About Thorpe Park + Hampton Court Palace Ticket
Thorpe Park Resort is one of the UK's premier thrill destinations — a thrill-focused theme park set on an island in Surrey, off the M25 near Chertsey, aimed at older teenagers and adults with over 30 rides. The lineup of world-class coasters covers every dimension of thrill-seeking. Stealth — the UK's fastest roller coaster — launches riders from 0 to 80 mph in less than two seconds, shooting straight up a 205-foot tower before plunging back down. THE SWARM takes riders through a post-apocalyptic world as a wing coaster, positioning riders on either side of the track for a genuine sensation of flying through chaos at 55 mph. SAW — The Ride delivers a 100-foot vertical drop beyond the vertical — the first beyond-vertical roller coaster in the UK — while Tidal Wave offers an 85-foot plunge for visitors who want to get thoroughly soaked. Colossus, Nemesis Inferno, and Rush add further variety across the full day, and family-friendly rides including Flying Fish and Quantum make the park work for mixed-age groups.
Hampton Court Palace — just 15 minutes from Thorpe Park by car — is one of England's most impressive and most historically significant royal palaces. Begun by Cardinal Wolsey in 1515 and dramatically expanded by Henry VIII from 1529, it served as the principal royal residence through Tudor and Stuart times before Christopher Wren added the baroque King's Apartments in the late 17th century. The Tudor Kitchens are the largest surviving Tudor kitchens in the world — capable of feeding 600 people twice a day — and the Great Hall where Henry VIII's court gathered for feasts is the most spectacular single room in the palace. The Chapel Royal with its extraordinary blue and gold star-studded ceiling was built between 1535 and 1540 and is one of the finest Tudor ecclesiastical interiors in England. The Hampton Court Maze — planted in the late 17th century and covering approximately a third of an acre — is one of the oldest and most celebrated hedge mazes in the world, requiring approximately 20 minutes to complete for first-time visitors who make all the wrong turns. The 60 acres of gardens include the Great Vine planted in 1768 — the largest grapevine in the world, still producing approximately 700 pounds of Black Hamburg grapes annually — and the beautifully maintained baroque formal gardens running down to the Thames.

Insiders' Tips
Arrive at Thorpe Park at opening time and head straight to Stealth, THE SWARM, and SAW — The Ride — queue times at these three coasters are shortest in the first 90 minutes before midday crowds build.
