    Hi,

    Does entry include rides/ some rides or how does it work? We are planning a day over midterm. Any other tips welcome. 7 & 10 yrs old kids.

    Went a few years back and all rides were included in the entry fee. Stayed on site. Probably better watching a few youtube videos to get tips. Was really packed when I was there and not enjoyable

    If you can find out when UK. Schools are on midterm and avoid that , and UK bank holiday weekends

    It's a few years since I was there , stayed over night , and did 2 days at the park , the first day was a bank holiday in England , place packed - great buzz , but the ques were outrageous, so we just wandered around , did mainly non que stuff - as it got later more people left and the ques became bearable

    Next day was total opposite, no one around , straight onto every ride ..

    We went on 18th of March. British schools were open and apart from a school tour it was empty. Could even stay on some rides to go around again. It’s designed for kids your age than teenagers. We just did a day trip and got the Elizabeth line and uber to it. A day trip was enough with it so quiet. Not sure it’s worth the money if packed.

    But if you get a good day and no queuing bar waiting for next group or a couple of minutes max it’s fine

    we also went on paddy’s weekend. Sunday was busy, whereas Monday was empty. Highly recommend that time

    As above. all rides are included in the ticket price.

    It's only a short journey to Windsor or Slough if you want to stay somewhere cheap the night beforehand. I'd recommend running for the mythica cinema thing first as it's a long loading time and hence long queue (if you're first in the queue, you'll still be 30-40 mins before you're out).

    we did it on easter weekend. Plenty around. Queue for the rides took a bit of time. I think you can buy fast track.

    We stayed at premier inn terminal 4 heathrow. And did london another day and Windsor another

    Looking up the reserve options. Janey, that's very expensive but we've only one day. Even the cheaper of thr reserve passes are about 39pounds each ot 10 pounds per ride each! We're new to the whole large scale theme park so want to get the best out of it but....

    Went about three years ago.

    Found it awful. Overcrowded, lots of rides closed, understaffed and those staff that were there were youngsters who obviously weren't interested. Very poor food and expensive.

    For half the money you could have a great day at any decent seaside resort.

    We went this year at Easter. Stayed in a Premier Inn in High Wycombe. Not fancy but did the job great. Got a hire car as well so that we could do some other bits.

    All the rides are included. It's not the cheapest day out but it was good fun. One thing we noticed was that it rained a little while we were there & the queues disappeared - Mythica went from being over 1hr 40mins queue time to 15mins. The app was great for judging times as well for queues. Honestly most were fine though except for some of the much larger ones. We got there just as it opened & left just as it closed. 1 good hint I got before going was don't get the train going down but rather get it coming back up at the end of the day. Loads of people start at the back of the park & work their way forwards. We did the opposite & didn't get caught with a lot of the queues.
