Family Fun at Parc Walibi
I thought it was time to blog about the fun to be had at Parc Walibi.
This theme park at Agen, just 30 minutes from our gite La Vieille Source, opens around Easter each year until it closes for winter in November. It’s great fun for all ages with lots and lots and LOTS of fun rides to discover. It’s well signposted and easy to find, there’s plenty of parking and a really nice shady picnic area with tables and bench seating.
The park has a few fast food restaurants and a more formal restaurant at the chateau in the park. There’s a shop selling Walibi souvenirs and other booths and stalls throughout the park selling cold drinks, slush puppies, sweets and ice creams.
Some of the rides to enjoy are:
Drakkar (log flume) -Radja River Rapids (wet and wild)- Tam Tam Tour (a tame and pleasant boat trip)
- Cocinelle (small roller coaster) – Boomerang (fast roller coaster) – Cosmic (an up and down spinning around ride) -
Fandango (chairoplanes) – Carousel (merry go round) – Splash battle (be prepared to get very wet on this ride) – 
Pirate Boat (hold on to your stomachs) – Tea Cups (waltzers) and other rides especially for younger children – Tapis Magique- sliding fun on a doormat, Tacos – little “Brum” style cars, the Walibi mini railway, a baby helicopter ride and ponies. There are daily shows too. A sea lion show, dancing musical fountains and a singing mascots show. The audience are invited up on stage after the performance to have their photograph taken with the cuddly characters. We would definitely recommend this as a great day out for families with children of all ages. Find out more about Parc Walibi including opening hours, prices and a plan of the park.
