Chur - Tirano is a shall! Beautiful trip just amazing.
I love this new Stadler Trains, the driving comfort and the great quality makes every even nicer. Some of the views are breathtaking. I took the same trip now 2 weekend’s in a row because I loved it so much. I will share this with all my Swiss and international friends. Good Job RHB keep climbing

Simply spectacular train journey. Highly recommend for visitors and for the locals too.
Train staff is very friendly and helpful. We got complimentary chocolates and ice tea on the train as well.
I chose to give 4 stars due to the state of the toilets. If this is sorted, it would've been 5 stars surely!

Great visual experience. Try and get first class tickets as they have the glass ceilings making it easier to see the mountains. Amazing views along the journey and a good chief conductor who gave us insight into upcoming sights. Truly an amazing experience.
Paul Di Gregorio — Google review
It would be 5 starts but the entree (chicken) wasn't very good and they spooned it out of a large terrine into your plate on a moving train, which caused sauce to get spattered on multiple guests. I'd say order from the a la carte menu that doesn't need to be planned in advance and skip the multi course meal. The train ride itself was stunningly beautiful.

Best train to board, you can see amazing view of swiss mountains, if you have swiss travel pass then you to reserve your seat, you will also get india food ( tomato dal and rice ) but its costly,
This train stop in couple of locations , those locations are really beautiful. Try it aleast once

If in the event it is not known, make sure you book your seat reservation way ahead of time since it is required to ride the train!!!! This review is strictly focused on the train portion of the Bernina Express, and not the bus ride. That deserves its own review.
The train begins at the central station in the city on platform #10. There is a sign for it by the stairs as you are walking towards it to let you know as well.
Once the train arrives, they have a couple of signs places by the doors to indicate which cart is which, and the inside they have their numbers for the seats by the windows. The employees are very helpful throughout the whole journey and, give you some info on the journey along the way as well. You can also sign in to their wifi, and listen to their guides in other languages too to continue with more information!
Beyond that, there is not much else that can be said other than just sit back, relax, and enjoy the sights along the way! Have a glass of wine while you're at it too!
Pro tip. Please be respectful of the other people on board, and try to keep conversations within a reasonable level, and maybe not use a selfie stick the whole time swinging it around like crazy.

A magical vacation in Switzerland. I’m happy we decided to add this to our itinerary. We spent over 7 hours of viewing bridges, tunnels, alps…
It was a bit confusing buying tickets online so we visited the station in person a day before. I’m happy we did that as we may have booked another route. Thanks to the guidance of polite staff, we were able to decide on our package.
Nova Coleen — Google review
A terrific and recommended experience. The trip over the Alps is constantly scenic. The train is comfortable. Service is terrific (although the food can be a bit expensive.) A relaxing and gorgeous way to enjoy the lovely Italian and Swiss scenery. Note: One must buy BOTH tickets for the train AND seat reservations.

Really great experience. I am just impressed by the engineering work behind. Just think about, that the construction started over 100 years ago. The service at the train is also just great. You can get some local snacks and wines. In the end of the trip, we got some Lindy hearts in a nice metal box in the Bernina train design. Really great price for the value you get.

Journey from Chur to Brig.. specially went train takes you to straight in Glacier..plz train name is glacier so it's minimum expectations. For food my suggestion is to better to carry on your with water because this is Swiss nothing free all cost a lot..food was so so not so tasty and neither delicious
Deepak Agarwal — Google review
Full disclosure: we took the regular trains, not the ones with the special cars with large, panoramic windows. The advantage we think is that it was less crowded, and one could open the windows to take better photos. Also, we could get off and back on as we wished. For example, we visited delightful Poschiavo. To each his own.

My wife and I heard many things about the Bernina Express from friends and other sources and we decided we wanted to experience it ourselves. We booked our trip a day before we were supposed to fly back home, at this point we were very tired but still wanted to check this off our bucket list and let me tell you it is definitely worth it. We started our trip from Tirano which is approximately a two hour drive from Milan and our end destination was St.Moritz. In the meantime we witnessed the beautiful landscapes that Italy and Switzerland had to offer and it was worth our time, money, and energy. On the way to Switzerland, we sat in first class and on the way back we sat second class. To be honest, I didn’t notice any big differences between the classes except for the type of quality of seats you sit in. Other than that everything else was amazing.

I just could say that the stop to play in the snow and take pictures it will be better to extend a little bit more, we just have around 10 min, and also if possible to include connection to charge our electronics devices will be better

Purchased our reservation for two in December 2023 for our trip in March 2024. Right side of the train is definitely better in case you’re wondering, though it’s difficult to tell which side of the train is the front when you reserve your seats. Our journey began in the old town of Chur, Switzerland en route to Torino, Itsly. Outside of the train there were markers indicating the car number so be on the lookout as it is made quite clear, otherwise you may be standing in front of the wrong section. Plenty of luggage and baggage space at the front of each car and also between the seats (Swiss design and practicality on full display). Our experience began with an unpleasant tone as two European travellers attempted to steal our reserved seats and pretended like we were the wrongdoers. When asked for them to kindly move seats they asked which seats we reserved which were clearly the window seats with tickets to prove. Turns out these two had a return train (taking the same route on the same Bernina Express but in first class) so clearly they weren’t oblivious to the concept of reserved seating but that’s life.. some people try to take advantage of others in the most peculiar situations. As the journey commenced we were presented with views of the beautiful Swiss countryside. Green hills and mountains in the backdrop. Couple hours in we were in disbelief as we journeyed towards higher and higher elevation towards Grum Alp and close to a glacier town. The climate was vastly different and we entered a literal blizzard. How the trajn managed to get through this journey without a single hitch or delay left us in utter disbelief but again that’s that Swiss engineering on full display. Views were immaculate throughout the journey and the staff were also very friendly. Near the end of the trip they presented every passenger with a tin train souvenir in the shape of the Bernina Express filled with Lindt chocolate alongside a boxed herbal tea drink. Funny enough these are items you can purchase on the train worth a per passenger value of 15 francs each. Very generous! Overall we enjoyed the journey and spectacular views!

The ride over Albula and Bernina Pass is really breathtaking. For us four hours of train ride were okay, three would be perfect, but its like this. It's quite a long ride but because the nature is so beautiful, it's never getting boring. The only negative point is, that the seats are quite narrow and small. With long legs its a little difficult.
Soonebs — Google review
Probably the most beautiful trainride of Europe, and I traveled 100k km with trains so that must mean a lot.
Absolutely stunning and amazing views, catering on board is nice (but Swiss, expensive, prices) and all worth it.
I loved the Andermatt Pass, it's amazing to go through the snow on these hights!
Lugano is a picturesque resort town on the shores of Lake Lugano in Switzerland and Italy. The lake measures 50 sq km, encompasses both countries across the Alpine ridge and has a mild climate perfect for nature lovers and sunbathers. There are two cable cars that take visitors up to beautiful mountain vistas, as well as boat services to explore the lake's various islands. Lugano is also a popular shopping destination with local artisanal producers.
A must visit for nature lovers

Amazing place, romantic, quite, smell of nature, and much much more. I visited lake lugano from como. It was one full day trip to como and lugano. In my opinion, each city needs couple of days and maybe more. The center of the city is bigger than como. People are friendly. The only thing that you need to have swiss Franc with you, since thier exchange rate is not fared. Also, you may suffer from mobile data service since they are not part of EU. As a conclusion, i will visited again and again

It’s a beautiful serene lake in Switzerland. It is on the border of Italy & Switzerland. Took a train ride from Milan to Lugano. Highly recommend boat rides here to enjoy it fullest. I have visited on the weekdays to avoid large crowds. We tried paddle boat from “Rezzonico Boat”. Their staff was very cooperative and also provided Life jackets for Boating. Their prices are affordable too.

Such a serene and beautiful place! The lake Lugano and the city is so calm and peaceful, relaxing. We got here on a weekend and of course most places were closed being in Switzerland. But they did have a few coffee shops, chocolate shops and eateries open. The walk along the shopping streets and up to the cathedral. The get the view from up top from here of the whole city and the lake, spectacular! A walk along the lake front is a must, you will find it so calming and picturesque!

Amazing place, situated between Lake Como in Italy and Lago Maggiore, and the border between southern Switzerland and northern Italy. It is romantic, quiet, with the crisp smell of nature, a nice walk or just to stroll along the lake into the city centre. People are friendly, no harm in saying hi to strangers as you stroll along.

One of the most beautiful lakes I’ve seen in Europe offering a mixture of staggering views. Dancing at the tune of the cool breeze, the tulips are painted on a canvas of the blue lake and mountains covered in dense trees. There’re cozy cafes around offering delicious cakes, delicacies and coffee. You can also shop for good brands around the place. We parked in a parking plaza with average prices. Highly recommended place!

Certes, un très beau palais, mais comme pour Lille, une fois débarqué du bateau, vous vous retrouvez en otage et contraint de prendre un billet à 34 € pour la visite ou alors d’attendre le prochain bateau dans une heure… C’est regrettable

babeth miranda — Google review
Be aware: Your ferry ticket will not cover the palace and gardens. These cost an additional 13€ per person.
That said, the gardens make for a lovely walk, and the peacocks are a delightful addition. They're friendly enough to approach crowds (and we sat beside one as we enjoyed a drink at the cafe.)
The path is often steep however, and contains a large number of stairs, which might cause difficulties for some visitors.
Also, the palace is littered with crude waxworks dummies, which made it more like a House of Horrors than a museum.

Moins visitée que les autres îles c'est pourtant la plus belle, notamment pour son jardin.
En effet, il abrite de nombreuses essences dont beaucoup d' exotiques. Il y a toujours des plantes en fleurs qui subliment le cadre.
Le palais n'est pas aussi imposant que celui de l'Isola Madre mais est intéressant.
La visite peut se faire en 1h30 mais mieux vaut compter 2h00.
Peu de restauration sur l'île mais on peut facilement pique niquer dans dans le parc.

Less visited than the other islands, it is nevertheless the most beautiful, particularly for its garden.
Indeed, it is home to numerous species, many of which are exotic. There are always flowering plants that enhance the setting.
The palace is not as imposing as that of Isola Madre but is interesting.
The visit can be done in 1h30 but it is better to allow 2h00.
Few restaurants on the island but you can easily picnic in the park.

This place is of timeless beauty, it is extraordinary and absolutely deserves to be visited.
Pause to read next to each exhibited object, you will be captured by the details that at first sight the eye cannot focus.
On the effigy of the Borromeo we read "humulitas", it certainly makes a little smile, in all my life I have never seen so much pomp.
Very beautifull! Strongly recommended.

If you are fortunate and get to vist Lago Maggiore an hour north of Milano Italy via train or driving, make sure not to miss Isola Madre!
This beatuful island has extrodinary gardens, a nice resturant (see my review) and a stunning villa. Palazzo dell'Isola Madre is one of my favorite places on the lake. In 1014, Emperor Henry II granted the island to the nuns of the monastery of San Felice of Pavia.
Lancellotto Borromeo married the daughter of the Doge of Genoa, Luisa Adorno and purchased the island in 1501 from the church and introduced the cultivation of citrus fruit to the island, the plants being brought from Liguria, along with a gardener to tend them. Lancillotto began the construction of the family residence on the island, which in the 1580s was extended in the Renaissance style by Renato Borromeo.
Among their many visitors have been Napoleon Bonaparte, Gustave Flaubert, and Théophile Gautier.
To make the most our of your visit, I strongly recomend getting a private guide. We were blessed to have Sandra as our guide, she spoke english and italian. She was really amazing!
Steve Wong — Google review
Worth the visit! We visited Palazzo Boromeo on our half-day tour of the Borromean islands. We bought a ferry ticket dockside in Stresa for 2 islands (Isola Madre and Isola Pescatore).
I really liked this palace for three reasons. 1) It felt lived in and loved by its inhabitants. There were tableaux with furnishings, paintings and statues of men and women dressed in typical aristocratic clothes of the day. It wasn't glamorous or gilded everywhere ~ that kind of opulence is what you'll find on Isola Bella, should you decide to go there.
2) There is an extensive puppet theatre exhibit in a wing of the palace. At least 6 rooms are devoted to the puppets, scenery and costumes from their theatrical productions. I felt this was truly unique and unexpected.
3) The magnificent Cypress from Kashmir. The tree was restored to standing after a struck down during a storm. Also, the botanical gardens are lovely, and the peacocks and pheasants who make their home on the grounds.
Titlis is a renowned mountain peak that boasts of various attractions including the world's first cable car, skiing area, suspension bridge, and glacier caves. Although it can only be accessed by car, it provides a cheaper alternative to Pilatus or Tiltis especially for those without the Swiss Travel Pass. Visitors can take advantage of the CHF13 two-way lift or CHF10 one-way offer to explore this beautiful attraction from 9:30 AM to 6 PM.
This was my third visit to Switzerland, but the very first to Mt. Titlis.
In one word this was the most amazing experience from our 8 day Swiss tour.
Best to visit Mt. Titlis is from Lucerne, as it is only around 30-45 min drive from there.
When reaching Engelberg there're several big parking lots, with a flat day fee of 10 CHF. From here the adventure starts.
You change two cable cars to reach the summit at 3.000 meters. The second rotating cable car is a masterpiece.
Once up you think you're on top of the world - unseen beauty of Alpine peaks all around you from the viewing terrace.
Two outstanding attractions are included in your entry ticket - the Glacier cave walk in an ice tunnel and terrific suspended bridge walk outside.
Make sure to visit the Trubsee middle cable car station, as there's a beautiful walk around the lake. You can do it on your way up or down with the same ticket.
Count on around 3-4 hrs for a proper visit without transport time from your location.
TIPS:
1. Buy your ticket online via Getyourguide - they were around 20% cheaper than on the official site and at the counter.
2. Doublecheck the weather before you go, if it's cloudy there's hardly no point going

It's a great experience....especially the snow-filled mountains and travel to the titlis mountains in the cable care....great protection should be taken one waterproof heavy jacket and snow protection boots are mandatory.....go early so that you can visit all the stops starts by 9 and closes by 5....

