Sweden (and a little bit of Norway) – August 2019 {Day 4: Liseberg}

[Pokemaniac]

Great report overall! Nice to see that Liseberg delivered so well. At least I hope this contrast between it and TusenFryd makes my burning hatred for Parques Reunidos more understandable. The two parks were neck-and-neck back in the mid-2000s, but now Liseberg has a better version of every single ride TusenFryd has (as soon as the dark ride and the waterpark open), in addition to a much higher level of service, food, cleanliness and overall general competence. TusenFryd has fallen deep into complacency with their monopoly in the Oslo area, while Liseberg seems not to slack even though they are in pretty much the same situation. And TusenFryd is even one of the better-maintained Parques Reunidos parks, from what I've heard. So yeah, what can you do but be depressed?

Looking forward to reading more TRs from you in the future, wherever you choose to go! Just remember to bring a camera, and I'm sure it will be a great read!

For what it's worth, here's that article I was talking about:

8 things we learnt during a Liseberg behind the scenes tour - COASTERFORCE

We were recently invited to spend a day with Pontus – Liseberg’s Attractions Guide. He’s the guy that gets to look after VIPs at the park, including royalty (hence taking us round, obviously). He takes guests to see behind the scenes areas and helps them ride the rides! Here's what we discovered.
