chickenbowl 1 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Trust us. Please. My post wasn't meant to discredit your planning by any means, I was just trying to give some feedback on the destinations. I loved New Hotness and this looks like 2013's equivalent, there's literally SO many top notch coasters and parks, I'd love to do this trip! Sorry for coming off as rude.

sspaz1000 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I'm looking into my third trip as well. And if anything, LeviaTHON sealed the deal that R&E know what they are doing. I mean how many times has a park just closed cause of rain? Not many if at all, and in not even an hour there was a back up plan in place. I mean I was looking at Texas/Midwest, but length of trip might be a deal breaker for me, but that just means I pick from the variety of other trips out there (ie Mexico or Mini UK if they get offered). But if there's a bash on the mid-west trip, I'm pretty sure I'd do that. Link to post Share on other sites
deguy123 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I really like the MidWest Trip but with vacation time (Plus with my ex-wife having to "watch" my daughter for LeviaTHON being such a big deal) I'm thinking Mexico could be the one! All the trips sound great and I'm really hoping to do another next year. Anyone who hasn't been on a trip please trust them, they know what they are doing Link to post Share on other sites
SuperShawn 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 As with every year, the trips all look outstanding with great park line ups. It will be extremely hard to choose what my 4th TPR trip will be, Mexico or Mini UK look great, but to ride all 3 Rocky Mt. coaster creations and end with some Maverick might win out. For those who doubt what Robb and Elissa offer, the amount of repeat participants should be a big flashing sign that they know what they are doing. Each time something comes up they have always had a back up plan and asked for input as well, so trust them, sign up, and enjoy one heck of a fun vacation. Link to post Share on other sites
Intaman 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 My proverbial "wheels are turning" for either the Texas/Midwest Tour or the West Coast Tour. TPR tours seem like a great time. That said, I will patiently await for the trip announcements. Since this will be my first TPR tour, I am especially looking forward to the experience. I wished that I had the time available to join the New Hotness Tour this past summer. Link to post Share on other sites

Jerrykoala2112 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Very interested in the Mexico trip as well as the Taiwan trip (Gravity Max is my biggest draw!) and Japan I'll save for another year. You guys always manage to impress me with the trips that are planned every year Link to post Share on other sites
ahecht 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Any thoughts of having a Schlitterbahn add-on before the Midwest/Texas trip? Link to post Share on other sites
disneyfan1313 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 All the trips sound AMAZING but I really have my heart set on Mexico! After experiencing the amazing level of detail and care that Robb and Elissa put into these trips there is no other way that I would visit Mexico. Link to post Share on other sites
Jakizle 11 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 All the trips sound AMAZING but I really have my heart set on Mexico! After experiencing the amazing level of detail and care that Robb and Elissa put into these trips there is no other way that I would visit Mexico. Same exact thought here! Also dieing to get on Texas/Midwest...Magic Springs is a huge draw for me, plus the 3 Rocky Mountain coasters, more museum, and experiencing Cedar Point with fast lane has got me sold. They pick the parks for a reason guys 6 trips in the bag and can't wait for more, Robb and Elissa are the ultimate trip makers. Just decide what options you are interested and they will make it the best trip ever! Link to post Share on other sites
redmenace8 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 TPR is known for the trips you guys put together, respected everywhere for the quality, care and effort put into making them so memorable and fun. You and Elissa have proven beyond any doubt you know exactly how to take care of your customer base. Anyone who has been on a trip or read a trip report from you guys or anyone else can see in your faces exactly how much you care about making every moment worth more than every penny. I get frustrated planning a trip to Oklahoma, thinking about the work involved here makes my head spin. Because of this, It doesn't really matter to me what trips you end up doing, if I ever get the opportunity to go on one again, I know it will be amazing. It might not be the most useful thing to hear, since you guys are trying to figure out the schedule for next year, but it is the truth. I like the mix of traditional and the possibilities of different, unexpected choices, which TPR makes certain to provide every year. Link to post Share on other sites
vkc 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 2. There are two Mitsui Greenlands. One on the Southern Island and one on the Northern Island. This trip would do the one up in Hokkaido. I don't think we're welcome back at the Southern one after Steve and TP Dave left half of their skin on the alpine slide. Haha - I'll never forget those alpine slides and the skin "incident". The Japan trip for next year sounds good. Link to post Share on other sites
mattnz 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 A few of you have mentioned Holiday World and Worlds of Fun not being on the trip. It's important to remember though that we were just at those two parks in 2010 and we have NEVER featured Magic Springs on a TPR Tour. Personally, I love visiting some of the smaller parks, and Magic Springs is one of those parks a lot of us would probably not visit without TPR. I really appreciate parks like this being on the itinerary - kind of reminds me of Adventureland on Midwest 2010, which I absolutely loved (just as much as Holiday World, as it happens!). On another note, yay for a TPR return to Texas! Link to post Share on other sites
Erik_73 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 The Mexico trip in combination with a 7 day beach holiday in the yucatan area sounds like a perfect break for me. Link to post Share on other sites
Moose 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Damn, all these trips sound amazing but since your first TPR trip there, I have always had my heart set on Japan. Hopefully it's in the cards for next year. I may try to sneak a second one in. Link to post Share on other sites
SharkTums 383 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Any thoughts of having a Schlitterbahn add-on before the Midwest/Texas trip? Yes...it will most likely be an early arrival day option. Link to post Share on other sites
FreeFaller 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 What is meant by ''private buy out of city museum'' at the Texas/Midwest Tour? Link to post Share on other sites
Erik Johnson 7 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 The City Museum is a super crazy, unique, as well as fun museum in the heart of St. Louis. It basically is a large jungle gym for adults. TPR rents out the place during one of the tour dates. Link to post Share on other sites
Moose 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 ^^It was one of the most memorable stops of any of my 8 TPR trips. It was an absolute blast even though it was hotter than the surface of the sun the day we were there. Link to post Share on other sites
FreeFaller 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Thanks for the information Hopefully the tour will happen Link to post Share on other sites
Erik Johnson 7 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 The Mini-UK tour looks like the perfect trip for me next year. I would really love to do Japan or return to Taiwan in the future, but I think those will have to wait another time. Just to watch everyone ride Gravity Max in Taiwan would be worth the price of the trip. Link to post Share on other sites
Hilltopper39 54 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I didn't fill out the survey because with a newborn on the way I know there is no way I could even consider a trip fro next year but the Midwest/Cedar Point new Hotness trip sounds amazing, I would love to hit those parks with TPR. Hope there are some great Bashes being planned for next year as well, I didn't make it to any this year but had a great time in 2011, and would love to try again in 2013.

alilstronger 1 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I do not understand why people are dissing the line up of parks on any trip. R&E know what they are doing. I have been on two (North East and Leviathan) trips and I will continue to travel with them in the future. I trust them and I trust they will provide an amazing time EVERY time. EVERY detail is planned out to the extreme. Even when a park closed on us for "rain" they had a back up plan ready in less than an hour. They seem to make even the smallest parks amazing! I love when Robb gets everyone pumped during ERT times. Some of them have been really epic! Anyway.. back to why this thread was started. Now that I look at the trips again I am thinking Mexico or Mid West. I will be at my company 5 years next year so I get a extra week of vacation to play with so that is definitely not an issue. it is just the money but we'll see, anything is possible.

There have been times where I feel like I'm wasting my energy. But glad to know it's appreciated by some! Link to post Share on other sites
Moose 0 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 ^After recently experiencing nonTPR ERT, it really does add to the experience. While it was still fun, it was no way near the experience with TPR! Link to post Share on other sites
