Visiting South America's BEST Theme Park! The AMAZING Parque Del Café in Colombia! Vlog & Tour

[@splumpy8469]

The fact you guys were even aware of this park is so insane Edit:my family is from Colombia so I went here when I was like 7 and just seeing you guys there is so bizarre

[@ATLSloan]

This was such an amazing trip with everyone! El Parque del Cafe is easily the most underrated park in the world…grab your fellow enthusiasts and get to Colombia 🇨🇴. Safe travels on y’all’s next adventure!! Sloan

[@OmegaChrisRBX]

I been here when I was like four or five with my Colombian grandfather. He passed away from cancer in 2015 and this park gives me memories of him. Thank you for giving this park recognition.

[@rixrobin]

Sarah riding krater before its clones iron shark and tantrum is like ride to happiness before time traveler on another level.

[@ThemeParkOgre]

I'm looking forward to watching this! This park came up in my thoosie research awhile back and I was surprised at how good it looked.

[@mcj2024]

Thank you for showing it guys! Muchas gracias ❤

[@christianortiz-v1l]

Zambezi Zinger looks like the perfect family coaster & Krater looks like a top tier euro fighter!

[@VerticalLoop]

There are clones in Galveston, Darien Lake, and that one.

[@DollywoodEnthusiast1]

Your content is amazing, I love all your videos, you really got me into coasters

[@thenewgray]

"And the horse is like.. I know that" good stuff

[@Drunkenknifingducks]

I’m from Medellin, and it’s so nice to see you guys visiting my country ❤

[@kurtissmith3409]

I grew up in KC and Zambizi was a huge part of my childhood. I will forever love that ride.

[@riparianlife97701]

I've watched this 3 times. I'm going next month. You definitely talked me into it.

[@nfcoasterferg]

I'm a rider of the original Zinger. I last rode it when I was 10 years old and loved it. I distinctly remember that drop off of the lift hill turnaround, especially in the back. You are turning right around the lift hill and then the drop off that turnaround whips you to the left part way down...loved that moment. Some day I'll get down to Columbia a relive that bliss :)

[@rod.duarte99]

Hey guys, this really looks like it could be the best park in south america, park looks amazing and well kept! I really wish to get around to it someday, especially seing as its much more acessible for me than the USA titans. However, I'd really like to see you guys give the Brazilian parks a go soon, more specifically, the 2 "big ones". They both only have four coasters, but seeing as you guys are willing to come to south america, I'm sure they're worth a visit. Also, the exchange rate is awesome for you guys. 1 USD = 5 BRL right now. Beto Carrero World is a MUST GO because of their many shows (If im not mistaken, they have 7 included in admission and 1 PPV). They have A SLC, a very pretty one in fact, a corckscrew with bayern curve, a vekoma junior custom coaster, and a wackyworm lol. Their rheming is pretty nice id say, but nothing crazy. However, for the last 4 years the park has been getting major overhauls and starting to look more and more like a hig-end one. Also, theres rumor that Starmountain (the corcksscrew coaster) is being sold and theyre gonna put a B&M in its place; So, I guess, wait for that lol...I'm sure then it would be more appealing. The other big one, my home park (30 minutes from me) is Hopi Hari. Its had a bumpy history, with a big death in 2012 and bankrupcy problems around 2017-2019. However, the park is back in its feet and theyre really on the upswing. This year they're opening 3 new attractions (family rides, sure, but still, good sign, right?) and the park president has the dream to RMC MONTEZUM, a RCCA coaster...so yeah, again, maybe wait for that, its "in the plans" for 2026-2027, cause the park has to respect a bankrupcy payment plan (idk the terms in english) for the next few years. Besides the RCCA, they have a shuttle loop called Katapul (used to be King Kobra at Kings Island and Thunderlooper at alton towrers, so thats nice), a zamperla powerd coaster (i know...i know) and an intamin spinnig coaster, the biggest one of 2-3 in the world, so, a rare credit i'd say. Their theming is also nice, althugh they dont have that many shows, only 3. Anyways, hope you guys see this and it peeks your interests, even if only a little. Love the content! Keep up the AWESOME work and thanks for showing some love to this god forsaken continent when it comes to coasters. Edit: I extend this invitation to anyone who thinks its a worthwhile trip, and make myself avaliable to answer any questions about those and other parks here in my country, as well as Fantasialandia, in Chile, which I've also been to.

[@lucasdearaujotravassos9401]

Up!

[@sr.chi7741]

Rmc montezum, Fantasilandia getting a gci and new gen vekoma...

