Is great for holidays My kids really really really really really liked it. They said they want to go again and make you I have an idea. They not like you to go again. But we are going next week. Because I love love love love love love love love love love the food. Really really loves the Kebab Pizza was nice and we actually got a tree that has a face on it.
Boyfriend booked ticket to surprise me. Quite a nice place, very romantic vibe. Just maybe it's more for kids not for me also performance only in Dutch other than that all great!
Great theme park! Loved all the rollercoasters and the magical vibe of the place. Very packed and if you arrive early be ready to wait, a lot! Prices are reasonable for the tickets but food inside the park is very expensive and low quality so better bring everything you need with you from home.
Fairy tale a life! The most amazing park I had ever seen.
Wonderful amusement park with something for everyone in the family. The only thing that dampens the experience is smoking everywhere (even in lines, up to where the line goes indoor). So much smoking I could not ignore it while otherwise enjoying the park.
The Efteling is the best theme park of the Netherlands and one of the best of Europe. It needs no explanation for 5 stars!
While not as hair raising as other amusement parks (Fujiyama for instance), it was a whole lot of fun. The design of the whole park is amazing - every element has something special. The rides are good fun and lots of eating options also. It is crazily busy on weekends though, particularly in summer, so would recommend weekdays if possible.
Fantastic place, like you want to be back into childhood and relive all that emotions of happiness again. Lot of attractions that make nervous for grownups as well! Biggest swinging boat in EU - really tough if you sit on the edge. Last but not least - if you come for the day plan it well upfront on what you want to visit otherwise it's hard and lot of queues so maximum you will manage to see several attractions thanks to waiting time (which sometimes can be 2 hours!!!). Thanks Efteling for great experience and great day back in childhood!
Of course it s a must in Holland but the prices are ridicules! 4 for a bottle of cola! The waiting times on a Wednesday not while holidays, are around 30 minutes, on a Saturday in the vacation they can go up to 3 hours... I advise to take a hotel close by so you can stay longer then 1 day.

Nice park, very well maintained with lots of different ideas and rides. Very good food options and no long waitings for any food or drinks. Only downside is that the rollercoaster rides are all pretty short.
A magical wonderland. My favourite theme park in Europe hands down.
Great for children up to 12 years old with lots of slow rides and tons of fairy tails and magical sights. For young adults and teenagers the park offers less. Some nice roller coasters and a few faster rides, but not enough till fill a days worth unless you're willing to branch into the children's part of the park.
The Efteling is an amazing place to be. You can go as family or with friends. The theme designs are super unique and go through the whole park. You feel back to youth. The waiting times can be checked by a modern app that also includes a park map. You also should go to the carnival!
Snacks are available, everywhere.
Enjoy! (all seasons open)
The most beautiful entertainment park on the Netherlands.
Great amusement park. Clean and with wonderful parks. The staff is very friendly and there are a lot of attractions for every age. If you chose right the waiting times are OK, too.
One of the best amusement parks I've ever been to, and one of the cheapest!
So much to do and explore, we didn't get it all done in a day. One of the highlights of our trip for sure.
A special day, kids loved it. The especially Baron has been very appreciated
Great fun for all ages, enjoyed the rollercoasters, the beautiful scenery, gardens and winter atmosphere
Nice! Terrifying underground rollercoaster but loved it.
Something you can't miss.
Even if you in Amsterdam it is worth the ride - go there.
Very well maintained and very clean. Themes and scenery are impressive!
Most magical and fantastic theme park in the world. Unique.
Wonderful theme park based on fairytales, and aggressive rollercoaster's
I spend my birthday there. It was an amazing day. As it was during the week wait times were not bad at all.
Amazing experience as always. 1st class accommodation, 1st class theme park, 1st staff and brilliant, reasonably priced food
Loveeeeeee this place!!!! Its truly a magical experience. Only thing I was missing was more English explanations for people who dont speak Dutch. Other than that its an amazing place!
Its great but not for very young kids. 4 year old got creeped with all the elf's and la fontaine characters...
I cant find my next boyfriend anywhere ive tried looking for him .... and he waved at me and ive not seen him again , can people please help
I was always very doubtful if I should go, since I am not that into traditional tales, but is just an amazing magical world and amazing gardens even of you are not into Cinderela.
This amusement park is one of the best in the Netherlands. Definitely worth the visit. They have walking routes due to COVID-19, they even make sure there is always enough space between you and the other visitors while queuing.
All the attractions are still open and the evening is closed with a fabulous water show
Nostalgic amusement park! Unfortunate that the rides close at 8PM because there is enough to do for being their the whole day. I recommend arriving around 10 or 11 to make the best out of it!
