I think the reason as to why chessington has allowed more visitors into the theme park compare to Thorpe and Alton is because they’re got a lot more rides then the other theme parks. However it is understandable that they should of really opened some of the rides earlier. Great vlog Shawn and thank you for vlogging some of my favourite theme parks in the uk to give me an idea of how they’re functioning and running. Great vlog stay safe 👍👍
I was there today, those coasters may be family rides but they felt so much more intense because I haven’t been on anything in so long. It’s unfortunate that Kobra was closed all day but it’s understandable and I still had a great time 😁 There was also a bay loader on the rides today as well
While I’ve been on maternity leave I stumbled across your channel. You’ve kept me entertained through many sleepless nights. Really like your New York blogs on adventure Shaun too. Keep up the good work!
Another great vlog! After visiting Busch Tampa, Kentucky Kingdom, and Holiday world and observing different guidelines I would say things that are working well are virtual queues, getting rid of fast track, reservation requirements, temp checks, social distancing parties on rides, capping attendance, and social distancing from other parties on paths and at restaurants... Things that I think have not worked well have been full mask requirements all day, social distancing attempts in queues, closing most eateries, and full social distancing on rides and coasters even parties.
Wow. What's louder, a Maurer spinning coaster lift hill or Big Thunder Mountain lift hills 😂 all jokes aside, I love the little "pshew" noises Maurer spinners make 😂😂😂
The thing I absolutely love about chessington is that they have different themes within the park like wild asia and land of the tiger. I still love thorpe park and alton towers , but they only have ride themes not land themes.
I went there about 5 months ago as well. it was much better than I thought! the social distancing was good considering the situation, everyone had masks on and I was able to go on a decent number of the rides!
I love this channel you know I think it’s amazing what you do and I can obviously see that you enjoy it so don’t stop what your doing and please release a video of chessington on Halloween
Really like all your Vlogs over the past couple of days and is really informative of what the Parks are like at the minute. Vampire is a Cool Ride. Just have to Play Planet Coaster until i can visit the Parks
Love watching these vlogs again makes me so happy! Will you be visiting Flamingo land and giving an update on their rides and what they've done due to covid this year?
Really want to go to Chessington, vampire is one of the coasters I really want to do! Edit: I went and did it! It’s a great coaster, the swinging sensation is incredible!
I went to Weston pier last Sunday. You should go back it has changed since you went there. I am going to west midland safari park on Friday. I haven’t been to Chessington In ages. This Is A Really Good Vid
Hi Shawn will yourself and Charlotte be at Chessington World Of Adventures, when it opens for the 2021 season in 9 days time. I will not be at the Park but will definitely watch vlogs and follow news updates from the first day of the 2021 season. I wish Chessington and all other Theme Parks a great 2021 season!!
Love all the snippets of info you don't hear from other channels. Never been to or knew they had a spinball style coaster. Would be awesome to see a video about twinned rides..... Or just rides that found a new home (black hole, thunder looper etc). Didn't flamingo land have an identical corkscrew to alton towers at some point? Would love to know where.....if anywhere you'd have to go to ride that now. As much as I adore 13. Fantastic work as always, when I head back into the parks it'll be in large down to these videos, enjoy the Rd trip.
I don't know why Chessy is closing at 4pm for the rest of the season (according to their website) but I reckon it might be something to do with the fact that there's a Covid-19 testing station there, and they need to be able to operate that while the car park isn't full of cars, so that might be why they're closing early.
Great Video, Chessington has come a long way from a zoo and the Magic carpet ride from the 80s. We are all merlin pass holders and can’t wait to go again. Is it possible to maybe do a bit more about the food on offer at not just this park but others you visit and cost at recording etc?We normally have pizza pasta but that closed at the moment with just take away. Keep up the good good work and next time we see hello 👋 to you in the park say hello back! My son and daughter Devastated you never said a lie when I saw you last year at Legoland and Thorpe Park. All the best
I'm going their tomorow this has helped in what I should be expecting They don't let to many people in its lots of people around popular rides my favourite is vampire I go on it loads
They could just clean the rows that aren't being used then flip the skip and clean the other rows so they still get a runthrough before someone rides on them.
I must say that Ik this isn’t the Alton towers vlog but when in his Alton towers vlog it seemed as Alton towers was going to be very busy and different , but we went today and the whole day felt really fun and pretty much normal , queues where going faster Aswell 😊
HI there, thanks for taking us to all the parks with the new procedures now in place .... but don't know if anybody has asked this question or you have talked about this but can you still collect the map guides when you arrive at the parks, Alton Towers, etc. as i collect theme park map guides.
I got some memories of this place my mum told me we was going on a car trip then I went to sleep woke up AT CHESSINGTON. Ps. Can u please make a new chessington vid
Nice to see how the Parks are on top of the social distancing. Is it just me but every time i see the Gruffalo, I think of the Bubble works. I loved that ride, don't get me wrong its still is but for me the Bubble works and I am so glad that they kept the water fountains. Nice Vlog Shawn
Been a few years since I went there, I really want to go back soon, so thanks for this video showing us everything that's been put in place to keep the park safe and clean!
I read in John Wardley's autobiography that he helped with the retheming of Chessington. And that's on top of helping with the rides at Alton Towers. He also created the animatronic Charlie Plucket so the vampire playing the organ might also have something to do with him.
These merlin parks really need to review their opening hours. It's fine with Blackpool because the park has short queues, but when the average wait time is as long as it is at these Merlin Parks they need to stop this charge as much as we can and open for as little time as we can get away with policy. I'll travel to Alton Towers but going all the way down to London for 6 hours opening just puts me off.
I agree. They charge an absolute rip off for how long you queue. I went to Alton towers last year and got on 4 rides. Average wait time was an hour and a half. We queued for 2 hours for smiler... Never used to be that bad when I was younger. It's definitely gotten worse and the prices have gone up and up
@@boycie18 I've definitely noticed it getting worse over the years. Parks in USA might be slightly more expensive but they have more attractions and are open for over 10 hours in most places. Its just not value for money in the UK.
Never realised how well themed Vampire's station is. That vampire animatronic is awesome.
It’s still a shame they got rid of the bubbleworks, that was my childhood 😔
I do still miss Bubbleworks however I do enjoy a the Gruffalo!
Where are the fountains
Well done on 228k subs
@@expeditioned2821 The fountains are still there.
Man bubble works was the bomb. It wasn't quite as good when it was imperial lather...
I cannot wait to go back there, I’ve been sitting at home watching all of the theme park videos and I’m ready to go on some rides 😂
Let’s hope you can visit soon!
Brooke I’m going chessington next week
@@charlenewilks3617 hope you have fun!
What's amazing is that Shaun has the lungs to sound like Shawn without a facemask on. Just scroll down, you can't tell!
It’s great to watch all of these vlogs!
Thank you for watching! It was great to visit 4 theme parks back to back!
Theme Park Worldwide I hope you enjoyed them! I went to Thorpe Park on the 4th and my home park Crealy on the 6th, both for opening days. 👍👍👍🎢🎢🎢
I've seen so many during quarantine, its unbelievable
@@alunscaresme1566 Same, I started on the Orlando 2014 trip and reached the Orlando trip over the 2016/17 New year 😂
You're really making me want to a theme park haha 😄
i’m so lucky that i’m going to thorpe park twice in the next month!! i’m really grateful for it, i hope you get to one soon :)
BEHAVE YOUR SELF. WANTING TO A THEME PARK NAUGHTY NAUGHTY I WILL BE KEEPING MY EYE 👁ON U SO WILL SECURITY.
@@moosevanslooten1812 ?
Imagine someone’s mask falling off mid-ride! They would have to be escorted at vampire’s second lift! 😂😂
I miss this park, haven’t been ages. Love The Vampire 🧛♂️

