I can never get enough of this Intamin masterpiece!
The theming is very immersive, very detailed, with lots of puns all the way.
It's smooth and comfortable, it really feels like flying.

I can never get enough of this Intamin masterpiece!
The theming is very immersive, very detailed, with lots of puns all the way.
It's smooth and comfortable, it really feels like flying.
Hang times and airtime are powerful, and the backwards section is a bliss.
IMO, there are no dead spots, the pace is here all along the layout .
It's by far my number one coaster among any other, even if I really was impressed by Eejanaika in Fujikyu Highland, which is out of this world, but I love the smoothness and grace of Toutatis so much that it can't be dethroned for the moment in my ranking.
I rode it 6 times, and always felt this enthusiasm every time.
Only the park closing prevented me from riding a seventh time on this day.
This ride is even more magical at sunset or at night.
I might change my mind if one day I ride Velocicoaster, who knows?!
Intamin is an elite coaster manufacturer anyway, the best in my opinion and according to my experience in roller coasters.
Edit June 2024: His Majesty Toutatis was sooooo powerful on my last 3 rides, almost angry, it was hot and nervous, and still gracious yet whippy.
And that station, the trains and the soundtrack in the station... What an inspiring ambience...
It's still my #1 to date, even after riding Voltron, which I loved, but gives quite different sensations.
Don't get me wrong, I love Voltron, but I must say that after more than 50 rides, Toutatis remains my #1, because I love the way it feels.
To me, Toutatis offers a variety of features in its layout, and the trim on the top hat is enjoyable, it even adds to the pace IMO, as a kind of break before it starts again, it makes you feel like you're hanging, in a well calculated amount of time. It's not a con but more of a pro now, IMO, if I caught the intention properly, and I really appreciate it by now.
If I could give it 6 stars, I would.
This coaster is a real masterpiece and justifies for itself the annual pass I subscribed for this year.
I rode great coasters this year, but none was able to dethrone this graceful and powerful baby.
If you like the station's music, which is a pure wonder, it's available on YouTube, search for Toutatis Tumulus, it's an official soundtrack by Parc Astérix official.