I had the time of my life here. Located at 10,500 feet above the sea level, it's one of the most sought after tourist destination in Switzerland. Take a train ride to Engelberg and then continue with the cable car rides. In the end enjoy the slow rotating Gondola. The mountains are covered in snow and make for an amazing view.
People who enjoy skiing can do ski here. The famous movie ddlj posters are also here. And of course a walk to the highest suspension bridge is an awesome experience.

Beautiful mountain with spectacular views. The ride to the top of the mountain is amazing ! There are 2 types of cable cars. First one is normal with 6-8 person capacity. Second one is a big one and is a revolving cable Car which gives everyone a 360 degree panoramic view of the mountains. There is also an additional open cable Car which is super fun there are several activities at the top to do and visit. Ice caves, skywalk bridge, open cable Car etc. There are restaurants at the top which serve variety of food from Indian to European. The ticket of the cable car up and down is 96 CHF and can be bought at the counter below. Summer season is usually crowded. There are plenty of car and bus parking spaces available at the foot of the mountain. Must visit !!

Beautiful and stunning views. While going up the hill it was cloudy and was no visibility. It looked just like a moon base when we got to the top! So cool!
You make your way up via rotating cable car! Thrilling!
Make sure you do the cliff walk, ice cave, and don’t forget to sledge! So much fun!
Titlis is definitely worth the trip! Just incredible!

A good experience. DDLJ shot here. Go for the views. The minimum temperature is -23 degree celsius during winters. Be sure to check weather forecast as trolleys could be closed if snowfall is there.
Nikhil — Google review
One of the best activities for the family during summer. Titlis is a very interesting place where the snow covers the mountain, everyone is playing with the snow while temperatures are reasonably low..
Waiting ques is long and can take up to 1 hour...
Again, you will face another que at the cable cars especially if you are late..
I prefer to purchase tickets in advance..
Parking lot is available and you have to pay...
Usually, it will take you 2 to 3 hours to have a proper visit... Other people take 2 days instead of one especially when you do hiking....
Opens from 9 am till 5 pm...
I would say it's cheaper than top of Europe....
Best to go there before mid June as these years temperatures are going high during summer..

We had great weather and not very busy. No lines, clean restrooms and good service. Wear good hiking shoes and warm jacket is still chilly but not bad. Is still pricey 100 per person for the lifts.

This is the famous spot where DDLJ poster is placed. We visited in summer but still we could enjoy snow. Must enjoy ice flyer and cliff walk. Ice cave is also good to visit. When you buy a ticket, you get these activities included with return ticket.

No words. Take a train to engelberg from Zurich,enjoy the ride on rope way to the mountain top. There is just divine and heavenly beauty to be inhaled. Don't miss the opportunity, just visit.
The surrounding mountain view both in winter and summer are equally enjoyable.
I recommend to carry some little snack and water along with you to avoid rush at hill top restaurant.

It's one of the most famous tourist point in Swiss..we took a cable car to engelberg and then 360 degrees rotating cable to reach the mountain...
There are souvenir shops and also restaurants on the top of the mountain for tourists to enjoy delicious food and beautiful scenery.
The experience was amazing and Unforgettable..must visit place..

The Swiss Alps experience is brought to life as you adventure up the mountain in the world largest cable car and go over the grassy green hills which turn into snow hills. You reach the top by the largest cable car in the world, it was an awesome experience. At the top you can just stay in the gift shop and lodge area or you can seek adventure on the ice flyer, tube riding, ice cave, and finish with a warm hot chocolate in the restaurant. The views are breathtaking, a must do experience.

Mount Titlis is beautiful place. Need to check the weather before going. If the weather is not good then they will close on the spot. Activities are good and views are great
Kavitha Thakur — Google review
Located at 1.5 hours drive away to North from Zurich city. It is one of the best visiting points in Switzerland. There are multiple options to reach the 1st level of the mount Titlis. Via fennicular or by cable car. Fennicular may not drop you to the top, while via cable car, you can easily visit top through different levels.
84 Euros or 100 USD ticket can be used at cable cars, roatator, and Galacier cave as well.
There are multiple cafes at different levels of mount Titlis.
I would really recommend you to have coffee there.
At the end, it is one of the best places I have ever visited.

Mount Titlis is also one of the scenic spots in the Alps, with an altitude of more than 3,000 meters. Cable cars are mainly used as transportation.
Although they are all cable cars, they are different in space. The latest cable car is the first in the world, it can accommodate 80 people, and it rotates 360 degrees. All the beautiful scenery can be seen from all angles. It does not take much time to climb to the top and enjoy the amazing views.
Feel the stunning scenery. There are souvenir shops and restaurants on the top of the mountain for tourists to enjoy delicious food and beautiful scenery. It is a very popular tourist ski resort!
If I have the chance, I will definitely visit again next time~

Mount Titlis in Engelberg, Switzerland, is a majestic peak in the Swiss Alps. Renowned for its panoramic vistas, it offers year-round activities like skiing and snowboarding. The Titlis Rotair cable car provides breathtaking views from the green savanah underneath to the permanent snow on the top

Best tourist spot in Switzerland. Very systematic, well managed place.
A popular destination for tourists, Lake Lucerne is the fourth-largest lake in Switzerland and offers boat trips with stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The well-preserved old town situated right on the lake adds to its allure, making it a must-visit place for alpine scenery enthusiasts. To fully explore this compact city, it's recommended to spend a whole day on foot. The train station located in the city center provides easy access to all parts of Lucerne via public transport.
Passed by around this lake to prepare Boat to Mountain Pilatus, everything was good, but unfortunately the cable car isnot working that day

This lake and this area in general, is very scenic and relaxing. The water was placid and tranquil as well. It offers nice views of the surrounding city of Luzern and it's mountains. I recommend taking a boat tour of the lake. It is an hour long with one stop round trip. Definitely worth seeing and pretty hard to avoid if you visit Luzern.
Phillip Soto — Google review
It is stunning, with a backdrop of mountains and punctuated by little towns, villages and settlements along the coastline. The water is pristine and often changes colour.
Better still, if you're heading to the Gotthard Panorama Express, catch the paddle steamer all the way to Fluelen, a trip of about 2.75 hours and the scenery just gets better and better (have your camera ready). If that is what you are doing, then you can book your luggage through to the train at the departure point in Luzern, so you don't have to worry about carrying it on board.
Narender Kumar — Google review
Best place to be visited during all season. Super combination of mountains along with lakes and also boat rides makes it complete package.
Debjit Ghosh — Google review
Sailed from Lucerne to Flüelen on the Uri, Europe's oldest paddle steamer. The 100 year old boat is in the best possible conditions and offers all amenities with a flair of the grand old times. The panoramic boat ride lasts around 2:45 h, in early October there was a fresh breeze so bring warm cloth if you plan to stay outside. The upper deck is beautifully sunny, but other areas more wind protected. The morning fog soon lifted and views opened, so don't be deterred if the morning looks gloomy. The restaurant serves food and drink, but nobody minds if you bring your own either. Indoors there are information panels and one can watch the steam engine in full action. It looks as shiny and new as it started operations yesterday, not 100 years ago.

Lake Lucerne is surrounded by beautiful mountains, picturesque villages and the Old town which makes the cruise through the lake an enjoyable experience.
We took the boat from Luzern Bahnhofquai to Kehrsiten - Burgenstock and back which took around an hour.
The trip was very relaxing. You can immerse yourself in the calmness of lake Lucerne and enjoy the sights of the floating swans, the majestic snow covered mountains, the green meadows with village houses popping up and the regal structures of the Old town.

One of the most beautiful spots on earth Lake Lucerne us a must in one's bucket list when they visit Switzerland 🇨🇭.

Lake Lucerne is a lake in central Switzerland and the fourth largest in the country.Several spa and bathing resorts such as Weggis or Gersau are available here,Different sports are possible in some separate areas due to the water and wind conditions. The lake is accessible from boat and yacht harbors, to lake resorts and pools. There are about ten places where you can dive without a boat in Lake Lucerne. The water is rather chilly all year round and therefore mostly very clear

We took the train from Zurich to Lucerne. It was a beautiful summer day, and I was wearing my favorite cotton high-top shoes. From Lucerne, we boarded a boat that crossed the lake toward Alpnachstad station. From there, we would take the train up the mountain to the top. Lake Lucerne shimmered in the bright sunlight as we sliced through the crystalline waves. While I twisted in my seat to get a better look at the landscape, I shifted my feet, turning them left, then right. My ankles were sore, but I couldn’t figure out why.

Old Town Steakhouse is a rustic destination serving generous portions of meat and seafood dishes, perfect for a memorable meal. The seasonal terrace offers beautiful views of the cityscape and makes for a great place to relax after a day of exploring Zurich's historic centre.
Wonderful evening with Til and the gang. They create an excellent atmosphere and experience. The vodka bone marrow shots and rum liquer complimented the excellent steak. Nice job folks.

Randomly picked a steakhouse in tourists area, that we already have mentally prepared for any surprises, ordered a T bone on a heat rock, which is I don’t like this cooking, I think grill is the best cooking for steak. The meat is soso. No surprise of expensive dinning after the day one in Swiss.

Waiter demanding tip let them down.
Good food, good ambiance, reasonable prices on lunch special BUT will never return after waiter demands a tip. He mentioned it four or five times and made the our use of our credit card difficult until a tip was added. He only cleared out plates.
A more senior waiter, more smartly dressed, perhaps the owner, was much more pleasant taking our order, delivering the food and second glass of wine. I tip for excellent service not for just doing the job.
Sadly our end to this meal means we will not return and therefore can’t recommend it.

The restaurant service and food were not good for the price. The servers were not nice and very impatient. Even though I was also staying there I was waiting to meet someone and they practically tried to get rid of me. I had to sit and was forced to order food to stay there which was outside even though there were lots of empty tables. They belittled me for visiting with my niece for what they thought was too long even though it was only about an hour. Will never eat here or stay here again. The room was big e good at all with a broken television and other problems including no soap.

Had dinner here, a quick steak late at night.
The meat is average at best, and well overpriced. It’s a classic tourist trap.

I ordered salmon with a side of broccoli. The food wasn’t bad and wasn’t the best it could use some more flavour but it is very overpriced for what you receive, not worth it in my opinion, very overpriced but so is most of the food in Zurich. The service is good though.

Really great steak. Mediocre service. Waiter with short facial hair asked for a tip, I proceeded to add 4 francs out of courtesy, he cancelled my credit card payment and said typically people tip 10%, I put 0 francs and he basically threw a fit at the table dropping my credit card and slamming the receipt on the table (not even over exaggerating...) made me feel a bit uncomfortable, but all I had to do was walk out the restaurant. Won't be coming back again.

As soon as we walked into the restaurant, we were greeted with a very warm hospitality. Also, we were showed to a table immediately even though we said we didn't book a table. All of the staff was very helpful, attentive, and friendly and big smiles on their faces.
The staff was always asking if we needed anything or if everything was okay, which felt very nice. When we were trying to take pictures, one of the staff also came in to help without being asked when he saw us. We also didn't have to wait too long for the food.
I had ostrich steak on a hot plate which was soooo juicy. Me likey very much🥰🥰. I also like how they have so many side dishes, including the risotto I chose. I also tried the rib eye hot plate steak which was very nice because we can choose the wellness of the steak😂 although we had to be very careful not to accidentally touch it (my dad did😅😅) .
Then, I ended this meal with tiramisu with fresh fruits and my parents had ice cream (sour cream, passion fruit, walnut)
Overall, I was very impressed this candle lit steak dinner ❤❤

Nice little hotel in the heart of the Old Town in Zürich where there are lots of restaurants and shops, and it is also only a short walk from Zürich central station and tram stops. It sits above a restaurant of the same name. Recommended for couples only as the rooms are very small.
The Highlights:
- the rooms are very clean upon check in, and despite being small, has the basic necessities: bed, air conditioning, mini fridge, kettle, Closet, TV, hot water, towels, etc. It's also non-smoking which is really appreciated, considering how much people seem to smoke here in Zürich.
- Another highlight is that it has a lift (elevator) that fits 4 people with no luggage, or 2 people with 2 suitcases
- The continental breakfast included in the room has two kinds of bread, two kinds of cold cuts, some fruit, jams, three kinds of cheeses, juices, coffee and tea - enough to fuel up for the morning until lunch time.
-Although the hotel is in the heart of the Old Town with bars and restaurants right below it, the sound proofing of the windows is pretty good as we couldn't hear the outside world once we've shut them properly.
What can be improved:
- Customer service leaves much to be desired. The people serving in the morning don't seem to want to host people at all as he didn't want to interact with any guest, save to serve us coffee or tea. This is observed both days we had breakfast there.
- Our room also wasn't cleaned. Not sure what the custom here in Switzerland is, but when we returned to our room after our second day, we found that our bed wasn't turned over, the dirty towel on the floor was hung up against the towels we wanted to reuse, the complimentary drinking water was not replaced. The only things done were opening the window to let air in and the trash had been taken out. If not for those, we wouldn't have known someone was in our room.
- The pillows were very flat and if you folded them, they would stay folded (which means they are expired and should be replaced). This is minor if it doesn't bother you, or course.
- as mentioned, the room is very small so be mindful of that if you are planning to bring large suitcases for your trip as there's little room to place them in.
Overall, I would only recommend this hotel for staying in Zürich for its location and value for money and not for any other reason.

