attractiontix.co.uk is where i got portaventura tickets from. you'll definitely need 2 days to see it all, brillant spot for adults and kids alike. if you dont buy the express pass (which we didnt as it was working out too expensive) be prepared for a bit of a queue for the the more popular rides which is the only downside.

When we went we didn't see the express pass until the last day, would definitely recommend getting it.

We were staying in El Paso so went into the park each night, sometimes the queues were ridiculous for the faster bigger rides.

gallsman said to skip ferrari land and he's not far wrong as theres not that much in it although i would recommend calling in just for a spin on red force (i think thats the name) mental spin round on that rollercoaster and the queues werent near as bad for it.

If you have young kids it can be an idea to go in the evening to the Park. Queues are virtually not existent and the weather is milder.

A theme park, a place with attractions made up of rides, such as roller coasters and water rides located in Salou near Barcelona.

We didn't go but met several people there who had. They all said the same thing ... the big roller coaster in Ferrari land is pretty cool, but everything else there is shite.

Whereas in the main park, you have the big rides but also loads of other stuff.

+1
We went in the evening , weekday and there was no cues.
Our eldest was 8 at the time, so to be honest I would recommend  the place on less the your youngest was that age or older.  I thought the park itself was great but as a family didnt get the most out of it because of the kids ages.  A trip for teenage wanes would be perfect.