[@ellexking9136]

Love everyone's Enthusiasm about riding The Original Zambezi Zinger. When I rode The Coaster, it didn't have Seatbelts when operating at Worlds of Fun. I would be Absolutely Thrilled, if I could take a trip to Minsk, Belarus, and ride The Jumbo Jet that once operated at Cedar Point. Those 2 Car Trains also had No Safety Restraints of Anykind!!🎢⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💞

[@Marty_NZ]

Great group of people and the park looks awesome

[@rollertoaster812]

The hot air balloon also came from Worlds of Fun... 😀

[@toyoracer33]

I think I'm in love with this park.

[@rabooey]

Saying "wheeeee!" on the Yippe ride. Damn tourists.

[@vonrollskyway1]

A historical Von Roll Skyride. That Von Roll Skyride came from a few places. Uses the gondolas and grips from the former Bronx Zoo and the ride its self is a ride that was put up at Worlds fairs around the world. Got to love a park that still has there Von Roll Skyride

[@jaydee-222]

Hey, I was there in 2002! It’s an awesome place. So beautiful.

[@brianscorp]

That looks like such an amazing trip beautiful scenery, I am jealous😊! Another 👏 great job & well done on your tour of the park, can I have some of that coffee please!😋

[@parks.atelier]

Parque del Café is definitely a great theme park! Really wish you guys came to Brazil, we have the best waterparks in the World, and soon enough BCW and HH will be great international-level theme parks as well! Nerf Island will be opening later this year, and Hopi Hari already officially said that they have an intention o converting Montezum to a hybrid! Another park that goes pretty much unnoticed is Fantasilandia, in Chile. They'll soon be relocating and adding a couple new gen vekomas and a GCI! It is already, in my vision, the best amusement park for rides in South America, they'll only improve

[@rod.duarte99]

Realmente cara, o fantasilandia tem uma coleção de brinquedos muiiiito top, se melhorar a lineup de montanhas russas ficaria a nível de parques pequenos da cedar fair, na minha opinião. Quando visitei lá fiquei encantado e achei muito bem organizado, melhor que Beto Carrero e Hopi, na minha opinião, mas talvez seja só parcialidade, por ser minha única visita internacional de parque. Mas as vistas do parque eram lindaaaaas! Pra onde será que ele vai mudar? Vai ficar muito longe de Santiago?

[@parks.atelier]

@@rod.duarte99 quando eu visitei em 2016 eu fiquei bem surpreso! Não imaginava aquele tanto de brinquedos, me passou uma sensação de Playcenter em Santiago. Eu prefiro o HH e BCW porque curto mais uma experiência completa com temática, mas o Fanta é um ótimo parque! Essa relocação deles foi anunciada antes da pandemia, se não me engano, e incluía essas novas montanhas russas, parque aquático e algumas outras coisas a mais, já q eles não tem mais espaço de expansão no O'Higgins, mas imagino q foi adiado depois de tudo oq rolou em 2020 kkkkk

[@rod.duarte99]

@@parks.atelier então, um Playcenter só que melhorado, na minha opinião (mas vale apontar que visitei o Playcenter só uma vez, e foi em 2011, o parque já estava nas suas últimas pernas, e a looping star não abriu o dia todo 😭😭 não tenho o crédito dela até hoje). Entendo a questão da tematização, o fanta realmente é menos "preocupado" com isso, mas jogo essa culpa na falta de espaço. Oq eles fazem com o pouco que tem é incrível. E o tren minero eu achei que tem temática boa (inclusive o tren minero tem mais airtime que Montezum e star mountain juntas kkkkk só ele valeu a experiência) se destacou do resto do parque. Mas oq pega muito é a coleção INCRÍVEL de flat Ride que eles tem. Depois de 2016 ainda abriram muita coisa boa (nova geração do enterprise, pêndulo que vira 360 graus, e uma espécie de sky screamer, pra ser mais exato) e eles tão sempre trazendo coisa nova, coisa que não acontece(ia) aqui no Brasil. Agora com essa movimentação do Beto, provavelmente ele volta a ser melhor na minha opinião, tenho que ir pra lá ano que vem, minha última visita foi em 2020, e faço visitas pro Beto de 4 em 4 anos desde 2012, e as modernizações que acompanho pela hapfun mostram que provavelmente tá chegando num nível mais elevado de organização (coisa que eu já vi no fantasilandia quando visitei, que foi 03/09/2022 inclusive jkkkkkk não tinha falado ainda. Enfim, competição é a alma do negócio, e também voltaria pro fantasilandia daqui 4 anos, com localização nova ou não hahahaha

[@sr.chi7741]

Wait where did you find that Fantasilandia is getting a gci and a new gen vekoma? I'm half Chilean so I'm glad to know about that

[@maxhagenauer24]

This park actually looks so amazing and underated.

