It is a good ride. It has lots of airtime and comfortable seats. However, it is a bit bumpy. Not at all rough, but shaky. And the straight sections after the first drop and after one of the hills on the way back were kind of strange and made the ride that way. I prefer Nitro because it has no straight sections and is somewhat smoother.

Sweet ride! Though I think Nitro is better, faster, scarier.

I rode this when I was nine. I didn’t realize it was a hyper coaster. I just wanted to get on. I loved it.

I have ridden Apollo’s Chariot, I think it is BG’s best ride, however Griffon is smoother.

My first coaster too! Went to BGE in August and rode Apollos Chariot, but then chickened out on the others… shame on me! Going back in a week to ride all 4. Oh, and Coaster Critic, this website has been a big help for me getting interested in roller coasters, and helping get over my fear, so thank you

Apollo’s Chariot is a 4 out of 5. I’ve started adding the thrill scale just since I created. I haven’t gone back to my older reviews like this one add the scale, but ask and ye shall receive. I’ve added it above.

I noticed your thrill scale and have most of the coaster’s i’m interested in rated.. But not this one? Would you consider this one a level 3 thrill or a level 4 intense ride? Thanks! Great review.

Loops to me are okay. I like large drops more then loops.. Give me more of a thrill.. I shall report back after I ride Alpie.

They’re completely different rides. So I’m not sure. If you like loops then you may like Alpengeist. Let us know what you think after you ride it.
