| Video Discription | I like to visit large amusement parks when I travel and I found that there was one reachable from Mumbai by train. Imagica is a theme park located halfway between Mumbai and Pune. The train from Mumbai goes most of the way to Imagicaa and then it's just a cheap ride in an auto rickshaw from there. Well it's cheap if you bargain like a local. Thankfully I enjoy a bit of bargaining AND I brought a local so it was easy. The ticket price for Imagica including all the tax and fees they add on to the base price is ₹1,532 INR (£16.24 GBP / $20.22 USD) and college kids get a 25% discount from that. I wasn't expecting it to be the Indian version of Disneyland or Universal Studios but for just $20 I was expecting it to be value for money. For comparison, the small Disneyland in Hong Kong costs $80, so Imagica is 1/4 the price of that. Imagicaa turned out to be very similar to Dunia Fantasi (Dufan) in Jakarta (you can see my vlog of that here: https://youtu.be/cMFDc0aeEEU). Many of the rides seem, especially the main ones, seem to be near identical. I wonder if there's one big business that supplies the rides to different parks throughout Asia. The Hot Wheels licensed ride 'Nitro' is the main thrill ride in the park so that's where we started. It's a very fast rollercoaster ride with a 850 meter track that reaches 40 meters high and has 360 degree loops. Even for the main thrill ride we barely had to queue. We visited on a weekday so there was almost no queues on any of the rides. I've always made sure to schedule my theme park visits for days when kids are in school as that is what makes the difference between 5 minutes or 50 minutes wait to get on a ride. The Dare 2 Drop ride is one of those towers that shoots up into the air. I knew what to expect from riding the same thing at Dufan in Jakarta where I was taken by surprise when I was blasted in the air. This time no shock but I still let out a scream just for fun. The Wild West themed Gold Rush Express rollercoaster looked quite tame compared to Nitro judging by the lack of loops and the type of chair where you're only locked in by one metal bar. It hits a speed of 65 km/h, which doesn't sound that fast but as you're going around sharp bends and through tunnels it's a decent thrill. The Haunted House is one where you don't walk through but sit in a ride. I thought was underwhelming with low technology anachronistic but they do have a couple of humans in there dressed as ghosts who jump out to provide some realism. Their laser gun game Alibaba Aur Chalis Chorr, again I thought it was low technology. You are supposed to shoot things to earn a score but you actually have to hit some electronic sensors. I felt like many of my shots didn't register properly so it was a bit frustrating. The Deep Space ride is an indoor rollercoaster inside a dome. It turned out to be exactly what I suspected it to be, a copy of Space Mountain from Disneyland. It's a decent immitation. The slow cup and saucer ride was basically a kid's ride and not something I'd bother to ride but my friend was keen on it. The ride itself was boring but we were joined by a bunch of school kids who were more entertaining than the ride. The reason for the group of schoolkids on a weekday is that once per year each class gets to go on what they call a picnic. It's a day out to reward them, or maybe something that their teachers can take from them if they are bad in school. "Better behave or you're not going to the picnic" - that kind of thing. The last fun ride we went on was the Rajasaurus River Adventure. It's a slow ride through an indoor river with dinosaurs. Again it's very low technology anachronistic. Towards the end of the ride the track inclines steeply so you know what to expect. A sharp decline with a big splash and that's exactly what we got - soaked! All in all I'd say Imagicca is worth the $20 for a fun day out, on a weekday at least. Those rides were fun enough when you could just jump right on them but they definitely wouldn't be worth waiting an hour for each. 00:00 Train to Imagica 00:30 ₹10 Vada Pav 02:00 Rickshaw Bargaining 04:45 Hot Wheels Nitro (Rollercoaster) 05:42 Dare 2 Drop (Thrill Ride) 07:37 Gold Rush (Rollercoaster) 09:26 Gola (Slush Ice) 12:37 Haunted House 14:50 Alibaba (Laser Gun Game) 18:06 Deep Space (Space Mountain) 19:56 Cup and Saucer (Selfie Time!) 26:37 Rajasaurus River Adventure (Water Splash) 28:34 Jumbo King Vada Pav 💗 Help the channel grow by liking, commenting and subscribing.
