Times are tough for most people right now but everyone needs to let their hair down every now and again!  A day or two at Alton Towers is a great way to have fun and get away from it all.  If you need to take a break why not consider a visit to the theme park?  If you plan your trip in advance there are plenty of ways to save money when you visit Alton Towers. 

Here are just a few things you might like to consider:

OR find a money off voucher if you want to purchase tickets on the day at the gate.
If your a group do you qualify for a discount?

Travelling by car?  Get a money off fuel voucher (Tesco have them at the moment) and save money when you fill up your fuel tank.

Travelling by public transport?  If you book train journeys in advance you can often get a cheaper ticket. 
If the last part of your journey to Alton village is by bus would a taxi be cheaper if there are a few of you travelling together?

Service stations are expensive so why not make a picnic to eat when you take a break during your journey.

The cost of soft drinks, sweets and snacks can add up!  Purchase a few treats from your local supermarket to bring with you.
