perfection!

[hannah_i, 05/07/2011] With the park being outdoors, it's recommendable to bring waterproofs or at least an umbrella! The park has a great variety of rides, so is really suitable for everyone. It's worth considering when you visit, since the queues in May-August are rather time consuming, yet the weather in September-April can be disappointing. Clearly visiting during the holiday season will mean spending a good part of the day queuing (max. 1 hour for e.g. Oblivion / Air / Nemesis). Best to visit in e.g. April and / or start the day early before most visitors have made it to the park, or have the time to spend the entire [more]

[frankiecesca, 27/11/2007] Alton towers is one of the UK's most loved them parks. It is made up of a good mix of tame rides and thrill rides. The park is set in it's own grounds with it's own home.

The them park also has it's own hotel which makes it easier for those who have travelled fom further afield. Cost wise this is the only downside to the park as prices for an adult are a staggering £34 each. However during the yea [more]

excellent

The author rated 9 out of 10 for Alton Towers and it is "great" for a family day out. It has "excellent rides" to suit all needs, including some "especially created for children". The rides can be "truly exceptional and breathtaking". Unless you pay extra for "Fastlane" tickets queues can be over 1 hour. The staff are "pleasingly friendly" and they give you a "thumbs-up" before your ride. But the author still felt "absolutely petrified". Ticket are "expensive" even with "money off vouchers" and prices in gift shops and photos from the rides were also "high" although worth it. There are m [more]

perfection!

The author of this review starts with a bit of history and facts about the park. Then he lists the park's most "famous" rides. It's a park "for all ages", with rides from the "low key 'Squirrel' ride" to the more intense for the "thrill seekers" to find and enjoy. The park is said to always strive "to build great ground breaking rides" and has "125 attractions". Not limited to rides, Alton towers also offers "500 acres of woodlands and gardens". According to the author of this review, it is "one of the best theme parks in the UK". He also suggests to book your ticket on line to "save 20%", [more]
