this channel and sanbrooke adventures have lifted my expectations for the future of this channels

[@reganperella7134]

fantastic two channels ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤my friend passed away in a motorcycle accident and the way you guys helped me become a coaster and waterpark visitor again

[@Gunner14coasters]

Can’t believe they managed to do all this in under a year!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

They’ve done a great job!

[@Watterpolo]

May be it was planed anyway and they made it earlier. But yes i also not expected them to do this so fast.

[@markbryan8262]

I’m so happy Europa park rebuilt alpenexpress

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s amazing what they have done with the area!

[@1982pmc]

How did they build this in 1 year but DLP takes 5 years for a frozen boat ride clone! This puts Disney to shame

[@milanverhulst6578]

Disney is a shame anyway in my opinion 😅

[@demonoid7469]

Its because Disney does not have money anymore and their construction projects take YEARS to complete...compared to other companies that have actual money to spend.

[@solskjaer1195]

​@@demonoid7469They have plenty of money. Far deeper pockets than Mack Family. They just choose to take their customers for granted.

[@michaelcary7971]

Don’t forget, in Paris it’s new land expansion so it takes longer and they are building infrastructure for more expansion further in the future. Also during all this they had an entire hotel refurb and the current refurb of the majority of Disney village. They also have had to replace all the entrance flooring and the majority of the fantasyland flooring. Overall it’s a tonne of work and that’s why it’s taking longer than you’d expect. Basically my point is they are doing tonnes of other stuff ontop of frozen land

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

They have done a great job!

[@darkridearts]

Oh the revamped flume and coaster areas are absolutely charming.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Love it!

[@coastermadab]

This is absolutely gorgeous. And done in less than A YEAR. Just incredible.

Thank you!

[@ChloeClements34]

It looks lovely and great fun and the whole area looks great but....i miss the atmosphere and magical vibe of the diamond mine and kind of shame never rebuilt it. Still you can tell it was a redesigned with love. Also love C for preaching the bargains!

[@deloron8813]

it's way worse than it was before in my opinion. The cave was essential and without it it's nowhere near the same

[@iodiimelita7999]

​@@deloron8813i prefer it now a lot more, before it been lame, now it looks amazing.

[@user-ve7hn2dh8h]

​@@iodiimelita7999literally nobody thinks it's better than before and I've read hundreds of comments.. It's so obviously worse that I don't think you're serious.. Probably troling

[@flaffstar_99]

Everyone who says the old cave was better is just mostly nostalgic. The old trail was magical - yes - but so much lower in quality and far less interesting. The old diamond mine never had lots of crowds. And they kept the heart of the old area, the gift shop with the tunnel. If the smell will come back as well this area is far superior. But I have to agree that the log flume has far less to see. At least right now, maybe they will add more theming.

[@silklora2640]

They were not allowed to rebuild it. Regulations have changed

[@mattman237]

Outstanding job Europa Park.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Amazing!

They certainly need to know how to theme parks the rides look brilliant and all the theming are amazing x

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

The theming is excellent!

[@joeeeee256]

I love what they did. It's amazing how much they achieved! I think they could improve: 1) Water from the log flume now spills over the trough below onto what _used_ to be the fast strobe tunnel section on the Alpenexpress, I've seen this happen a couple times already 2) The first helix looks very empty, hopefully over the next couple weeks they can add more shade and greenery - the area used to feel very secret and lush before, though at least the foliage will grow naturally over time. I do think the landscaping round that bit could be improved though, e.g. before the train used to be "closer to the ground" because the terrain was higher towards the track Looking forward to seeing what they do over the next 2 weeks and further :)

It’s impressive how they’ve built all this in a year after such a fire. I like what they’ve done but definitely miss the diamond mine too.

[@mrblack5599]

I love 2 lap coasters. Rushing through the station is quite atmospheric and cheering makes it good fun 👍. Also I have to say the car design with shaped seats and adjustable lap bars is far better for taking kids on with you. Looks great!

They are great!

[@kathrynthomas6138]

This place looks awesome! Great vlog you lovely two!

[@AdrenalineRush236]

To be honest, this kind of puts Chessington to shame. They’ve had an SBNO powered coaster for nearly 3 years and Europa have replaced theirs in less than one!

[@Gunner14coasters]

It’s Merlin so no surprises 😅

[@rfastravers8841]

That's because Mack is both the owner of the park and manufacturer of the coaster.

[@AdrenalineRush236]

@@rfastravers8841 They still have to pay for the steel used to manufacture the coaster! Also, a Mack powered coaster with a very short layout like scorpion express is not very expensive

If there's another fire in a couple of years, I'm gonna start getting suspicious! 🤨😂 Seriously, this looks great! I love letting the content build-up and binge-watching. I just found out about the American trip. I watched the new Cedar Coaster, vlog. But I'm checking out all of these foreign (for me 🇺🇸) parks first. I love seeing parks that aren't dominated by IPs. Or ones that aren’t popular in America.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you!

[@coolchick7197]

The adventure trail looks like fun!! I’d definately climb up the more fun way than stairs!!

I'm going this weekend and didn't think this would be open! Can't wait to see it all.

The interaction in the thumbnail is like a better version of Congo RR and the Runaway Minetrain. Love how beautiful the atmosphere is, hope I can go in the future! When you get back to Britain are you going to the Pleasure Beach? No offense to them, but its currently in a bad state and if its downfall does soon unfortunately occur, id suggest going (ive taken note from its opening day) . Also excited to see more Alton Towers updates. Did you not get to see the Nemesis VIP Event? 😅

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s a beautiful park! We didn’t go to the Nemesis event as we have done everything on offer at the event in the past!

[@princess_sarina_aria_elysia]

I looked up POVs of the old alpen express and I hope theming on the scale of the indoor diamond mine is still in the plans for the proper opening. I understand if the show building was a fire hazard but hopefully they can still put some smaller little indoor theming inside some of those tunnels

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

The old diamond mine was beautiful!

I went to Europa Park twice last year after the fire, the first time only three days after, and have never been on these two rides. I`m going next week for 3 days and was disappointed when they announced the re-opening date. Now they are having a "soft opening" hopefully I will get to ride them now.

Haha, that's what I'm starting to think. Multiple times in the same park, big upgrades to attractions quickly after it each time. They must get some good insurance payouts.

hmm adn two fires in the years span this park had is wired and doesnt make sense for a major park to have in america this park would have been closed for months to be checked and ingested

Since I'm very sceptical on Therme, I'm going to predict it won't ever be built, and it will remain a blank plot of land for years, and in 2031, i will go to the location to see if my prediction of Therme manchester never being built has come true If i ever run into Therme themselves, i will tell them "Therme, you lied to us! You said you were going to give Manchester a new waterpark, then you broke your promises and never built it! The UK needs better than that!"

[@history_leisure]

The new seating area looking into the coaster and log flume reminds me of a similar seating area themed into Valravn at Cedar Point. Its nice, but still leaves me with questions in how they fit in with the neighboring area(s). Like does it negatively effect the Spain area having that view into that section of the rides since its fairly alpine compared to the more Andalusian vibe of the Spain area, or do the kinetics and extra viewing angle cancel out the clash of themes?

[@Gunner14coasters]

It’s not finished tbf
