Rattlesnake
fantastic rides!!!!!!!!!!

My favourite rides were the Rattlesnake, Rameses Revenge, Dragon Falls, Dragon's Fury,Vampire and Kobra. The Rattlesnake was amazing, it had lot's of sharp turns that whizzed you round. My mum was sitting next to me and when we went round a corner she squished me! We stayed in the hotel which had lovely cooked breakfast, and when we looked out the window we saw ostriches and Zebras. The bedrooms were lovely and cosy. The holiday was exciting and you got to try new things everyday!

Hilariousss

Rattlesnake was amazing. Twists and turns followed by drops that make you feel weightless. Definitely worth the wait. Went on it 5 times!!!

Rattlesnake
Best ride at Chessington.

I loved it! When you go down the first drop, it feels like your tummy stays in the air for a while! The minute I got off that ride, I queued back up again! Definitely recommend this ride to all who enter Chessington! :)

Runaway Train
Brilliant!

The Runaway Train is the rollercoaster for anyone. It's fun, exciting and a real screamer. So when YOU go to Chessington, make sure you go on the Runaway Train first thing! The height restiction singles out no-one, meaning everyone can share their experience with their friends.

Rattlesnake
Rattlesnake briliant make!

I love Rattlesnake! 1 of the best rides! Rattlesnake is suitable for anyone over 1.4 and it is a brilliant ride for a first roller coaster. I remember my first time on Rattlesnake and yesterday I experienced my first ever rides on stealth and nemesis inferno!!! :)
