    We were able to get right into the aquarium with no queue. It was relaxing watching the turtles and other varieties of fish in the big tank. The sharks and sting rays were also amazing to watch. The jellies and seahorse exhibits were awesome.

    The amazing display of marine species made an awe provoking experience for my nine months old son. We had a pushchair that we were allowed to carry and the staff were eager to help by giving directions and proving knowledgeable commentaries. Ee are grateful for such a memorable family day out.

    Was avery quiet day in the Zoo as there was a tube strike on, but we were fortunate enough to get there by using DLR and overland trains and a bit of walking. Years since I was last at the Zoo, a pleasant day, like all of these places food and drink was pricey!

    Well worth £35. We saw the tiger prowling and eating, the lions sunbathing, the rainforest experience was excellent with monkeys overhead, enjoyed penguins and lemurs being fed, the hippo swimming, giraffes being put to bed. The new African hunting dogs were active, and the gorillas were playful. Listened to a talk on capybaras. The volunteers were brilliant, with help when we got lost. Able to exit without going through the gift shop. Advice would be to find out times of activities with the different animals and focus on a few star items, and gently take in the rest, especially on a hot day.

    Chessington World of Adventures – A Fun-Filled Family Day Out! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an amazing time at Chessington World of Adventures! The park offers the perfect mix of thrilling rides, animal encounters, and family-friendly attractions. The Dragon’s Fury and Vampire roller coasters were big hits with the older kids, while the Gruffalo River Ride and Zufari: Ride into Africa were fantastic for younger ones. The zoo and sea life areas were well-maintained, and we loved seeing the tigers, gorillas, and penguins up close. The staff were friendly and helpful, making the experience even more enjoyable. The only minor downside was some queues being a bit long, but the FastTrack options are worth considering if you want to maximize your time. One suggestion for improvement: extending summer closing times to 8:00 PM would be fantastic! More time in the evening would allow families to enjoy the park with shorter queues and cooler weather, making the visit even more enjoyable. Despite some peak-time queues, the FastTrack options helped, and overall, it was great value for money. A must-visit for families—we’ll definitely be back! 🎢🐯🌞

    My daughter is a bit older now I think she really appreciate getting more rides now eventhough she's below 90cm and just so much things to do and thank god for the aquarium when it was raining, it was definitely saved our time. I'm getting soaked um, the food was pricey, but just a tip. Just bring your own snack or food. Overall great experience
