It amazes me how these parks operate. They must make a huge loss. Every vlog I've ever watched from Dubai/UAE the parks are deserted. Beautiful though themeing at Motiongate!

You guys have brought me so much joy because recently my grandfather passed away unexpectedly and you guys make me so happy when you go to new places

I just love your vlogs. You literally cover everything and we feel like we're there with you both. Dubai looks stunning. Can't wait to watch the rest of your trip ❤ xx

awsome to see the trips begin once more, almost 2 years since the engagement, still best moment on the channel.

I got so excited when I saw you posted I've been waiting to see you guys getting back on trips, its always so lovely to see all these different places in which I hope to explore myself one day!

What an amazing park with a really nice balance of rides. Some of those queues are top notch. The John Wick queue set design is one of the coolest I’ve ever seen.

Happy new year guys . You have to give the hunger games films ago , even if it’s just something to watch whilst you’re travelling, the first 2 films are unbelievable. Park looks frigging awesome

@15:15 I’m crying!! This is amazing ❤

This vlog right here has inspired me to look into booking a trip to the UAE for me and my husband! Thank you so much for sharing!

The 6 year wait for Shaun to take Charlotte to Swallow Falls was worth it! 😋

Charlotte "Should of bought a PONCHO! We all know how charlotte loves a water ride!? 😊😂🤣 Charlotte your funny.

Great start to the trip! What a very nicely themed park. Everything looked very well done and taken care of. I loved the Las Vegas Fremont Street replica!

Love the content keep it up and can't wait for all the new rollercoasters in 2024

Incredible theming! It's on our bucket list to go and do a review, great vlog guys!

Looks like a decent park. Enjoy your trip! Looking forward to all the vlogs.

Stayed at Dubai Parks and Resorts back in July 2018, so we had full access to the then 3 parks here! Such a great park, would definitely go back if I could.

Love the vlog. We went in August 23 and it was super hot, seeing all the fantastic theming is making us want to go back. I just can’t understand why they don’t get so many visitors as the park is amazing.

Fab vlog, takes me back , when we visited last year, the parks were so quiet when we visited in August as well, that meatballs water ride got us as well, but was nice in the 40c heat, now you see me ride, hunger games area brilliant, hope people start visiting :) 😊

Fantastic way to start to the trip for the 1st vlog the dreamwork indoor area looked incredible but the cloudy with a chance of meatball water ride was so funny couldn't stop laughing 😂😂😂😂

Another classic clip of Charlotte on a water rapid ride - well done Charlotte you did great!

What a fantastic Park and great layout. The animated Dreamworks section looked really good and very detailed with Shrek, Madagasca and HTTYD (I love Toothless) ❤ Poor Charlotte's face ha ha when she got drenched on the rapids ride 😂 I've been on the Popeye ride at Universal Shawn lol - good job it was sunny to dry off ! The Hotel Transylvania ride was long too. There's 4 films out to watch. Not a Smurf fan but the ride had lots of action and things to look at. Having the character actors out and about is good. Great vlog👍

Great update - inspired to visit and really enthused for universal GB!!!

Thanks, guys, for showing me what the park has to offer at this time of year. It's definitely food for thought as I sit here in a cold, damp Wales.

This park is epic and so well themed … classic rapids and poor Charlotte being soaked … was gold !!

My favourite part 😂😂 watching Charlotte on the water rides especially the soakers 😂😂

🎪🎥🎞🎬⛲ What a fantastic park looks outstanding glad it was a positive experience overall.

Well done for going on the water ride you are doing amazing with them xxx

28:40 Charlotte's famous last word. "But it is quite warm." 😂😂😂

This park looks amazing! Like a dream for theme park fans who are also movie fans. I would book myself a ticket, but my goodness, is it far away and expensive to get there. This park would get so much more visitors if this stands in Europe.

Great vlog - i dont know anything about theme parks in dubai so this is great to see. Dreamworks section looks a lot of fun 😊

That rapids looks awesome! Charlotte should be pleased with that weather!

