Santa Train

PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION BELOW as there are many non-authorized AI videos that some are mistaking for our train ride.

All aboard the Santa Train!  Our vintage train has a special seat reserved just for Santa and his elves and all the kids get to meet him and receive a special gift from him. Elves and sometimes even Mrs. Claus may show up to read stories aboard the train! This is one of our most popular rides and you won’t want to miss this opportunity to meet Santa and take pictures!  Trains sell out quickly on this one, so buy your tickets in advance!

Choose Premium Class for Table Seating that includes Biggby Hot Cocoa and a Cookie from our local Delly Belly bakery!

Runs weekends between Thanksgiving and Christmas
