Tips and Tricks for Europa Park:
We would highly suggest downloading the Europa Park app. In the app, you can find the map of the Park and it’s super helpful in navigating from one theme to another. There’s no additional cost for the Virtual line. You can also use the app to book your virtual line for different rides.
There are 6 main rides that are on the fast track. We have added our tickets to the app and we were able to book the time slot with the app.
If you are more than one person and want to book the ride at the same time - Then, It’s highly recommended to add the ticket to one phone app in this way you will be able to book the same time slot for all the people. If you are booking it with two different mobiles, you might get different time slots even if you book at the same time.
You must book the slot in the morning for your fast track, sometimes due to the crowd it might be possible that you won’t get the free slot. In this situation, you have to wait in a long queue. You can only book one Ride at a time, and once the ticket checker scans your Virtual Line code. Then you are able to book another ride. You can also find the details of different live shows in the app as well.

Europa Park Trip:
Europa Park is so huge. It’s impossible to cover all the main attractions in a day. We would suggest at least spending two entire days in the Park and exploring and enjoying the adventure and madness of the attraction in different themes of Europa Park.
The Park has 18 different themes based on different European countries. From the main entrance, you enter into Germany theme first and experience mini Germany covering famous German Castle, black forest, mini Berlin Alexander Platz, etc.
Some of the themes are more for family fun or kids while some zones have more adventure rides for the adults. The German theme has more attractions for the families and kids but you can always re-live the kid in yourself and enjoy the theme rides in all zones.
It’s very hard to conclude which one is our favourite theme as every theme has such a unique vibe and different experience but the most beautiful themes are France, Italy, Greece, and Scandinavia as these have lovely picturesque spots which give a feel that you are literally roaming there.
For the small kids, we would say England, Ireland, Germany, Luxemburg, and Grimm's Enchanted Forest are the main themes but in all other themes, you can also find lots of kid's adventure.
For adults or adventure lovers like us, France, Greece, and Iceland themes are the must-place to go as they have some crazy rollercoasters and fun coasters.
The Russian, Austria, Switzerland, and Scandinavian themes have a mixed ride for both adults and kids while the Italian theme focuses more on beautiful Italian Architecture and Italian cuisine.
For family fun, Adventureland has different rides to explore the wildness of Africa and cruise in the lake.
The Holland theme also focuses on kids adventure but this zone has a mind-blowing Pirates of Batavia theme ride. The Spanish theme is famous for its live shows and kids' activities.
The Portugal theme is also very lovely and the Atlantica SuperSplash which is a water roller coaster is the main highlight of the theme.
The Europa Park also has a train, Mono train, and EP Express which takes you on the round trip of the park and also stops in different themes.
The VR adventure in France and Austria is a must-experience in the park.
Overall, all theme has some activities for kids and adults. Each theme has 3-4 different theme restaurants or cafes serving local food and shops for buying some memorable souvenirs from your trip to Europa Park.
Each zone also has some theme rides and live performances or shows. You can always check the timings of the shows on the Europa Park app. In two days, it was nearly impossible to watch every show or visit all the restaurants but you can always choose according to your preferences.
Suggestion:
We would highly recommend at least spending 2 days in Europa Park, and you can also visit the park during the Halloween season and enjoy the Pumpkins and Halloween Parade or also enjoy the winter theme in Europa Park.
