Best Chessington World of Adventures deals: The cheapest ticket offers and discounts
With over 40 rides, a zoo, aquarium and Jumanji world, Chessington World of Adventures is a fun-filled — but potentially expensive — day out. Here's top deals, 2-for-1 offers, and discount vouchers for this family attraction
Chessington World of Adventures is a theme park located 30 minutes outside London between the towns of Epsom and Weybridge. The zoo has been on this site for over 90 years, and the main theme park has been open since the 1980s. Today, the park is home to over 40 rollercoasters and water rides, a zoo with over 1,000 animals, and a SEA LIFE Aquarium, so there's plenty to see and do for all ages.
In 2023, the first ever World of Jumanji opened at Chessington, including the world’s only Jumanji rollercoaster – Mandrill Mayhem. Other well-known rides at the park include Vampire, Rattlesnake, Dragon's Fury and Tiger Rock.
Younger visitors will enjoy seeing some of their favourite book characters come to life on the Gruffalo River Ride Adventure, Room on the Broom magical journey and Elmer's Flying Jumbos as well as a huge soft play area, adventure trail and high ropes course.
Simply turning up on the day at the gates to enjoy all these attractions can make a huge dent in your bank balance though and that's before you even consider an overnight stay in one of the hotels, fast track passes, souvenirs and photos from the rides. To help you get tickets and overnight stays for a bargain price, we've put together a definitive guide of the latest Chessington deals and offers.
