Opened in 1952, Efteling Theme Park is not only one of the oldest theme parks in the world, but is consistently voted one of the best. It draws inspiration from darker European fairy tales by Hans Christian Andersen and Brothers Grimm, plus myths, legends, and folklore. The park is also known for its focus on sustainability, including high construction standards with no plastic or concrete, and plenty of green space.
You need to reserve your admission ticket in advance to visit the park. If you’re visiting during peak times, a skip-the-line admission ticket could save you hours of waiting. The park has a free app that you can download before you go to help pre-plan your trip and narrow down the attractions you most want to visit. It also helps you monitor queue times to make the most of your time in the park.
