Wild that Tivoli is so much bigger than everyone else!
However, I can highly recommend quite a few of the others on the list and more to.
Near Legoland, Vandel Gokart is available for outdoor racing or soccer golf.
It is best in sunshine, but can also be a fun experience in light rain.
24 pcs. of these, but I have planned to visit 3 more this summer.
I've been on a tour of Carlsberg, but it was in the 90's, so I haven't talked about it. Back then the brewery was running.
Action House Fun Center
Ca. 200,000 visitors per Year. The world's largest Gokart Center. With Legeland. Bowling. Laser Game. Paintball. Contract. + Restaurant.
