Overview
- Chessington World of Adventures has opened its World of PAW Patrol land after a £15 million build that adds four rides, a play zone, character meet-and-greets, food and a gift shop.
- The lineup features Zuma’s Hovercraft Adventure, billed as the UK’s first ‘Drifter’ ride, plus a mini rollercoaster, a balloon-style tower and a junior flying carpet.
- All four rides set a 90cm minimum height, which stops many younger toddlers from riding even with an adult and narrows the target age range.
- Visitors reported brief technical stoppages on the hovercraft and firetruck rides during early operations, with staff clearing issues before letting guests reboard.
- PAW Patrol-themed hotel rooms that launched last autumn are in high demand and priced from about £600 per night, with perks like early ride time but with first-day park entry often sold separately.
