All Aboard the Merry Mission Dayliner
This holiday season, it’s up to you to help save Christmas! The elves at Santa’s Workshop have fallen behind, and only a train full of merry passengers can help bring back the Christmas Spirit.
Join us on the Merry Mission Dayliner, a festive 60-minute daytime train ride designed especially for families. This interactive experience features a Christmas-themed scavenger hunt with festive scratch cards and heartwarming ways to spread Christmas spirit.
Santa himself will join the ride to check in on our progress and spread some cheer of his own!
Perfect for young adventurers and the young-at-heart, this ride is a magical memory in the making.
