Busch Gardens Europe 2009

Wow! After a six hour drive and enduring a completely rain filled and bone chilling day, I present to you all my first video of the 2009 season- Busch Gardens Europe. It was you that helped make this trip a reality, because without you all, we'd still be clueless about where to go! So thanks again for helping us choose an amazing park whose lack of coasters was completely made up for by its quality and beauty.

Ride Count:
Griffon: 3x
Lochness Monster: 3x
Alpengeist: 3x
Big Bad Wolf: 2x
Apollo's Chariot: 1x
Grover's Alpine Express: 1x
Curse of DarKastle: 1x
Skyride (each side): 1x

just about the description, how can you say there is a lack of coasters? having 5+ coasters is a great amount and especially for this park being they are very large and well known coasters.. Even though being in the shadow of sfgadv, where it has about 13 coaster, busch gardens has plenty of coasters. There are some parks that dont have any coasters at all or very small ones

Hey petersheeler: Yes, and those smaller parks aren't worth my time. Don't get me wrong, I had an excellent time at BGE. All I was saying was that in comparison to other amusement parks, the coaster count is indeed low here. But, the scenery and atmosphere dominate all other parks I have visited.

[coasterfreak11892]

Hey MisterSofteeSaysBla: Thanks! It most certainly is! Griffon was my favorite coaster there!

i think they'll reopen alpengeist in 2010

[thunderez71]

want to go back there and ride alpengeist. it was closed but apollo's charriott and griffon are awesome

[TaylorandJoshvsutube]

what alpengeist has been open

[ripper3125]

did they ever open alpengeist again?

[youknowyoulovemeeee]

I agree they dont have too many coasters but something about this park tops every other park in my opinion. It's my favorite. But Great video!

What day did u film this. I was there that same week. I might of beeen there that same day.

[petersheeler]

Its diappointing that you dont like small family parks. I have been to Canobie Lake park, and no ride is taller than the trees surrounding the park, and yet they have one coaster that is the tallest in the state that everybody loves to ride, and its famous too. I also went to BGA last month which is similar to BGE, and with the 7 coasters there, i take the 7 coasters at BGA over all of them at SFGadv, with the exception of El Toro
