Did not see this coming, The situation at Dragon Kharn is ridiculous, especially with such bad operations and many express users. Anyway glad you vlogged this park, it's so different from everywhere in Europe. Love you two's foot very honest and straight to the point 😂😂. Hope you enjoyed your holiday in Spain. 12 hours open is crazy especially in the UK. Thank you two ❤❤

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Thank you for watching ☺️ Yeah the whole Dragon Khan situation was really bad. It was on one train for the whole week we were there ☹️ It was a shame but we didn’t let it ruin our time there. Overall we still had a great time and we will definitely be back ❤️ And yeah, 12 hours operating hours is so good! 😊

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Thanks a lot mate 😊Always appreciate your support! Cannot wait for spooky season!!! 👻

[@typicallyhenri]

what a FANTASTIC vlog! This park really does have a place in my heart, I was able to go for my first time last month and I totally agree with all the things you said. The theming is just amazing and the rides are awesome. Shambhala is probably the best coaster I have ever been on, that drop really does pack a punch! I'm so happy that Hollie is into all these rollercoasters.. she is really brave for her age! I love you guys and can't wait for more videos to come!! :)

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to leave this lovely comment ❤️ We had a lot of fun during our week at PortAventura! Such a lovely park 😍 Shambhala really is incredible both me and Hollie loved it so much 🙌 Thank you so much for your support ❤️

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Thank you for watching! It really is an amazing park. Is slightly let down by the operations but no the whole it’s a fantastic park to visit! We will be back for sure ❤️

The “Good morning” at the start seems iconic at this point❤ 0:00

Haha thank you ☺️ We’ve been thinking of changing our intro will probably keep it though if it’s becoming iconic 🤣😂🤣

[@seanmarshall6544]

Wow that is shocking about the Express on Dragon Khan. Really hope you complained at guest services? Another great vlog though and hope you had a great time there? We went last October and despite the operations etc we found it a lovely park and absolutely loved Shammy B

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Thank you for watching. It really was disappointing and upsetting as we were really looking forward to getting on it 😒 We did complain and they said it was because Dragon Khan was only running on one train. It remained like that for the rest of the week. They still didn't accept express yet they were still selling one shots for the ride all week 🤣 Other than this incident we did have a great time and loved the park. Just wish it was ran better. I don't think we will return in peak summer holidays again. Thinking of October next year 😊

[@Wickerlad_2002]

PORTAVENTURA WORLD is a park that i would really like to visit in the future as Shamballa looks insane and the other coasters, the rapids and other rides look cool too! Id definatley have to buy express passes by the looks of things though as all the vlogs ive seen from this park it is always bussy and operations are really poor.

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Shambhala is such an incredible coaster 🙌 We rode it every day whilst we were there and are missing it already. PortAventura is a fun place to visit for sure with lots of great rides and attractions. We would definitely recommend buying Express, especially if you're only there for a short visit. Thank you for your continued support. It means a lot to us ❤️

[@samanthaingram9440]

Just a bit of info - Dragon Kahn was developed by the famous John Wardly who developed Nemisis so that's why it has got its roar. Loving the videos shame about operations x

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Thank you for watching and for the info! I forgot that Dragon Khan was designed by John Wardley knew this from watching Theme Park Worldwides videos it obviously slipped my mind. We will definitely be back to PA at some point so will hopefully get a ride on it then 🤞🏻

[@Luukplays-gy1mq]

Hey you guys are in portatentura world Im game back of slagharen YEEHAA yestoday it wasmso much fun I 2 jackpot on crossy world And i got 8 prizers on the the arcade I got 4 color ghost and pacman new mario cup a fire flower plush and a woody keycang I was in the ride with my sister swimming go down the big slide all by my self and the little slide And i was a great sleep 4 time and thats all of them

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

WOW! Sounds like you’ve had an amazing time ☺️ Thank you for watching ☺️

[@coastingwiththejoneses]

The theming looks incredible, shame about operations, also the amount of water that soaked you... 😅

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Thanks for watching guys 🙏It is a lovely park to visit. We will most certainly go back perhaps not in the peak of summer though... At least not whilst the ops are like they are!

[@OxtonSWA]

I went to Salou 4 years on the trot on holiday during the early 2000s and went to the park every 2nd day so I have been there a lot of times. Like you I am a theme park fan so I went back there for the first time for a weekend in 16 years in September 22 and I couldn`t believe how badly run it was. Like you I got Express on my second day having only got on 6 rides without it on my first. Definitely got the impression that operations are deliberately slowed down to cause long queues so more people buy Express of which they sell unlimited numbers. This has been mentioned by a lot of Theme Park bloggers and they are all of the same opinion. IMO it`s a rip off and I`ll be swerving this park until the situation changes I`m afraid. I`ll stick to Europa Park, Phantasialand, Energylandia etc in the future. Its a shame really as it is a beautiful, well laid out park

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Thank you for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. It really is such a shame how poor the operations are at PortAventura as like you say it is a beautiful park with some fantastic world class rides and attractions. It does seem that there is no limit to the amount of Express they will sell. We witnessed them completely filling trains full of express too meaning the main queue just doesn't move at all. Madness! We still had a lot of fun despite all of this but will not return in peak summer months again unless it significantly improves!

[@TheNuke331]

Back from Italy and I'm doing battle galleons at towers on Monday the 26th of August 2024 so if anyone is at towers tomorrow feel free to join me and my dad.

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Thank you so much for watching and hope you had a great time in Italy! Good luck with the Battle Galleons challenge!

[@coaster_dad]

It's such a frustrating park, so much potential, great rides etc. But the ops are shocking and that scenario with your express is unacceptable!

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

Thanks for watching mate and for your continued support! It means a lot to us 😊 Very frustrating at times with the terrible ops and the overselling of express etc. If they could fix all of that it would be incredible. Such a beautiful park with some world class attractions!

[@vicoverdao2010]

How did you record in shambhala? did you have a permission?

[@BenandHolliesTPA]

I just filmed using my Go Pro wrist strap. The staff didn’t say anything. I’ll be honest, they were dispatching trains with people just holding their phones in their hand which I was really surprised about.
