SharkTums Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 **TENTATIVE** Dates and information about TPR's 2007 Group Trips. After the success of our recent TPR UK Tour where we brought a group of 53 people around to some the best parks in England, Sweden, and Norway, we've had a lot of interest in our 2007 group trips. The following is TENTATIVE information so that some of you who might be interested can start to plan ahead with your 2007 schedule. Full details will be announced towards the end of the month. If you would like to be one of the first to recieve the flyers email robbalvey@themeparkreview.com and let us know! We'll put you on our "TPR 2007 TRIPS" email list. Spain & Italy Add-On - Fly In/Out of Madrid Airport Fly Out Thursday, June 28 Fly Back Friday, July 6 **Italy Add on to Gardaland, Movie Studio Park, and Mirabilandia - Fly Back Monday, July 9 Parks included: Port Aventura, Warner Bros Movie World Madrid, Parque De Attractiones, Terra Mitica and more to be announced later this month.

All trips will be limited to one bus, around 50 people. You MUST be part of the official trip to be included in any park perks that might be offered. So when the official announcement is made, get your deposit in FAST to secure a spot on the trip. Please do not ask us about price, parks, or other details yet as we just don't have enough confirmed. I hope this will at least help you in starting to make your decision if you'd like to go on a trip next summer with us. Also note that all above information COULD CHANGE as we are still in the planning stages. We do not expect the dates or the parks listed above to be altered, but it IS possible! This is just to help you all plan your 2007 theme park year! If you'd like to get an idea what a "TPR Trip" is like, check out our photo Trip Reports from the recent UK Tour Here: http://www.themeparkreview.com/uk2006/ Keep in mind this is not your normal coaster tour. We offer very "personalized" service with a limit of 50 participants per trip. Feel free to post 'general' questions here. Thanks again and we hope to see you on a TPR trip next year! --Robb & Elissa Alvey http://www.themeparkreview.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfie Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Awesome! I'll DEFINITELY meet up with you guys at SFGAm and might just end up coming along for the whole CP etc. trip. I'll see about Spain and Japan as I'd only want to go on one (because my dad would NEVER go on both if not, just one!) I'd love to go on all of them, but that won't happen. hmm... Japan or wingwalker.... well, I know one thing. I'll get to meet you guys next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Awesome! I'll DEFINITELY meet up with you guys at SFGAm and might just end up coming along for the whole CP etc. trip. I know a lot of people have mentioned wanting to meet up with the group, but I do want to make something VERY clear: You MUST be part of the official trip to be included in any park perks that might be offered. This means that, you are more than welcome to come hang out with us for the day at any park, but if you are not part of the official trip, meaning "on the bus", you would not be able to participate in any group ERT, lunches, or any additional perks the park might offer. I just want to make that very clear before people plan to meet up with us and then are upset that they cannot join in on the park perks. But we would LOVE to have anyone come meet up with us for the day! --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted August 3, 2006 Author Share Posted August 3, 2006 Now, I'll chime in and be the evil guardian here... MINORS ON TRIPS: - 18 and over to come on a TPR Trip without a parent or guardian. - Any age is welcome, if a parent or legal guardian is on the trip with them. - 16 & 17 year olds will be allowed on trips ONLY on a case by case basis, personally approved by Robb and Elissa, after talking with the minor and their parent/guardian.

Golfie Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I know... that's why I might be considering going on the whole trip, since I wouldn't have to fly anywhere (I always barf when I have to fly because of nervousness ) It will be more clear as to what I'll be doing in a few days (since my parents are sleeping) Now, I'll chime in and be the evil guardian here... MINORS ON TRIPS: - 18 and over to come on a TPR Trip without a parent or guardian. - Any age is welcome, if a parent or legal guardian is on the trip with them. - 16 & 17 year olds will be allowed on trips ONLY on a case by case basis, personally approved by Robb and Elissa, after talking with the minor and their parent/guardian. But I'm a lonely street child with no home or guardians... but I have enough money to go on TPR trips... what about that, Elissa? Don't worry... I'd need my parents to go on the trip with me or I'd be lonely. By the way, just a quick question: Would everyone meet up at the airport, or how does that end up?

downunder Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I'm keen on the mid-west and maybe Japan, what might swing me will be whether Nagashima Spa Land makes the final itinerary and if SD2000 is still running (if it really does start operating again in the first place).

