- What new rides and roller coasters would we build, IF we owned Alton Towers?
Join Scott, Stephen and Mike for a fun speculative video about the future of Alton Towers as we each pick a different type of roller coaster, water ride, flat and new entertainment offerings we'd add to the existing lineup at Alton Towers Resort.

Steve and his love of drop rides....especially Intamin. I'm so glad he was asked.
A water coaster would be great. Unique and high capacity. If they can work around the noise complaints they’d get from Intamin launches that’d be awesome. I’m sure there’s plenty coming. I agree that they might as well use the 4D building for something as well. Enjoyed the speculation :)
I’ve been hoping they’d get a water coaster for ages, probably never happen 😂
Haha back with the water ride, totally agree tho!
Everytime I go to towers I find myself missing flat rides, if Ripsaws coming back that's a start, would love to see a nicely themed flat added in X-Sector, personal favourite would be a Breakdance
Hi There, a great perspective and thanks for sharing your thoughts, it's greatly appreciated. Cheers Peter :) p.s. the new Forbidden Valley Flat Ride may have some water jets on it. p.p.s. I agree that Alton Towers definitely needs a new water ride.
There’s a lot of dead space between Hex/Sky Ride/Walliams/Dungeons.
I reckon you could squeeze a couple of flats or one bigger ride in there. Flats would be easier as less height issues.
Get the Dungeon back to a proper dark ride, sort out Project Horizon, re-theme Walliams, and that end of the park suddenly has a massive new lease of life.
That whole area definitely needs a new lease of life
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Your insightful knowledge for all things rides is right up there. Only way it could have been improved is to have pictures/videos of all the attractions you were discussing not just some of them.
Well done fellas.
Thank you 🙏 My bad for the lack of ride footage in this, it ended up being an unusually quick turnaround for something like this. Thank you for the feedback, appreciated 😁
I was wondering when you were going to bring up a log flume/ water coaster! 😂
It’s a priority for this park IMO 👀
Looking forward to this 🥰🥰
Hope you like it!
Mike's ideas are alwaye very well thoughr through. Credit where credits due. Steve trim those brows 😂
We gave Mike some stick for the Boomerang idea to be fair 😅
@@yourexperienceguide 😂😂
4:51 Get rid of Oblivion and smiler, not Rita?
Good stuff lads keep it up x
Thank you! Will do!
All year round scare attraction?? Hmm the park definitely haven’t tried that 🤔🤔
if i owned alton towers i would put a new water ride in like storm force 10 at drayton manor
Old tech but a popular attraction
I would bring in some Californian redwoods, that would sort the tree line height problem out 😂😂😂😂
i would move the smiler to forbidden valley and galactica into x sector obv both retheme and for galactica retrack
Would love to see a new launch coaster at Alton towers potentially a Mack multiple launch would be amazing to see, something with a bit of length as I feel a lot of the coasters there are very short. Definitely need a new water ride wonder if they could theme a horror style water ride around the ruins as a dark ride potentially 🤷♂️
Great vlog guys, your right about the towers its got so much potential, its a shame to do nothing really with it
Thank you 🙏
@@yourexperienceguide no problem, like hearing your input, on rudes
@@catherineclark4484rides? This is a family channel thank you very much.
Since the removal of The Flume they are in desperate need of a thrilling water ride. Next Gen Water coaster/ Shuttle/shoot the chute.. heck they have launched log flumes now, take your pick. P.s If BPB can fit a multilaunch in-between big dipper, big one and steeplechase don't see how Oblivion has to be removed to accommodate any coaster lol.
P.s I agree with Mike on oblivion. Also r.e spikes what about thunderlooper they were like 140ft tall!
Oblivion is approaching the same fate as Nemesis so decisions will need to be made
Alton towers desperately needs a new water ride....I would also remove air/galatica and replace it a new sw..
