Dickens World offers a totally different day out.

You can get splashed on the Great Expectations dark boat ride (so long as you're over 1m tall), learn some of the ghost stories in "The Haunted Man", even play snakes and ladders in our Victorian School room - just watch out for the headmaster!

Peggottys boathouse is a 4D cinema where you can discover which countries Charles Dickens travelled to to tell his stories, and the Britannia Theatre introduces you to some of his characters. If you're under 1.45m tall, you can play in Fagins Den - a soft play area especially for our younger visitors.
