The park has many and important attractions (over 30) located in an area of 70000 square meters including the colorful little train, the roller coaster for adults and children and the Shocking Tower, 50 mt of pure adrenaline from which you can admire the beautiful Tyrrhenian coast.Moreover, inside the park you can find aquatic rides and big structures for the shows like Cinema 4D Movie Stars Theatre and the Grande Pala Verde which can contains 600 people. The Parks has an important didactic area for (the) schools. The project “Green Park Experience” aims to bring (the) kids to discover the unspoiled nature where the park is located. Through a nature trail a tutor offers the chance to know the flora and fauna typical of the Mediterranean wood. Following the motto “Learning has never been so funny” the students will engage themselves in workshops of environmental education about the value of reusing waste and how transform cans and bottles in colorful and fun characters. The students can also learn a draft road safety education, through a path with road signs on board of mini-cars and with the help of a policeman directing the traffic!

A really nice and nicely made amusement park. It is manageable and has great attractions for children as well as for adults. This park is considered particularly sustainable. However, we have not really noticed much of this. For example, there were no dishes labeled as plant-based. We found that disappointing (especially for a green/sustainable psrk). We were also very surprised at how they kept the parrots that they use for the shows. They were crammed into a very small space, all day in the heat with no place to hide. I strongly believe that this is not animal friendly and nowadays not necessary to attract people. It would be nice if the park would give up this unworthy of animals bird keeping.
The rest was really okay and the staff very friendly.

From the outside this park is not much to look at, but inside you have a family gem. We have visited twice and the park is consistently well kept, clean, friendly and entertaining for an entire day. The programme of events is very good, and spread out enough that you get a really good day out for the kids. The new dino park is great, and will be even better when the new dino ride is finished. The entertainments are very good, with one key guy doing a lot of work on the dino and light show. Almost all great shows including the high diving show. Rides are in good condition, with a mix of ranges to suit all ages and fear levels. Make sure to look for online deals to get reduced parent ticket prices. If you can visit a week or two after the Italian Ferragosto holiday the park will be almost empty, with practically zero lines for any ride. Easy to spent 7-8 hours here with young kids. Recommend.

Visited as a family of four, kids aged 2 and 4 1/2. They both LOVED it. 2 year old daughter couldn’t go on many rides as only 89cm but son went on loads and daddy enjoyed the ‘adrenaline’ rides. Daughter loved the horse rides, car school and woodland boat trip.
Food at lunchtime was amazing for a ‘theme park’. You can also take picnics.
Dinosaur area really good if you like dinos, 3D cinema thing brilliant, loud and a bit scary although our daughter managed to fall asleep in it as she was shattered!
Great value day out compared to U.K. parks of similar size / quality. Search online for discount tickets and book online in advance to save a few euros.

Completely disagree with pervious reviewer. We found this park very expensive compared to the UK parks and not nearly as fun. Very poor!

We leaved in hotel nere by. We did not had a plan to visit this place, but our kids insisted to go there. We did not regret, that we spend here 5 hours of our precious vacation day. We liked an abundance of attractions here, which a both interested as for small kids, as for juniours, as go adults. It was nice that despite the weekend there were no queues to the rides. Only one moment made us very upset - the staff likes to much to have lunch. At noon time many of attraction stoped for 1-1,5 hours their activities because the staff left for a lunch. The customers did not had nothing to do but to walk in the park doing nothing. I wonder why people make such long breaks in peak time on sunday when the working hours and season are too shot(working hours 10.00-18.00, season is average 3 month per year).

Rides were perfect for our 5 and 9 year olds. Good variety of rides to suit teenagers too. Unbelievably there were no queues in mid July. The place was extremely clean too. A gem of a place!

We spent the last day of our one week Holiday this lovely small amusement park.
The entry fees are very reasonable and the staff extremley friendly and helpful.
But be Aware nobody Can speak English and all signs are in Italian only. However I managed just fine with my bit of Italian. The park itself is spotless clean and so are the toilets.
Wow. The attractions are not too many and a 2 to 3 hours is sufficient time to spend in the park.
The landscaping is great s there are many natural trees and it offers great shade while Walking. We were in April and had the park almost to ourselves, no waiting in line anywehre. I Can highly recommend this park for parents with Kids that wish toffer them a Diversion from the beach or Sightseeing.

Family visited the park in May 2013. Entry price is good compared to what you would pay in the UK. Rides are good but not sure if they would keep teenagers occupied for long. Our younger kids loved it! It was low season when we visited so we didn't need to queue for anything.
Decent selections of food outlets and not too expensive (again compared to our other experiences with these parks). Not the best food you'll eat in Italy but good enough to keep you fuelled for racing from ride to ride.

We’ve visited Cavallino Matto with 3kids- 5,5 and 3years old. It was a great fun for them with many attractions and no queues at all! Half of the day was absolutely enough to make all rides and one show, so I recommend to go for a “off peak” ticket (2.30-6.30pm). Not so many thrilling attractions for for adults or teenagers can be a little bit boring.

Went there two years ago and now again (Aug-2019) with kids now aging 5 and 8. Both times have been excellent experiences. The park is beautifully situated beneath the pines. So also on a very hot day, this is an absolute bullseye to spend your day as there is plenty of shades. There are numerous water rides to get that needed cooling down. Staff are very considerate and cheerful, they really add to the experience. Ice cream, water, food inside the park are of good quality and are priced honestly. Enjoy the smiles of your kids as they will have a fab experience.

Vorremmo andare con nostra figlia autistica di 13 anni, esiste un sistema agevolato per le code? ho letto che non ci sono parcheggi per disabili, è vero?
Direzione Cavallinomatto
Castagneto Carducci, Italy4 contributions
Ciao, il parcheggio per disabili è proprio all'interno del parco (per farle vedere meglio dove è, guardi la mappa del nostro Parco sul nostro sito internet)
Per quanto riguarda le code, non ci sono mai troppe code neanche alla biglietteria... inoltre, se siete in possesso del certificato 104, la bambina entra gratis e il suo accompagnatore paga un super ridotto a 15€
Sapete se per Halloween è aperta la parte del minigolf e fino a che ore? Grazie
