    C'est le meilleur parc sur terre!! :)…read more I really enjoyed visiting Parc Astérix three summers ago, not trying to measure it up to Disneyland or American equivalents, but as a uniquely French amusement park, rather off the beaten path for two Americans. It took us forever to get there since the shuttle never picked us up at the Louvre due to rain, we trekked it to Charles de Gaulle and caught the charter bus from there. Soaked in rolled up jeans, flip flops and "100% anti pluie" ponchos, we had a blast sipping on tall cans of 1664 and running around the amusement park. There are plenty of old, Romanesque statues and plenty of photo opps. Lots of fun rides for families and people of any age, and it felt very safe. And the gift shop sold HOOKAHS. Tell me where you'd find that in les États-Unis! Way worth the bus ride out there from Paris!

    This one's kind o' tough. I had fun but they seemed like they were phoning it in…read more First the hours. On weekdays during summer they close at 6 o'clock. During summer it stays light so long that most European women haven't decided what they're serving for dinner until 8:00. But this place closes at 6:00. Earns 'em triple bonus points on the looser-ometer. And the height restrictions. Ugh. They've got this height chart posted all over the park that breaks kid's heights into three categories. Kiddie rides only, Must be accompanied and Can ride unaccompanied. Both kids are Must ride accompanied or taller so we're golden. Dad can take his kiddos on everything! Until we show up to one of the more fun looking rides a discover that they've got a totally different height chart. Now neither of the girls are tall enough. Come on! It was stupid and a serious buzz kill. The best ride of the park was the Hydra. We ran most of the way over there and ended up being the last group of riders for the day. This thing spins you around and hops you up and down so smoothly that I was squealing like and idiot for a solid 5 minutes. And the fact that my little girls were right there with me? What a joy. And an awesome way to end the day. Park's closed, I carry my littlest one to the parking lot and think "Hey, only an hour and a half til dinner."

    France Miniature is just what it sounds like, all the major landmarks and iconic places in France…read moredownsized into Miniature models. This park features everything from the Eiffel Tower, arc de triomphe, Notre Dame, to the various Chateau's (Castles) in France. I believe there was about 80-100 Miniature models all numbered in which you cna follow a path from beginning to end. This park has a few dining areas, restrooms, and and several fun rides that are self operated. If you have extra time in addition with visiting the larger scale landmarks in France, I definitely recommend France Miniature.

    This place got off to a very very bad start with me, but spent the rest of the time making It up to…read moreme. Firstly..the location of this place is a nightmare. From the centre of Paris it took us 2 metro trains, an overland suburban train and finally a bus which left us stranded on a roundabout at a bus stop that was called France Miniature, but still no sign of the park. Eventually we were able to cross a road and walk for almost 10 minutes and find the entrance. The fun had only just started however as at the entrance we met a girl and 2 tills. We wanted to pay entry and a drink after our trek to get there. The catch, you could not pay for both at the same till and both tills were broken. A swearing supervisor arrived but didn't make things much better so we were quite annoyed when we were finally able to get into the park. From there things got better however. I knew Paris was spoilt, with some of the most majestic sights in the world, what I hadn't realized is quite how much there is in the rest of France. The amount of times we found ourselves we found ourselves determining that we had to go and see the full size version of one of the miniatures was evidence of that. The staff got better too. We ate at the restaurant, where a funny and friendly waiter served us food of a quality much better than what you expect to find in a tourist attraction (but then..it is France). Also at the end of our visit to the park another worker there helped us call a taxi to get back to the station (the buses stop before the park closes.this is the kind of thing that only happens in France!) Also worth a mention are the distractions from the main event and very entertaining they are too. First the kids toy car driving track with its spooky music is worth a look if visiting with kids, then there are some slides, a ride that takes you up across the water in the air on a chair suspended from a cable and another one that takes you up a ramp in a boat before you shoot down and jump into the water (there is a small bump at the end to send you flying). The last 2 I mention are self operated and they were tremendous fun. You can't help thinking 'lawsuit waiting to happen' mind you and we weren't surprised to see an ambulance arrive for someone who had taken a tumble. In conclusion. A fun day out if you can get there. Try not to hurt yourself!
