Alton Towers

 Hi Everyone,

We had an amazing time at Alton Towers  yesterday. We particularly enjoyed the new World of David Walliams zone, we would definitely recommend a visit to any fans of his out there.

Our youngest was able to ride Thirteen for the first time which she absolutely loved and we managed to ride most of the rides on our visit and have a trip to the dungeons so happy kids and adults at the end of the day. 

There are a few new retro rides at the park this year which were alot of fun, and the 80s rock tunes went down a treat.

The park was very busy so please do bare this mind if you plan a visit and are worried about covid. We managed to avoid most of the big crowds using the app but there are some points where this isn't possible.

Alton Towers Scarefest 2020

 Hi everyone,

A couple of days ago we let you know about the fantastic Ninja Warrior course in Stoke. Well we teamed this up with the absolutely brilliant Alton Towers over Halloween weekend for their Scarefest. 

Alton Towers is a family favourite for many and it's easy to see why. There are rides for everyone. Cbeebies land for the little ones, Pirates bay and Haunted Hollow for the slightly older kids and of course the many thrill rides like Oblivion, Wickerman and Nemesis. 

Safety in light of the Covid pandemic was paramount. One way routes and sanitiser stations were in place throughout the park. Rides were regularly closed for cleaning (although this did add to the wait times, especially the bigger rides like Thirteen).

The highlight of the scarefest were the numerous scare mazes which were enjoyed by alot of costumed guests. The mazes are broken up into different age categories so you can be sure they are as scary as needed. No photos were taken during this section to keep the surprises fresh. 

Overall a very enjoyable weekend and one we will definitely be repeating. Alton Towers has events throughout the year (a Christmas event was being advertised whilst we were there) and if they are of the same standard as Scarefest then they will definitely be worthwhile looking into.