I ordered a sirloin steak well done with a baked potato no sour cream but with butter. The meal came with the steak being seared on both sides but raw in the middle and I said this is not cooked to my liking he said you have to cook it yourself on the stone I said I'm paying you $50 for a steak and I have to cook it? The waiter ended up cooking it the rest of the way on the stone which took about half an hour.
The baked potato did not come with any butter like I asked and no skin I like to eat the skin on my baked potato but there was none it looked like a piece of lasagna. In addition the steak was tough I did not believe it was a sirloin because it had gristle in it. I did have dessert apple pie ice cream and it was delicious. No I won't be back.
Rhine Falls is a tourist spot in Switzerland that boasts of being the largest waterfall in Europe. This natural wonder has a width of 150 meters and height of 23 meters, which can be enjoyed by tourists through boat trips, viewing platforms, and guided tours. Laufen Castle serves as one great option to view the falls while various decks provide another alternative. The thunderous Rheinfall produces an impressive flow of water with abundant photo opportunities along its shore trails.
This is the seventh time I have been here. Can really recommend it for the first really warm spring days. Easy to park, free parking at the castle side of the falls. Electric charging parking is also available. Do spend the extra money for the tickets to go down to the waterline to see the force of the water firsthand. We took the blue line and this was definitely worth the money. Well worth a visit!

Prime tourist attraction in Basel. Beautiful location with an amazing view. The walk up to the Rhine falls from the river banks is worth doing. There are options available for boat rides to reach the center of the river body to get a great view of the waterfall. The price is decent (EUR 20). Numerous shops and eateries available to enjoy the time in a wholesome way. Great destination for family weekend getaway.

Rhine Falls is a natural wonder that leaves an indelible mark on your senses. The sheer power of Europe's largest waterfall is awe-inspiring, with thundering waters cascading dramatically. The well-maintained pathways and viewpoints ensure a breathtaking panorama of the falls from various angles. Visiting the falls up close on a boat tour provides an exhilarating experience as you feel the mist on your skin. The surrounding lush greenery and rock formations create a stunning backdrop for photography enthusiasts. Whether seen under the summer sun or embraced by winter's icy charm, Rhine Falls offers a captivating sight year-round. The well-equipped visitor center and amenities enhance the overall trip. A visit here is an encounter with the raw beauty of nature that's truly unforgettable.

Absolutely beautiful scenario. Nature at its peak ❤️ the area is not very stroller friend or at least we couldn’t find it.

You cannot come to Switzerland and not see this waterfall! It is a place that will meet your expectations with its nature and historical structure. You can take a boat tour on the waterfall in spring and summer. I think it is a place that children as well as old people will love. I can recommend you to eat ice cream in the view of the waterfall. A cold beer in the summer can also be good. Have fun now.

Please research about this place before going and the best times to go. Definitely go when there is nice sunlight since the lighting there is pretty bad to take photos of the waterfall in dark.

Rhine falls is as beautiful as it gets, but I would highly recommend taking the boat ride of 75 minutes, which goes along the river. It takes you along in quiet, serene waters, with wind blowing in your hair. You can enjoy nature, birds all around, sun, sky and water. You need at least 3-4 hours to soak it all in! Not far from Zurich, it’s super easy with Swiss rail pass, with train stop right at the falls! Don’t miss it 💜

This is an amazing, beautiful, and breathtaking experience! We did the "yellow" tour which takes you to the rock island. You are dropped off, and you can climb some VERY steep stairs to be right in the middle of the falls. It is very crowded during the season, so reservations are highly recommended. Food onsite is typically touristy menu and way over prices. Try to plan a lunch or something in the local towns and experience real traditional dishes.

Although we did not go to the platform above the waterfall, we still had an amazing view of the whole waterfall with the landscape and buildings around it. Personally, I feel the tickets are not the best value due to view offered from the pier opposite of the falls also offer a very good view however the tickets are not too expensive. I also suggest to bring a poncho if you are going to the platform above the falls.

Beautiful. First we entered from the side of the fortress. From there the view is good, but visibility is poor. There is an elevator that goes down to the waterfall. We weren't there.

Very nice tourist attraction, with nice boat-rides near the falls with reasonable prices! The restaurants do not have a wide variety of dishes, but the place is magnificent. If you do the boat tour, take into account that you are going to get a little bit wet, but it is not something to worry about. Wear worm clothes in general, because the temperature is a little bit lower that in the town.

The Chapel Bridge in Lucerne is a wooden bridge that spans the Reuss River. It is one of the oldest covered bridges in Europe, and it is named after nearby St. Peter's Chapel. The octagonal water tower, built in the early 14th century, is the city's most photographed landmark.
Beautiful place for sightseeing. The old wooden bridge has a sad history but pretty to look at. One can easily roam the entire city and admire the old Town architecture.
The lake has many swans and ducks swimming, it's very cute. Do take a walk in the bridge.

The bridge located in Lucerne Switzerland is both historic & beautiful. A walk along it’s length is very pleasing. When completed walk the waterside and marvel at its colour & splendid 👍

This is a very cool covered wooden bridge in Luzern, Switzerland. Apparently, it’s the oldest of its kind in Europe. It was initially constructed in 1365. Definitely walk across it. Beautiful flowers on both sides & lit up at night. No tickets needed.

Luzern is a beautiful city, a combination of modern and old ways of building so this bridge fits perfectly into the environment. The story of him is also very interesting. It's worth a visit.

The oldest bridge in Europe. You can read the historical facts online or follow one of the many walking tours available to grasp its significance.
This bridge provides a different architecture scene compared to its surrounding. Yet it does not seem out of place. Rather, it elevates the scenery as one of the most picturesque in Luzerne.
There are tons of alfresco dining available around the area which allows you to enjoy the scenery while eating and drinking.
Because of its popularity with tours and tourists, this bridge can be very crowded and will be difficult to navigate.

It's gorgeous and it's for free. What's not to like? It's worth noting there are stairs involved so there are some potential accessibility issues if you are not so mobile or have a stroller with you (like we did). Wasn't too busy when we visited (end of winter) but I can see this bridge getting packed with tourists during more popular times.

We visited world's oldest truss bridge today and happily ticked one item off our bucket list. This bridge restored after a fire in the 90s still has some of the original paintings left in it. It's at the centre of town connecting the two banks and looks wonderful with the water tower beside it.

Iconic landmark of Lucerne. Aside from the incredible lake, it's a must-see, or you have never been to this city. But it's busy, crazy busy, and you need to be patient to get that shot. I wished we had more time to see more sights of this lovely city, maybe another day.

An old wooden bridge which has a historical importance in Switzerland, once it was destroyed and then reconstructed,the bridge is kept clean and the water flowing under is crystal clear, the bridge is decorated with flowers, an important tourist destination almost all tour operators prefer.

Best place to take photos and it’s better to go during evening or night time and it’s walkable distance from Lucerne main station. The scene is best as bridge beautifully ornamented with real trees. There are churches near to this bridge which you might visit.

Mount Pilatus is a prominent mountain peak in Switzerland that boasts of sweeping views, a restaurant, and a hotel accessible through cable cars, gondolas, and railways. It can be reached via the Golden Round Trip which provides an unforgettable experience of the Swiss Alps. Visitors staying in Lucerne can easily commute to Mount Pilatus via public trains or by renting a car from Zurich Airport.
Number 1 attraction in Luzern... 360 view is breathtaking.. you can see all lakes around..
Be careful last gondola is at 16:30...

The views from the top is just breathtaking. So easily reachable from Lucerne town centre. We went up the cable car and down via the steepest tram. Everywhere you look is so awe inspiring. Beautiful!
KS Lok — Google review
The visibility can be tricky due to the clouds so I would advise go a little bit later during the day. The cart all the way up (return) was around 70 e per person.
There is a parking near by that cost us 5 euro for 5 hours.
There are restaurants all the way up. We took fries, coke and pretzel for total of 17e
The hill itself has few small hikes around the peak which is great.
It is possible to hike all the way up or down from the peak.
Justyna Liska — Google review
Wonderful place with a fantastic scenery. A lot of short (but steep) trails and beautiful climb up by the cable car. Take the time to visit the area half way up. It provides a different and nice angle.
It is better to take some snacks and drinks with you since the food and drink prices at the shops are as high as the mountain itself.

The views when we went up on the cog-wheel train were absolutely stunning, and I really enjoyed them. But when we reached the top, some clouds came and covered the great views. However, even with the clouds, it was still an amazing experience that I'll remember.

What an amazing experience. From my travelling experience, what makes Switzerland better than most countries is the infrastructure. You go the most remote locations and you will find trains, trams, buses and shops. Plus, very rarely do you not get phone reception. Amazing experience for a weekend.

Mount Pilatus was only white fog for us. There was a tonne of crowd with us waiting for the clouds to go away! But the ride up the gondola and the view is beautiful. The fun thing is that we can get down at any of the stops and hike up or down as per our choice. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in the clouds above, it felt like we were in heaven 😂, everything was blanket white. We hiked down a few kilometres till the last gondola stop. And the walk is steep but very very scenic. If you have the will and stamina, walk down a bit. It’s absolutely beautiful valley and the views are amazing 😍

We took the cable car up and cogwheel train down. This way we avoided the big crowd. We also missed the best ferry schedule so we went back to Luzern, visited the museum and then we took a evening cruise to Weggis. It was a perfect day spent in Luzern.
Michael Wang — Google review
It was one of the best trips we’ve had in Switzerland. There are different routes to do it, we chose to go with the boat from Luzern, then the funicular up the mountain and then the gondola and cable car down to Kriens and the bus back to Luzern - it was absolutely brilliant. Took a total of 5 - 5.5 hours from the moment we got on the boat. It is recommended to reserve a time slot for the cogwheel train otherwise you would need to wait more.

Close to Lucerne. Take the gondola first and then the cable car. The views are quite good. The self service restaurant are good not too expensive maybe except the water. There is a small hike further to the peak but it’s not difficult. Went in winter and sometimes the wind can be strong. Worth a visit if titlis is closed

Picturesquare views from the top. Price from Kulm to Pilatus and back was 62 CHF, but it really pays off. I was at the beginning of march, aby 0 degrees on top, and wind. Not crowded, but I expect it is in high season. In Kulm you can find parking, 5 CHF for whole day, so not too expensive. I definitely recommed to visit Pilatus if you are in Switzerland.
Marta Bohonos — Google review
The view from the pick is absolutely stunning! The round trip ticket with the cable car cost 78 CHF. I went on Sunday so the line for taking the gondola was huge. I waited 30-40 min in the line despite the fact that I had an online ticket purchased before.
You should consider 2-3 hours at the peak of the mountain. There are several points to eat, souvenir
and Swiss watches shops and restaurants.
Don't forget to wear comfy clothes and shoes, otherwise it will be difficult to hike.
The highest railway in Europe leads to Jungfraujoch, a glacier saddle with an observatory and shops. This destination attracts over two million visitors annually for its stunning views of the Aletsch Glacier and surrounding Alpine peaks. The journey up from Kleine Scheidegg is dramatic as the train passes through the Eiger mountain's icy heart before reaching the Sphinx meteorological station at 3454m above sea level.
This is definitely one of the top tourist attractions in Switzerland and definitely worth a visit with spectacular views of the surrounding mountain range. I recommend you to take the newly built gondola from Grindelwald Terminal which is an experience in itself - the most modern in the world, bringing you comfortably up the mountain with breathtaking views everywhere. The gondola arrives at the top station of Eiger and from there you take the 30 minutest train ride to Jungfraujoch - the highest train station in Europe. Prepare to spend at least 1,5 hour walking around at the different attractions before you visit one of the restaurants available. I can recommend you to try the delicious typical Rösti dish they serve at the top restaurant Crystal - very tasty indeed.

Awesome. You must visit and experience it in order to know what I mean. Really beautiful scenery and wholesome experience.

If you have reached Interlaken or Luzern, then you shouldn’t miss this beautiful place on earth. It will cost you around 176 francs per person to reach here, but worth the experience once in a lifetime.

Try to get there as early as possible to avoid the crowds and have it all to yourself!

Visiting the Top of Europe Jungfrau was an unforgettable experience. The journey itself, aboard the scenic cogwheel train, was breathtaking as it ascended through the Swiss Alps. Arriving at the summit, the panoramic views were simply awe-inspiring, with vast glaciers and towering peaks stretching as far as the eye could see.
Exploring the attractions at the summit, such as the Ice Palace and Sphinx Observatory, offered unique insights into the region's natural beauty and scientific significance. Stepping out onto the observation deck, I felt like I was on top of the world, surrounded by pristine snow-capped mountains.While the experience was undoubtedly awe-inspiring, it's worth noting that the crowds can be quite large, especially during peak tourist seasons. However, the efficient organization and facilities at the summit helped mitigate any inconveniences.
Overall, a visit to the Top of Europe Jungfrau is a must-do for anyone traveling to Switzerland. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness the majesty of the Swiss Alps from its highest point, and the memories made there will last a lifetime.

A highlight for any traveler coming to Switzerland! Europe’s highest railway is certainly an engineering masterpiece of design. First take a cable car up to the train station where you switch into a cog wheel train which then runs through a tunnel in the heart of the mounting ascending to this marvelous viewpoint and diner! It was foggy when we visited but still incredible. The ice cave was super fun to explore and slide around in.

Amazing experience in the open area unfortunately due to weather the zip lines were closed, was very very windy and the weather changed every five to ten minutes .

