@@CompassChronicleTravels Make sure to go outside of the dutch holidays, that reduces your waiting times by 10x. Just been there the week after you, and to give some numbers: droomvlucht was 0-5min, we skipped Symbolica several times because waiting time was too much (15min) etc ;) and: make sure to include Vliegende Hollander (flying dutchman) - the queue itself is already fantastic! Python is a classic, but I like 'Joris & De Draak' better. Oh, yes: blue / red both can win. BTW: you ended your trip where Efteling started.

De Efteling was created based on the work of Anton Pieck, a popular artist and illustrator at the time, who has a distinct romantic/nostalgic style with a special eye for the old and time-worn. He designed the fairytale forest, and his work continues to guide the designs of the newer rides as they all have to roughly conform to the same style. Walking in de Efteling in supposed to feel like you are walking into one of his illustrations; a cobwebbed and candle-lit pastoral world where folk history and fantasy meet. The beauty of de Efteling is the degree to which they have always stayed committed to this vision down to the smallest detail.
@CompassChronicleTravels
@CompassChronicleTravels Год назад
Oh wow! What a beautiful explanation of the parks background and intention. It is such a beautifully artistic style and I would say they have very much succeeded and THEN some. We absolutely fell in love with the entire feel of Efteling, aside from even the quality of the rides it houses. Can’t wait for our next visit! 💕

Efteling in the dark is always something special. From about late October, it will be dark around 6 p.m., so you can see the water show in it's full splendor. Also, the fairy tale forest is nicely lit after dark. The park is open every day of the year so make the best use of that. Just try to stay outside weekends and holidays.

Oooo didn’t even think about how lovely the fairytale forest would be at dark but yes!! We can imagine that is magical too! We will definitely go back later in the year too and see it that way! And we hear you on the holidays…such a smart tip! Those days are always hectic at parks!

Very great video! Growing up close to Efteling meant going each year once or twice at least, and now that I'm older and visit more parks most feel underwhelming compared to Efteling 😅 Almost all attractions have such beautiful fairytales behind them. Even the rollercoasters like Joris en de Draak, for which the tale goes that there was a big dragon close to a village that ate a sheep everyday. On some day, the sheeps were all eaten and the dragon started eating young girls from the village. The king of the village did a lottery every night to decide which girl should be eaten, until the day the lottery picked the name of his own daughter. That's when he decided to ask people in the village to conquer the dragon. One tried it with fire, one with water. In the end, Joris managed to kill the dragon with wisdom.

It was nice that you found the "Sprookjesbos"at the end of the day. Next time try to go for the older parts of the park that to my idea are still the best. When it was build in the 1950's, labour was relatively cheap, so the amount of detail is insane. It is the only theme park, I never have gotten bored with and enjoy returning to.

i can relate to Romy, watching this as a Dutch person, enjoying people finding and/or discovering the efteling is amazing. Enjoyed your discover videos and im actually quite impressed you managed to find something transelations to English, even tho Efteling actually is one of the few parcs (besides disney) that also uses english transelations normally. Unfortunatly your visit is pretty much right in the "maintenace season" of the parc, unfortunatly! I absolutely enjoyed it here and hope you visit other parks in our country...altough they are not anywhere near what the efteling is! Also; Spookybos? - Hilarious lmao! actually transelates to Fairy-tale forest Some intresting facts; The dustbins are called "Holle bolle Gijs " which roughly transelates to Big ol fast Gijs (bit akward really)... but its a great invention on which Gijs repeatedly says "papier hier" which means "paper here". teaches childern to dispose their waste at Gijs rather then throwing it in the parc, making it clean. Its a big invention made by the parc to remain as green as what the efteling is trying to be. Lots of greenery, and A LOT of regulations on what the parc is allowed to do. They have to maintain a percentage of the parc nature and is not allowed to decrease. For rough example; lets say the parc has 40% of nature and 60% of buildings. Efteling is not allowed to build more than 60% if that means the 40% of nature is taken away. If they are to build above the limit they will have to remove pieces of the parc and transform it to a nature part. Pretty interesting really.. Netherlands also has a building height ban which means they have to request a lot of permits if they were to build alot of stuff up. Pretty sure parc like phantasialand also have these restrictions.

Hahaha we knew we had to be saying that word absolutely terribly 🤣🤣🤣. One of these days we will get it! Haha. What a clever idea on the bins for the kids! And it’s funny you say that about the regulations because we had heard of that but got confused whether it was Phantasialand or Efteling and decided it was Phantasialand. Makes sense now why we were uncertain since they have similar regulations! Can’t wait to go back and thank you for the lovely info!

Not as nice styled as Efteling or Phantasiland, far from it, but the roller coasters seems intense too. Maybe the french speaking sutff members may be unfriendly, if you do not speak much french or poperly, but whatever. For the case you never heared of Asterix, it is a french comic figure. It is known world wide, but very popular here in Europe. Often unknown in USA.

If you have the change, look up / visit the Winter Efteling; the entire park get's themed in a winter-theme (think Christmas market), and you'll have the ability to enjoy the water show, in the dark, at 6pm, because it gets dark so early.

@@CompassChronicleTravels that it feels like a park is also correct. The Efteling is still a nature park. They can only build a certain amount of the grounds.

So it really is a themepark unlike any other.

We keep hearing that! We are so bummed we didn’t go for it. It got so cold and windy later in the day and I was already freezing so we opted out because we weren’t sure on the splash. Everyone has been saying it’s nearly nothing though so we have been kicking ourselves! We got season passes though so we will be back to vlog it soon! 💕

Fun fact: It's said that Walt Disney himself came to the Efteling for inspiration for the parc in California. It's never confirmed so it's a rumor. But it is a big one as even Ted Crowell is known for believing it. Their are no witnesses or pictures of the visit but it is not unbelievable as Walt Disney has in fact been in Denmark for inspiration for his parc.

I normally don’t go to non-Disney parks because I like dark rides and most non-Disney parks only have 1 or 2 dark rides (sometimes even 0), but it seems like Efteling has a pretty good amount of dark rides.
@CompassChronicleTravels
@CompassChronicleTravels Год назад
Totally get that! I’m a big dark ride fan as well! We have been to a couple parks since being in Europe that have had a solid amount. We love coasters too, but I’m especially a sucker for the dark rides. The dark rides Efteling has are some of the best we’ve ever done-absolutely top notch! Well worth doing!

If you ever come close to the Netherlands make sure to spend 2 days in Efteling just take youre time and explore. I'm not saying the dark rides are better then the new stuff in the disneyparks but its defently on par or better then the older stuff. Besides its a lovely park the onl;y down side is that the park doesn't really have that great a line up of really thrill attreactions its defently family oriented. But if you like darkrides its the number one spot in Europe.

Hi guys!!! You once mentioned you have some trouble decifering German words in general and menus in particular.

@@CompassChronicleTravels Don't fall for this. You visited many of the undisputed highlights of the park (Fata Morgana, Droomvlucht, the fairytale forest, Baron 1898, Joris...) Some might argue about Vogel Rok or Symbolica, but those are also great in my view. So the "missed 90%" is just reaction bait. Of course there are are more things to see, but I don't think there are complete misses where I would tell everyone to steer clear, it mostly depends on ones own interests, so there is still lots to discover in your next visits.
