Legoland the theming is good, DS is enjoying it. But I think it is the service / speed and coordination of it all which I think is not even comparable to US parks.
Totally agree with this, we visited in the Summer after a few years break. The service was dreadful, the little staff that were there were disinterested and just couldn't be bothered. No organisation on the rides and toilets were filthy. We won't be rushing back.

I actually prefer Adventure Island in Southend to most of the big UK ones! Loads to do in a small area £20 quid wristband and the most cheerful interactive staff you’ll find anywhere!

Honestly don’t know anyone who pays walk up prices anymore when there are numerous vouchers on products etc..
Plus you have to book in advance now anyway and even that saves you a bit on entrance fees.

It’s well worth it, you won’t be disappointed. We are hoping to go back again for FLY as we went there 2 weeks before it opened. Another great one is Liseberg in Sweden.

And I don’t know any U.K. visitors who pays walk up 1 day pass at WDW.

Just making the comparison.

Even at half the price of an Orlando theme park, I do not believe you get even half the experience.

But everyone goes to the parks for different reasons of course!

Excellent.
We watch a theme park vlogger and he always raves about the European ones so will slowly make our way round them, even a few of the little ones look brilliant.
