Alton TowersIs the most popular theme park in the UK with many exciting roller coasters and attractions, making it a perfect day out for a gang of mates or all the family. Its central location means that it is easy to get to from pretty much all of England, Wales and Scotland. The Park is divided in to 13 different areas, all with a theme edge, the place hit first is the 'X-Sector' home to the infamous Oblivion, with a vertical drop that will leave you questioning how you survived. The 'Forbidden Valley' houses the 'Nemesis' another thrill-a-minute fun-feast; other infamous rides include the 'Corkscrew' and the 'Hex'.When's it Open? Everyday from 1st April to 29th October from the early hour of 9.30am to as late as 7pm in peak times. What's the damage? Full price:
How Do I get there? It is easy to get to by car or by rail, from the M1, take 23a if coming from the north or 28 from the South or from the M6 take Junction 15 from the North 16 if from the south. Once you turn off keep those eyes peeled for signposts and it should be easy enough to find. During its opening season Midland Mainline and Virgin Trains offer a discount rail package.