Jungfrau, called the roof of Europe, is a must-visit place for anyone traveling in the Alps.
I took a mountain train to the top, and the train was full of passengers.
It is important to note that the air at the top of the mountain is thin, so if you stay for more than 30 minutes, you may develop alpine symptoms and get headaches.
Even in midsummer, the top of the mountain is very cold and requires a thick coat, and sunglasses are essential because of the white snow field and the UV rays reflected from it.
There are many things to see because the surrounding scenery is very beautiful on the way up to the top of the mountain.

Jungfraujoch is an absolute must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Switzerland. The journey aboard the Jungfrau Railway itself is an adventure, offering jaw-dropping views that seem straight out of a postcard. Once you reach the "Top of Europe," the experience only gets better. The Sphinx Observatory provides unparalleled 360-degree views of the surrounding Alpine landscape, leaving visitors breathless in awe. The Ice Palace, with its intricate ice sculptures and tunnels, adds a touch of magic to the experience, making you feel like you've stepped into a winter wonderland. Whether you're an adrenaline junkie hitting the slopes or simply looking to soak in the stunning scenery while sipping hot cocoa, Jungfraujoch has something for everyone. It's an experience that will stay with you long after you've returned home, leaving you yearning to return to the majestic beauty of the Swiss Alps.

Well, when I visited Jungfraujoch, it wasn't the nicest weather. -21C, foggy and snowy so there wasn't much views to admire. Eismeer was completely blanc btw.
But bad weather doesn't mean I didn't have a great time! there's plenty to see, taste and buy.
Bonus: first step out of the train in the Jungfraujoch station and I found I had altitude sickness. heh! wasn't expecting that one :)
For new comers, the sensation of sickness, dizziness, breathlesness, confusion, high pulse and tiredness are symptoms of altitude sickness. It's not a disease, it's from the rarefied air and the pressure inside the mountain. It occurs when increasing altitude suddenly.
For me, going from 500m altitude in Interlaken to 3454m at Jungfraujoch, in little more than one hour was a bit too much, but increase the altitude slower, and the symptoms disappear.
Overall really nice what the Swiss managed to build well over a century ago with rather primitive tools by today's standards.
All respect for those people!

Joined a tour to visit the mountain to save on logistical planning, and it was very well organised by “Best of Switzerland” tour 👍🏻 our guide Rebecca was very knowledge and friendly, not to mention super enthusiastic throughout our entire visit - constantly engaging everyone during each stopover or transit.
⏰ The rides to and fro the peak were very well organised, with little to no downtime between each transition, leaving sufficient time for toilet breaks too - departing from Lucerne and return took us from 9am to 7pm+
🏔 the view at the top of the mountain was unfortunately hindered by fog, would recommend to check the live cam at the top of the mountain to manage expectations prior to embarking on the trip
🏞 remaining facilities at the peak was good though, with multiple visit points, clear signage to guide the way and decent selection of food and beverages (albeit at a steep price, pun intended)
⛑ safety though, could be looked into - with very slippery surfaces once you step into the open area. Would recommend visitors to wear shoes with grip before embarking on the snowy surfaces
Though we didn’t get to enjoy the full view of what’s it like at the peak, it was still an experience being at the top of Europe, with unparalleled views throughout the way too 👍🏻

Absolutely beautiful a must see, visit and experience in order to know what we felt like on top of Europe. My daughter and i didn't expect to come this far, but hey we made iit and it's really worth it. Beautiful scenery fantastic view and an unforgettable moment to be in this magical place, just like in a movie "Bond" not to mention the chocolate factory and a bit of a shopping. Enjoy a delicious lunch at the restaurant and choose the best seats with mountain view. Stay at 4 to 5 hrs and enjoy the moment while it last. On the way back you we're riding on cable car and enjoy the panoramic views from the mountain to the platue and take a train back to Wegen. Absolutely amazing! Highly recommended 👍😊

Definitely worth a visit! We went on the last Eiger Express gondola at 2.15pm and managed to finish in an hour and half. Views from the Sphinx was great with a metal plate showing what mountains you’re looking at. It got better when we went onto the plateau. Be sure to wear nonslip waterproof shoes as many who did not were seen slipping on the slopes. Ice palace was only a short loop as part of it was closed. On the way up there was also a 5min stop at Eismeer for photo taking. Ample parking available at the station itself and the shops there close at 6pm so you can grab some souvenirs at the souvenir shop or some grocery at COOP Pronto. Overall a great experience not to be missed.

While the Jungfraujoch isn’t as tall as other mountains like Matterhorn, it’s a beautifully made, high altitude place to tour 😊 You can get to see both Jungfraujoch and Mönch at the very least!
We bought tickets using the half fare card for a discount. The entire trip was breathtaking! Love the view on Eiger Express to Eigergletscher btw. Whole trip without lunch was about 4h long including the transport there/back.
There is a map for self guided tour - we walked into Ice Palace, and the two outdoor observation spots, Lindt shop etc.
Bring sunglasses, gloves and be careful of slippery snow when walking out/in from these observation spots! Take lots of pictures with care (eg due to stronger winds than what we’re used to at times)

The place is good for visiting and experiencing. It's worthwhile to visit there for a once if you are in Switzerland. But it's nothing like a mountain climbing or hiking, you couldn't understand how you reach the top of Europe by the train and through the tunnel. I would recommend you to take the traditional mountain railway to visualise more beautiful surroundings.
Check weather report before reaching there

Tips: It's easy to get here from the Bern's Station too, just look up & follow one of the clock towers.

Bern being the capital of Switzerland is an ancient city. Has many historical buildings and scenic lookouts. You have to stay within the city limits to enjoy the sites as they are accessible via light rail. Book a hotel near to the city centre and use the light rail and buses to get around. First time visitors get a free pass within the 2 city zones. Rent a car and travel to Zurich and Geneva to enjoy the alps and historic towns. Busy during the summer. The cost of food etc are very expensive here specially being the capital. Good only if you’re into scenery and historical buildings.

Bern's Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site and the historic center of the capital city of Switzerland. It is renowned for its well-preserved medieval architecture, charming cobblestone streets, and numerous historical landmarks.
It is situated on a peninsula formed by a bend in the Aare River. The layout of the town has remained largely unchanged since the medieval period. The Old Town is known for its covered arcades (Lauben) which extend for miles and make Bern one of the longest covered shopping promenades in Europe.
A walking tour is the best way to explore Bern's Old Town. You can take a guided tour to learn about the history and significance of various landmarks, or explore at your own pace. Be sure to visit the Zytglogge (Clock Tower), one of Bern's most famous landmarks, to watch the clock's elaborate mechanisms and figures in action as the hour changes. Don't miss the area's selection of chocolate shops. Explore the Swiss Federal Palace, home to the Swiss government, and take a guided tour to learn about the country's political system and history. Visit the Bear Park near the Old Town to see Bern's emblematic animals. Finally, take a stroll along the Aare River for beautiful views of the city and surrounding hills.
Bern's Münster Cathedral is an iconic landmark with an impressive façade and beautiful stained glass windows. Climb the tower for panoramic views of the city. The Einstein Museum, located in the building where Albert Einstein lived while in Bern, offers insight into the famous physicist's life and work. Kramgasse is one of the main streets in the Old Town, lined with shops, cafes, and historic buildings. It leads to the Zytglogge and provides a lively atmosphere. The Old Town is also dotted with colorful and ornate fountains from the Renaissance period, each with its own unique design and history. The Rosengarten (Rose Garden) offers beautiful views of the Old Town and is a great spot to relax and take photos.
The Old Town is best explored on foot, but there are also trams and buses available for easy transport.

The city of Bern is great to visit (as for most Swiss cities I would avoid going there on a Sunday as most shops are closed and some restaurants too). Bern has a beautiful old city center which is easy to get to from one of the many parking places around the center or (of course) by train. Really nice view from the Rosengarten and while you are there it’s nice to walk downstairs to the bridge to have a look at the bears at ‚Bärengraben‘. Beautiful City!
Please leave a thumbs up/like if you think this review was useful.

A lovely little old town that we stopped by for just a day on our travels. We didnt get a chance to do anything but in about 4 hours we felt like we had seen everything that bern has to offer.
Its worth it to atleast once walk up towards the rose garden to the east as you can then really see over all of bern. There are pretty streets, sculputers and building all over. Apparently the fountain water is also drinkable.

The Freiburg Cathedral is a beautiful, iconic Gothic cathedral located in the heart of Freiburg, Germany. The building dates back to 1200 and features stunning lacy spires, cheeky gargoyles, and intricate entrance portal. The cathedral is decorated with a large number of artistic details, making it an excellent place to enjoy the view. There are also restaurants and stores along the street.
Very detailed cathedral, I can watch it for hours and find more and more things. Surrounded by the small local market with flowers, fruits, sausages (highly recommend to try one, very tasty stuff!), wooden goods, etc. Don’t forget to see the cathedral inside. It worth it, trust me. Reminds me the famous Strasbourg cathedral, but a smaller version of it. One love ❤️

Oh man, where do I start? I love pipe organs and this cathedral has a huge pipe organ divided into three parts. If you visit the place, they to find the three pieces, it's awesome. I'd love to see it being played but I didn't have the chance yet. Beautiful place.

This Münster offers mesmerizing views from the top. One of the famous and beautiful tower in Germany. It has a very attractive architecture and history.

Very Beautiful Cathedral in the town of Freiburg im Breisgau. This town is at the edge of the famous Black Forest area.
There are lot of hotels to stay very close to the Freiburger Munster, in and around the square. When we stayed for a night, the square around the Munster was occupied by a wonderful Christmas market, where you could get excellent food (including vegan options), and nice artisanal items. This place is also close to the Swiss border from Basel.

This church is worth a visit. They do hold masses in German which was a challenge but it gave me an opportunity to see it as it was meant to be seen. We were told it was only structure spared during the war. Romanesque and Gothic architecture.

I have visited quite a number of cathedrals in Southern Germany, and Freiburger Münster showcases the most beautiful set of stained glass windows. Absolutely breathtaking! The steeple height is surely imposing, standing high and mighty above the beautiful city of Freiburg im Breisgau.

Freiburg Cathedral, since 1200s. Some interesting facts about this masterpiece. It’s actual foundation is based on a church started in 1120s, in line with that in 2020, Freiburg celebrated in 900 years Anniversary. Only Gothic church in Germany dating back to Middle Ages, which survived wars and still smiling.
Out of 16 bells, the oldest dating back to 1258, oldest Angelus bell in Germany. It took 300+ years to realize this dream. The church is surrounded with market on weekdays, called as Münster market which brings local produce for sale. This tradition has been here since Freiburg wrote its name in history. So, a visit to the market is a different vibe. Can you go the church tower. Of course. 300+ steps will take you to the top of church tower base, where you can enjoy panoramic view of Blackforest and the city. Best time is Autumn during sunset. Check closing time before the visit. The church tower Entrance ( Münsterturm) is outside the church on left side.
Wish you beautiful day.

A spectacular cathedral, right in downtown and surrounded by some beautiful old buildings. The entrance is free, and the environment inside is darkish and quiet. The glass windows are beautiful, and the shafts of light coming in are amazing. The ceiling has lovely textures, so do look up. It is nice to take a moment to sit and take in the calm. It is also lovely to walk around on the outside and notice the stone carvings.
Basel Minster is a famous Protestant Gothic style church with twin spires and a tiled roof built in the 9th century. It is located on Munsterhugel, the highest point in Basel, and is easily spotted by its prominent spires and brightly patterned roof tiles.
One of the most iconic landmark in Basel that you have to see. If you are brave enough to climb to the top of the tower, you will be rewarded by the breathtaking view of the city across the Rhine. And if you look further, you can even see across the French and German country border. Even if you don't have the strength to climb atop of it's tower, the cathedral has an ornate interior as well as a monastery with courtyard right next to the cathedral.

One of the most beautiful churches i have ever seen. Loved the painted glass and the columns, the ceiling and arches.The entrance is free but if you want to go up to the tower you have to pay 6 CHF. And you will want to go to one of the towers, because the view to the river and the city is breathtaking. I never miss this part anywhere, and now i wasn't dissapointed. You will not regret it.

Hey, the tower is an absolute must-visit! The views are absolutely jaw-dropping, giving you the perfect overview of the city. Plus, the ticket prices are a steal compared to other towers in Europe. But hey, here's a tip: don't tackle the climb solo. Some parts of the tower can get pretty spooky with darkness, and those stairs? They're high and narrow, like something out of a medieval adventure! So grab a buddy you trust and make a day of it. Exploring the tower will easily fill up an hour of your time, but remember, it shuts down at 4 pm sharp. So get there early to soak in all the views and enjoy the breeze!

Fascinating gothic style cathedral dating back to the 9th century with rich religious and political history.

Basel Minster is a free to enter church located at the heart of the city. It's also the location of the Basel Autumn festival and Christmas markets. It's a stunning Gothic cathedral, stands as an architectural marvel. You can buy tickets to go up the cathedral's tower to experience panoramic views of Basel and the Rhine River. Its timeless beauty and cultural significance make it a jewel in Switzerland's heritage and a true testament to Gothic architecture's grandeur.

Basel Monastery is located in Basel, Switzerland and is one of the city's major tourist attractions. The monastery is on the Swiss national heritage list. The monastery, which was originally built for the Catholic Church, was transferred to the Protestant Church after the Reformation. The building, which was influenced by Romanex architecture and Gothic architecture between 1019 and 1500, was destroyed in the 1356 Basel Earthquake and was rebuilt by Johannes Gmünd, the architect of the Freiburg Monastery, and completed by Ulrich Ensingen in 1421. The south tower was completed by Hans von Nußdorf in 1500.
When you go to Basel, you should definitely see this place and the Palatinate (Palatinate) Viewing Platform next to it.