Great first Theme Park Vlog of 2024 Shawn and Charlotte

Looking forward to watching this!

Been waiting for this!

Great video as always! If that park was in the UK it would be packed everyday!

'I need a poncho' POOR CHARLOTTE 😂

Hope you have an amazing trip ❤🎉

Aw Shrek is fantastic and that ride recreated the most iconic scenes - the stage show is awesome too. Swallow Falls was fun lol.

56:29 the world's only coaster with platform screen doors. Platform gates, normal in the coaster world-although I know the Giant Inverted Boomerang/Invertigo have full height gates instead of closer to the waist like what is expected.

Certainly looks an impressive park with some great indoor themed areas. Something like this in the uk would be great.

That place was so well kept , although quiet it was definately a well funded, well presented theme park , shame the numbers arent higher , although us in the west do have a bigger obsession with theme parks it seems , if you built this in England it would be packed

You’re amazing shawn!

370k subscribers confirmed congratulations theme park worldwideeee

Lovely park in Dubai loved the themesx

It’s not somewhere I’m ever likely to go so it’s really interesting to see all the parks and get a sense of the attractions on offer - nice to get some sunny warmth even if just via a screen! 😅

Fantastic theme park! Amazing to see absolutely nobody around!

Excellent video Shawn and Charlotte from a visit to Motiongate Dubai! This movie-themed park opened in 2016 and features 7 roller coasters, along with a fantastic variety of dark rides and other attractions. In this vlog, we show you everything that Motiongate Dubai has to offer, including all of the rides and themed areas. This includes the incredible indoor Dreamworks-themed area, Capitol Bullet Train, John Wick, Ghostbusters, and much more! keep the good videos coming on the channel, Shawn and Charlotte from the trip from on the channel. 😀😎👍👍

16:03 A screen like the dragon eye for the Nemesis monster would be awsome on the station structure body for Nemesis

looks amazing. i loved the look of the shrek ride :) hope you both are having the best time!

I’m Excited 😜

Wow this park looks great! I’ve never heard of it before. Didn’t even realise Dubai had theme parks. Very quiet. I wonder if the school holidays are a lot busier? We can only go in the school holidays because I am a teacher but would definitely consider a February half term visit next year to this place! I couldn’t visit in the summer, it would be too hot for me. The hotel you’re stopping at looks great too. Charlotte on the rapids was a hilarious highlight😆. Great Vlog

Shawn you absolutely have to watch the Hotel Transylvania films when you get back. They are brilliant

I wonder if on ride filming would help with attendance. I will miss the povs but super excited for traveling along with you! That was an epic rapids ride!

wow what a fantastic place love sherk my favourite 😍I hope if they build in the UK we get all that to. Great video look forward to the rest

It just goes to show the results you can achieve when you're free to pre-plan every detail of a brand new park to be built from the ground up. Perfection!

Sadly the locals couldn’t care less about theme parks, and the tickets are quite expensive, just a shame really with how nice the park is, but at least the waits are short! You used to be able to film on rides for the first year from memory, then it stopped suddenly. The only thing these parks in DPR seem to miss is key theming on the rides, for example Green Hornet coaster was originally meant to have tunnels and generally a lot to look at, but the budget seemed to have ran out after doing the queues. Nothing to complain about in the queue lines though, sometimes they are more exciting than the ride itself! I am just watching the video as I type and I noticed you said the same! If they invested in the right things, it would be so much better. For example, the huge fake shops by the Now You See Me coaster, there’s no need, and theming on the rides itself would be preferable! Expect to see bigger queues in waterparks and also on Yas Island! Make sure to do some tourist attractions too, if you can! Enjoy yourselves!

