Three Of The most-enjoyable Theme Parks In Europe

Theme parks have suffered a lot recently attributed to the financial situation a lot people have made the decision to stay away and keep their money rather than be careless and shell out wild sums of cash on a day out. Nevertheless theme parks and days out are now making a comeback as the economic climate is gradually improving and summer is just round the corner. Also with the boost of discount websites that offer days out with large discounts many more families are now in a position to appreciate theme parks and attractions free of the large cost associated to them.

So if you’re considering a family outing soon make sure you have a look at these fine 3 theme parks based in Europe:

Disneyland, Paris - Disneyland Paris unveiled its gates on the 12th April 1992 and for a park that is nearly 20 years old it is without doubt the most celebrated theme park in all of Europe. With nearly 13 million visitors each year and roughly 50,000 customers passing through its entrances each day, Disneyland Paris has in its grounds some 5,200 hotel rooms and a total of 29 restaurants. With such high numbers of vacationers and visitors going to the park it’s no wonder that it takes 12,000 employees to look after everyone and Disney even have their own Disney University to train possible employees.

With such a professional team it’s no surprise that they offer such a professional service that incorporates a total of 55 attractions and a total of 36 rides such as the notorious Pirates of the Caribbean and Alice in Wonderland attractions. Thegood thing about Disneyland is that it is as appropriate for adults as it is for children so don’t be taken aback if you see just as many grownups as children when you drop by.

PortAventura, Salou, Spain - A lot people wouldn’t have been told about PortAventura as it is overshadowed by Disneyland but that doesn’t lead to to say it isn’t a great theme park to visit. The benefit of PortAventura is that it lies on the Costa Daurada or ‘Golden Coast’ in Spanish. This means it’s not only a theme park but also a sought-after tourist desired destination so once you’ve completed visiting the park you can enjoy the lovely beaches and bars that the nearby region has to supply.

For this cause alone it ranks in our principal three theme parks in Europe as instead of exclusively going to the theme park you have the fortune to explore the marvelous holiday resorts that are on offer which makes it really feel like a holiday rather than just a trip to a theme park. The theme park itself has an adequate amount of distractions to keep you busy with a total of 30 rides including 6 roller coasters and 3 water rides all of which you get to experience underneath the Spanish sun.

Alton Towers, Staffordshire, UK - Perhaps the greatest popular theme park in the UK but with good reason too, Alton Towers has some of the most exhilarant rides within Europe. Rides which include Nemesis which was the first inverted roller coaster in Europe and Oblivion which was the world’s premier vertical drop roller coaster help publicize the Alton Towers label.

As well as boasting well-known attractions, Alton Towers has a total of 29 rides in total which include 8 roller coasters and 5 water rides. Alton Towers also keeps modernizing and changing its rides so that they stay constantly fresh and modernized. Included within the terrain is the Alton Towers Spa that provides a range of spa therapies, a water park and plenty of themed hotels and bars of course.