Unforgettable for young and old. The management works tirelessly to add new exciting things and maintain the established rides.
The gardens and plants are exquisite and in pristine conditions. It's a joy to wander through the different gardens
Congratulations.
I visited first time when the park opened in the mid seventies, it's come a long way.

One of the best place to visit while travelling to Germany. This place is full of adventure and beautiful view. You can enjoy here with your partner as well as with your family or kids. It has both options either you can chill with your kids or if you want a quiet place then you can also get that. My overall experience here was amazing and I enjoyed everyday during my stay. There is bus shuttle service inside Europa park by which you can travel from one place to another free of cost inside Europa park. And specially the staff over here is very friendly and polite. 😍😍😍

Wow Where Do I Start. This park is amazing, it’s one of the best if not the best in the World.
Arrived at 08:30 and some attractions were already open 😲, then walked on rides majority of the day and didn’t wait more than 25 minutes. Did 30 rides and left at closing time. Experienced 1 minor breakdown the whole day which saw can can coaster close for a max of about 10 minutes. They kept silver star & can can coaster open a little longer after park close so people didn’t leave without riding one last ride due to the breakdown.
Operations were world class too, staff were friendly and extremely efficient. Food was good except the Food Loop which was quite expensive. Paid €15 for a burger on it’s own but it was tasty so I’ll give them that 🤣
As a whole the park is extremely clean, well looked after and so well ran. Over 2 days did 55 rides and experienced shows and had time to eat and shop. Will definitely be back next year 👍
Parking was also efficient. Was in and out in no time. Entering the park was just straight in. Long Opening Hours too so no need to rush and plenty of transportation attractions such as a train and 2 monorails.
I recommend this park as it is PERFECT FOR EVERYONE!

Give yourself at least 2 days. The park is huge and there is so much to do and see. Since it was a slower season, many food places were closed or running on shorter hours, and I would have liked more regional food for the areas. All around amazing experience, and the queues were shorter than we expected given the size of the park.

What an amazing place and an amazing experience.
Everything is meticulously maintained, there is a huge diversity of different rides, the whole park is themed and decorated for Halloween, and the atmosphere is so pleasant.
I loved how they divided the park into different countries. Everything is so easy to find.
Prices of the food and beverages are decent in most places.
I especially loved how they added Single Rider lines in many of the rides. Also, they do it very efficiently, so you don't have to wait for too long even if you're in a group and prefer to save some time and split on the ride.
This is my second visit. I visited 7 years ago. A lot has changed for the better, even though the park was great even back then. They definitely know how to keep improving.
The only thing I would suggest them to fix is the app's possibility to return to the list of rides after selecting a specific ride and pressing "return". Currently, it takes you back to the general map, and then you have to again select and filter the rides you want to see.

It‘s amazing how this park has developed and grown over the years. It takes a least two days to see the whole park and enjoy most of the rides, shows, etc. You can see the effort everywhere that the park looks nice & clean all day. Needless to say there are attractions for the whole family, from thrilling roller coasters, Virtual rides to calm story rides, shows, etc. Food & Drinks are expensive, comparable to other parks, but it’s very fair that it’s allowed to bring as much as you want by yourself. Entrance fees are fair and you‘ll get a lot entertainment for your money.

We first visited Europa Park back in 1990 before we had our children. We have visited it regularly since with our children.
We have seen the park grow and really enjoy our visits. We have stayed on the campsite in one of their tepees as well as in nearby hotels and campsites.
Access to the park is easy as it is well signposted. Once inside, there is plenty to see and do with lots for adults and children of all ages, and their are rides for all ages.
There are shows to see, including medieval knights.
The food isn't cheap but there are plenty of quiet areas to enjoy your own food or picnic.
The car park is well laid out, and again is well signposted and marked.
The best part about Europa Park is the atmosphere, especially on a bright summer's day. Queue times vary of course depending on what time of year and what day of the week you go, but they're not too bad. The bigger and more popular the ride the longer the queue, and there are plenty of rides and the wait is worth it.

Nous y retournerons pour découvrir la nouvelle attraction qui a l’air sensationnelle !

Wonderful place.
I'd love to see some more variety in the food stalls besides the all time classics: currywurst, churros, waffles, burgers etc.
But other than that everything was beautiful. Many rides for small children to older ones. They also have places for the parents to sit while their kids play, in the area where the playgrounds are.
There are also little houses or spots where you can just sit in peace for lunch and enjoy the view.
You need at least 4 days to manage to see everything if you go with kids.
The europa park app is a must if you want to check the waiting lines for the rides, the park map etc.
Don't miss the all you can eat ribs in the silver lake saloon and the all you can eat buffet in Antica Roma! Both need reseevations!

What a fantastic place to visit! Disneyland in Paris doesn’t get a look in with this place. If you want thrills and theming that really makes a difference. The park was super clean, staff extremely friendly and the efficiency of the queues was excellent. If a ride was getting a bit too busy they would add extra cars on to ease that. The virtual queue system was excellent and the shows were fantastic! Stopped at the Kronosar hotel and again what a fantastic place, rooms were spacious and everything was kept so clean and tidy. I’ll definitely return, only spent 2 nights but could have spent longer as there is so much to see and do.

A place for theme park goers, a lovely date, want to experience different countries in a short space n time , take kids out.
New rides, five nights at freddys-esque rides with puppets, toddler rides. Water rides...
Highly recommended in warm to slightly hotter weather.
The versatility of this place is great.
Download the app. No ifs, no buts.
Solo riders lane was a nice experience
Only "downside" is how to get there, but its logical for it to be away from city and in a spacious plot.
Make sure you factor in travel time especially if driving. Coaches and buses depending may be better.or nice stroll

What an amazing park. The theming is beyond incredible even to the bathrooms. Great roller coasters. The new Voltron is top notch. Food wise amazing options and very tasty. My only “negative” is that operating hours seem to be set the day of operations since the website states at least till 1800. After a while in the park hours did get extended till 2000. So if you visit and it’s busy check around

très beau parc d'attractions.
personnelles souriants et avenants, files d'attentes pas trop longues, max. 40 min. avec parfois 15/20 min pour les attractions phares, pour ce weekend de Pâques.
malgré l'affluence, le parc est tellement grand qu'il n'y avait pas une sensation de foule.
spectacles époustouflants surtout celui de magie et le gloge théâtre !!
un très bon séjour de 2 jours, avec en prime le soleil dimanche !!
nous y reviendrons avec un énorme plaisir.

Despite the crowds, the park is so large that there was no feeling of crowds.

Fantastic place! Watching it was one of the greatest experiences of my life. In a huge hall, hundreds of cars in beautiful condition. From the beginning of driving, you can find a lot of models here, looking at some of them, a frame from a movie comes to mind. We'll come back again, because it's a full-day program if someone wants to watch it more thoroughly.

A car collection like none other. It's a step back in time - and yet has one of the greatest new cars ever made on display. The classic/supercar driving at the end is a brilliant addition, too!

Despite not being a car enthusiast in any way, I absolutely loved this museum. There are vehicles spanning from carriages to formula 1, as well as lots of Bugattis. I would have liked to read more info about the vehicles, they only have a sort description. And more information about the founders of the collection would have been useful. I read up about them after my visit but their story could have been presented better in the museum. You can easily spend hours going round here.

This is an impressive collection of cars. There are a few fun hands-on activities as well plus a roll over simulator. There is a collection of children's pedal cars as well, which my children enjoyed. I am not a car fan by any means, but I enjoyed the museum.

Jaw dropping. The sheer number and range of vehicles is amazing. Quite a privilege to see the early models, and with good descriptions. But also the other categories, through the decades, as well as top end models and racing cars.

I don't visit museums that often, but this one is worthy of all the admiration. Great exposition, excellent descriptions for each car and really collected a huge number of exhibits
I will say right away - that allocate 2,5-3 hours to visit.
I was pleasantly surprised by the presence of a restaurant on the territory and a cool event after the end (the event is held on the territory of the museum every Sunday).

With one word - it is an extraordinary museum! If you are a car enthusiastic, or someone who is into mechanical designs and engines, you should definitely see this place.
The open gallery is very well prepared for a great exhibition according to years with brief, but attention taking descriptions and stories. The collection is one of a kind with very unique and rare cars.
And the idea of "Car lost in the Nature" is truly beautiful. We paid €18.00 for an adult ticket without waiting in the line on a Friday afternoon.

The Musée National de l'Automobile in Mulhouse is well worth a visit for every car enthusiast. So many beautiful examples of automobiles from the very beginning of car manufacturing until the late 1970ies. Maybe the biggest collection of Bugatti in the world. Amazing! We were lucky and there were not too many people there so it was perfect to take pictures. I would like to go again. Or go to an event where the old racecards are really driven. Extraordinary!

Huge museum but seems stuck in time pre 1980. Some important early cars in here especially Bugatti and others and interestingly includes a modern day Veyron. Vast majority of the collection is very old and either early cars or from 1930s, 40s and 50s when obviously the collection was being assembled. Some really interesting cars too from micro to pedal cars, clangers like the Aston Martin Lagonda, Ferrari 512 and some fun hands-on things for kids. Very cold inside the day we visited and could have been heated. Parking outside is 2euro an hour.

Absolutely stunning collection of mainly Pre War Classics with an outstanding number of Bugatti Cars, but also some other classics can be seen.The space is arranged very well with no unnecessary stuff , we enjoyed the walk through the building.
The only downside is the missing ability to get something to eat in the afternoon, a small bistro menu with fries, Cake, Crepe or Baguette would be a great addition.
Jochen Sch — Google review
The collection is downright fantastic. It's incredible to see that many old cars, all the way to the 1890s, all in perfect operating condition. Fun activities as well (packing a boot to the brim, manually starting an old car...).
Beware of the cold, however, if you visit in winter. The exhibition hall has no heating at all anymore (due to electricity prices). I visited on a freezing day and while it was above zero indoors it wasn't a lot higher!
The bar also isn't particularly remarkable and has a tendency to close early (4:30 is too late already).
All in all, pick a sunny day, go early enough, and you'll have a blast!

My visit to the Mulhouse Automobile Museum was an absolute delight! From the moment we stepped in, the friendly staff members Charlotte and Lauris made us feel welcome. The museum itself is a treasure trove, boasting hundreds of classic vehicles and racing cars. Each exhibit is a masterpiece, but the Bugattis stole the show, giving me goosebumps! Spending the morning with Olly, reminiscing about his childhood and cars, was a highlight. I highly recommend a visit, but don't forget to wear warm clothes, as it can get chilly in March. Be prepared to do a lot of walking, as the place is huge. Overall, a fantastic experience that I'll cherish forever!

Not much of a car enthusiast, but this museum is spectacular. You don’t have to be knowledgeable or even all that interested in cars to thoroughly enjoy yourself here. The way that the history and progression of automobiles are displayed is quite captivating and we ended up spending 2-3 hours here.

I forgot to make a mention for the guy at the bar counter inside the museum. I never saw a guy so crazy like him. You can talk to him and he still doing his job, don't answer to you, give you his shoulders and don't care what you ask to him. I asked for a plastic bottle of water, I showed him a translation in French and he stills no answers and doing his own!!! Very very very rude!! I think it will be good to change your staff
This holiday apartment in the charming town of Little Venice is perfect for visitors looking for a bit of relaxation and beauty. The area is well-known for its historic houses, fairy tale vibe, and meandering Lauch River. The apartment has been decorated in an elegant style with all the necessary amenities to make your stay comfortable. The town itself is also very charming and offers plenty of activities to enjoy, such as exploring its colorful half-timbered houses or taking a boat ride on the river.
家族4人で利用しました。川沿いの眺めが良く、夜は静かでロマンチックな場所でした。建物自体は凄く古いのですが、中は綺麗にリフォームされてキッチン周りの電化製品や器具、食器は全て揃っていて、とても清潔でした!
車はホテル前に路駐して荷物を運んだ後に近くのパーキングに移動しました。
すぐそばにマルシェやレストランもあり立地は最高だと思います。

I parked my car in front of the hotel and moved to a nearby parking after carrying my luggage.
I think the location is great as there are markets and restaurants nearby.
The owner, Madam, spoke English, and although we arrived late at around 8:30 pm, she waited for us in front of the hotel after a phone call, and we were able to receive the keys. rice field.

A "Real Eyeopener"!
This compact "old town" area of Southeast Colmar is a place "not to be missed" by visitors! It gets its name due to the "historic houses" built on both sides of the small, meandering, Lauch River.... and the "fairy tale vibe". The area is wonderful to walk around-- and has cobbled streets, colourful "half-timbered" houses, and a "covered market". It can also be seen by boat. It has been awarded by TripAdvisor the esteemed "Certificate of Excellence". It is indeed well worth a visit. It is no wonder that it has been rated as one of the "top of places" to visit/things to do, while in Colmar. It will definitely add to one's memories of the visit.
I hope that this Review has been helpful.

Lovely time walking around Home Little Venice there's so much more than the picturesque bridge's to see with a few lovely restaurants along the canal, and little boat trip back and forth . It's only a short walk from here to the indoor market .

Vieille Ville, also known as the Old Town of Colmar, is a picturesque and charming area that feels like something out of a fairy tale. The streets are lined with colorful half-timbered houses, creating a storybook-like atmosphere. Visitors can wander through narrow cobblestone streets and explore local cafes, bakeries, and shops offering crafts. St. Martin's Church stands as an impressive architectural marvel in this historic district.

