199 Questions
Is there a McDonald's at thorpe park?
Nope, there are 2 Burger Kings, a KFC, a Pizza Hut Buffet, and numerous other smaller restraunts and snack bars, all relatively well priced. One tip would be to avoid the food stands at peak times in the summer as they do get extremely hectic!
Unfortuantely it is not. You can find the Roller Coaster Saw:The Ride and the ScareMaze Saw:Alive at Thorpe Park in Surrey.
What is the story behind swarm ride at Thorpe park?
There was a plane flying over a country area in England, when a form of alien/monster interferes with the technology in the area. The plane then crashes into a bill board and lands in a church. Pieces of plane are scattered everywhere. The actual ride is meant to seem like a plane crash but if you look at the front of the ride you will see an alien like face at the front. Emergency trucks are everywhere but they are all destroyed. TVs have been set up around the que and it explains most of the story through the news. Listen carefully and you should be able to work it out.
How fast is the swarm at thorpe park?
The SWARM is the third fastest ride in the park, with a top speed of 57mph

How does thorpe park meet customer needs?
Thorpe park is focused on young adults, young teenagers. You will see there also disabled people, groups of students and foreign people. You can purchase priority ticket; they make special dishes on request at some of the eating places. They don't present that they would have someone who speaks in foreign language, because they are focused on people who speak in English, all information in their website and in the park is in English. There is some staff who speak sign language but only because they speak in sign at home, not because they would be trained for the job. They do meet every unstated need e.g. toilets, baby changing facilities and disabled toilets, eating and drinking places, first aid, car park and security. They also try to meet stated needs like prices- they have displayed them on their website and also at the Thorpe Park when you buy tickets, the prices at eating places, shops and attractions are also displayed so everyone can see. Opening times also are on their website and at the park, highchairs for the babies. If you are older and you suddenly have a stroke, medical help will be provided for you. They help you to save up your money when you book tickets online, you can save up to 40% if you book 7 days in advance, also if you buy more than one ticket it will be cheaper. So as you can see Thorpe Park meets stated and unstated needs.

How big is thorpe park stealth?
Stealth reaches a massive 205 feet (62.5 metres) in height and reaches an exhilarating 84 miles per hour (135 kilometres per hour) in speed. It also has a G-force of 4.5 and is 1,640 feet (500 metres) in length. The entire rde lasts only 24 seconds but it is still worth the wait. I would suggest at first not going in the front and then going in the front you will feel the big difference between them.
