Each Thrill Hopper ticket offers you one admission to all four of the following:

• Water World
• Alton Towers
  
• Drayton Manor Theme Park
• Tamworth Snowdome, (limited to specific activities)

You can use the Thrill Hopper ticket throughout the season with a single ticket priced at  £44.95 or a family ticket for £129.95.  This is a substantial saving against the cost of four separate entries to these attractions and, as it is valid throughout the season, you can space out your trips!

Your Thrill Hopper ticket is valid for either a 30 minute toboggan or tubing session at the SnowDome & it’s vital to pre-book your chosen activity as sessions run to specific times only.

Whilst all other settings under the Thrill Hopper ticket offer full day entrance, the SnowDome’s offer of one half hour activity session is less appealing.  However if you view this more as a bonus activity or a chance to try something new, it’s a good additional extra under the scheme.

We chose the tobogganing activity and had the time of our lives taking on the slopes of Tamworth at breathtaking  speed!  By using the travelator to the top of the 170 metre main slope, you navigate the course by using the brakes on the toboggan to steer your way down the slope..or that’s the theory anyway!  What a great way to finish off our Thrill Hopper tickets!