Colmar is definitely our favourite town in Alsace after 5 days of visit. A must do together with Kaysersberg, Riquewihr, Eguisheim, Ribeauvillé and indeed the splendid castle of Haut-Koeningsbourg. The whole of Colmar is a magical place! The whole city is a Christmas market and even with the cold it is difficult to keep the hands in the pocket as you would want to take pictures of everything! This city is full of beautiful houses for their shapes, colours, decorations, and everyone is incredibly friendly in Alsace ! The city has many nice shops and amazing restaurants to enjoy including a 2 Michelin star restaurant. We've got to visit the city if you come to Alsace.

In my opinion the best spot of Alsace region in France. We compare the river view as Venise. The colorful houses with old design and typical architecture will definetely touch your feeling.

Colmar is a really popular and busy spot. But one can see why that is. It is an unbelievably pretty town, with a very walkable and accessable town center.
The old town is pretty compact and could be visited in one day. But make sure to give it a few days if possible.
There are endless sights, architectual masterpieces on every corner with the typical buildings, lots of wonderful shops and endless dining options.
There's the impressive Collégiale St-Martin, the Église des Dominicains, the Église Saint-Matthieu, the Grand Rue, the Place du Marché Aux Fleurs, the Fontaine Schwendi, the Parc du Champ de Mars, Maison des Têtes, the Place du 2 Février, the Parc Montagne verte, the wonderful Marché couvert and of course Petite Venise. And that's just to name a few sights.
It's nice to just wander around and to get lost in the various lanes and streets of colmar. Nice butcher shops with local goodies, lots of delicous bakeries and of course the restaurants. Sauerkraut and Flammkuchen are local specialties of course. But there's a lot more than that. We very much enjoyed "Les Racines" (a bit hidden away) and "Le Fer Rouge" (right in the middle of the action). Good food, nice staff, high quality, fair prices.
We found out that most restaurants are dog-friendly. Inside and out, as in most of France.
Even though quite a busy town packed with visitors it's one of the most beautiful spots in France (city-wise). Definitely worth a visit for a couple of days. We'll be back again in a few weeks.

Nestled in the heart of a forest near Kintzheim, La Montagne des Singes is a wildlife park spanning 24 hectares where over 200 Barbary macaques roam freely. Visitors can embark on a guided forest walk to observe these fascinating creatures and learn about their behavior from the knowledgeable staff. The park also features a playground area for children, offering an interactive experience that allows them to simulate being monkeys.
An enjoyable 90 minutes spent wandering through the forest at the Montagne des Singes.
The monkeys all looked well cared for and they seemed to be as curious about us as we were about them!
A perfect place for families or budding photographers - the monkeys were great subjects for photos as they loved to pose!
The park has a large car park, snack bar and lots of picnic tables (set away from the monkeys).

Great park with enough space for the monkeys. Having been there for the 3rd time we probably didn't spend as much time there as others would. We spent around 2 hours including a cool drink/ice at the kiosk afterwards.
The only negative thing to say is that during feeding the only spoken language is french (though it is possible to ask questions in English or German after).
However, when you have a child along who not yet speak more than one language it is (for the child) a quite boring experience to just stand there and listen for 10-15 minutes to something which you do not understand.

Monkey Mountain was great! My 8 and 11 year olds enjoyed walking through the monkey area. We saw a few baby monkeys that were the most adorable things ever!

There is a fantastic "monkey" play area where the kids can climb through an elevated sort of ropes course and then other activities to simulate being a monkey.

The Owl of Dijon is a renowned tourist spot where visitors can explore the city and discover 22 different locations. The trail offers various attractions along the way, making it a unique experience that is highly recommended. To reach the famous owl, one must follow metal signs on the ground. According to legend, touching the stone owl while making a wish will grant it. This attraction is located near Notre-Dame Church's exterior and draws many tourists each year.
Excellent architecture, iron-work, sculptures and old buildings. This area of the picturesque Dijon is rich with local history, iconic buildings and some beautiful cobbled alleys leading through narrow walls between cathedrals, rectory and other substantial buildings. Wonderful examples of this period and worth the visit on foot.

In fact, the idea with the Owl, and the tourist routes where you are accompanied by owl, is simply ingenious. this idea, of course, is also implemented in other cities.

Owl itself accompanied us almost everywhere where we were not in this city.

The Hôtel-Dieu Museum, also known as Hospices de Beaune, is a renowned attraction in Beaune. It was originally built in the Middle Ages as a hospital and later transformed into a museum. This flamboyant Medieval hospice showcases local art and furnishings from that era. The Gothic architecture adorned with vibrant glazed tile roofs adds to its magnificence. Additionally, the establishment owns prestigious vineyards whose wines are sold under Domaine Hospices de Beaune.
Historical landmark which served as the first ever hospital in the world. The place have a rich history and a nice audio guided tour. I would say this is this is the main attraction in Beaune.

Very interesting museum in a former hospital that was in use up to 1984! Tells the story of how the hospital worked over time and daily life there. Also a must visit for medieval art and architecture enthusiasts as the place is full of it. Displays are informative with the provision of an audio guide which can be in English and French.

Hôtel-Dieu Museum is one of Beaune's must-visit attraction spots, besides the various wine domains and caves in the city. You'll learn about the building's history and transformation, which is entwined with that of the city. Audio-guide is included in the entry ticket. Book online in advance to avoid long queue.

The hospice is definitely worth a stop. The very detailed audio information played on demand via a special phone provided was a great addition to the basic tour. It is an amazing place that was set up by a nobleman in the 1400s.

The Hôtel-Dieu Museum, located within the Hospices de Beaune in France, is a fascinating historical site. The museum showcases the former hospital's rich history, featuring impressive architecture, vibrant tapestries, and a collection of medical instruments. Visitors can explore the iconic Polychrome Room, known for its stunning timber ceiling. The museum provides insight into medieval healthcare practices and the charitable work of the Hospices. Overall, it's a captivating blend of history and art, offering a unique glimpse into the past.

Very interesting and astoundingly beautiful museum which was a hospital in the early modern age. If you are anywhere near Beaune, this is certainly worth checking out. Cheap admission includes audio tour which is available in many languages. Great trip through 16th-18th century history.

Beaune is famous for wine and this impressive former hospital for the poor. The Burgundian roofs and architecture are beautiful to see and it is famous with tourists. You can get an audioguide and explore the history of the halls. Every year in Nocember is the charity wine auction as the hospices also have their own vinyards.

Make time to go visit. This hospital built in the 1400s. Very interesting. The audio tour is presented as if you are talking with the wealthy couple that funded the construction. A fun POV. If you bring children, there's a special audio tour available for them. Very enjoyable .

Very impressive building from the 15th century. Created to provide hospital facilities to the poor, it continued to provide medical services into the late 20th century.
The price of entry includes a self- controlled audio tour about life in the Hospices through its history.

This place is amazing. Bever thought that a private own hospital could be this cozy and welcoming, especially during the revolution days. The facilities are surprisingly well preseved and protected for the visitors to know about that period of time. If it wasn't that sunny, I would love to spend more time there just to listen to the bells from the tower.
Guédelon is a remarkable project where a team of workers is constructing a medieval-style castle using original techniques and materials from the 13th century. Located in the heart of an ancient sandstone quarry, this living museum offers visitors the opportunity to witness artisans such as stonemasons, carpenters, blacksmiths, and more at work. The site also features workshops where tools and materials for the castle's construction are crafted.
An astonishing project, craftsmen are building a medieval castle from scratch using traditional methods and tools. There is ample parking. The toilet facilities, like all on offer are well maintained and clean. Visitors can wander as they please through the complex, watching craftspeople at work. The castle is only part of the attraction, nearby in the woods are medieval workshops and buildings. We did not try the restaurants, apparently the food is good.
Julius Charrett-Dykes — Google review
This place is a living museum and it is great. The craftsmen here are reconstructing a medieval castle using the same tools, materials, and methods they used in the middle ages during the reign of Philippe II.
They have been working on it for years and years, and the castle will be completed in a few years (2025 was an estimate given by a mason working there)
Around the castle you will find all sorts of workshops where they are crafting the tools and materials needed to create the castle. You will find things like a smith, a carpenter, a quarry, a mortar maker, a stone worker, a dye and paint maker, a watermill, and many more things.
The people working there are all dressed in medieval clothes, and they are happy to explain the things they're working on and teach you the techniques. It is super interesting, but you will have a hard time talking to the craftsmen if you do not speak French. There are signs all over the place in both French and English, but the staff only speak French.
You will also find more modern facilities near the entrance, such as a restaurant and a souvenir shop, and they also have a decent number of bathrooms. The place is a great place to bring kids, and you can easily spend a full day there, but keep in mind though that the ground is very uneven and not great for strollers, prams, or wheel chairs.
The restaurant is very expensive, and the servings are tiny, so I really recommend that you bring your own food. There are plenty of picnic areas at the place and you are welcome to bring your own food and drink if you prefer to do that.

It's an experimental concept that started in 1997 to recreate a 13th century Medieval castle inspired by nearby Saint Fargeau castle. And it is planned to finish around 2030 with eventually an abbey and a village to be constructed near the castle too! There is a lot of historical information and some reproduction of medieval activities that you can attend to. It can be fun and very kid friendly! 😊

Very interesting site, even if you are not a builder. A Medieval castle being reconstructed using tools and materials of the period. Everything is done on site, including stone cutting, rope making, dies, wood beams, tiles, slakes, etc. A veritable treasure trove, my second visit and always informative and enjoyable.
Nigel McKinley — Google review
This provided better insight into medieval life than do visits to actual medieval sites. The chance to watch a log being hewn into a beam by a man with a primitive ax is worth most of the price of admission, and there's much more artisanry to observe. Apart from the workmen's footwear and a few safety measures, the only anachronism I spotted was a squash in the garden. The food wasn't bad, and the beer was excellent.

This is an amazing educational and fun place to see active experimental archeology in action.
How did 13th century people build the amazing castles and cathedrals of Europe? How did they shape the stones and lift them into place? You'll see them make baskets used to carry everything from mortar to herbs and soils used to make paint pigments.
Wear comfortable shoes appropriate for slogging around an active construction site. There are signs in French and English, and some workers speak English, but the site is in France. They do explain what, why, and how they do things mostly in French (it's their country). They will try to explain in English if you ask.
Gregory Schmidt — Google review
Amazing place to visit. It takes you back in time in the 13th century. It's great to see in the 21st century a medieval construction made without modern tools nor techniques. It is also very instructive place for the kids, the guides and workers are kind, friendly and answering all your questions. There is also a restaurant in place with kind personal and simple but good food and snacks.
Krisz Edith — Google review
This amazing place is being built since 1997 with the same techniques of the XIII century. No new machinery at all!
A great place for discovering skills almost lost with the industrial revolution. You can find blacksmiths, stone carvers, wood turning (all by hand), wood carving, pottery for tiles, bowls, and much more, a watermill for making flour, horses and much more!
A great place for the kids (and adults) to discover the medieval times and how they were making objects and a castle all by hand!
Great for a picnic, but if you find yourself willing to treat yourself there is also a restaurant. Try the veg burger is very good! (And I love meat! A lot!)

An amazing place through and through. A trip back in time in both its presentation and its construction. Seeing the different jobs at work in generally period accurate attire and with era correct methodology was just as amazing to view as the castle. Only gripe is that many of the signs are in french only, forcing you to translate with your phone. It still was worth it though, and if you speak french and enjoy the medieval period, I cannot recommend it enough.
Andrew J — Google review
Was interesting to see how an old village would have been set up, with a blacksmith, baker, herb garden, animals being raised etc. The work on the buildings is quite good and apparently sticking to old-school methods, but a big draw card was watching it actually being done, and this wasn't happening. Theŕe were a handful of volunteers in costum wandering around but you weren't likely to see them in action. Maybe we went on a slow "work" day.

We visited Parc de Felines whilst on holiday, as our daughter loves cats - she was not disappointed, and neither were we! We saw so many beautiful animals, living in large enclosures with freedom to roam - we are very glad we got to experience seeing them all. It was a fascinating day. We also went to Monkey World, which was quieter and smaller, but ran out of time to see the parrots. The train ride and the 4D cinema at Parc de Felines are both well worth visiting. The staff were polite and helpful, despite us being far from fluent in French. Would recommend this place to anyone!

Winter Bren — Google review
Park is well organised but the map given to visitors needs improving as it has a bunch of logos on it but no legend for those logos.
The train is quite good.
The tiger enclosure looks small and the tiger a bit sad. One of the smaller cats seemed a bit out of sorts and kept going around in circles. The lion enclosure is quite big which is nice to see but they are a big group.
The lemur enclosure was interesting. The guide told us there were about 7 lemurs that were excluded from the main group because they had been touched by visitors. You see in the enclosure the lemurs are friendly and walk around visitors to say hello and come right up close without barriers. One even jumped on a baby stroller so it is very easy to touch them. I was so stressed out the whole time someone would touch these curious lemurs and they would be pariahs. Why did the park not take this risk into account when designing the enclosure? You cannot trust all visitors to behave. There needs to be protection between visitors and the lemurs, like glass or a barrier.
The monkey enclosure was super cool I have to say. And I really enjoyed the talk.
We also went to the parrot park which is a 10 minute walk. It was quite nice.

I would definitely recommend this place for family trips.
There are a few food stands and one restaurant which have kid-friendly menu (sausages, hot dogs, waffles, ice cream, fries, etc). Of course there are toilets, which were quite messy when I visited this park.
Also, you can ride a train around the park every 30 minutes for free!
Another fun thing is the free 4D cinema, which is right next to the train station. The short movie was quite boring (for me, as an adult), but the kids liked it.
And of course, there are many felines. They are categorized by their original continents. And there are also lemurs :).
Overall, it was a pleasant visit.
PS: please!!! make more of mamul souvenirs! I love manuls, and I was quite disappointed about the lack of souvenirs with their faces.

