Retired Rides : Around The World
In 80 Days
Around The World In 80 Days, was one of the
first attractions installed in 1981.
Located in the bottom end of Talbot Street,
the ride consisted of a boat ride, taking you through a tour
of different countries with characters, costumes and sets
all meticulous in their detail. Each country had its own music
which played in each area of the ride. You could travel through
London, Siam, Egypt, New York, Venice, Greenland, Las Vegas,
Vienna. Holland, Brazil, Paris, London Docks and Battersea.
The ride was closed at the end of 1993, stripped,
and re-opened in 1994 as Toyland Tours, which is much the
same, except is a tour through Toyland.