Louise Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I'm currently rubbing my hands with glee at the idea of meeting more Australians on future trips.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted August 3, 2006 Author Share Posted August 3, 2006 ^No more Aussies for you!!! Save some of them for the rest of us! As for Nagashima, I can't imagine that NOT being part of the tour. Whether SD2000 is open or not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPDave Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 (edited) Hi guys i'm more of a lurker than a poster around here but I am very interested in the Spain and Italy trip. The only thing is i'm 16 at the moment and will be 17 when the trip takes place. Elissa, you said you and Robb have to personally aprove each person who is 16 or 17, is that just to make sure i don't wet the bed and have a fit when i don't get my own way? Anyways, i'd love to be your token english guy on the trip (i'd also love to ride some casters!)

downunder Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Isn't it just like coaster people, my next US tour is in 3 and a bit weeks off (c'mon 26th August), and I'm already thinking about next year. I was just talking to Rabid One about Japan. Lou, you English girls - so friendly, even the unfriendly ones get friendly after a while. I'm on a 2 week trek america camping tour in sept, that's like being on big brother without the cameras - probably be me and 12 English girls, I know there's definitely at least one.

OzCatter Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I was planning on going to Japan on my senior trip anyways, and going to Japan is my dream. Thank you guys also for giving 16 and 17 year olds a chance at this, it's an oppurtunity of a lifetime, plus it would have sucked, since I'd be just like a month and a half away from my 18th birthday on the Japan trip and wouldnt have been able to go.

stealth2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Japan could be a possiblility for me, seen i have a job now. Would love to go to fuji Q, looks one hell of an amazing park! Would anyone else be flying from england? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GURZU Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Weeeeeeeeeey Spain! My country I now am 16 years old, but in July already I will have 17, have to speak with my parents?? They don´t know English, and I do not dominate it lol. I was waiting for a trip as this one, it is necessary to to be the best thing!. If I can I go P.D: But I do not understand a thing... Will every day go away to a park or all in the same day, as a test of resistance? It is that in the e-mail it seems that they are going to be all on July 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devltra2 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Hi guys, Another lurker here. We are very interested in the Midwest USA trip. We had been planning a trip to Ohio to visit Cedar Point and PKI next year anyway. Going as part of a pre arranged trip would make things much easier. We will be coming from Sunny Scotland.

Astat Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I know it's really early to be making any cost estimates, but can I assume the Midwest trip will probably be a bit cheaper than the other 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunder001 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 What a choice to make...do the family and I come on the USA trip, or try to fit it into the two weeks before the Japan trip to tag along with that... I think that we will have to wait till the end of the month when more info is available to make a call. There is always 2008 I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Kotowa Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I would love to come to the Spain trip, i would be able to confirm when there is prices up. As then i can save torwards if need be. As i think around then im going to Donnington. Edit: I'm 18 in October so should be allowed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virdu_ Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Wow! Spain, my country. Next year I'll be 15 years old... but if you come to Terra Mítica or PortAventura, maybe I can go to the park the same day and I'll can mix with the TPR group, or say Hello Next year is going to be a good year for Spanish parks, PortAventura is making a "Wing Walker" coaster, 135km/h , and a nice theming; probably Terra Mítica'll put a good ride, a 4th Dimension(Cinema ) or a B&M Coaster like Daemonen, but probabbly much bigger. You've choosed a nice year! Oh! And don't forget Isla Mágica( In Seville) , it's going to put a Mine Train themed in mayan or aztec culture, it's a nice park, not with big rides, but next year it's going to be its 10th Aniversary, and a TPR visit could be a nice present Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality15 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I know it's really early to be making any cost estimates, but can I assume the Midwest trip will probably be a bit cheaper than the other 2?That's what I'm interested in. If the price is right, I'd like to try the Spain trip, otherwise I'd like to be on the Midwest trip (even though I've got all those credits). Can't wait to hear more, guys. *~* Jon "Get me out of Michigan!" Roost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParkTrips Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 lol more than half the repsondants are "underage"... have fun enforcing your rules woman! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Spain - Yeah, we're going. Midwest - Probably not. Japan - I will likely go. Mary will not. I have to see how some things are scheduled for that time of the year, though. For those that might be thinking about going on one of these trips, all I can tell you is GO! You will never, ever, find a better organized coaster trip out there. dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I'm interested in the Midwest trip. Although a question, what if you're 17 right now, do you HAVE to get a form signed? Because by the time the trip comes around, I will be 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
