Covid-19 Information
Thursday 24 February 2022 – Removal of Self-isolation Requirements – England Only
With all Covid restrictions due to end in England on Thursday 24th February 2022, our priority is to continue to offer the best possible experience to our guests whilst ensuring we also look after our staff. We continue to have hygiene and safety measures in place throughout our attraction, including enhanced cleaning, hand sanitiser and increased ventilation.
Those staff who may wish to continue wearing a face covering whilst working, most notably when in indoor locations, will have the option to do so. At Merlin Entertainments our guests and staff safety remain of paramount importance, and we’ll therefore continue to monitor and review this situation.
If you or any of your party display any symptoms of COVID-19 or have tested positive, we ask that you do not visit and contact us at info@beargryllsadventure.com to rearrange your booking.
We ask that you make us aware of this before your visit date, with as much notice as possible. We will require proof of a positive COVID test via email in order to amend your order.
Stay safe, and never give up!