Loving all the new theme park vlogs this week. Good to see you guys back out at the parks again.
Thank you!
Great Vlog...You are wasted on CZcams my friend.. The way you speak and present you should be on TV.. 👍
Thank you so much!
As Andy coaster crazy says he's on the telly already lol
@@kkrispy2009P ahahaha. You're on telly now
I think it would be perfect if they added a cheeta launch coaster in wild asia
I DO KNOW CHEETA HUNT AT BUSH GARDENS TAPMA EXISTS
Great vlog as usual Shawn, really hoping to get back to Chessington in August 🤞🏻
Thanks Lewis, have a great trip
I was there today, those coasters may be family rides but they felt so much more intense because I haven’t been on anything in so long. It’s unfortunate that Kobra was closed all day but it’s understandable and I still had a great time 😁
There was also a bay loader on the rides today as well
Thanks for sharing! I imagine there’s technical issues with Kobra at the moment then!
I LOVE THE VAMPIRE SO MUCHHH
lockdown 3.0.... time to binge watch 😂
Enjoy!
I’m hoping to go soon I’m trying to convince my mum 😂
Also I wouldn’t feel bad about taking up a rattlesnake train to yourself, you have every right to ride 🙂
Me: noticing I've been there in July too
Also me: Looking for me and my fam
Can't wait to go back to chessington!
Same

Have a great time!

