The Gruffalo River Ride Adventure is a super fun water ride that opened in March 2017. You can find it at Chessington World of Adventures Resort in Greater London, England. This exciting ride was created by Merlin Entertainments.
The ride takes you on a journey through the world of The Gruffalo. It uses cool digital screens and projections to bring the story to life. You'll even see clips from the 2009 animated Gruffalo film!
What Happens on The Gruffalo River Ride?
When you get to the ride, you'll enter a special waiting area. It's decorated with fake trees and leaves hanging from the ceiling. This makes you feel like you're already in the Gruffalo's forest!
Your Journey Through the Story
As your boat floats along, you'll see different parts of the Gruffalo story. The ride uses big screens, special lights, and animations to show you what's happening. It's like stepping right into the book!
The Exciting Ending
Near the end of your adventure, your boat will go down a small ramp. This leads you into the final scene. Don't forget to smile, because a picture is taken of you as you drop down! The ride finishes with two sets of pretty fountains, just like the ride that was here before.
