Remembering Toyland Tours | The Magical Alton Towers Dark Ride

In 1994 Alton Towers opened one of the most magical dark rides to ever be seen in the United Kingdom. Toyland Tours took guests on a boat ride through a wonderful Toy Factory, filled with teddy bears, flying Elephants and even Sonic The Hedgehog! In this video I take a look back on the history of this Alton Towers classic along with sharing my favourite moments and memories from this incredible dark ride.
This video is part of our Remembering Rides series here on Theme Park Worldwide. In this series of videos I'll be talking all about a variety of rides, attractions and theme parks that are no longer with us. I'll also be looking into the history of these attractions along with sharing my favourite memories!

I was about 10 years old when I first went on this, back in 1996. I had to say I didn't like it, so I looked cool in front of my mates, but deep down, I loved it. Totally agree, Shawn. They should have never gotten rid of it. That soundtrack is absolutely classic. Cheers for the video.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Love this. Such a wonderful ride that I miss very much, especially that epic finale!

[@jackwardley1951]

I wish that I could have gone on Toyland Tours it looks so good.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was a fantastic ride

[@ToonyKid]

Agreed. They oughta bring it back for a whole new generation!

[@anonymoustipster202]

Toyland Tours looks better than Bubbleworks

[@paulebbens7739]

Great video Shawn. I'm in my 40s so I can remember Around the world in 80 days as well. It was a great ride , similar to It's a Small World. It had some nice touches of its own such as Egypt being hot and the artic area blasting you with cold air. The entrance station had a wonderful atmosphere. I was a bit too old for the target audience for Toyland Tours when it opened but it was a great dark ride. It was a huge mistake to replace it with the chocolate factory ride. We lost one of the best original dark rides in this country. The current dungeon is a poor replacement, the park needs more family rides not a scary paid extra attraction. Such a shame Toyland Tours wasn't kept going with proper maintenance maybe some additional modern effects mapping. Thanks for the memories with this video.

Another fabulous look back Video Shawn !!! I too got to ride this many times as kid and adored it !!!! So so magical !! And truly still reminds me of a Disney Park style attraction !! Really miss Toyland Tours, thank you so much for this lovely look back !

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks Jack. I miss it very much!

[@jhc_fan]

Alton towers in the late 1990s was truly magical - it might not have had as may coasters, but it had great dark rides, so much live entertainment, a variety of themes, rides for all ages including lots of flat rides, a proper mascot and even a parade.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It certainly was a very magical park!

[@davids3779]

This ride looks super creative and colorful. This is good imagination right there.

[@myles8328]

What a wonderful trip down memory lane, I found it quite emotional watching that. I remember loving that ride right up into my teens. And I’d forgotten some of the whacky set pieces and that music! The days when Alton Towers really was a magical day out. Still awesome but in the 90s it had a certain sparkle. Nostalgia, that is! I also remember Around the world in 80 days. It had a lot of smell pods, a very distinctive soundtrack, the Paris moulin rouge scene was particularly iconic as well as the Siam one. We used to do that and the spooky walk through Doom & Sons one after the other as they were all in the ‘Talbot St’ area. Anyway, a terrific video, and that will take me onto my thoughts for your Alton Towers predictions/wishlist!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you very much!

[@riggersrides]

I agree.the best ride Alton ever had. Shaun you should have included the POV that's on KZbin for everyone to see.

[@rosie_playz1233]

Omg early I love Alton towers me and my family and one friend go a few times every year I would go more but I live 2/5 hours away (btw)u r in my top 10 fav youtubers u r amazinggggg! I am second or first viewer it took me forever to think what I was going to say ❤️.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you very much!

[@PeterNancarrow]

I remember when it was 'around the world in 80 days'! I'm getting old! One thing I remember is really well is that in the room at the end of the ride (where the pink hippo was) they used to display models of upcoming rides. You can just make this out on a couple of KZbin videos.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I would of loved to experienced it!

