Rainy Day Guarantees are offered by certain outdoor attractions and often mean that, if your day out is ruined by the weather, you can use your tickets to go at another time. But it's important to understand how these guarantees work, as there are usually strict conditions that need to be met.
Finding things to do with kids can be challenging, but inclement weather makes it even harder. Factor in too that family days out can be expensive, even if you are attempting a free day out. For example, paying on the gate at Alton Towers costs £272 for a family of four and £256 at Chessington World of Adventures. If you've forked out that fee, the last thing you want is for the day to be a washout, and the whole family be miserable traipsing around in the rain, or worse still, wanting to leave early because of it.
