One option would be to take a National Express Coach service from Manchester Coach Station to Stoke-on-Trent (Hanley Bus Station). As Alton Towers opens at 10am, you could take the 8am serive arriving at Hanley at 9:15. From there, there are regular First Bus service to Alton Towers, all taking under 1 hour. An alternative would be to take the train from Manchester to Stoke-on-Trent railway station which would be quicker, however you would then have to get a bus from the railway station to Hanley Bus Station and then the bus to Alton Towers. I have attached a link below to the Alton Towers page on 'How to find us'. In addition, I have attached a link to National Express as it is cheaper to book the coach tickets in advance.

It is called "Alton Towers" because the Alton Towers Resort has "Towers" which I think were built in 1980 when the Resort was first opened and the "Alton" Towers Resort is located in Alton, Stoke-on-Trent.
