Gullivers Milton Keynes

Was wondering would Gullivers in Milton Keynes be suitable for a three year old? He has watched the Barclays ad on TV and is eager to go on a roller coaster!!
He is 98cm tall, would there be rides he wouldn't be allowed on?

I think there were about 3 rides which you needed to be over a metre to go on. But most were over 90cm.

I only went once, pre kids, but I was massively disappointed with Gullivers. It was just all so tatty and there wasn't much to do for the kids I was with.

This was before they built the dinosaur bit though.

Pity, cause now I have a 97-ish cm tall, about-to-be-3 year old and we live within walking distance of the park. I just can't bring myself to go again.

totally disagree - my kids (little ones) love it

The kids I was with were about 7-8 at the time. They seemed to have fun on the bits they went on. The new dinosaur bit might have added some more to do.

Failing that, across the road is the Cathedral of Trees which is a lovely place to run around in

we took our dd who was nearly 4 yrs at the time, she loved it, she is short for her age and managed to go on most of the rides apart from a couple.

word of advice though, take your own food and drinks and quite expensive and not much variety unless you want pizzas, chips, hotdogs etc.

i find Guilivers "enough" for my sons who are nearly 3 and 6.5yrs. We tend to go at xmas mainly but my sister did take my 6yr old last summer and said they did both attractions easily as they didn't que for much

We live about 5 mins from Gulliver's in MK and this year we have brought season passes. We try and get a season pass for something each year and have done Woburn and Whipsnade in the past. Gulliver's is the one we have made the most use off. We have a 6 year old and a 3 year old (although the 3 year old is tiny and under the 90cm so she is free). They love going, even though the 6 year old isn't brave enough to go on some of the rides, and the 3 year old gets upset because she can't go on some of the rides as she is too little!

We've probably made our money back about 4 times this year.
