tactic

I’ve never been able to decipher what jigsaw is saying when in the 2nd car. There are always screams and the sound of the air cannon below that just make it impossible to hear in my opinion.

I have seen them counting down the inferno dispatches, going ‘next train leave in 30s’ then counting down, but I think it depends on the operator. Haven’t seen it this season but the last 2 it’s definitely happened to me on multiple occasions.

Is the plan still to only do one side of the beach? I feel half doing the area will just leave it feeling a bit out of place (similar to how Galactica feels in FV currently but on a smaller scale of course) and seems like almost a waste of a good idea.

Stealth Thrill 2 anyone?

It seems to roll back more oftern at the start of the season, is there a reason for this? I remember the passholder day a couple of years ago where it rolled back twice that morning.

I would love to see the gift shop back as it's one of the strongest parts of the experience in my opinnion. However, I am also not holding out much hope that we'll see it back; 2 extra staff members/actors at least (person to jumpscare you and the guide who tells you to stop and wait in the shop) are requred for the scene, so I'd assume these would be cut.

I assume that means an extension of the date that the council will review it? If so looks like the beach is just going to be sitting there this year. It's a real shame that Thorpe's developments keep getting held back like this, but then I guess there's nothing they can really do if the council is so busy with other issues.

Right ok let me have a go Swarm ST 0 (if you ride you get caught by the aliens and will be got...?) Rush ST 1 Playground ST Unlimited (you can enter from anywhere?) Please tell me I got it right?????

So in theory this could possibly indicate some ground testing occuring in the area for a new coaster or flat ride behind swarm island and on the surrounding area??

Where is the old Treasure Island plot in comparision to the rest of the park? It's probably just for regular maintainence or something similar but I'm now curious to where Thorpe's new potential investment could be. (the closed season dellusion has 100% hit me, its defo just like some dull work not a new coaster)

Just coming back to this thread now having booked the interrail passes for my group last night! I'm getting quite excited now! Does anyone have information on the shuttle bus that runs from Lyon to Walibi Rhone-Alpes? The walibi.fr website says that there is one that runs Tuesday-Thursday, but when I press on the booking section it says there are no tickets avaliable for whatever day I press. I've also found a tripadvisor page for the bus company that runs the shuttle but the link on their website takes me to the same booking one that the Walibi site takes me to (which looks like it hasn't been updated since the parks halloween event). Also, do any of you on here know anything about the GuestHouse Hotel in Kaatsheuvel for when we're going to Efteling. I've been looking at their BunkHouse Room 4 + Efteling Package Large deal (3 nights in a 4 person room as well as 2 days Efteling entry included) for the dates we're going to be there and it's cheaper than any other near by accomodation with the Guesthotel price of £69 a night per person also including the 2 theme park tickets per person with all the other local accomodation doesn't include. I'm always slightly sceptical of almost too good deals like this seems to be so was wondering if anyone has stayed there and can let me know if there is maybe some kind of catch that comes with all of it?

A quick google told me that it does, but then don't trust everything google says. I'll defo double check that now!

Hi all! After discussing the plans through again with my mates we have come up with a revised plan. We have tried to keep days with very little traveling to allow us to rest for the majority of the day and have also chosen to do multiple days at some theme parks. What does everyone here think of this new version of the plan? Day 1: Eurostar to Paris Day in Paris AirB&B/hostel in Paris Day 2: Paris AirB&B/Hostel to Park Astrix (1.15 hours by bus) Parc Astrix Park Astrix to Paris AirB&B/Hostel Same AirB&B/Hostel (leave bags there) Day 3: Paris to Lyon (2 hours) Afternoon/evening in Lyon AirB&B/hostel in Lyon Day 4: Lyon to Walibi Rhone-Alpes (shuttle bus service Tuesday-Thursday) Walibi Rhone-Alpes Walibi Rhone-Alpes to Lyon Same AirB&B/Hostel (leave bags there) Day 5: Lyon to Rust (6.5 hours) Evening in Rust AirB&B/hostel in Rust Day 6: Rust to Europa Park (walk) Europa Park day 1 Same AirB&B/hostel in Rust (leave bags there) Day 7: Europa Park day 2 Same AirB&B/hostel in Rust (leave bags there) Day 8: Rust to Cologne (5 hours) Afternoon/evening in Cologne AirB&B/hostel in Cologne Day 9: Cologne to Phantasialand (1 hour) Phantasialand Day 1 Same AirB&B/hostel in Cologne (leave bags there) Day 10: Phantasialand Day 2 Same AirB&B/hostel in Cologne (leave bags there) Day 11: Cologne to Essen (1 hour) Day in Essen AirB&B/hostel in Essen Day 12: Essen to Movie Park Germany (30 mins) Movie Park Germany Same AirB&B/hostel in Essen (leave bags there) Day 13: Essen to Amsterdam (3.5 hours) Afternoon/evening in Amersterdam AirB&B/hostel in Amsterdam Day 14: Amsterdam to Walibi Holland (2.5 hours) Walibi Holland Same AirB&B/hostel in Amsterdam (leave bags there) Day 15: Amsterdam to Tilburg (2 hours) Afternoon/evening in Tilburg (music scene????)

Cool, thanks for the tips! I'll make Poland and Spain and maybe like the Scandinavian parks (Liseberg etc.) all seperate trips in the future allowing for this summer to be more relaxed and managable. When doing multiple days at the same park what would the suggestion be for accomodation. I would assume the best idea would be to stay in a cheap AirB&B or something nearby rather than staying at the hotel at the theme park, but then at somewhere like Europa for example, would the hotel be part of the experience that I don't want to miss out on even if it costs a lot more?

Ok, that definitely looks like a fun plan! Thank you for the help. Is there one park there you would maybe suggest skipping so that we could potentially go to Energylandia for one or two days instead, as I really want to go there as well as I’ve been told that Krakow (and Auschwitz if we are up for it) are places that are 100% worth visiting. Do you think that would be a good idea to add on to this trip as a replacement for something else, or maybe make Poland another trip in the future?