Fantastic theme park and relatively easy to get to from Amsterdam!
We are spezialized in airport transfers, we bring you to your guesthouse close to the efteling.
Efteling is always a joy to visit.
This is my second visit to Efteling and yet more happy memories have been created.
On both occasions, the park has not been too busy and it was easy to get onto all of the rides with a minimum of wait. I can imagine that it is not so good when the park is busy and the queues are long.
Everything in the park looks to be well maintained and everywhere is kept very clean.
Eating and drinking at Efteling is also easy, there are restaurants and snack bars dotted all around the park and the prices are not really any higher than you would pay in a local restaurant.
Plan your visit before you arrive to make the most of Efteling and DON'T forget where you parked your car !
Most of all just enjoy yourselves.
Amazing theme park, good fun for all the family. Great day out.
Wow! Lots of stuff to see, lots of things to do, lots of happy people!
Efteling is fantastic amusement park.
Rollar coasters are fun but ride time is 2 minutes or maximum 5 minutes.
They have beautiful castles and visuals. Fairy forest has all fairies castles and apart from that they have some fun things in fairy forest.
My advise is go with the flow when you are there. They have map of whole place Almost at all important corners, you should just go and check the shows or activities or rides nearby you and enjoy!
Waiting time is generally very less, you can split your group and waiting time is even shorter. For inside castle activities there is no harm in spilitting your group, for rides you can stick with your group.
Don t miss the indoor rollar coaster- IT IS SO MUCH FUN!!
Thanks to amazing Efteling staff for a fun day!
How a park like that should look and feel like. No comparison to any German parks. Want to visit some place magical? That's the closest you will get.
Beautiful surroundings and fun attractions both for children and adults. Price for everything inside the park is sky high of course, 4 euros for a bottle of water. But the thing dragging it down from 5 stars is the amount of people who didnt follow the distancing rules and employees didnt seem to care or correct. I understand it is hard to talk to adults like they are kids but that is the reality in this situation.
It was massive. I think they have endless rides, castles and many more things of entertainment and enjoyment with friends and family. It is very difficult to explore the whole area in a single day as one has to do lot of walking to reach. Besides all the sign boards and directions are in French only so it was difficult to understand directions specially for the guests from Asian countries like us.It would very nice if they could place indicator s in English also. Besides due rain and weather conditions most of water rides and slides were not operational on the day. Otherwise the staff and all other equipments including safety one we're of hightest class.
Its a beatiful and magic place full of farytail histories and adventure from middle age to recent days
Fantastic place to spend a day or even 2 with the children, they thoroughly enjoyed it. The price was more accessible than Disneyland and this is the place where Disney land got their idea from...
What a great experience would definitely come back some day!
Nice, but outdated. Good for families with kids and also for a day with friends, but if you've been there before you saw it all.
Always a good spot for walking and have a good day with or without your child/children.
Was an amazing experience, our board had loads of fun.
Awesome themepark with good rollercoasters and excellent theming. A good day out for the whole family, with rides for the little people and the adventures people.
Cool park. Large and spread out with a medieval fantasy theme. If there late, you can t miss the water show which was fantastic.
Really wonderful time together for the family! Everyone enjoyed, both the 7yo and the little one, 2yo.
It's an amazing place for people from all age groups. Because of the theme park, kids love it.. because of some scary roller coaster rides young people would also love it.
I think it's worth to spend a day in a completely different world.
THE best family and youth attraction park in The Netherlands. Great attractions for families with children and/or grandchildren of all ages. Great rollercoasters for dare-devils of all ages. Enchanting fairy tale forest that portrays most well known fairy tales.
The park is really clean. Employees are friendly and the rides are awesome.
Coming from the UK although many rides had to close sometimes due to extreme weather conditions, we had a really good time. Bonus, we never had to wait in line as there were few people about! My partner and I were concerned it might be too catered for families with young children but that wasn't the case. Although it was advertised in the UK, English wasn't always available on all the rides and shows making it impossible to know what was going on (that was fine but would have been nice). Staff easily spoke in English when they realised and made us feel very welcome. Would go again perhaps in a different season.
A Nice fairytale park with beautiful theming. Queue Times are becoming shorter in addition to a few years ago.
Is always a lot of fun to go to Efteling!! Full of magic!!
Went to Efteling as a child in 1975, returned with my wife 45 years later and was not disappointed, a mixture of great memories and amazing new attractions. If you are in the region and are aged between 5 and 100, you must go here.
Had such a fab time over here. We stayed onsite at Loonsche land as well and went into the park on 4 different days. On the first day, we were told that it was very busy but I found that queues were no more than 30 minutes (a long queue in the UK would be an hour and a half upwards). It has a range of attractions for young and old and the theming around the park is excellent. I also enjoyed the selection of different foods you could get.
