How To Get To Alton Towers By Coach

15th November 2022

bus trip alton towers

You don't need a car at the theme park and resort Alton Towers to participate in the excitement. The resort is well-connected by public transportation. Train travel and group coach hire to the resort is an option for young travellers, big groups, and eco-conscious vacationers.

Coaches may not be the first mode of transportation that comes to mind when considering a trip, but they are an excellent and reasonably priced option.

Solid Grounds for Travelling to Alton Towers By Coach

  • No more staying up late to navigate challenging websites, no more paying extra for bags, and no more disagreements about which route to take. Instead, travelling by coach enables you to unwind and relish the occasion.
  • Even the most excited tourists may experience anxiety when trying to find their way around the areas, nations, and cities they intend to see. Coach travel is a blessing for many of these tourists.
  • Coaches are the more environmentally friendly mode of transportation and help to ease traffic. More than 20 vehicles are replaced by a bus transporting 50 passengers, freeing up space in parking lots and minimising environmental harm.
  • As soon as you board the coach, you become your own small group that travels together, experiences the same things, and enjoys life on the road. It's a fantastic opportunity to meet new people and possibly develop lasting friendships, as many people do! Many people who travel alone like the company that coach tours offer.

Why Visit Alton Towers?

The ideal approach to enjoy a fun-filled holiday with friends and family is to go to Alton Towers Resort! Alton Towers Resort is the top theme park in the UK, offering more than 40 rides and attractions for visitors of all ages. Children may enjoy live performances, thrilling rides, and encounters with their favourite CBeebies characters, while thrill seekers can get a buzz from some of the most spectacular roller coasters.

Alton Towers Resort offers activities for the whole family, thrilling experiences, and the UK's first rollercoaster restaurant. It's no surprise it continues to be one of our most popular theme park coach trips for families.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

The first scheme of Moscow Metro looked like a bunch of separate lines. Listen to a myth about Joseph Stalin and the main brown line of Moscow Metro.
