6 stars, one of the best attractions we have done. We spent the whole day there, with 3 kids 5 - 6.5 years old, from 10 am till the park was closed at 5 pm. We were a little concerned by the fee negative reviews, yet were happy to find out that the place is great.

We were there on a Sat, end of August, and while there were many people in the park, it didn't feel too crowded. A few attractions had a waiting time of 30 minutes during peak times, yet many others had no waiting time at all. For the first 1.5 hours there was no waiting time at all.

A few of the attractions that were closed in the morning, were opened in the afternoon.

There was a decent number of attractions that required jumping and climbing so it ended up being quite an active day (vs. just sitting in a ride; no worries, no shortage of such attractions as well :) ).

Parking is free and near the entrance. The drive to the park goes through a beautiful area as well.

Area for improvement: the website allows payments only via a local payment card. Tourists must purchase tickets at the entrance (there is also a machine there), which is both more time consuming and more expensive (€2...
