3. Alton Towers; Fastrack Solos

Fastrack Solos offer you 1 fastrack entry to a selected ride and are only available on the day from the park. A Fastrack Solos can give you a head start on a popular ride that allows you to concentrate on the other main thrill attractions & slot in a fastrack ride during busy times at the park. Be aware that Fastrack Solo tickets at Alton Towers sell out fast so best to make your purchase at the beginning of the day if this is for you. For a budget quick fix, why not opt for a Fastrack Solo for a couple of the more popular rides such Nemesis Reborn & Smiler.

4. Alton Towers; Single Rider

Look at for Single Ride queues for select rides at the park that offers you faster access to ride but without your friends & family.  We’ve seen the Single Rider queue in operation at The Smiler at Alton Towers; simply ensure you enter the correct queue as you arrive and you’ll be ushered onto any available space within a carriage.

5. Alton Towers; The Early Bird

Not many people realise that the car park, monorail & park itself opens significantly earlier than the stipulated ride times.  On our recent visit, the monorail was running an hour before the rides opened for the day which meant we were actually in the park 40 minutes before the rides opened for the day! Don’t wait for the Sky Ride to open if you’re aiming for Nemesis Reborn within Forbidden Valley.  It’s around a 10 minute walk simply by taking the clearly marked path from the edge of Battle Galleons via Gloomy Wood .

6. Alton Towers; Queue Before The Ride Opens

Join the start of the queue that forms outside your selected main thrill ride. As the gates open at the stipulated ride opening time, you’ll be able to navigate the walk through to the ride to access entry.  This will be undoubtably be the shortest queue time you’ll find during the theme park day as queues tend to build throughout the day.  As with any theme park, the first 60/90 minutes of the day gives you the quietest time at the park.

7. Alton Towers; Non-Queue Attractions

As the park gets busy, intersperse rides with large non-queue attractions that allows children to run off steam & adults can take a well earned break.  Look out for the Sharkbait Reef SEA LIFE Centre, get active at the Training Camp Adventure Playground or take in a show within CBeebies Land.  Remember there are also other children’s rides away from CBeebies Land within Cloud Cuckoo Land that can be less busy too.

10. Alton Towers; Work Anti-clockwise

Thrill seekers often enjoy rides from the front of the park, starting with Spinball Whizzer, before working clockwise around the park.  Buck the trend & head straight to the Forbidden Valley/Dark Forest before moving towards the front of the park as queues for Nemesis Reborn are likely to build throughout the day.

11. Alton Towers; Queue Times

Keep an eye out for current queue times and any rides not operating that day either via the Alton Towers App or information boards displayed at the beginning of each ride.  By taking account of accurate queue times for particular rides, you can circumnavigate the park avoiding the the worst of the queues.

12. It’s The Queue NOT The Ride That Shuts!

Not many people realise that it’s the queue that shuts at the advertised closing time NOT the actual ride.  If you stay to the end this gives you another chance at the main rides with generally shorter queue times.

 

Alton Towers Car Parking Machines

13. Alton Towers; NEW Exit Point

Look out for the new exit point to be found within Forbidden Valley that leads you directly into the standard car park.  This offers for a swifter exit bypassing the need for the monorail back to the car park.  This exit point tends to open up about 30 minutes after the rides close for the day as it is primarily there for Rollercoaster Restaurant guests but is available to theme park visitors too.

15. Alton Towers; Parking

Most theme park guests travelling by car now need to purchase a car parking ticket that is in addition to your theme park entry.  You can either opt for Standard Parking that is more cost effective or Express Parking for a swifter entrance/exit into the park. There are still a few ways to bypass the car parking charges and you can find out more within our Guide to Alton Towers Parking.

16. Alton Towers; Drop Off/Collection

There is a FREE drop off/collection area close to the main entrance into Alton Towers if you can arrange a lift.  This not only circumnavigates the parking charges but also allows you quicker access into the park too with more information available at Alton Towers; Drop Off/Collection.

19. Alton Towers Dungeon

Whilst Alton Towers Dungeon is set to close Summer 2024, you’ve still time to experience the thrills as you’re taken through gruesome tales of old.  This 45 minute experience is in addition to your theme park entry charges so you may want to hedge your bets and purchasing on the day, (subject to availability).  If this is a must for you, then you can add this attraction onto your theme park tickets as there are discounts available if you book in advance.  Passholders can also pick up discounts off standard ticket prices.

20. Buy Now/Collect Later Service

If you are making any large purchases, look out for the buy-now-collect-later service that is available from each of the kiosks.  Simply make your purchase, including a 5p carrier bag, & complete a form.  You’ll then be able to pick up your merchandise from Towers Training, close to the main exit, during the last hour of the day.
