Lot Essay

The inspiration behind this intrepid design was based on Robert Ripley’s voyage across the world. He was the founder of Ripley’s Believe It or Not! London and he was always in search of the ‘unbelievable’.
Natascha Crump, General Manager at Ripley's Believe It or Not! London believes this was the ideal opportunity to bring together two great explorers, "We are absolutely delighted to be taking part in The Paddington Trail. As an attraction based on its love of exploration and adventure, we cannot think of a better partner than Paddington Bear who is indeed a young explorer himself, like many of the guests who pass through our doors every day."
Paddington the Explorer will hopefully inspire you to explore all of London and further afield, and to seek out incredible things to share with other people.
