Furuviksparken and the year's news 2019

Furuviksparken and the year's news 2019
This family's experience:

Activities: We went to Furuviksparken, which is divided into a park area and a tivoli (amusement park). We started in the zoo, visited the chimpanzees, and went to the farm where the kids could pet the animals. Then we went to the tivoli and enjoyed the rides

Highlights: The kids loved getting close to the animals, especially the camels. The radio cars were a big hit! We were there at opening, so we got to ride almost all the carousels before lunch, with hardly any queues. Our youngest loved the cars carousel and the spinning tiger carousel ✨
