There is really alot to do for all ages, it is not just for children. Older people can also enjoy most of the rides since all the attractions are based on old fairytales.

the walk around the fairy-tale village has only one path and can take upto and over an hour to complete, there is no where to eat or drink along this route and no shortcuts to get out... be warned

It's really for all ages and beats the Disney Paris experience hands down. It'll give you nice long lasting memories; you will want to go back your entire life! Granted; best when it's not too crowded.

One of the two parks in The Netherlands with nice rollercoasters. Also the Fairy Tale Forrest is cool. When it's crowded the wait can become a bit long, so try an watch out for days that are not too busy.

Been coming for years and never tire of it. This year we've booked to stay in the holiday village. Beats eurodisney hands down.

Went with my wife and was pleasantly surprised by the size and beauty of the park. At first I thought it would be too "kiddie" but there is a wide array of attractions for the whole family. My favorite is "Joris en de draak", a fast and wild coaster. I'm uses to American sized queue lines and was glad that... More

We visited this park at the end of April when the weather wasn't fantastic but this did not put us off. We hit the big rides first and the coasters are definitely on par with some of the theme parks in the UK. We then focused on doing things more suitable for my 2 yr old such as the sprokjesbos....

Having recently been to many American theme parks in Orlando and not knowing a thing about European theme parks, Efteling blew us away! The level of detail, the sheer scope and size of the rides/areas/parks and landscaping - amazing!! We got there around 1 and the park shuts her down around 6 and we barely saw everything let alone go... More

It is a huge park. Neat, clean and there is something for everyone. As a parent to young kid i was really happy to see my kid enjoying every bit of it. You are carried to a fairy tale land and see characters performing. Loved the way the whole place is set. Serval rides are available for all kind of... More