[@paulebbens7739]

That's right they did. I remember a model of the Haunted House went up the year before it opened. I used to like Doom and Sons round the corner. It was a spooky walk round attraction. Sadly there seem to be very few videos or photos of it about.

[@thecaledoniansleeper2648]

Out all of Alton Towers’ 4 dark rides throughout every decade, Toyland Tours was their absolute banger. I might pretty much say that it was Alton Towers’ “based” dark ride. Plus, Sonic was in there too.

[@MalcolmParsons]

I remember going on Around the world in 80 days every year as a child. It's the only ride I've recorded a POV of. I also remember it was next to an enormous McDonalds :)

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was a fantastic ride!

[@CoasterRob]

I was 2 years old when Toyland Tours was there unfortunately I didn't discover Alton Towers until 2013/2014 so I never got to experience it

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was such an epic ride!

[@mattccross]

I think we all prefer the version from when we were kids. Mine was "Around the World in 80 days". I still have gone memories of Toyland Tours though - that music!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I’d love to of experienced that

[@attractionshubno1]

Another great video as always Shawn mate and unfortunately I don’t think I experienced Toyland Tours

[@TommyandtheAnts]

I'm not joking, when I was a kid I was absolutely terrified of Toyland Tours, there was a giant elephant that gave me nightmares. I've been back to Alton Towers many times since it scared me as a kid but was always to scared to go back on even as a teenager. 😂 Seeing this video has made me kinda sad I never went back to face my fears, seems to have made loads of people very happy and was totally nowhere near as scary as my 5 year old brain had made it 😂

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I can see why you might of found it scary, the size of the set pieces was huge!

[@03markimark]

I absolutely LOVED this ride so much. Both as a child and as an adult. It was magical. I can’t believe they closed, all the replacements have been crap.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was such a magical ride!

[@Cuddly_CatLady]

I agree on it being the worst decision , to this day i am so disappointed they got rid of it. I have fond memories in the late 90s racing to go on that ride as a kid and loving every minute. There was never any queues then , I remember always walking straight on. Getting to see after over 15 years footage of the ride, means so much.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was such a fantastic ride with great theming!

[@Rich_Ride_27]

I been going Alton since 1994 and as Nemesis was my main reason for going and I just though I won't bother with Toyland Tours as its for kids but now I'm regretting it.

[@Shadowbiology]

i have defenitly been on this ride as i can remember, it was so much fun and i defenitly recalled the carnival of screams useing the music is a creepy way.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was such a wonderful ride!

[@Siarosebell]

I grew up in The States but I actually had a holiday home near Alton Towers that I’d visit every year from when I was 7 until I was 10 so I only got to ride Toyland Tours once and that was before it closed but I do have fond memories of Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. I just wish that they’d bring back either one of these.

[@daynajenkin9183]

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

[@TheLeccY]

Totally agree mate, that and the haunted house need to come back! I did get to do around the world and that was really good as well, much like the water ride in blackpool but toyland tours was amazing I had the soundtrack on cassette tape, the Haunted house on one side and toyland tours on the other it was the best alton towers merch ever! I listened to it all the time

As a kid I loved the snails at pleasure beach and carousel probably 2nd favourite

[@ethanbricky]

Where I live in the north it still takes 6/7 hours to get to alton towers

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I also absolutely loved Bubbleworks, two wonderful rides that are no longer with us!

[@madtendo6482]

Hey, i know it sounds razy bu, why not for your next series of "Let's Play Planet Coaster", how about you make a theme park featuring the rides from Alton Towers and Chessington World Of Adventures that were open in the past (I.E. Bubblworks, Ripaw, The Orignal Huanted House and of course Toyland Tours) ? It would be amazing!