A very good alternative to a day at Euro Disney for those who don't like rides, yet in easy reach should you be dropping off those who do. We were impressed at the scale of the Parc - lots to see, and no hurry to do so. Recommended to see the goats early (buy the bag of popcorn but keep it very high, and expect them to calm down only when the bag itself is empty and eaten!), then take the train ride to get a sense of the scale of the place, plus some of the cats are best seen from the train. Then go explore on foot, taking time to locate the cats where they are well camouflaged. If needed, there is a train stop at the farthest edge from where you can let the train take the strain on the way back. The ride back has an educational element and (spoiler) some sounds effects. Especially noteworthy are the very cute Lemurs and the pride of lions at the far end of the park, which can be very well seen from the impressive walkway and towers. For those whose French is not yet perfect, there are very good bilingual signs to help the English speakers understand the detail. A great day out. PS: There is a related park focussed on monkeys, a short walk away: see photo for price list for visiting just the cats or monkeys too.

The big cats have very spacious places to stay. As a result, they are sometimes difficult to spot, but that adds to the safari feeling ;) Take the time to see everything, for younger kids it can be a lot of walking. There is also a train that allows you to see many of the big cats. To see the little cats you have to take the walking route. Overall it took us about 4 to 5 hours to see everything.
All animals have shelters where they can hide well if they want to, for this purpose houses and night pens have often been built for the small cats where you as a visitor have a good view. In the middle of the day they use these places to rest.
The cats I've seen looked healthy and showed no signs of stress or boredom.
On the signs at the enclosures you will find fun and useful information about the animal species and also the names of the animals that live in that enclosure.
In the petting zoo you can feed the goats popcorn, and you can also feed the carp that swim around the lemur island with this.

Great park, we have been here twice. It’s a quite natural parc without a lot of artificial stuff. Animals seems very healthy and relaxed here. Be careful if you want to see everything, taking the train is not the best option, and walking will require at least 3 hours to see everything. It’s very tiring.

Great zoo with plenty of space for the animals, the train ride is helpful to see the extent of the park as it passes the large enclosures.
There is a 2 Park / 1 day ticket available with the adjacent primate Zoo, and a 2 day ticket can be purchased for a small fee. Well worth a visit, just make sure you bring a camera with a long lens! :-)
Château de Fontainebleau is a grand former royal residence with a rich history dating back to the 12th century. It has been expanded over time by different monarchs and now houses four museums and luxurious apartments. The chateau has played a significant role in French history, being the site of important events such as the Edict of Fontainebleau and the Treaty of Fontainebleau.
This is incredible place. Much od everything belongs to Napoleon 1st. You can see how his rooms was arranged, his familly tree, many of his personal stuff. Don’t miss jard which is also fantastic with mini lake in it.

Just amazing to say the least. The rooms and wood cravings on the walls are wonderful. There were lots of rooms to tour. We were getting tired after awhile. We got the audio guided tour, but it was hard for us to find the rooms we were in. It was probably just us. You might not have any problem. We were able to get a wheelchair for my wife. The admission for us was free. The audio guided tour was 6 Euros each. The grounds looked great from the windows, but the train that takes you around wasn't working today. Maybe it was because of it being raining day. It was worth going to, even with visiting Versailles the other day.

We opted to go see the Chateau instead of Versailles due to time restraints and we are so glad we did.

What a fantastic chateau to experience. The gorgeous rooms where King Louis III was born, the Marie Antoinette bed that she never got to sleep in, the amazing halls and chambers of over 800 years of France’s kings and queens who lived there. I enjoyed it much more than Versailles and easily spent in half a day. Unfortunately more than half of the buildings were closed and the Musée Chinoise was not open and the Golden Gate was under renovation.
Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte is a stunning 17th-century chateau surrounded by formal gardens, offering a remarkable blend of architecture and natural beauty. The interior is steeped in history, with well-preserved decor elements that transport visitors to the XVIII century. The audio guide provides an engaging tour, complementing the overall experience. A highlight is the impressive kitchen, adding to the chateau's allure. Visitors can also enjoy dining at the on-site restaurant and bar area.

It was a great experience to be out in the French countryside and learn a bit of history without the massive crowds similar to Versailles. Taking a golf buggy around the grounds was a fun way to see everything and take pictures as quickly as you can. Food was very traditional French fare in the restaurant, which was an experience by itself (Andouille sausages, for example).
A must for anyone who wants to experience chateaus without being overwhelmed by the crowds.

The audio tour is particularly enjoyable, offering fun and insightful narratives about the historical figures. It's an engaging way to dive into the castle's past. The interior is a visual treat, with each room meticulously decorated.
The bar/restaurant by the entrance is a gem, serving delicious food that perfectly rounds off the visit. Highly recommend for a day out exploring European history.

The castle is gorgeous. I definitely recommend visiting it on a beautiful day as opposed to a rainy one. Seems like there will be more to do especially in the garden. Be mindful it is Hardly accessible for wheelchairs and you will have to leave strollers at the entrance.

A very beautiful chateau! I appreciate how the displays in the chateau have English translations as well. The Christmas light show and displays were magnificent! The staffs of the chateau were friendly as well.

This place has done an outstanding job of making the holiday visit spectacular. Officially now my favorite place to visit in the Paris and nearby area. Thank you for all your hard work and sharing this beautiful place with us.

How there are not more visitors at this chateau is completely beyond me, it is unquestionably superior to so many of the larger chateaus that receive more visitors. It is such a marvel of architecture and the way it compliments the gardens is perfection. The inside of the house is full of history with a good tour.
A walk to the Hercules statue is an absolute must and not too far. The view from the statue down over the chateau is incredible and really gives perspective.
The little kiosk outside does lovely crepes as well!

One of the most beautiful castles I visited so far. The audio guide is a must to really enjoy the experience. It is not crowded, so the visit is very comfortable and you can really enjoy it. I suggest to rent a golf car and take a tour of the garden

There is a lot of decor elements in very good condition. The interior light also creats a magic atmosphere of XVIII century. The audio guide is a good accompaniment to the visit and it's not boring at all. However the most impressive part is a kitchen of the chateau.
There is also restaurant and bar zone on the chateau area. Highly recommended to plan your visit for candles night pick nick during summer time.

Photographing weddings at Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte in France is a truly exceptional experience.
The breathtaking 17th-century architecture and the magnificent formal gardens offer an unparalleled romantic setting.
The grandeur and elegance of the château, along with its beautifully manicured landscapes, provide a stunning backdrop for capturing timeless moments.
Each wedding at Vaux-le-Vicomte is like stepping into a fairy tale, making it an extraordinary location for any wedding photographer.

Disneyland Paris is an entertainment hub that comprises of family-friendly rides, shows and costumed characters. The complex also includes hotels for a complete experience. Visitors can take advantage of weekday visits for photogenic opportunities while weekend visits offer more fun activities. Purchasing tickets in advance provides access to special offers, promotions and costumes for children and seniors. Easy transportation options are available through Google maps or other sources.
What a beautiful place to have fun.
If you go on a weekday, you will still be able to take a lot of good photos. If you go on weekends there will be more fun activities.
In terms of buying tickets, you should buy tickets in advance to enjoy special offers or promotions or dresses for children and the elderly.
Public transportation is also very convenient, you just need to search on Google map or ask anyone to go here very easily.

First of all this is a really great park, I visited twice and every time it is like a dream come true. Excellent decorations, extraordinary and fast rides, literally one of the best places on earth no joke. Anyone can find something in this park that will blow their mind and be their thing. Anything in there is possible.
Now the part that I am very unfortunate to write about, since my first visit there, something huge happened. They cancelled the fast-pass. To those who don't know it's a free way of "scheduling" yourself on a later hour so you can enter within 10 MAX. What they did instead is crazy (understandable because of financial reasons), you can pay 8€ per ride in order to get in quickly OR pay 1 7 0 € for a fast pass in multiple rides, that's wrong! So what? Now I can enjoy the park fully by paying almost twice the price of a ticket! Queues on a very normal weekday in September were between 40-70 minutes per ride, imagine wasting 4 hours just on standing! A not so financially stable family that would dream about coming here would waste a third of the day of a very expensive ticket on standing???
Well, I guess that is what helps Disneyland financially but that's devastating. I enjoyed it anyway and recommend you to visit and experience a one in a lifetime experience.

Fantastic experience, except restaurants and toilets are very bad and dirty. Parc is so clean, very impressive.
Lots of guests and queues, but opportunity to buy fast track will make you skip the lines.
Brings lots of snacks for the queues, if you have small kids.
You can bring your own lunch and soft drinks to save money, there are benches where you can enjoy your brought food. And believe me the food there isn’t good at all so bring something with you like grab and go.
Download the Disneyland app to have a map on your phone, where you can easily filter, whether you are looking for a toilet, a show or restaurant.
In the Disney app you can also see waiting times, so it isn’t necessary to download the waiting time app. I recommend that you do research in advance, so you have an idea of what you would like to see. For instance there was 90 min waiting for having a picture with a princess.
If you only have one day, I read that you should go for the Disneyland park. But I see why, they recommend that you use several days, as you spend a lot of time standing in lines.

Happiest place on earth !
Me and my partner loved every minute of it, soon as you walk through the gates you get this overwhelming feeling of excitement. My partner who is not a big Disney fan was surprised how much he enjoyed himself. The food was really good, especially the hot dogs and big pretzels!
We went on many rides, the lines for the rides weren’t overly long. October is a great time to go!

Disneyland Paris is like stepping into a magical world. It's a place where every corner is filled with fun and excitement. The rides are thrilling and make you feel like you're part of a story. The colorful parades and shows make your eyes sparkle, and meeting your favorite Disney characters is like a dream come true.
The park is big and beautiful, with lots of places to explore, like castles and fairy tale lands. The food is yummy, with treats that look like they came from a storybook. It is not just a park, it's a place where happy memories are made.

7th trip to Disney Paris, and I still love it. ❤️ The park is so beautiful well maintained the staff work tirelessly to keep it so tidy. Our favourite time to visit is November with the Christmas decorations, but this January trip was dry clear and beautiful. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The meal we had at the ratatouille restaurant was wonderful. I honestly can't find and fault. There was some rides down for maintenance but to be expected in the quiet season. We will be back!

Simply an amazing place. If you want to see a significant part of the park when you arrive, you should reserve at least 1 full day. If you want to participate in all activities, I recommend you get a priority pass. Otherwise, you'll be waiting too long in line. Be aware that you will be standing in line for at least 1 hour for popular activities. Pass priority tickets have separate entrances and you won't have to wait more than 10-15 minutes. Don't think it's a place for kids, there are more adults than kids and you will have a great experience.

Great couple of days at Disneyland Paris. You can easily do both parks over 2 days. I can recommend the Tower of Terror, Thunder Mountain, Phantom Manor, Ratatouille ride and Pirates of the Caribbean. If you suffer from motion sickness I would seriously avoid Star Wars hyperspace mountain, I have never felt so sick from a ride before! It is just too quick for the short sharp bursts and your head gets rattled round a bit between the shoulder pads. April was a good month to visit and didn’t have to wait long for the rides. The park was clean, plenty of places for food and drink but it is just the same food repeated in the different cafes. Merchandise is pricey so make sure you save up!! For the park tickets I used a website called Attraction Tickets who were cheapest, easy to order and got them to download to my phone within 10 minutes. Hotel - we stayed at Adagio Serris Val d Europe which is only a 15 min walk or free shuttle buses stop outside. I will definitely be staying at this hotel again and the surrounding area is brilliant and includes a shopping mall and designer outlet! There is direct transport from centre of Paris and then from park to airport. You couldn’t ask for more!

Mehhh….
For starters what I can say is, the lines were extremely disorganized when it came to entering the park. We purchased a one day ticket and boy I felt like it was their first day doing this. Anyway once inside it was beautiful and “magical.” The employees were not so polite and felt like they just wanted to do their job and go home.
The app was such a huge help and I also paid for a few rides premier access. (So completely worth skipping the lines to some rides.) The parades were very cool and I think that was my kids favorite thing at Disney. Be prepared to pick a spot at least an hour ahead to get a good view, as people start lining the street very early prior to the parades. If you forget your portable charging box (as I did) they have a charging room by the buzz light year ride. It’s actually inside of the location where the buzz light year restaurant is.
We brought a few snacks and drinks in our backpacks, but I also purchased several meals and desserts. I personally felt like the food wasn’t that expensive and was edible especially when you have been walking around the park all day. Amazing food, no, good food for hungry people, yes.
Overall I can cross this off my list and say we visited. Would I return again, absolutely not.

Despite it being very busy, I had such an amazing experience. Every cast member I interacted with was delightful. Everybody seems so happy to be there. We went on Monday and Tuesday (no holiday) and queues varied from 20-50 minutes, which was quite alright. Even if you're not doing rides, the park is great to walk around in. There's always something to see and you're really never bored.
I had some very bad interactions with guests, they can be quite inconsiderate and rude at times. But that is of course not the park's fault. Be prepared to encounter some selfish people though 😅
Prices were high, as was to be expected. But I must say that some things were strangely priced. I purchased a medium sized plush for €26 when there were minis retailing for €20, to give an example. The food was surprisingly good! Nothing to write home about, but I didn't expect this great quality.
I was very sad to return home and I'm already considering booking my next trip!

I came back a few times after that and everything still is as magical and amazing.