[@ytzpilot]

Zambezi is awesome. I remember those coasters back in the 1970s when they were called Jumbo Jet, what a relic 🤩

[@mikeman2do]

The speed racer /extended jumbo jet models are amazing! As a kid I won a ton of stuffed animals 1 day & filled a whole car with just me & them. No one fell out! 29:06

[@tylercoon3833]

South American Tantrum!!

[@rowan_8755]

Realistic additions under $10 million: - Chance rides Hyper-GTX (Lightning Run only $7 million) - Family or Thrill Gravity Group Wooden (Kentucky Flyer $5 million/Cú Chulainn $9 million) Or if they want to spend a bit more: - Vekoma Sit-down is (Lech Coaster $12.8 million/Fonix $14.3 million) - Vekoma STC & Junior Boomerrang (Unnamed for Emerald Park is $17.1. Would be less for just STC) - Vekoma Launch (Abyssus $11.8 million)

[@rod.duarte99]

One of my biggest wishes is to see a Hyper-GTX at either Hopi Hari or Beto Carrero World here in Brazil. Lightining run seems like such a small beast, and that price tag is affordable enough. Brazil really need some better coasters, I swear lol

[@rowan_8755]

@@rod.duarte99 Hopi Hari had an Intamin 10 inversion coaster which decided not to build which is now here in the UK at flamingo land as Sik

[@rod.duarte99]

​@@rowan_8755 yeah, believe me, I know that story all too well lol. I know nobody asked for it, but here goes a bit of history. We actually saw 10I be shipped to the park, and they had advertisments about and all that. However, they """"decided"""" not to build it due to lack of money caused by the then recent multimillionaire contract with Warner bros to use Justice league and Looney Toons on top of multimillionaire settlements and such caused by the death of a girl on their drop tower, on the same year as the contract and the coaster were bought. Also, since opening, the park had bad administration (corruption and such) which ultimately caused the mentioned lack of money, and upon further Investigation, the park actually had a lotta debt, so the coaster had to be put aside, and eventually, sold. The 10 Inversions coaster was supposed to be a reaction to the SLC opened 3 or so year prior, at Beto Carrero World, which is the only other big park in Brazil. Therefore, the fact that the park had so many problems also affected Beto Carrero's expansion, seeing as competition is everything, and as Beto Carrero had virtually no competition from 2012-2019, they were Able to accommodate. However, as Hopi Hari has now, since 2021 been really on the upswing, Beto Carrero started shaking things up a bit too. The two parks are definitely gonna become better and better now, just as happens with American parks, precisely due to the fact that they have competition. Also, cacau show, Wich is the main Brazilian Chocolate producer is planning to open a park in the molds of Hersheypark (obviously way smaller, I suppose something like half the size, although that's fair, since as Hershey probably was way smaller when it opened). But what I mean is the park is gonna be right next to their main factory, and near Brazil's biggest city, São Paulo. Basically, all that is to say that Brazil is gonna FINALLY, JUST NOW, begin to see a rise in coaster and parks culture. We actually have a VERY STRONG water park culture, every single city seems to have one lmao. Anyways, if you read all this 5h1t, I sir, salute you. Thanks for the attention.

[@glizz5100]

Im happy for james!!! Im tearin up lol! Yay! Beautiful Park!!!

It may be in Columbia but this park has a good enough lineup to be a great homepark and it's just beautiful.

I love Whizzer still has just a seatbelt too! 💚

[@AdamSmith-gs2dv]

Looks like a great park. You are right though: the reason it is not talked about more is solely because its in Colombia

[@petemurfey8219]

In the good old days there weren't any seatbelts on Willard's Whizzer at Marriott's Great America - a twin of the Zambezi Zinger. Nohing keeping you in the train but physics, snuggle power, and your will to live. It was awesome! (and a little terrifying)

Can't wait for the review!

[@Jp-he9vt]

I went on the zambezi zinger once and it was so much fun

[@extremeroller]

The antique fire truck on the left is also from Worlds of Fun

As for a next coaster, a GCI twister going through the jungle like roaring timbers in Vietnam would fit perfectly.

I love how the actual name of the ride (Montana Rusa) is pretty much not even mentioned, you guys just call it Zambezi Zinger. It's like calling Firebird Iron Wolf all the time.

[@UndercoverPictures]

As someone who just moved to Israel. One park has an SLC which is torture and the other park has a boomerang. Hahaha

[@TheLastLcch]

if you guys come to chile, it's not worth it. Only big coasters we have are just vekoma coasters like the Boomerang (thankfully with the new restraints) and a vekoma SLC
