Five types of people you meet in amusement parks

Besides the colourful ambience, wide choice of rides, and fun times with your family and friends, what makes amusement parks the exciting, vibrant hubs that they are? It’s the people you meet there.

Parks are full of lively, fun-loving groups of people whose enthusiasm for the rides and slides will enliven your day. So, exactly what kind of people are we talking about? Well, here’s a roundup of the classic characters you’ll meet:

Happy-go-lucky families

It's not rare to see big families teaming up at rides, feasting together at the food court, or challenging each other to a crazy car battle. Any which way, it's quite fun to watch the entire household giggling away, and spending quality time together.

Energetic kids

An amusement park without curious and rowdy kids is difficult to imagine. After all, it’s their energy which keeps the spirit of the park alive. Whether it’s a bunch of mischievous school kids with their teachers, or children asking their parents to take them on every ride, it’s definitely a treat to observe these little pranksters in full vigor.

Thrill seekers

There are a certain type of people who are so inspired by reality shows such as Fear Factor or Wipeout, that they aim to conjure the stuntman within themselves at every opportunity. No matter how difficult or scary the rides seem, they’re always up for a challenge. Such people really amaze you and encourage you to step out of your comfort zone.

Couch potatoes

This category of folk are just the opposite of the adrenaline junkies. They’d rather munch snacks on the sideline or sit on the floatation tubes in the lazy river ride. It’s funny to watch their friends’ attempts to get them involved and participate.

Selfie addicts

There’s a 10/10 chance that you’ll end up encountering someone holding a camera up to their face in an amusement park. Of course, who doesn’t want to capture a memorable moment on their phone? However, there are some people who go overboard, taking pictures non-stop. Seeing them pout, pose or make funny faces is bound to bring a smile to your face.

It's the different people you meet that make Wonderla the rich, vibrant experience that it is. So, make it a point to visit soon, and discover which one of these people you are!
