout. But it's like riding an old car, which brings out old memories. The ride isn't what it was in your memory; it feels s...

It's an old ride, and you notice that. It's pretty intense, and has a good layout. But it's like riding an old car, which brings out old memories. The ride isn't what it was in your memory; it feels smaller, slower, more uncomfortable, and less fun now.

I like Oziris a lot. It's the best suspended coaster I know AND it has great theming. Not only with the boarding station (an beautiful Egyptian tempel), but also the environment is great, there are li...

I like Oziris a lot. It's the best suspended coaster I know AND it has great theming. Not only with the boarding station (an beautiful Egyptian tempel), but also the environment is great, there are live actors doing a show and the music is nice. A example for other parcs!

Vliegende Hollander is kind of a Dark Ride, combined with a Roller Coaster and a Splash. It's not world top a any of those things but the combination really works. I prefer Poseidon at Europapark, but...

Vliegende Hollander is kind of a Dark Ride, combined with a Roller Coaster and a Splash. It's not world top a any of those things but the combination really works. I prefer Poseidon at Europapark, but it's a good second. I will never go to the Efteling and not getting on this one. It's a unique and original ride. Great work from Efteling!