We had booked a 2-day ticket for both parks in advance, then spent a full day at Disneyland and a full day at Studios. Beautiful and quite exhausting. Good preparation is important - snacks, water, comfortable shoes and sunscreen. Plan your time wisely, it can gey very exhausting. Food and drinks are available in small snack bars or restaurants (don't forget to make reservations), prices for them are quite high.
There are a lot of stores with souvenirs, so plan a little extra money.
Queues at the rides can be very long, sometimes up to and over an hour. We occasionally bought the paid Premier Access to skip waiting time. A quick option can also be the Single Ride entrance, you don't sit next to your partner, but you don't have to wait in line as long.
After 9 p.m., the queues get much shorter. If you don't necessarily want to watch the fireworks every night (or are satisfied with back rows), it's the best option to wait in line only for a short time.
Make nice memories and have fun!

Disneyland Paris is a magical wonderland that exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I walked through its iconic gates, I was transported to a world of enchantment and joy.
The attention to detail throughout the park is truly remarkable. Whether it's the dazzling Cinderella Castle or the whimsical Main Street, USA, every corner of Disneyland Paris is a visual feast. The park's cleanliness and well-maintained grounds add to the overall charm.
Now, let's talk about the attractions – they are nothing short of spectacular. From thrilling rides like Space Mountain to beloved classics like It's a Small World, there's something for everyone. The quality and creativity behind each experience are evident, and it's easy to see why Disneyland Paris is a top-tier theme park.
The staff at Disneyland Paris are the real magic-makers. They are friendly, helpful, and genuinely committed to creating memorable experiences. Whether you're interacting with characters, asking for directions, or dining at one of the park's restaurants, the staff's dedication shines through.
Disneyland Paris isn't just for kids; it's a place where people of all ages can relive their favorite Disney moments and create new memories. It's a world where dreams come true, and I can't recommend it enough. If you're considering a visit, prepare to be enchanted and amazed at Disneyland Paris – it's a journey you won't want to end!

The best place for family adventure! It is our second visit of this amazing park. In my opinion it is better to take your kids about 5 years, so you can fully ride on the best attractions in the park and get high emotions of being together with your kids. In the end of September it was really comfort weather, but so crowded. So for the future it is better to buy priority access at least on several attractions.
All staff work on a high level, they are really doing their job great!
Absolutely we'll be back in future!

This place is amazing! I really enjoyed it, although I'm an adult. It brings all my childhood memories back! One day is certainly not enough to discover the whole park! I recommend at least 2 days tickets, especially with smaller children. The queue could be very long at some attractions, but it worths every penny! The whole place is magical! 🥰😍

Brilliant trip! Two adults and two kids (3 yo & 6 yo). Prepare to wait an hour or more for popular rides. Characters don't walk around like they used to. They had session times they entered for photos. Mickey Mouse was 90 mins at one point.
Xmas is magical there and the parade is not to be missed. Just wrap up warm. Expect to burn a hole in your pocket.
Toad in the hole did fish and chips. Very good food for the price and pretty good service as well. Certainly need two days for one park - one day to queue for the rides and another go walk around it all.
Must do - it's a small world and Peter Pans flight.

Had an absolute blast with my Family.
Key rides were absolutely amazing, especially when you are travelling with an Autistic child... They really were very helpful and understanding. The only disappointment was the merchandise shops..
Gutted as I wanted to buy my daughter something special for her birthday, she wasn't thrilled either by the selection.
Walt Disney area was great and so was Disney Park... Not cheap but really enjoyed ourselves

After being in Tokyo and Orlando it was not not impressive. The Sleeping Beauty Castle was very nice and seemed refreshed much the park seemed in need of a bit of cleaning up and touch up. Overly crowded. No chance to get reservations for a sit down restaurant a week in advance and the lines were between 45-90 mins. Just not a value added experience. When we have to line up over an hour in advance for a show this is not worth the money. The village is way past it's prime and needs the construction that was ongoing badly. Recommend waiting at least a year before coming. Two day should be enough but the line delays were crazy. Positive note. Staff is always amazing and the night drone show and castle display were the highlight of the trip. Find your piece of asphalt early....

It's a beautiful park with a lot of attractions. A lot of attractions have a long waiting time. For kids under 3 years old not a lot to do or see, I think. If you want to save money bring food from home. The app is very nice to know where to go and how long to wait on the lines. We were there on a day during the week in March. The end of the day it was raining a lot. There are also stroller to rent. I recommend buy tickets before and if possible sleep there one night for the whole attractions to be worth complete.

First time I’ve been to a Disney theme park and I was thoroughly impressed. The park is kept meticulously clean and the build quality of the rides and theme park is the highest I’ve ever seen.
We paid for the VIP tour and our tour guide Virginie was amazing. She managed to cram in many rides and shows for us in the one day. She was also able to book a restaurant reservation for us despite it showing as fully booked on the website. I highly recommend the premier pass or vip tour because the lines are really long.
The park is crowded but manageable. Most of the park is suitable for young kids. They have a lot of family friendly rides. They don’t have as many rides for adults. The park is very stroller friendly with many ramps for use.

So far we've been to 3 different Disney Parks and this is our second favorite! The design of the park in some ways is way prettier than the park's in the U.S.
They have two options of pre-paid fast passes if you'd like.
It's pretty easy to get to from Paris.
Tips:
*Make sure to check out the Dragon under the castle 😉
*Food: If you didn't know - Disney parks are expensive! Yes, Even the food. a tiny pizza, salad, drink and ice cream cost 16€ The food in the park disappointed us. In the US, food is a big part of the Disney experience. I read online that they have Dole Whip, but they don't. We looked! We were very frustrated since no one warned us that even though the park closes at 11:00 p.m., the stores and kiosks with food and snacks close at 20:00-21:00!!!! We found ourselves looking for food. It was very upsetting.

Very big waiting times for popular attraction 30-40 minutes so you need more than one day to visit Disney park . I recommend using the app to check waiting time before going to an attraction and also to find it faster . Lot’s of restaurants and shops so you will find everything you need .

Disneyland Paris is truly a magical destination that exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we entered the park, we were transported to a world of enchantment and wonder.

Disneyland is a magical Place, it transmit excitement and happiness to both children and adults. You can visit it whenever, although I have to admit, it’s a bit better during the summer season when days are a bit sunnier and you can stay for longer (closing time 11 pm). There are a few queues, for both the entrance and the games. Just have patience and enjoy the cool scenes that are all over the park. Waiting time for games can go from 5 minutes to 1 hour, you can either check the app to see what games have the least waiting time, or you can get the pass that let’s you skip the line (the ticket is way more expensive). We only stayed for one day and I believe it’s enough to visit the park. There are lots restaurants and souvenirs shops. You can even buy a pop corn basket, which you can refill at the pop corn stands. Most of the games are very chill and for children, but there are a few that are fun and thrilling. If you are staying in Paris, there is a train from Gare the Lyon that takes you exactly at the entrance of the park. Overall I recommend at all ages. Children have fun and we adults enjoy the feeling of being children again, at least for one day :).

Amazing experience! The magic there is real! If you get a day pass for 2 parks you can visit Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studio - you can enter after 45 minutes again as many times as you like during that day, from one park to another! Entrance to the shops and Disney Village is free - you have a middle area where you can shop at Disney Store even without having bought a ticket! I found that helpful!
The dancing parades they do are so lovely! Will definitely visit again! ❤️✨🧚🦄

We visited here on New years Eve. For a family experience, i would highly recommend it. However, it's not without its drawbacks.
Firstly, it is a hell of a lot of walking when here from open to close. There is a lot of standing for queues, so make sure to have comfy clothes and shoes on. It can be cold in winter months, so bring a coat that you can easily remove if you get too hit in a queue.
Make sure to prepare for paying a lot for food or sneak your own in. They do tell you no picnics allowed in side the park. But it is easy to stash sandwiches in.
People queue up for events hours early, so either be prepared to do the same or get a bad spot for them, i.e. parades, fireworks, and so on.
Rides are not adult centric, so there is not a big adrenaline boost from this park. The park is not for that, really it's for the kids. They will love the experience, and two of the coasters are great fun, thunderloop, and hyperspace.
Parking is easy enough, costs a pretty penny, though.
The fireworks show was fantastic, as was the new years ones too.
Have a great time if you do go!

I visited on a Sunday, early April. The queues weren't crazy, plenty of rides we could get on within 10 minutes (pirates of the Caribbean, Cars, etc).

Plenty of food options (including several local French cuisines).

Parc Walt Disney Studios is one of the two theme parks that make up Disneyland Paris, featuring areas dedicated to movie and TV related attractions. It may not be as large as the main park, however it offers rides more suitable for younger children such as the popular Cars ride. The Hollywood Tower and Ratatouille are considered to be two of the main attractions in this park, which boasts a beautiful setting and aims to create an atmosphere reminiscent of Walt Disney's production studios.
Not as big as the main park but I found this to be better for my 2 year old as the rides were more to his liking and he really enjoyed the Cars ride, he had to go on it countless times. Unfortunately the section where they did the stunt show wasn’t open which was a shame as my son would have loved that show but he enjoyed it nonetheless.

This is not my first amusement park and I have something to compare. If we consider that this park is 30 years old, then a lot can be done indulgence. Compared to Disney World in Orlando, this Disneyland in Paris is nowhere near.
There are a lot of old attractions, with old chairs, against which the head beats very hard during the attraction. I think that for children under 10-12 years old it can still be interesting. The attraction Flight to the Moon, converted into Star Wars, looks unconvincing and ridiculous. We visited 2 parks here. Here are the attractions that are definitely worth a visit: Hotel Hollywood, Ratatouille, Cars, Star Tour, Pirates, RC Racer, Riverboat, Parachute drop.
Convenient location, right next to the metro station. There are fountains with drinking water in the park.
Park security is good. We had a Swiss folding knife with us, which was not allowed at the entrance. We left it in the luggage room at the metro station.

It is not the main park but in my opinion it contains two of the main attractions of Disneyland Paris, the Hollywood Tower and the Ratatouille.
The park is very beautiful and the atmosphere it intends to create is that we are in the Walt Disney Studios.
You can easily visit in the morning and in the afternoon go to the main park.

Very nice experience.
I suggest to buy the fast line pass. Because the lines and amount of people are huge. You can only enjoy 4 or 5 of the games because of the crouds. The least game to wait for without the pass is 60 minutes to 70 minutes. I regret not having the pass.

Great short weekend getaway!! A couple of things:
1. You must buy your tickets in advance
2. It’s not too big and not too small
3. Disneyland Paris has their own champagne and it is a must try for all adults!!!
4. Wear good walking shoes because you’ll be walking a ton!
5. The food and snacks are a must try treat
6. It’s mostly in French (for people that are curious) very little things have other language options
One of the happiest places on earth!!!

Extremely underrated park. I absolutely loved the Ratatouille Ride, absolutely loved the thrill and the excitement with the Tower Of Terror.
My favourite ride was the Tram Tour. That rude was so informative and so fun. It renewed my love for cinema and film making.

I'm a huge Disney fan and have been to both US parks multiple times, so it bothers me to not give 5 stars. The reason for withholding one is due to the size. It's a very small park and you can do everything in about a half day. Plans to add lands and expansions will help. What is there is really nice and the Avengers coaster is a lot of fun. It's a nice park, just not one you'll spend a while day at.

It was great to re-live my childhood while being here. What astonished me was attention to detail and absolute perfection in terms of atmosphere. Few rides broke down, which is understandable. I had only one problem with the park, and it's a big one: despite the astounding atmosphere, I was quickly and often disillusioned by cash-grab attempts at every turn. Official merchandise is ridiculously expensive to a point where I wouldn't even consider buying anything. Queues at every ride kept reminding me that this is the punishment for not paying an additional 200€ for Premier pass. I would have definitely left more money in the park if everything wasn't so ridiculously expensive.

Was great to see the Avengers Campus on our first visit since it opened. The characters and shows are good fun to watch. The new rides on campus are good. Spiderman web ride is worth the wait but avengers flight force was the best.

Small but fun Disney park, could be done in one day no problem. Best ride would be Crush’s Coaster, but plenty of others too. Avengers Campus is really well done, and the forthcoming Frozen land will no doubt be amazing.

I visited this park in November and in January.
I can say it's the worst disneypark. I wouldn't recommend you pay for it unless you get it by your stay in the hotel.
The attractions are not well mentioned, and you can do everything you like in the afternoon.
There are only 2 attractions that are worth to visit, these are ratatouille and the Hollywood tower. Spiderman can be fun, but I can't say it's something special. They avengers rollercoaster is not a piece of art, but it can be fun to do (for the coaster itself and the iron man inside).
I really did not like the crush coaster. It feels like the biggest self insult of disney. Their are like 2 themed areas inside the coaster. The rest of the coaster is half black and absolutely not disney quality but more that of a cheap park.
What about the Marvel extension? It's.. pretty underwhelming, all I can say.
That you can see some heroes is fun. Also, the Avengers rollercoaster looks fun at night.
The park feels like a full identity crisis. I also hope that this will be solved with future extensions.
But for now... the park is only worth visiting for the shows, ratatouille and hollywood tower.

So much fun! Attractions, rides, shows, characters; Disneyland has it all. Be prepared to queue for the fun though.

Amazing theme park!
Smaller one than Disneyland but pretty amazing with great atractions, Marvel atractions with The characters around, Ratatouille zone, and the Amazing Tower!
The entrance IS so good!
Has restaurants, shops, atractions and many more!
No doubt it's so proud also to worked on some of The movies of The studio!

LOVED. Definitely buy tickets in advance. I would also really recommend buying the rapid pass because I was waiting in line for so long. It is okay without it... Just make sure to have a charger with you. Also!! Bring a backpack. When you go on rides, you will have to put your belongings behind your legs so the bigger the better.
