sReview_RatingImg rating on 09/10/2008 by theo (119 reviews)

I have been coming here every year since I can remember and I have always really enjoyed it here.
My dad use to bring me when I was young and now I bring my kids here who also enjoy it as much as I still do.
Im a big fan of thrill rides and chessington has many.
Chessington also has a fantastic zoo which is great fun for all the family
All facilities here are to the highest standards always very very clean I have never had to complain about anything here.
Staff are all very friendly too so you are always sure to have a very enjoyable day.

This park is excellent for all of the family. A lot of the rides are suitable for children and with the zoo that is also in the park, it makes it an excellent day out for everyone. Even if you have very young children they may enjoy going to see the animals and seeing the various displays they have during the day (such as feeding the seals). The price to get into Chessington isnt cheap, especially if you are taking a whole family. It is an expensive day out, however as a one off it is great for the whole family.

Great for the little ones

The thing that makes Chessington World Of Adventures special is that the majority of rides are suitable for the younger visitor, which is not the case in lots of the other UK parks. The parking is free which is also another nice touch and access via the M25 is straightforward. If you live local to the park then purchasing an annual pass is well worth the expense as after 2 visits it will have paid for itself. The newly opened Sealife Center within the park is a great addition and is included in the entry fee. I find the best times to visit are off peak as the queues can sometimes exceed an hour on busier days. I also find that it's worth eating a late lunch to avoid the queues as places such as the Burger King Restaurant and The Pizza Hut do get really busy at around midday. The zoo area is also worth exploring and the Sealion and Penguin shows are also great fun.

Went here for my daughters 2nd birthday, and is a great little theme park, perfect for kiddies!

theres lots to do and see, with the zoo too theres an added bonus!... However on our visit lots of the rides were shut (there was a power cut so un avoidable really, but did put a bit of a damper on things.

They also have the sealife centre exhibit (in a tent ?) which was good fun too wander around.

All in all good value for the ticket price - but another 50p in the meter wouldn't hurt!

This is a fab theme park. I would say its more suited for families with children as the rides are more tame than say Alton Towers. Saying that though, i throughly enjoyed the rides it was like being a child again. As with other theme parks, the rides are set out in different lands which you can easily walk from one to another. There are plently of food and drink places, plus little stalls and booths as you walk around. We went over the last easter holiday and got there before it opened, so we were near the front when the park opened. The fun part is running to get to the rides!

The only bits I like about this theme park is the Rollercoasters especially Dragon's Fury, Vampire and Rattlesnake! They are great fun when I went around with my mates. . . I am a huge fan of Rollercoaster and still managed to get through many rides of each Rollercoaster there! The food/drinks there is damn good especially the £5 unlimited refils drink deal! I'd say this is not the best themepark but may be brilliant for young kids. Its all good to have something for the little ones to experience. I have a cool video of the Rattlesnake Rollercoaster- http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=fBBwY_Uy1W4

Definatly not the best theme park I've been to, but because of it being less popular you don't have to wait as long! as each main ride was quite spread out from the other so would have to walk for agggess! I did thoroughly enjoy the swing ride though! Also i met Dora the Explorer here... what more could you want?

Chessington is aimed at a younger age group than Thorpe Park, which is also close by. The rides are smaller, although there are a couple of more intense rides. The park is generally well run, although things do breakdown from time to time. The staff are generally friendly, and efficient. Ticket prices are fairly expensive, but this is the case with all theme parks! Food and similar inside the park is also expensive. There is also a small zoo and aqarium in the park. a good park for the younger or the less intense!
