Do you prefer it alone or with friends?

I have often visited alone to both towers and other parks.

For parks i know well such as towers and bpb its a chance to blow a few hours at my pace with few compromises. Can also pick my own date and time.

For new parks i enjoy the discovery rather than being guided. So would prefer to be with peoples who were also on virgin territory.

I went alone to Cedar Point and my first trip to Europa i deliberately separated from the tst group for a while.

As theman said earlier, it is quite common when alone to make an acquaintance just by being an allocated single rider and continue to bump into them throughout the day or even deliberately team up.

One thing i do as a lone adult male is to avoid obvious children's areas ( cloud cuckoo land for instance). Maybe being over cautious but its the only change to a visit i make when alone.
 
Visiting alone is probably best because you can visit whenever you want, the single rider queues are never that big and you can go on whatever rides you want.
 
Over the last couple of years when I had a season pass I went to Pleasurewood Hills alone, and am now saving up for another season pass, most likely a Merlin one, going to a theme park alone can be great, you don't have to queue as long, if you see friends, you can just hang out with them for a bit.
 
I mainly do it alone, I'm not the best of persons to get up early for towers, make my girlfriend be my alarm clock lol. Tbh I enjoy alton towers on my own, if I go pleasure beach Ile end up bumping into someone I know, and get rather bored with them. As I like to whore infusion.
If I go to alton with my girlfriend, she will go on most rides except. Subterra, th13teen and smiler. While I'm on my own once I have done the rides, I like to take time out and chill in the gardens.