Thank you so much
I went to chessingtons on Monday! We actually managed to get on a few of their rides, it didn't take too long
I’m glad you had a good time
Theme Park Worldwide your so nice 👍
how long would you say each queue was

Alton Towers and Thorpe Park do have land themes however not as strong as Chessington!
I'm planned to be there the week of the World Rollercoaster Day, so excited
☹️

Good to hear that you had a good time
I was here the same time as you!
Its great to see the vlog from my local park. Its great to see Tomb Blaster has has a refurb.
My home park! Vampire is an amazing coaster, hope we don’t loose it in the near future with the mass wipeout of arrow rides.
Same
It sure is a fantastic tide and we hope the park continue to maintain and look after it for the foreseeable future
I love this channel you know I think it’s amazing what you do and I can obviously see that you enjoy it so don’t stop what your doing and please release a video of chessington on Halloween
Thank you! We’ll be visiting Halloween at Chessington in the coming weeks!
Love this park!
I’ve never clicked so fast in my life
Thanks for watching! We hope you’ve enjoyed our 4 day back to back theme park vlogs!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide can you go legoland next please
@@ThemeParkWorldwide will u go legoland pleaseeeee
Vampire is incredible! My 10th favourite coaster! 10/10! A classic!
It sure is a great ride!
I love you vids because I love theme parks
Who else has seen the paper in the tomb blaster queue with the Easter eggs
I've never noticed. Rode it on opening day 2020.
Attraction Swirl watch my new vlog and you’ll see it when I’m qeueing in the tomb blaster queue!
Great vlog, as always Shawn. Wow, 4 parks, in 4 days. Looking forward to the road trip.
Thank you! Up next, Europe road trip!
Got my tickets booked for rollercoaster day weekend, hoping to marathon Vampire on day 2 for my tpww inspired coaster day challenge!
Have a great time!
Really like all your Vlogs over the past couple of days and is really informative of what the Parks are like at the minute. Vampire is a Cool Ride. Just have to Play Planet Coaster until i can visit the Parks
Thank you Paul, I wanted to keep people updated with the procedures in place across the parks
Today I went to THORPE PARK!
Tmr you should do Legoland cuz then you have all Merlin parks done
what about shrek world
Love the vampire... I do miss the old cars though. Wish they would bring them back!!
I also miss them very much!
Just came just in time so I can decide to go or not
But defo going now!
Thanks for your amazing detailed videos!
I love how the end is back on zufari. If you go not so regularly to the park and you drive straight through it's a little sad.
Love watching these vlogs again makes me so happy! Will you be visiting Flamingo land and giving an update on their rides and what they've done due to covid this year?
We will be in the coming months
I’m excited to go to chessington next time!
4 Big hitter Vlogs - 4 days in a row. Spoiling us and happy for it!
Thank you!
For fast track one shots, do you know if you can only ride it once with fast track or can you keep using it the same day on the same ride
Really want to go to Chessington, vampire is one of the coasters I really want to do!
Edit: I went and did it! It’s a great coaster, the swinging sensation is incredible!
It’s a great coaster!
I went to Weston pier last Sunday. You should go back it has changed since you went there. I am going to west midland safari park on Friday. I haven’t been to Chessington In ages. This Is A Really Good Vid
We’ll definitely be planning a visit
So looking forward to this video,
I'm hoping to get into some parks after the week holiday! Do love a good ride on the Vampire!
Went there yesterday, it was great to get back on vampire. I thought dragons fury was running incredibly.
It was indeed
Now That's Great News. I've Might Go To Chessington World Of Adventures Theme Park One Day. Thanks Theme Park Worldwide Mate. X
Thanks Luke
Hi Shawn will yourself and Charlotte be at Chessington World Of Adventures, when it opens for the 2021 season in 9 days time. I will not be at the Park but will definitely watch vlogs and follow news updates from the first day of the 2021 season. I wish Chessington and all other Theme Parks a great 2021 season!!
We’ll be at the park within the first few days of operation for this year!

Can't wait to go back to all the theme parks in uk
All of my year six are coming there by May I’m really happy to come there
We will be meeting you by the 27th of May
Amazing vid again! Chessington is everyone’s childhood park! They do need a major rollercoaster with a new area to give it that boost!
Thank you Andy