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

1994 ... Me and Chris got married , me 26 Chris 23 and we loved this attraction too . The bouncy castles always stuck out for us then sonic . I’d forgotten the theme tune till you hummed it now it’s stuck in my head. It just reminds me of great days at AT , love it . We can remember most of the ride , as for Charlie and the chocolate factory we can’t remember any of it ..... nuff said 🤷🏽‍♂️. Quick question.. was John Wardley involved with this attraction 🤔? 🧱👍🏼

one thing i always ask people when i go to Alton towers is what ever happened to the Sonic in Toyland tours but they dont seem know i have a horrible feeling it was destroyed hopefully someone has it in a private collection looking after him

[@Adar512]

While yall stuck at home, allow me to tellyou about some of the park me and my friend visited in our Eastren Europe trip, so you'll learn about them and maybe go support them: 'Górski Park Równica': Górski Park Równica caught our eye for their Coaster named toboggan run. It is an alpine coaster that was built in 2006 by the German manufacturer Wiegand. It has a modest length of 575 meters. The toboggan run is located in Poland, not far from the border with the Czech Republic. 'Ski area Mosty u Jablunkova': Later in our East Europe trip, we crossed the border from Poland to the Czech Republic and so we ended up in Ski area Mosty u Jablunkova . Here you can find the Bobová Dráha Alpine Coaster (Bobová Dráha is Czech for toboggan run). This alpine coaster built by Wiegand in 2004 has a length of 650 meters. 'Veľká Rača - Oščadnica': From the Czech Republic we crossed the border to Slovakia where we ended up in Veľká Rača - Oščadnica . Here too you can find a toboggan run with the Bobová Dráha . It was built in 2005 by Wiegand. The alpine coaster has a nice length with a track of 1310 meters. Mind you, you should take a chairlift to the alpine coaster touch .

[@BusterMissy1]

I liked the bouncy castles in the ride as they had some side-humour on the trampolines.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was fantastic!

[@genericaccount7422]

I didn't get to ride Toyland Tours much which is a shame, but I do remember the soundtrack. I really like the Sonic part of the Toyland Tours soundtrack, it was pretty cool how they got Sonic's music to mix nicely with the Toyland Tours music and not seem out of place... I'm a bit biased tho coz I've always been a fan of Sonic, I do like how he's a returning theme at Alton Towers... hopefully there's more to come!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I remember the ToyLand Tours and still have the CD which i brought at AT in the 90's of the music from the whole ride (which reminds me of Its A Small World from Disney theme parks) and with the Toyland Tours music it also has the music to the old classic ride ... The Haunted House.

It reminded me of Noddy did Toyland Tours with the elephant and teddy bears especially Tessie Bear as did you and Shawn used to both watch and read Noddy as I did as a kid but my sister didn’t because the character was annoying with his voice and bell. That paddle boat reminds me of OJ from Tugs. The propellers remind me of Budgie’s as did you and Shawn used to watch Budgie the Helicopter as I did as a kid too which he was created by Sarah Fergie?

I think another channel was just talking about this very ride last week I think. Anyway it was about the sonic the hedgehog animatronic and how such bad shape it ended up in. It was restored mostly minus the operating logos as they couldn’t be found. Currently I think sega hq has it somewhere in Japan in a warehouse although exact whereabouts are unknown. The whole video was about video game animatronics I think from Fasspass facts.

Which featured toys solders welcome to guest into the castle.The next scene featured large props of various party foods presented and a band full of stuff animals. Hippos dressed as ballerina and various others sight gags. The ride ride end and guest exit back it was then known of makebalife section of the park.one of the things that the ride remeber for is it theme song which it composed by grand smart a compless comppse composer created the music for various ride for the UK sunch as nemesis a rollor coster at Alton Towers and bubbleworks now a defunct ride at chessington world of adventures.The soundtrack for the ride would be released on CD and sold at the park in the mid 1990s. All tho the ride was popular from its run. Its anost in the mid 2005 that the ride will be closed to make way Charlie and the Chocolate Factory witch will open on the following year. As the name applies this ride will be themed around the classic Roald Doal.Toyland tours is close on June 207h. The ride themed and show building was removed and gutted on the following month being replaced by set pice for the new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory ride the new ride use the same ride system boats a layout as toyland tours did tho the layout will be short. Sadly tho this ride too will close November 8 2005. All tho gone the ride is still remeber to guest who rode it.
