Our once in a life trip to Florida was cancelled at the last minute, and having done Disneyland Paris so many times over the years, we wanted to do something different, and we ended up booking to stay at Portaventura. I've just left a review for The Callaghans, which was an excellent hotel, our home for the week there. With Covid19 protocols in place the park was a pleasure to walk around, not busy at all. Some days were busier than others during our six day stay, but it was great to not have to queue forever to do a short ride. There was a lot of choice of things to do for the family. The Sesame Street 3D dark ride was one of our childrens favorites... it was really well done. We must've done the rapids ride a dozen times at least over the week, the wait time being so short. Food was excellent with our Full Board package. We got in effect a three course meal included. In some ways it was too much, but we're not complaining. A salad as a started, a huge burger and fries, a desert, a 500ml of beer... no wonder my waistline has grown :o) Social distancing in the park was set up well by the staff, but at times totally disregarded by lots of Spanish visitors. So many times I had to ask people to stand further away, particularly in the restaurant queues, with people literally touching me. Nothing the park can do to some extent, but in Catalonia, you'd have thought local visitors would've been taking things more seriously. That being said constant cleaning was evident throughout the park. It was a shame that the shows were all cancelled, you'd have thought it would've been possible to do them in a socially distanced way. We bought the "yard" of beer glasses, that we cleaned daily, and the park cleaned upon each refill. Not anywhere near a yard of ale :o) but you probably get about 150ml extra for free with each refill. What a relief it was to drink a freezing cold Estrella Damm in the searing heat. All in all we had a fantastic time. We felt incredibly lucky to be on holiday at all, after what has been a pretty crappy year for many. Maybe who knows, just maybe we might get to do it all again one day :o) Thanks for reading.

Great for all the family went on Tuesday was in for about 11 and stayed til a storm stopped the rides about 9.30pm ish. Was really worried about que times longest que was an hour an half for my son and husband for shambala (hope that’s right 😂) rest well waited no more than 30mins and my hubby and son went on everything the later it got shorter que times seem to be only disappointment was furious baco was not open now we went to Ferrari land Thursday my son did red force and and tower things again ques again where only about half an hour for each. My granddaughter enjoyed all the kiddies rides but apart from the 2 big rides mentioned not much at all in Ferrari land more for kids under 10 I’d say then we went back to portaventura longest que time 45mins and some of them time boards need updating said 30mins we was on in 10 now the best bit if you can go at night best time some of the rides where walk on but this was late like 10.30pm also my son got to go on furious baco all in all we had a great time not done water park yet so will post about that later hope this helps just a couple of tips don’t get slush across from rapids it’s just sugared water no ice then I also recommend the restaurant in Wild West sorry forgot name

PortAventura was a great day out for us (2 adults and 1 teen) there was plenty of calm water rides for the easy goers as well as adrenalin filled experiences for the thrill seekers. Do go prepared with your own water and be prepared for expensive food inside the park - the quality was all ok but a mindset of it is what it is will help you out. Coffee and pastries were reasonable infact the croissants were awesome in the morning. Rides were first class especially Stampida and Dragon Khan but prepare to be thrown about a bit. Only down sides were the queue times, their system seemed to be 20 mins shorter than actual timings, eg 10 mins advertised times took 30 mins, 40 mins took and hour. We did buy the 10 ticket express pass but they were really inflexible about missing out rides and adding others as our teen didn't fancy Shamabala. The app was useful for navigation but ride times did not populate in the app consistently. There was the usual difficulties with the exit lane jumpers, teenagers trying to use the exit lane to skip the queue ls which slows everything down as they occupy seats or create delays when getting kicked off the rides. We will go back, but next time we will try and spread the park over two days.
