Im going on April 24th (Wednesday) 2024 will it be busy or pretty quiet as I dont wanna buy an express pass when the queues are short, cheers :)
I can't imagine the all-around pain of having your first ever PortAventura experience, wandering over to Furious Baco, waiting 2 HOURS AND 50 MINUTES only to have a ride on an outer seat in the back row. I think I'd want to start legal proceedings to be honest 🤣

@@billybigballs196 Hi! You can still buy tickets on the gate though they can be up to £20 more expensive than booking in advance depending on how busy it is, hope this helps!
Thank you once again. It's such a shame about the poor operations. I would really like to see you interview the Director of PortAventura and hear how they plan to resolve these issues. When you interviewed Atlon Towers I got a lot of respect for their new leadership team and their openness to listen.

Awesome vlog from one of Europe's best theme parks! I have to say, 11:30 - that is just hilarious!! How that boat was allowed to run is beyond me... the genuine reaction of shock from both Shawn and Charlotte really made that scene so much funnier! 😂
Can’t believe you had to pay €120 extra on top of your park entry ticket to be able to ride and have a better experience. I’ve travelled the world riding coasters over the last 40 years, in 136 different countries and counting ( Yes, I am that old, 52 now 😂) and I will never go to Port Aventura again. Been there once and only managed to get on 5 rides, so it worked out approx €10 a ride 😮. Glad you had a good time in the end but €110 per person including park entry is so expensive

You know a ride is intense/forceful when the seat comes off. And out of all the rides it could happen on, I would have never have guessed a flume ride. Also, if I do go to this park at some point in the future, I will get the express passes because I don’t want to end up waiting for possibly 3 hours. I’m very sorry about the operations that you guys have seen. Hopefully they sort it out in the future.
I just absolutely love your videos! This honesty and finally seeing someone speaking up about not just bad but probably by far the worst operations I've ever seen in a Themepark just feels so calming. I think this really kills the experience

Love your videos! We're just back from a fantastic week staying in one of the resort hotels, which meant we could spend the day chilling by the pool/beach/bar(!) and then head into the park after dark. The place closes at 10.30pm, so with MUCH shorter queues, we could get in a good 3-4 rides every night. I agree with you that the park looks absolutely beautiful at night and the views of Salou from Shammy B and Dragon Khan... chef's kiss!

Beautiful two day vlog from Port Adventurer in Spain. It must have been stinking hot out there with this current heatwave affecting parts of Europe. Just a shame it’s not here in the UK. Shambhala and Dragon Khan just two amazing coasters plus numerous smaller family rides. The water rides must have been particularly welcome to ride in the heat. Shame about the poor operations. Awesome firework display at the end.

Went Port Aventura in April and the main problems were queue jumping (almost every single queue multiple people pushing past to meet friends further up the line) and bad operations. Went 2 days and just like you guys needed to buy express the second day just to get everything done 😢. Aside from that though the parks beautiful x

Been to PortAventura many times and have never used an express pass, but 5 minutes for Furius Baco instead of two and a half hours is mad. Worth the price! It's a shame that it's run so poorly though. This park is so dear to me (grew up around there) and love Shawn's and Charlotte's excitement for it, but operations are indeed poor. Still appreciate these vlogs and the good bits a lot though. Can't wait to go back.

Minion blast just soft opened. It looks pretty good. You can film the entire queue just not the ride itself. It looks really good inside hard to believe the shrek show was in there just months ago. They also switched out the donkey meet and greet for other stuff like Sing and the minions. The characters go through a door coming out to music and back in. It’s a bit simpler that way. Donkey was a remote puppet that had a voice box and some movement via servos. The operator would speak into a control system and out would come donkey’s voice. It’s same idea with the spitting fountain as they simply talk into a control system and push a button for water to fire.

Just had my first ever trip to PA. Unfortunately couldn’t get on Shambhala, possibly my #1 bucket list coaster, because the restraints wouldn’t fit over my thick thighs. Also picked up some bruised ribs on the red side of Stampida! However, I have a new #1 in Red Force. Never felt anything like it. Also loved Baco, Dragon Khan and Uncharted.

I’ve always enjoyed Tutuki Splash! Was disappointed when Busch Gardens Tampa removed their similar ride!
Great honest vlog. We’ve gone for a week for the past 3 trips and stayed in the hotel, so paid for express for the whole week because my husband is terrible at waiting. Shame about the boat ride in the china area, that used to be so good. I love tomahawk. Shame stampeda isn’t as smooth. I went on Grand National a couple of weeks ago though and it was so shakey I thought body parts might fall off. The water by Shambhala is looking murky. That shop by Angkor is great it’s the only theme park shop I’ve ever bought anything in (an elephant ornament). The shows are amazing but the hotel entertainment is rubbish. They do a dine around option where if you go half or full board you can dine in the park which is great. We’ve eaten in all the restaurants and like the Mexican one best. Does the bang bang show still happen in far west?

I think I was lucky, because I went there for the first time in August and the queues weren’t as bad. Some of them were huge and it was taking a long time to dispatch the cars, but I kept checking the app to see the waiting times and it was worth it! Furious Baco had a 3h wait all day and then all of a sudden it was 50min. I ran there and only had to wait 10min in the end! 😂 And I was also lucky because my first ever ride at Shambhala was in a first row seat (I was at the single rider lane)! *sorry my english is quite bad
Loved this series, we've got 2 weeks booked for August, hoping to take advantage of the late evenings. Is filming on rides allowed? If so what's the requirements?

Never been to PortAventura. Always fancied going. As a teacher, I can only visit these places during peak times like the summer holidays. If the operations are just bad and pretty much require you to buy an express pass, then I simply just won’t ever visit the place and will go somewhere else for my next holiday

Great vlogs from PA. I love the park however I do agree operations are some of the worst I’ve ever experienced. Furthermore, the amount of queue/line jumping I’ve personally witnessed is shocking. Stampida is brutally rough however it is nonetheless very popular …. The queues attest to this. Furious Baco…. inside seats, lean forward and you may have a bearable ride lol. As prior noted, I love the park….. night time rides on Shambala are breathtaking, the theming and weather makes it a memorable experience. But and it’s a considerably large but…. The park could be so much better. Controversial comment perhaps as I’ve not experienced Uncharted. PA may have been wiser to delay Uncharted for a year or so and re-direct funds to Stampida and Furious Baco (new trains for both and a full re-track for the woodie). I’m contemplating returning next year however I do have more than a few doubts as to whether I should re-direct my budget 🤔. Keep up the great work S and C 🎢👍
