The whole Family had a great time. We have a son and daughter, ages one and four, and there was…read moreplenty for them to do in the park. We live in Wiesbaden so the drive is fairly quick and there is plenty of parking. The lines are fairly short, particularly in the morning. The day that we went was fairly overcast, So that may have kept some people from showing up. We had lunch there which was reasonably priced and delicious. The park isn't as overbearing on safety like places are in the United States, which was concerning for my wife but I enjoyed it. We look forward to going again!

I believe this park is intended for kids between the ages of 3 and 12. Our kids are almost 2 and 5…read moreand it was perfect. Tickets prices are based on height in cm., and can easily be purchased online. Kids under 100 cm are free. Americans beware, German liability laws are much different, and it's very much "participate at your own risk" park wide. That said, as long as you're exercising smart parenting practices, its pretty awesome! For instance, you can literally control some of the rides as a parent. Many low intensity rides have no staff supervision - you on and off-board whenever the next empty cart rolls up. There's a wide variety of things to do from ball pits to epic slides, a trampoline park, small roller-coaster, petting zoo, legit log ride, and numerous carnival-style-dizzying rides. The food was excellent: high end cafeteria style schnitzel/wurst/burger/fries, along with coffee baristas, flammkuchen, and candy/cotton candy/gelato/popcorn stands. We parents and the kids had a blast. Strongly recommend for parents and kids under 12.

It brings together hundreds of stalls where you can play carnival games, enjoy varieties of food (German classics such as Bratwurst and Currywurst, crépes, noodles, waffles and the usual delicious sweets). You'll even find a Bavarian beer hall to help you prep for Oktoberfest. There's a tonne of fun to be had with the many rides as well, ranging from several "house of horrors" to dodgem cars to spinning rides, shooting rides, roller coasters and the carnival classic strap-people-in-then-throw-them-around-and-spin-up-in-the-air craziness. All-in-all a great time for everyone! Weekends are typically crowded, as is the final evening with the fireworks show at 10pm. If you come for the final day (Tuesday), you'll enjoy some great bargains at the dutch-style plant auctions (pick up a bunch of house plants for your entire apartment for just a handful of Euro!). Entrance is free - just pay per ride (typically €2 - €7,50).

Though the roller coasters are top notch. Mamba is aweeeeeeeweeeeeweeeesome. And don't rule out Colorado Adventure (train roller coaster) the turns and the gravity spins are top knotch. The shows are interesting. The sport show is cool with some nice stunts (the do this light show that I still can't understand why....Germans!). The Ice Dance show is really good too. They do some interesting things on a tiny ice rink. The fun house is truely thought provoking, They did a lot of work on it and it has some interesting parts. We didn't get to see the China Acrobatic show...they were setting it up while we were leaving to go eat. Food is okay, we ate at the Tapas restaurant. Not really worth it, and they don't serve Tapas! Just main dishes. We ate at the buffet in the restaurant. Interesting mix, got to try some different meats (kangaroo, rabbit, zebra). Slightly expensive, but tasty stuffs and great atmosphere. To get to the hotel buffet you have to leave the park and walk around the outside and then enter the hotel, then go through the lobby to go outside. Definitely will be going back.

Phantasialand remains a great theme park. We had been 4-5 years ago and enjoyed it again. Yes, it…read moreis clean and extremely well organised. But most of all the variety is amazing. Organised in themed areas with its own food styles, there are big rides, water rides, family rides (check out the VR bat coaster), but also great shows. Nubia was excellent. Well worth the visit for the day.

Disappointing would be an understatement. We decided to visit this park on a sunny mid-November…read moreSunday. I checked to make sure they're still open during Winter and sure enough it said 10:00-16:00 with the Birds of Prey show happening at 15:00 on weekends. I was well aware that the rides, snack stands, and other atractions would be closed but we went only to see the animals. When we got to the entrance at 14:30 I even asked one more time to make sure the bird show was still on for 15:00 and the cashier rudely told me there was no reason why it wouldn't take place. The park itself is not very nice compared to others we've been to like Potzberg. Especially the building with the meerkats is completely run down and I feel sorry for the few animals they have since there is obviously no effort to make the enclosures comfortable or interesting for them. We saw two meerkats cuddling together and shivering because they were so cold. We really looked forward to seeing the bears but the whole area was taped off with signs that the bears are already in hibernation. Well, they are actually not. We could see each of the three bears from a distance locked in 3m x 3m steel cages with concrete floors, banging on the doors because they wanted to get out. Oh, and guess what? The bird show never happened. There were about 25 people waiting but nobody ever showed up. No explanation, no apologies...simply nobody showed up. So we left, feeling sad for the animals there and ripped-off because we paid full price for a whole lot of nothing. We definitely won't ever go back, not even in the summer.
