It is the best feeling when you close your eyes on your way home, feeling as if the car is going to make a sharp turn, upside down. The new ride, the Swarm (Europe's first winged roller coaster) is a thrilling ride that leaves you dizzy and excited (though I was slightly alarmed at how the crash test dummies were... erm, damaged). Others of my favourite rides are Stealth, Saw, Nemesis Inferno and Tidal Wave. However thrilling it may be, I would say that Thorpe Park is not good financially.

I have long loved the thrill of getting on a roller coaster and screaming my lungs off and that is why Thorpe Park was so ideal for me. It has a wide variety of rides, from the very extremes of SAW to fun water rides such as Tidal Wave (which you get absolutely drenched in) so it makes a great day out for anyone! With many events throughout the year such as Fright Nights (when the park is open until 10pm) and Bonfire Night events, this is one of my favourite places to go when seeking enjoyment. It is the best feeling when you close your eyes on your way home, feeling as if the car is going to make a sharp turn, upside down. The new ride, the Swarm (Europe's ...  Read the complete review

I do love me a bit of Thorpe Park. I live just outside of London, about an hour away from the park, so I've been here a good 8 or 9 times now, so any specific questions about specific rides/the park in general, I will be very happy to answer :) To give you a brief overview, Thorpe Park really is very diverse. You are faced with a big, open stretch of park which is very easily navigated around. It doesn't have the spectacle as bigger theme parks such as Disneyland; it is a theme park very much focused on the rides. Trecking around the park all day can often be tiring, so I'd say only go to Thorpe Park if you're willing to queue and walk around. The park is ...  Read the complete review

GETTING THERE I tend to visit Thorpe Park at least three times a year. I live in Dover, Kent and it took us 90minutes to get there. Thorpe Park is well sign posted from the M25 onwards so finding the park is relatively easy. Thorpe Park is situated between junctions 11 and 13 of the M25 but access from Junction 12 is not possible from the M25. TICKET PRICES We paid £40.80 each for an adult entrance ticket to the park. If you book online you can make a saving of £5.50. Thorpe Park gives you the option of getting something called a Fast Track ticket, which basically means that you get to jump the queue on the main rides. You will be allocated with a ...  Read the complete review

For the first time in a few years, today I went on a trip to Thorpe Park. My Nan gave me and my cousins some free tickets that she had managed to get out of the newspaper, so we all went together, along with my partner. Thorpe Park is a theme park set in the town of Chertsey, in Surrey. It is actually only about half an hour drive from me, yet I have not been for about 5 years until today. The park is known as the Nation's Thrill Capital, and has a large selection of rides, amusements and food places within the park. Firstly, to get to the park is quite easy. If you drive, the most known ways is off of Junctions 11 or 13 (do not use 12, it doesn't ...  Read the complete review

This time yesterday (11:00) you would of found me with just about steady hands after going on Saw and waiting in the queue for Rush. Thorpe Park was the first major theme park that I've been to so maybe it was to be expected that I would be screaming my head off, what with the rides being a lot more thrilling than the smaller attractions. Thankfully we were lucky with the day we picked as although it was warm it was also quite overcast and grey. No doubt if it was all sunshine and heat the queues might of been double the size. Although I do like Theme Parks this one was a lot bigger and the rides a lot higher. As scared as I was there were very few rides which I ...  Read the complete review
