| TPR Notes |
|
Sitting on the edge of Lake Garda, Gardaland is one of Europes most visited theme parks. While the park might not have the most defined themed areas, many rides are extensively themed and the park is well maintained.
Additions of Raptor and Oblivion improved the coaster line-up. Certain areas of the parks are well shaded, a welcome respite during Italian summers, but water rides will not provide much relief from the heat. The park excels with its indoor-ride offerings, even though the entrance to iCorsari (a dark ride) is difficult to find. Overall operations are sporadic with some employees working on "Italian" time.
Many of the rides in the childrens area can be enjoyed by the whole family, and food is very good and reasonably priced. | |
