The Belgian coasterclub "Rollercoaster friends" planned a bus-trip to paris at the last weekend of the Belgian Easter Holidays. I visited Paris 3 times already before, but except for Disneyland I never get to see a park there. This weekend we would visit 2 parks that were new for me and the largest fair of Paris. First up: Jardin D'acclimitation.
This baby had to wait another day!
Yay!
A good tip for everyone who plans a trip to the Jardin: Don't. It is a cute and nice park, but it is just extremely unbelievable expensive. Entrance price is almost 30 euro's, which already is over the top, but it really only is entrance. You have to pay for every single ride to!
The park was bussy when we arrived, but since the rides weren't free, there were no long lines.
We got 5 ride tickets from the organizers, just enough to ride all the coaster and one other ride.
There are three "real" coasters in Jardin, and the pink Custom Reverchon spinner was the worst. It didn't spin like the big ones, it didn't had a large drop... Maybe we just had a bad ride. Another point of criticism: to ride "Les Papillions d'Alice", you had to pay 2 ride tickets instead of one. When you count it out, you have to pay over 5 euro to ride this kiddiespinning!
The Soquet (or as we like to call it: suckit) powered coaster easily was the best coaster of the Jardin. Smooth, fast enough and a tunnel that came as a surprise in terms of Airtime. Ignace <3 Soquet.
Les Tacots wasn't my first powered coaster from the French coaster builders. On the Belgian Fair's, we have a small but fast powered coaster filled with airtime, called "Tokyo Express".
Last credit was "Lifthill: the ride". Seriously, I don't believe their is an Arrow Minetrain that comes close to this sillyness. The coaster was like what 300 metres long and had 3 (!) lifthills. The best part of the coaster was the turn between the station and the first lifthill. Still liked it though, a good kiddie ride.
The park looked nice in some places.
The biggest ride of the park was this boat ride. Nothing special actually, but we had to kill some time.
The park had some animals, the biggest one being a bear.
Looks legit
Nevermind
Jardin D'acclimatation: I'm glad I been there, I will never go again. Thanks for reading .
