Salou, Spain

Dragon Khan | Stampida | Tomahawk | El Diablo | Templo del Fuego | Sea Odyssey
Tutuki Splash | Silver River Flume | Grand Canyon Rapids | Hurakan Condor |
Furius Baco
Kon-Tiki Wave | Tami-Tami | Crazy Barrels | Trono de Pacal | Yucatan | Serpiente Emplumada




Dragon Khan is visible from miles around and, to this day, embodies what a big multi-looper should be. Being the second oldest B&M Mega-Looper, it has developed a personality over the years, and sometimes can give a bit of a rough ride, however it never resorts to being uncomfortable. This is one of the best B&M's in the world, and whilst it has eight inversions, they are never repetitive.

Type: Mega Looper
Manufacturer: Bolliger & Mabillard
Height: 148ft
Drop: 161ft
Length: 4165ft

Inversions: 8
Opened: 1995

I may or may not ride this (only because the drop is big) but I'd love to ride it mostly because it has 8 inversions.
There's another ride I know that has 10 inversions. I'd love to ride that.

As good as a pile of metal possible could be. Which is very, very good.

This coaster is truly amazing and massive its the first thing that court my eye as I was approaching the park. All the
drops are perfect to make you float in your seat, every corner and inversions takes you by a big surprise especially on
the Zero-G Roll. The ride is non stop action start to finish as the first half of the ride is just as good at the
second. I can see why it’s a 10. There is so much more is can say about this brill coaster!!!

A good old-school B&M ride that really puts a lot of their modern stuff to shame. Really intimidating walking up the
hill when you first see it. Inversions are fast and forceful, but the ride is let down a bit by the lack of anything
else to it.

The fact that the ride is floorless does make a bit of a difference; but to be completely honest it all cracks down to
the overall experience.

Its much more intense than Kraken imo. The first half of the ride is very similar but Khan seems to travel through the
inversions a lot faster; and the second half is INCREDIBLY forceful compared to Krakens second half.

Dragon Khan is the best roller coaster in the world. The sitting train is fantastic!

Agreed; the layout has been pretty much cloned a few times too. Take Kraken for example, the layout is very similar but
its practically forceless compared Khan.

Caffeine_demon - Nemesis was my fav ride until I rode this, then I realised how short and dull it is. Dragon Khan had so
much to it. Same goes with Black Mamba; despite there stunning scenery. Superman looks very similar to Khan; but
Supermans barely 2 years old! Nothing can beat Khans original 13 year old layout!

A bit overrated IMO - nemesis, black mamba and superman at park warner are better..

Dragon Khan is the ULTIMATE coaster. If I had to I could easily write an essay why I think Dragon Khan is the best
rollercoaster in the world! When you see it; it looks spectacular. Khan is one of the largest B&M loopers in the world,
and there is one aspect that stands out greatly - it never ever lets up! The first drop is awesome with your hands up
and the first loop is titanic; you then enter the rare dive loop and into what could be the most intense inversion ever!
The zero-G roll, you get thrown all over the place but the exit will result in about a second or two of airtime. The
cobra roll is fairly snappy but the surprise is the airtime you gather onto the MCBR, you then speed down a tight drop
into a smaller loop for some strong G-forces! The latter of the ride is very forceful and twisted but the whole
experience never seems to be uncomfortable. The queue line is very short due to the rapid capacity, which means many
re-rides, but prepare to be dissapointed if they don't have all 3 trains running - the queue raises then. I managed 17
rides on this within my week at PA and has never let me down, and offers very different experiences where you sit and
when you ride (night or day). Better than Nemesis = 10/10!

Amazing, best B&M i have riden and my first multi looper, rode this 5 times in my 2 day trip, rareley ever more than a
half hour cue, and there always asking for single riders, so if you go single you get on even quicker! :)

Goin in 17 days! First time ever to Portaventura, and this will be my first B&M sit down coaster! I've never been on a
B&M outside of Alton so I'm very excited :D I'll to you all if this is better than Nemmie.

lol at ashleyb XD He doesn't know wht the heck he's on about. You're like a commercial "why go to America when you can
go to Alton Towers!". You can't judge rides if you haven't rid them.
