    I know it’s nostalgia talking and I don’t really remember much from the ride apart from Sonic, but it’s criminal that the UK used to have really fun and unique dark rides for kids that gave us the “Disney” feel, and now they’ve all been replaced.

    once autumn starts, I find myself coming back to this video a lot. My trips to Alton Towers were normally in October for Scarefest, so Alton Towers is very much a autumn thing for me, with Toyland Tours being my favourite ride, I loved the floating feeling as you went around. So sad its no longer around. I really hope they bring it back with upgrades and improvements. It'd get so much attention <3 or at least I'd give the ride lots of attention 😂

    This ride was my childhood. Along with its retheme Charlie, I grew up with this ride when I went for my first rides in 2005 and then my first ride on Charlie in 2006 (opening year). So many memories came flooding back watching this ride footage

  • @karlbristow1223

    Genuinely I think it was a catastrophe they replaced this with Charlie and the chocolate factory. The new ride was completely soulless and lacking in character. I’d love it if Alton Towers restored the original ride just as it was with sonic and the dancing hippo right at the end! Make it happen! Anything is possible!

    went on this ride the same year it opened pretty good memories even though i was just 4 at the time, really enjoyed it especially the sonic room, it was actually the only time coincidently i ever went to alton towers i wish i would have seen it again a couple of times prior to closing.
