Hi there,
Deliberately set up an account on here to ask some questions as the Alton Towers official online chat has a waiting time longer than Wickerman.....
So, I'm visiting with 3 younger ones on Friday (all above 140cm) and I was hoping some of you good folk could offer some advice as to be honest I'm a bit worried having read some of the recent reviews of the place...I used to be a regular but not been for about 5 years now....
1. Park opens at 10am but can you actually get in before then to queue for a ride?
2. I managed to get Bronze Fast Track tickets in advance ( that's all they had left ). Only one barcode though for 4 rides - does anyone know how they differentiate between rides?
3. I pre-booked Fast Track Solo rides for The Smiler as it wasn't on the Bronze list. Looks like it's going to be closed when we visit if recent weeks are to go by - can I get a refund? If so, how? Or can they simply move my solo fast track to another ride?
4. See question 1......but any thoughts on best order to ride? My initial thought was that everyone goes to Wickerman first and then the hotel guests might be at Nemesis/Galactica so maybe Rita/13 first (plus they're not on the fast track bronze package) and get there before 10 to join a hopefully short queue and tick them both off?
Any thoughts/comments/tips/hints/shortest toilet queue advice appreciated!
