We've just got back from the best holiday to Ferrari Land and Portaventura Park. It was perfect. There will be plenty of blog posts to come but for now, I've made a little video to show the highlights of what was the most wonderful holiday of my life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQm2-kyeX1c&feature=youtu.be
In a week's time, I'm going to be visiting Portaventura in Salou, Spain for the first time. We'll be hitting up both the Portaventura park and Ferrari Land, braving their spooky Halloween offerings, and enjoying the shows and rides for 7 days. To say I'm excited would be an understatement. But with all trips, especially... Continue Reading →
Summer is over, September is here, and the sun is retreating which means it is almost one of my favourite times of the year! Halloween is coming! This is a time full of everything spooky, pumpkins and crisp Autumn weather. As a huge horror fan, Halloween has always held a special place in my heart... Continue Reading →
Scarefest is Alton Towers' Halloween offering and has been running (in various forms) since the early 2000s, with the official Scarefest starting in 2007. The event has had a number of changes throughout the years but one thing that has remained fairly constant is the scare mazes. These actor-led experiences tend to be full of... Continue Reading →
I'm going to get one thing out the way now: I love dark rides. I love how intensely themed you can go with this kind of ride and how creative, unique and original they can be. The UK isn't known for its dark rides really but that doesn't mean we don't have some amazing ones... Continue Reading →

Alton Towers is one of the best and biggest theme parks in the UK and is probably best known for its offering of roller coasters. Holding the world record for the roller coaster with the most inversions as well as a bunch of world and Europe's firsts, Alton Towers doesn't do things by halves. So... Continue Reading →
Blackpool Pleasure Beach is a brilliant and historic park that is known for its classic woodies, its 1994 club addition The Big One and a lot more quality coaster action. With 10 roller coasters (including 2 geared towards children), the park makes for great riding for everyone. But which are the best? Here's our roller... Continue Reading →
Nemesis: Sub Terra opened in March 2012 at Alton Towers as a new dark ride, something the park definitely needed. Though opening to some pretty harsh criticism, Alton Towers took the negative feedback, did some work and came back stronger with the revamped ride winning over a lot of people. Despite this improvement, over the... Continue Reading →
We don't get a huge amount of time to truly appreciate this country's water rides since the UK doesn't usually get too hot. Occasionally though, the sun decides to show its face and we get some good solid summer weather. With the temperatures climbing, one of my favourite things to do at the theme park...
