Puy du Fou, Les Epesses

A must visit. Had an exceptional day with the family. The shows are amazing, favorites for us, birds, vikings and lance. Stages and theatre production brilliant. Download the app in advance to help you plan the day and also translate into your own language. Fantastic. Would certainly go back again.

I didn't know what to expect, but this experience was truly spectacular. Very different from what you might expect from a 'theme park'. The bird show was my hands down favourite although the night show was a dramatic feast for the eyes. Polished performances by the actors. I've never seen a what-do-i-call-it? spectacle? play? on such a grand scale. I recommend buying your tickets months in advance as they are hard to come by. Went with a group of fellow 30 year old friends and even we enjoyed it, so I'm sure kids would be blown away! The park also offers affordable food and drinks. Puy du Fou has an app that you download so you can experience the shows through english translation - which was excellent when it wasn't cutting out. That's the only reason I've rated it 4 stars.
