what is the best Theme Park you've ever visited Except Disney ?

i think the best Theme Park i've visited was Island Of Adventure at Universal Orlando . my best rides are : the Dueling Dragons , Spiderman , The Incredible Hulk and most of the theming of that park .

The Second is Efteling in the Netherlands because their DarkRides aren't too bad and when you walk everywhere in the park it's pretty and so magical .

what's yours ?

Warner Bros. Movie World, Gold Coast, Australia.

It's Rides are Disney level with detail and story, and the park is brillently themed, (for a non-disney park)

Re: what is the best Theme Park you've ever visited Except Disney ?

I used to love Marriott's Great America, in Santa Clara. Now it is owned by Paramount, and has turned into gangland. So I havent been there since the late 90's.

You see Marriott's tried to be like Disney. With A train station, Ice Show, Imax type theater, Rides and WARNER BROS cartoon characters.

I would love to visit Islands of Adventure. I have heard fantastic opinions on this park.

Busch Gardens Tampa and Williamsburg are among the finest park out there. And by default...Tokyo Disney Resort since it's not own by WDC... Hehehe

Re: what is the best Theme Park you've ever visited Except Disney ?

I would have voted Islands of Adventure as well, but the upkeep over there has been pretty bad lately. The place needs some refreshing, touch up apint and new rides, not to mention better food. Thumbs down. I can't recommend as it is.
