Tips for legoland windsor

amc1

Hi, going next week. Any tips ?

Already been told to take a packed lunch and clean clothes.

But any must-see shows/rides, order of events, etc. etc.

Thx.

take swimming things for kids ( if the weather is good !) as theres a water play area

have a look on the theme park thread, on days out forum

phone up in the morning to check that its not fully packed and by the time you get there..its not letting more people in due to overcrowding!

Don't pay the £5 or £10 for VIP parking. If you turn up early (9am) then you'll get a space in the next car park which will be a max of 150 yards further and save money!

Some of the big rides (Dragon rollercoaster) don't open until 10.30 or 11am depending on season so no point rushing to them.

Packed lunch is a definate must - some people leave it in the car, and get a pass out so as not to carry around. I have seen people eating it in the carpark, then go back in.

Lockers cost £1 each time you open them.

Try and get there when the park opens, and go on one ride first thing, then head for adventureland which opens at 10:30 to do another ride.

Save the miniland stuff until last

There is a new water ride in the vikings area that looks good - the staircase from the welcome area was not open last week but it might be now

There is another water ride that looks good in the Adventure land area (my kid is 3 so not really old enough for this one quite yet)

I like the fairytale brook but this is for little kids really. My son loves the JCB diggers and the fire station ride.

The queues at the dinosaur train ride are never that long, ditto duplo land so these can be good to go to when everywhere else seems full. The rat trap (giant adventure playground) is a great place to each packed lunch as the kids can run in and out.
