    5 Stars All The Fun Of The Park! Review with images 15/03/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages lots to do

    Disadvantages Disadvantages some rides may scare you too much

    ALTON TOWERS Every year I visit the Alton Towers Theme Park with a bunch of friends, and every year I really enjoy it. It has everything you need for a fun day out. All the rides, lots of places to eat, walks around the gardens, live shows for both children and adults, and the list goes on. Last time I visited the Park was late October 2005, for the 'Terror Of The Towers' themed weekend, this of course being a weekend where you not only get the usual rides and other pleasures of the theme park, but also a lot of people get dressed up in their Halloween gear, and Alton Towers opens that little ... more

    Advantages Advantages A fab day out!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Queues, expensive.

    With Summer rapidly turning into Autumn and the summer holidays coming to an end, this doesn't seem like a very good time to be writing a review of a place that is the perfect day out for a family during the summer. But nevertheless I shall continue... Alton Towers, for those of you who don't know, is one of the UK's leading theme parks. Situated in the heart of Staffordshire, in a small village called Alton, the theme park spans 500 acres of countryside, hosting a whole range of rides and attractions and making it the perfect place for a short break or a family day out. GETTING THERE = Since ... more

    Advantages Advantages It's fantastic. It rocks. It's magical, atmospheric, historical, thrilling!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Err...Expensive. Too many vending machines

    *Prepares self* This could be a long one. ;P I've been an Alton Towers enthusiast for a long time now. I first went when I was a young child, I had a great time but didn't really remember it. I next went on a school trip when I was 12 in the summer, had a fantastic time, did the same the year after and since then have been going several times a year. For example, Alton Towers opened March 12th and as of May 12th, I've been three times, with six or seven more trips planned taking me through to July. I also spend a lot of time on an Alton Towers forum, so you could say I know my stuff ;). Alton ... more

    A few weeks ago my fiancé suggested that we take a trip to Alton Towers, it is something we do most years and is always a good day out. For me Alton Towers is a fun day packed with so much to do and there really is something for everything. Prices Tickets into Alton Towers I think are quite expensive however it is worth the money as you do get a full days worth of activities. Adults - £38 Each Children - £29 Each (Children aged 4 – 11) Children Under 4 -Free There are also various family ticket offers which work out cheaper however these depend on who and how many are in you party. We ... more

    Advantages Advantages Great rides, great selection of restaurants, great for all ages

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Expensive, huge queues, very large park (lots of walking!)

    After visting Alton Towers with my partner recently, I have mixed views about the park, so thought my impartial views would probably be helpful for writing a hopefully useful and constructive review! Getting To The Park Once you're near Alton Towers, it is well sign posted from all directions. We turned our SatNav off once we saw the first sign, as it was so well sign posted we no longer needed to be told by the SatNav which way to go. Parking There is a HUGE car park - remember where you parked by seeing the letter reference (e.g. car park area A, B, C, D etc) before you leave your car, as it ... more
