Hi everyone!
We will be heading to Alton Towers on Friday 11th July - last time we were there was about 8 years ago so a lot has changed! I am trying to come up with a plan for how to fit all the rides in but I'm getting a bit stuck.
We will be using ERT but from the looks of the website the rides that offer this are spread out quite a lot, so I am not sure of which area is best to go to first. We are two adults, and are looking to go on the thrill rides, but not the kiddie rides.
My initial thoughts are at 9am head to Runaway Mine Train, then Oblivion, then wait for Smiler to open at 10. After Smiler, then head for Sonic Spinball (as I remember the queues being quite bad for this), then Rita, followed by Th13rteen. Then Rapids, Flume and Sharkbait Reef. Then towards the end of the day head over to Nemesis, Air and Sub Terra.
So I am looking for a bit of advice from you experts! Is that plan do-able? Would you swap things around in any way? Are there any must do's I have forgotten on there?
Any help and suggestions would be much appreciated!
Thanks
