Alton Towers - Review

Hello!

Today, I'm going to be reviewing the Alton Towers theme park!

Myself and my family went to Alton Towers for Easter Sunday, we like to go to a theme park at least once a year, and this year, we decided to go to Alton towers.

First impressions of the park are very good, it has a large welcoming entrance, with friendly staff to usher you in, and direct you to a car parking spot. from the car parks, you can get a train/shuttle to the park's main entrance, because the walk is quite long, depending on what car park you are in.

The shuttles are brightly coloured and great for children, to get them pumped for the exciting day ahead!

When in the Park, there must have been at least 700 travellers, and a very large police presence,  My partner was stopped at the gate, but there was no trouble for the entire day, and everything ran smoothly.

We went on most of the large rides, my favourite being Rita, A ride which goes from 0 to 100KM/h in two and a half seconds, a truly invigorating experience! The ride queue was very fast for a ride of that size, but the staff could have been loading the rides a lot faster, but they were being quite slow if I was honest.

A great attraction for the whole family is the Ice Age 4D cinema, I was a little disappointed with the one in Drayton Manor, it was okay, but it was not amazing, but this one really was, there was snow coming down, bubbles, air on the back of your legs,  and the film was good too! It was a great all round experience!

In a majority of the stores they sell an unlimited drinks bottle, where you can refill it at a any of the numerous facilities around the park.    I recommend bringing a packed lunch as it is very expensive in the food stalls there.

Its a great all round day, and I recommend it to anyone.