Looks a great park must say i do love to see the on ride filming.have a great time shawn and charlotte.sorry to say it did make me laugh on the rapids that 1st splash poor charlotte got

great vlog both bloomin freezing in the uk 🇬🇧 have a great time 😄😄😄

congratulations on 370 subscribers

I’m not too surprised it looks so fresh when no one appears to go there to ruin it anyway 😅 x

What an impressive park. I prefer parks when they are not very busy. Love Ghostbusters ! xx

CONGRATS🤩❤️

Aww feel so sorry for Charlotte getting wet on the river expedition ride but with the sunny weather I bet it didn't take too long to dry off bless her

Brilliant vlog

Ah charlotte breaking my heart laughing your face a picture cloudy with a chance of water drops

Some people have stated how empty it is, however you have visited in January. A lot of tourism is from summer holidays as I know many people personally who are visiting for the summer.

Hey Shawn and Charlotte am currently not very well so am watching your videos to cheer me up you guys are amazing have a nice trip in Abu Dabi

I do remember swallow falls 😂

I’m in Dubai too watching your vlog. Looks I need to visit Motiongate as well.

You know 5 mins before that water ride Charlotte was promised it wasn’t that bad 😅😅

Loving the gate entrance of the park. 👍

The video is so wobbly it’s making me feel like I’m on a rollercoaster

Omg you have to watch the hotel Transylvania movies especially around Halloween..They are so cute but still good enough to hold adults attention. You must watch them!!!

Hope you guys had a great 2023

There is nothing funnier then Charlotte when she gets soaked 😂

Charlotte needed a poncho!!!🤣

Perfect weather for water rides Charlotte. X

Omg love the Shrek ride ❤❤ U missed Ghostbusters

Thank you for showing us this, as many of us wouldn't consider visiting such a country, I would honestly rather spend a weekend on Brighton Pier than step foot in that place

looks like the park is at around 5% capacity as usual with these uae spots... ! wonder what they will look like in 40 years

Can't believe how quite the park is guys, I honestly would think a park like that would be busy year round. Maybe it's the thing in Dubai but I could guarantee back home Alton Towers would be a lot busier given the fact it's 23 degrees.

Shawn and Charlotte, Beautiful parks but very few people. The rides are hit and miss, unfortunately but I'm looking forward to the next resort! Cheers, Rik Spector

Awesome Video Guys 😄😄

i love This park it has some good attractions

Hey guys thank you so much for your videos! We love watching them. Is the Hotel Transylvania and Ghostbuster ride on the ground ? Are there places to eat ?

It's like w Universal studios Orlando that is so cool and that Rapids was funny

helix helix helix 😂

Cool

Hi shawn and Charlotte. I remember watching you and harry here when it first opened. We followed you by going August 18 , i think you did film the onride Madagascar coaster back then , i screamed the whole way round ..also yes it was deserted only about 50 people in the park. I did enjoy the hanging coaster and hotel tran.

Really enjoyed this vlog! It's a shame they don't let you film on the coasters, I'm not a massive fan of coasters and use your vlogs to judge if I can manage to ride them 🤣 Hope your both having a great time over there ❤️

Love your vedios there are amazing

Great video love the theme park vids but If you want tonsee on ride footage from this park. Check out the side menu hide and seek there is loads of onride footage.

First vlog I’ve seen for ages

Shrek ride looks good a nice fanily ride

29:22 Charlotte vs The Rapid XD She didn't even have a pancho!

can you tell me which day did you visit because i visited on Thursday and there was at least 3 hrs waiting time on every ride

I have to say that shrek area looks shrekcelent. It’s just shrektacular! Had to throw in the reference from 6 years ago 😂 (I hope that was this park and not another one 😂)

Cloudy with a chance of evils 🤣🤣🤣🤣

If this park was in the UK it would be packed out, baffles me how countries like that get these kinds of modern IP driven themeparks and attractions and the UK to date is sidelined. Hopefully Universal GB will make amends.

The Shrek dark ride is what Universal Studios Singapore should have built in their massive Far Far Away Castle instead of a cloned 4D cinema attraction.
