CBeebies land @ Alton towers - how bad are the queues?

Herzlos

I was looking at stopping at Alton Towers for a day with the kids (3 & 2), but the reviews seem to mention queues of up to an hour for some rides. Are they really that bad?
I can probably get 10-20 minutes waiting out of mine but an hour would be a nightmare!

That very much depends when you go. I've only ever been during off-peak times and there were no queues to speak off. I'd imagine that weekends and school holidays would be horrific.

We're potentially looking at a Sunday and Monday, a couple of weeks before the school holidays start. I might just try and find something else for the Sunday!

Queues of up to an hour for the big rollercoasters during nice sunny Saturdays and school holidays yes, but I highly doubt the rides in CBeebies will be anywhere near that, especially not outside school holidays.

This will give you an idea if you look the week before you intend to go , i would say Monday is the better day

As we speak some rides are an hour in Cbeebies land at 17:09 on a Saturday they would have been higher earlier in the day , i would think Sunday will be the same

We went a few years ago and headed to Cbeebies land first as my youngest nephew could get on everything. The queues were so horrendous that we went on a few things and then quickly moved to other areas of the park.

That wasn't through the summer holidays.