A new water ride should be a priority really
All the different Intamin drop towers of every type they have ever made including 1st Gen
Behave 😂
Was Michael wearing a hoffenhiem shirt 🤣🤣
Not for the first time either 👀
Flat rides:
On the enterprise site
I agree with Mike with a ride like Jukebox at Liseberg that spins well
I’d personally chose a newer generation Huss Breakdance. Another interesting ride design could be a new gen air race that can lift up a little, it should just about pass under the height requirements
Rethemes
Carnt think of much, maybe Spinball Whizzer as it has minimal theming but it’s aging and is more likely to get replaced
Family area
Definitely Walliams needs swapping for a non IP I think maybe a sweets and candy theme like Sweet Valley in Energylandia, swap Raj bouncy burp ride for a pair of zierer towers like fire and ice free fall at Legoland, gangsta granny/dungeons could become a giant sweet factory and be a TRACKLESS dark ride
Water ride
On roller disco site I think either a Mack rides twist and splash like SpongeBob at pleasure beach or a mini log flume with medium wetness, wetter than rapids but not as bad as battle galleons, similar height/length of Rugrats, these could be swamp themed tofit in with dark forest, the Mack twist and splash could be a big spooky tree. A Mack water coaster would need more space, I’d put it in Galacticas site
Shows & entertaiment
Expand on the themed actors in the areas like dark forest and c sector
Show venues could be front lawns stage , fountain square stage and utilise the ice age building and a show on the lake would be very cool
Rollercoaster
Interesting subject
Intamin Blitz/multi launch or Mack Multi launch in the site of Rita or an Intamin launch coaster, any Mack coaster or a vekoma flyer on Galacticas site, a Mack water coaster would benefit Galacticas site, a medium sized coaster maybe a new gen vekoma could replace Spinball Whizzer
Thank you for sharing these ideas 😊
Do you not like many flat rides? Im not a fan but quite like samurai, and vortex. Im not keen on drop towers at all. Mystery castle was a massive swerve for me. But talocan was good
Not a massive fan, some of them are decent but they’re not essential in my opinion - Scott
@@yourexperienceguide completely agree mate. Much prefer coasters. Do you wait with the bags while stephen and mick go on them? I often do 😂
Scott I’ve got a Towers / Pleasure beach challenge for you. Try and get on as many rides as you can in alphabetical order (e.g. start with Avalanche, then Big one, etc). Can you get on all of them?
BPB maybe, but Towers would be insane, I’ve worked it out at 3.9 miles of walking excluding queue lines, and those queue lines are massive at Towers
It’s probably doable at BPB on a 10pm close but not at Towers due to the walking
Will you do a curse at Alton manor VIP event?
We keep asking 🤞🏼
Walliams world would be good as a Lego themed area, including Dungeons and Coaster Corner.
Interesting idea, thanks for commenting 😊
Remove spinball whizzer and get the 2 for 1 log flume / coaster package from vekoma to replace it. Id love to have them add a traditional fair ground ride area and have several classic rides. While its retro squad 2.0 but theme it to a carters fair style. It could go up near the towers in front of hex as thats quite a large area that needs something doing with it i think. Id add several more modern flats in all the other major areas, what they would be im unsure but they have to be permanent and themed in to each area. As for new coasters we need a water coaster which could interact with the rapids area and be worked into the area and have it be a launched coaster to aid the height requirements of a lift hill.
A shot / drop tower would be amazing to be fitted into the tower ruins somehow if planning permission was given.
As for the park id scrap the monorail and re locate the main entrance near the main car park area which would open up the current entrance area for future expansion. Id also expand the cable car around the whole of the park for a complete full park transport system as i think this could be done. Also bring back mc donalds and other main chain food outlets as the current food offerings are over priced and horrible i think
Problem is they’ve just spent however much on Nemesis so as fun as the 2 Vekoma ideas is, they’d end up with two of the same ride type.
Accessibility (Monorail / Sky Ride) are in urgent need of modernisation

I'd love Walliams land to become a Sir Algenon land to promote the hotel and expand the lore
Call me crazy but a doctor who themed area where walliams land is would be so good. The show seems to be ageless and its something all the family can enjoy
Remove Spinball and replace it with a skyline duelling spagetti bowl coaster.
Remove blade and replace it with S&S scream and swing
Remove the dungeons and the entire ride. Replace it with a flying Theatre
I always thought a skyline ride like Harley Quins crazy coaster would of fitted in X Sector but obviously with the issues it had it would off been disastrous.
Remove rapids and use the terrain for an intamin multi launch coaster
