Winter Efteling! | Maddie Moate

Greg and I first visited Efteling in the summer but we (and you!) enjoyed our trip so much we decided to go back when the park had been transformed for winter! I hope you enjoy Winter Efteling as much as we did! Let me know in the comments what your favourite part of this wintery vlog is!

    You should have a guide trough the park. Who can tell you more about characters, people who spoke in the voices of the characters, etc. Cause the Baron you see, that old guy, was spoken in by an actor who was in a childrens series called Bassie and Adriaan. Stuff like that, how something was build, etc.

    The Efteling is sheer magic. It has neither the fastest rides, or the highest or the loudest or the biggest. And there is no need for any of that because it is the overall experience of this park that is truly unique. The attention to detail and the magical feel of it all. I am so happy that we live nearby so we get to visit this park twice a year, once with the family and then again with friends. As a child my parents whould call me and my brother in sick for school. (the school condoned it, like a public secret, many parents did the same ) so we could go there during schooldays when it was a very quiet. It is a part of every dutch kids childhood. I am very grateful for this. Being forty years now, i can't tell you how lovely it is to see young children in the park experience that same kind of wonder when i was their age. I really like watching your vlogs Maddie and Greg, it gets me all excited and giddy and i can't wait to go to the Efteling again! Keep it up and best wishes from the Netherlands!

    Oh. Wow. What an utterly brilliant video 😳. In and of itself video and editingwise, you guys' extremely contagious enthausiasm and honest happiness with the trip and each other, the snow.. well all the things clearly visible for all. But imagine the added deepness for a Dutch adult who went to the Efteling as (early) childhood treats in the 80's and 90's.. seeing how everything is still there, very well maintained, all the crucial memory cornerstones still intact and the park still being upgraded, and it being enjoyed by 'people like me/us'. I already know of a couple of early 30s Amsterdam couples, with and without childrend that will be going to the (winter) Efteling because of this video now hahaha. There's literally no way the Efteling or any ad-agency they'd hire could make an ad for the park coming even close to this themselves. Thankyou for the retardedly happy grin I have on my face now haha. 😊 And a happy 2019 with lots of well deserved succes to you guys!
