Efteling Boat Dark Ride - Fata Morgana - Efteling Theme Park

[4K] Fata Morgana Ride-through at Efteling Theme Park in the Netherlands. This ride kind of remind us of Pirates of the Caribbean ride that you will find at several Disney Parks around the ride.

Efteling is a beautiful fantasy-themed amusement park located in Kaatsheuvel, Netherlands.

Video filmed May 2019

The only things you can not experience viewing a video of this ride are the various scents in the rooms... you will smell the jungle, and the city, and the dungeon, and the feast hall.

This dark ride is inspired by A Thousand and One Nights, Sheherazade. Mechanically it is basically one giant musicbox, where everything is finely tuned to move at the exact time. Pretty amazing work in the 80's.

One of the best Dark Rides I have ever been on, And came out in the great 1980's!

The craftsmanship alone is amazing. I loved seeing the intricate details in each scene.

An interesting detail is that the final room of the attraction with the lasers, also uses a clever effect to make it seem as if the boat is tilting. In fact part of the room tilts to one side.

That Djinn giant gave me nightmares as a kid in the eighties. Also fun fact, this is one of only a handful darkrides in the world that doesn't have a happy/triumphant ending.

They need a new wizard though!

Credit needs to be given when credit is due- and that wizard deserves credit for showing up to work and doing his job.
More than I can say for me on a Monday...

This looks absolutely stunning, I really hope to get there someday. What a beautiful park, thank you so much for bringing this to us.

Look guys the wizards just had a rough night. Cut him some slack.

[Coaster-Toaster]

Fata Morgana, one of the best (if not the best) darkride in Europe. Love it! :)

[frankvaneck]

Still amazing after 35 years! My favorite park.

[MissOddstar]

Other than the Wizard needing some coffee, this is a spectacular experience!

[nicholaskingmequeen]

I will admit, it's a pretty ride! Plus the whole party scene at the end is really impressive :)

[cornjobb]

really well done. i like how you can't see the boat in front of you.

[MrJasonshores]

This park did everything so beautifully I cannot believe that ride is from the 80s.

[alwynfrench]

This ride is glamorous and breathtaking, arts background, décor displays, and scenery are fabulous.

[SPRidley]

The whole soundtrack of Fata Morgana is absolutley fantastic, i bought the efteling soundtrack when i went there the first time 3 years ago. After listening some orchestrated dragon quest music during this month, it actually reminds me a lot to those.
