Fun fact for you: the guy in the back of the car wasn't just a character from a show. He's the actual actor himself. He does live shows every summer in the Plopsa theater and does that car thing once per day on those days

3:30 You JUST walked through the gate and I'm already blown away by the most unexpected thing: the kid's strollers are LITERALLY WODDEN WAGONS. IDK why that is so amazing, but it's a level of surprise and delight that no American park would bother to go to.

I mean its quite common, heck nearly all parks in Europe and other open air attractions used to have such little kids wagons, however many of them have retired them due to them being quite old.

Ah yes the park i grew up with, this was literally my summer care when i was a kid. We live in the nearby town and me and my sister could just walk to the entrance everyday during the summer break and we had a whole day to ride attractions (like everyday during the summer XD), it was never boring ! Lots of memories, we have seen tons of attractions come and go ! Glad you visited our park in tiny Belgium , 10/10 review ! (Oh and the guy in the backseat of the car was "Kabouter Klus" from the Belgian (dutch-speaking) "Kabouter Plop" TV Show.

We visited last weekend and had an amazing time here. The hotel is incredibly well themed and the included breakfast and dinner options were delicious! The water park was lots of fun too and we all loved Plopsaland itself. My only disappointment was the later opening times for the bigger rides which meant that we missed out on some extra rides on Anubis and The Ride to Happiness, but overall it was a fantastic place to visit and we will definitely return.

@TheNextOuting Жыл бұрын

The Ride to Happiness is almost a perfect roller coaster in our eyes, we absolutely love it.

On the money saving aspect, when my friend and I took a big trip across Europe last year, we bought a Plopsa season pass. Not only did that get us admission to Plopsaland De Panne and Holiday Park, but it also includes discounts on merchandise as well as discounted tickets to several other parks across Europe. It really saved us quite a bit of money.

@Marty_NZ Жыл бұрын

I did that too! I think mine is still valid to August this year. Saved so much money on other park tickets with it! Even Walibi Belgium had a great discount. Didn't help with the 5 Euro water bottles though. That was daylight robbery.

@GianniTheodoor Жыл бұрын

As a Belgian, it's so weird to hear Studio 100 and K3 in English 😅 Great review, spot on! Only thing I would add is the lack of cohesive themes. Besides Wicky and Maja, all attractions are just put there. Great theming, but a Dino splash next to a Castle coaster and a German Alpine village...

Agree with your comments. We were there the day you were and stayed at the Plopsa Hotel, which I would highly recommend. It is expensive, but the service was better than any hotel we stayed at in Europe (including Colisseum at Europa Park and Hotel Matamba at Phatasialand). We actually left the park to visit Bray Dunes France, just across the border for 3 hours, and then came back to the park to ride Happiness several more times. Beautiful park in a beautiful area of Europe. Highly recommend visiting!

Anubis isn't a eurofighter, it's part of the launch coaster model, same goes for lynet. If it doesn't have a vertical lift hill and a beyond vertical drop, it's not a eurofighter, all of them have it.

I'm pretty sure the launch coaster isn't an official model anymore. Gerstlauer have just started putting launches on their euro fighters and infinity coasters. They don't have a specific model for launches anymore.

@DaanBruins Жыл бұрын

@@sethbridge2761 True, they don't make that model anymore. They originally made this model separate from the Eurofighter. but when they started putting launches on their infinities and eurofighters, a model specifically for launches became redudant. That's why there were only two sold. That doesn't make Anubis and Lynet anything other than a launch coaster though. I mean, galleons aren't made anymore, but they're still galleons and not motorboats.

Absolutely agree with you in all points. We visited Plopsaland last year, because of RtH. The best coaster I've ever ridden. It's a really nice and scenic park, especially for families. K3 was down then, so I had a lost count. I could take it. But the prices for food and drinks are so expensive. I bought a RtH shirt there, because, yeah I have to 😅. I paid "only" 40€ for it. Without the Mack Extreme Spinning Coaster, I don't think I would visit it again. But there it is...😉

It will be very interesting which steps Plopsaland takes next. Putting in Ride To Happiness was unusual, both the thrill level and the Tomorrowland theming. Both point more to young adults. Maybe they want to attract a wider audience.

@pietervandercammen9006 Жыл бұрын

I think they added 'Ride To Happiness' to satisfy adults who visit Plospaland out of nostalgia, or to lure people who want to visit it out of nostalgia but don't think it is worth the price because there aren't enough extreme rides. They built Anubis the Ride to lure young adults who watched the show 'The House of Anubis' but became too old for the children-rides and now they are doing the same for those people with 'RTH''.

I would say that this park could do with a B&M surf. With that it would fill the empty gap of coasters. It would also bring coaster fans who can’t go to sea world for obvious reasons to plopsa so the only coaster that they do is not just ride to happiness or Anubis.

I feel duped. Seeing that Magicspoon ad with the Queenstown New Zealand tshirt makes me sad that we don't get it in NZ. Also, yes, I agree with this review. That 5 Euro water bottles annoyed me so much. I also bought that 9 ride express pass and was well worth it in the end. I actually skipped the Super Splash. I did some research on it before hand and there's a special rule as to why it's not classed as a coaster according to RCDB. "These two rides do not have the before-drop dip as all other SuperSplash rides have. rcdb rules require this dip to be classified as a water coaster." Coaster Count obviously counts it because it counts almost anything lol.

I was in Belgium a few months after you were and I think high prices are a Belgium thing, not a Plopsaland thing.

SuperSplash isn't considered a coaster, because the only coaster elements it has are a drop and an airtime hill. There are log flumes that do that as well like Chiapas. And Chiapas isn't a coaster. Atlantica SuperSplash IS a coaster because of the backwards drop. Big Timber Log Ride is also a coaster because of the dip before the drop. I believe there are multiple SuperSplashes that aren't considered coaster.