Loved this place since I was about 5 yrs old! Still love it!! Much better than Disney!!
Great themepark with awesome rides and an extreme nostalgia inducing sprookjesbos. It's become a lot more expensive since my childhood but I suppose that's the result of inflation and the increasing number of rides being built. Definitely the best theme/attraction park in the Netherlands.
Best theme park in the world. Every detail has been made with the greatest care, all the staff is excellent and there are rides for every age!
The Efteling is a famous dutch amusement park with very unique themes. A great day out for young and old. Plenty of thrills and experiences combined with the most excellent landscaping and maintenance, quite a lot of attention to detail. Many good food venues with affordable prices. Paid daily parking and good access by public transportation.
I had a wonderful time here. This was my first visit to a European amusement park and it set a very high standard. The themeing is top notch, the rides were fun, operations were great! I was worried that since I don't know Dutch, I'd have a problem but everyone spoke English and was very helpful. I hope I can make it back sometime!
Always a pleasure. Still one of my all time favourite theme parks.
The best theme park in Western Europe. Great atmosphere, very well dressed attractions and friendly staff. Often very crowded, but that's the price you pay....
What a wonderful place to go, it is obvious that Disney got a lot from this park. It is absolutely a most. We enjoyed like children!! I Loved!
Great park for both children of all ages and adults with lots of exciting things to do and many rides. I would recommend to come very early and start with the less attractive riders which take less of waiting time and to go on the popular ones later on. Definitely check out if the dates are recommended but not by weather but by the vacations in holland.
People tend to come here often and during or near a holiday lots of school kids sworn the place and makes the lines for the rides especially long.
I also recommend coming here for at least 2 days,1 day is too short in order to see and do everything.
Buy the tickets with the 30 min early arrival and 3 pmeals it is worth it.
Wanderfull place, very recommanded to spare at least a full day from 10am when it is opened till 11pm at weekends. There are attractions for all ages.
I never miss to take the kids to the Efteling everytime we are in the Netherlands. The hugest amusement park so a must visit for everyone. I do prefer going there over the summer though as many attractions are closed during winter. Regardless there's so much to do that cant be done in just a day. There are rental strollers for kids and i believe electric wheel chairs for the elderly. However, make sure to keep your personal belongings with you at all times. On rides they are accepted so maybe consider carrying lighter bags. I love that this park caters to all ages and there's even lots of activities that people with disabilities can do. I always make sure to take all the rollercoaster rides my favourite. In winter there's always a pop up dome kind of setting were you can do various indoor winter activities like ice skating. Food points everywhere as well as bathrooms. Long queues but they move fast. This is my absolute favourite family destination with the little ones for the past 5 years.
Perfect for a day out with the family. The amount of time spent onto details makes it truly a magical place. Had a wonderful time!
Beautiful theme park. Staff is nice & helpfull. Paths and queues are clean. Rides are fantastic. From rollercoasters to family dark rides. Try to look at their website for a prediction of how crowded the day will be. Great park for families, but also for groups of teenagers and (young) adults. I would definitely recommend!
Excellent place! Been there with 5 and 4 years old kids, found many stuff to do with them.
Open all year round. Beautiful park with many attractions for small children.
Have been going since a child. Has great attractions for all ages, mixed around the terrain.
Most to all rides are themed.
Gorgeous location and dress up of the surrounding area. A large portion of it is "old dutch" style.
Has a forest of fairy tales from across europe.
Park is divided across "realms" which have their own style.
Amazing themepark. I always enjoy coming here. Truly a park for everyone. <3
Awesome day here! Went with my first born (11 months) and he really loved it!
The nature, rides and food are awesome!
Facilities are good; some male toilets didn't have changing pillows for my kid so that made me go to the ladies... (please change that, daddies like to act as a parent too:p )
It's still hands down my favourite theme park!
My favorite theme park, i used to come here two times a year.
Absolutely a must see magical wonderland . Great fun for the hole family.
What a fantastic day out. Plenty of choice for all age groups. Lovely setting, great design and layout.
Fabulous place great rides, clean parkland no queues. Better than Euro Disneyland.
Plenty of attractions and more than full day of fun
More of a place for children. It was very highly rated which is why me and my other half didn't want to miss out. Two of the big rides were closed of the 6. Pretty place and a great day out for the children. Not for adults tho. Disney still wins hands down
Brilliant fun gor everyone... great, well priced food and trafitional fairytale woods plus rollercoasters and rides too..
Another great day. Fun with plenty to do. Lucky it wasn't too busy.
