Dreamworld - Gold Coast

Dreamworld is one of the biggest theme parks in Queensland Australia. The park is so huge even a day will not be enough to enjoy what it has to offer. And, going on peak season can be an additional nightmare as you would have to line up for hours and that would consume most of your time in the park. The queueing can be very tedious and there is a little emphasis on keeping you entertain whilst you wait.





Upon entering Dreamworld, you will find the Main Street first hand. It is the main avenue that leads all the visitors of the park to the actual theme park's rides and adventures. You can also find a few retail outlets and attractions here.





Hop on Dreamworld's Railway train which will take you to your favourite place in the park. It is advisable to get a map with you first to help you with the trail. The "Choo-Choo" train is a real steam train and it can be quite a scenic and relaxing way to get around the place.





Nearby the Main Street, you can try the rides at Dreamworld's coolest kids zone, the Nickelodeon Central zone. Here you can find themed rides and attractions specially for kids based around the main friendly characters and programs on Nickelodeon TV. Some of the examples are the Slime Bowl, Dora the Explorer, Swinger Zinger, Nick-o-Round and Spongebob Flypants. 

Since the park is really huge, you really need to take the steam train to take you to your next adventure. If you're taking a toddler with you, it's better to drop by the Wiggles World, the zone specially suited for toddlers. If your appetite is on spine-tingling, knee-knocking adventure, Gold Rush is the place. This is where you can try death-defying Big 6 Thrill Rides in Dreamworld including The Cyclone Rollercoaster, Giant Drop, Tower of Terror, The Claw, Wipeout and Mick Doohan Motocoaster. You can have a skydiving-like experience on the tallest free-falling ride in the world according to the Guiness Book of World Records -The Giant Drop. Within seconds you'll be plummeting 120 meters at terminal speed! If you are in for the fastest rides in the world, try riding the Tower of Terror, which will accelerates its passengers to a massive 160kph in short seconds before it climbs to almost 38 storeys high and suddenly drop to a free-fall landing! If you're a rollercoaster fan, try riding one of the tallest high-speed gravity rollercoasters on the planet! It is about 13-storey high with a heart thumping twists that make you scream at its sidewinder and 360-degree loop.

One of the most beautiful thing about Dreamworld is their Australian Wildlife Experience. It is a place to find approximately 800 native Australian animals. It showcases some of the most famous animals in Australia like the kangaroos, wombats and koalas. Never miss to visit the Tiger Island as well as this is where you'll come face to face with the rare Bengal gold and white tigers.
