Holiday Trolley Express
Hop on the Holiday Trolley Express! We will venture through the area streets to see all the houses decorated for the season. During our ride we will hear a story from one of Santa’s helpers and sing Christmas Carols. Upon arrival back from the ride you will have time to visit with Santa, receive a gift bag, make a holiday craft and enjoy a few of Santa’s favorite treats—cookies and hot chocolate. Total time including trolley ride is 1–1.5 hours
