Tivoli Gardens - the centre of Copenhagen

Advantages: Red noses, cold hands and wonder galore - a must do Christmas experience
Disadvantages: It gets might darned cold!!!

...I was lucky enough to have a short break in wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen in early December. This was my first visit to Denmark and I really didn't know exactly to expect, all I knew of Copenhagen was Hans Christian Anderson and the Little Mermaid. Out hotel was on the outskirts of the city ( due to a mix up with Expedia - the hotel we were supposed to be using hadn't been given out booking!!) but there was an excellent bus service which we found very easy to use. This review is about the little gem that I didn't realise existed in the city. I had heard of Tivoli but didn't know just what it was. Tivoli is in fact the oldest amusement park of the world . It is said that it was Tivoli that inspired Walt Disney to build Disneyland. The park opened on August 15, 1843 and was designed by Georg Carstensen who said...

Review of Tivoli Gardens, Copenhagen

Tremendous Tivoli World

Advantages: Good Value, good food, good day out
Disadvantages: kids want to keep going back :(

...If you're on holiday, anywhere along Spain's Costa del Sol, and you have children. Then Tivoli World is a real must. Tivoli World is in the resort of Benalmadena/Arroya de la Miel and is easy to find, Any Hotel or resort reception will be able to advise as to its where abouts, opening times etc: Basically if you're on the Costa del Sol, catching a train to Benalmadena is possibly the best way to get there. Tivoli World is only a couple of minutes from the station. When leaving the station, turn and face the Mountains, follow the paved pedestrian area on your right hand side, after a minute you will see a large Café/bar stretching across the pavement and around a corner, follow this direction, up a small street until you come to Tivoli World car park, turn to your left and head towards the car park entrance/exit, there on your...

Review of Tivoli World, Malaga

I';ve been to Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen - this doesn't compare

Advantages: Beautiful settings
Disadvantages: A lame tired old theme park!!

... TIVOLI WORLD BENALMADENA We visited Tivoli World on the Costa del Sol when we were staying at Benalmadena Costa, close to Malaga. Tivoli World is in the Arroyo de la Miel isr egion of Benalmadena halfway between Pueblo Benalmadena in the mountains and Benalmadena Costa on the coast. As well as a theme park Tivolii World holds a market ( which they call a Bric-a-Brac Garden Market) from 11am to 1pm each Sunday and cthis osts 1 euro for each adult to get in. Basically this is a Spanish car boot sale !! The gardens themselves are very pretty with fountains and birds. The Spanish claim that there are over 30 rides and attractions - I don't personally think they are very good at maths!!! They also claim that it is 'Similar to Disney' again their observation skills seem a little lapse...

Enjoyment at Tivoli World

Advantages: Open till the small hours and doesnt break the bank
Disadvantages: Aching bones after a few hours

...Having family in Southern Spain i make a point of visiting Tivoli World on every trip. More for the kids then myself, though i do enjoy it there. There is something there for all ages and at a very reasonable price, Whether u want to purchase a wrist band, or just get tivoli tickets, its very reasonable, Its not as up to date as say Alton towers or Chessington, but there are some thrilling rides, and some real bones crunchers too, lots of dips n bumps, and definately lots of getting wet , if you like logs rides, Make sure u take a poncho. ( and if ur kids screem duck, then duck, usually means ur gonna get soaked) Was a bit worried about one of the rides htere, the big wheel, didnt seem very safe, felt i was gonna fall out of it, though it was pretty windy when i went on it, but havent ventured back onto it. Plenty of places to get...

Review of Tivoli Model One Radio

Aurora

Advantages: Position, cleanliness, staff
Disadvantages: None although may be too quiet for some

...Reasons for choosing this hotel: We chose this hotel for the first couple of nights of a two week self-drive tour in July 07 based on it's proximity to Rome and the fact that the area is rich in history - fabulous Villas built as it was one of the most popular destinations of Roman emperors due to the sulphur springs and spa waters which are still thought to be of the highest quality. Directions: Tivoli is to the North East of Rome and is easily accessible from both Rome Fiumicino and Ciampino airports. Join the Rome Ring Road and exit at Junction 13 (head towards Tivoli), the hotel is approximately 10km from this junction. The hotel is also easily reached from the centre of Rome by public transport - the railway station Bagni di Tivoli is 1km away and the bus-stop on the main Rome-Tivoli line is 300m from the hotel. Hotel...

Review of Tivoli Hotel, Agadir

Park yourself here and overlook the Ocean.

Advantages: Good 5 star hotel, super food
Disadvantages: A long walk to town centre

...Madeira is an island in the Atlantic Ocean, sometimes called the Pearl of the Atlantic or the floating garden, the flowers are magnificent here and it is a very green island, because of the careful usage of water and the mild climate. This was our third visit to Madeira - we like it, as it's warm without being too hot, the people are so friendly and the food and wine is good too! We choose the Tivoli Ocean Park through a getaway break with our Timeshare, but anyone can stay in the suites at this hotel, there are 23 Terrace suites and 24 Tower suites, ours was in the Tower, which is the central part of the hotel with sea views from the balcony. There are also 245 Deluxe/standard rooms and 21 Superior rooms, plus 4 deluxe for disabled guests. As the name suggests it is part of the Tivoli Hotel Group. Our balcony gave us a fabulous...

Review of Tivoli Ocean Park, Funchal

A journey back in time - to 1982.

Advantages: Erm....... It's quite pretty I suppose
Disadvantages: Cost, size and attractions.

...Tivoli Gardens - Copenhagen We recently spent a pleasant weekend in Copenhagen and one of the most popular attractions in that lovely city is the Tivoli Pleasure Gardens. Hard to avoid it occupies a prime site and is usually Chapter One in most guide books. Before travelling I'd read mixed reviews of the gardens; some eulogised it as a timeless paradise, others claimed it was over-hyped, over crowded and over priced. Although I had severe misgivings I'm firmly of the opinion that if you're going to visit a city as a tourist you should at least try the main tourist attractions and form your own opinions. Unfortunately, I found myself firmly in the second camp. Denmark has yet to join the Euro and have retained their national currency: the Danish Kroner (DK). Several places will accept payment in Euros, including Tivoli, but I...

Just Take it Easy and Enjoy

Advantages: Fabulous Location, excellent hotel amenities, good value for money
Disadvantages: Dont recomend for lively holidays

...We visited last September for a weeks holiday to the Tivoli Marinotel on bed and breakfast basis, previously we had stayed at this hotel a few years back as a family, thus the reason for visiting again. First impressions on arrival were good, as we were greeted by the concierge immediately who welcomed us to the hotel. The five-star Tivoli Marinotel has a mixture of leisure and sports facilities, is situated on 30,000 square metres of landscaped gardens, has direct access to a magnificent reserved beach and has its own Vilamoura Congress Centre, within the hotel. The Tivoli has a privileged location in the heart of the well-known resort of Vilamoura in the Algarve, with its marina, infra-structure and non-stop, year-round entertainment. All this, a mere 20 km from Faro airport. the hotel has an excellent location right...
