Santa Island Experience: A Magical Adventure
Starting on the 21st of November, visitors are invited to embark on the Santa Island Experience, a unique and immersive journey across the lake to meet Santa and his elves.
This magical journey begins with an enchanting boat ride across Alderford Lake, where you will be transported to Santa’s Island, the home of Santa Claus and his bustling team of elves.
As you step onto the island, the elves will welcome you with their all-time favourite treat—a deliciously gooey s’more—to enjoy while you listen to the heartwarming story of their adventures in the North Pole. Next, you’ll follow the Wishing Elf across the twinkling Wishing Bridge, where you can make a special Christmas wish that will be carried away by the enchanted stream below.
But the magic doesn’t end there! Join the elves in their toy workshop and lend a hand in making toys for children around the world. This hands-on experience is perfect for children who want to see the behind-the-scenes magic of Santa’s workshop. After your hard work, you’ll be treated to a steaming cup of hot chocolate from the Elf Bar—parents can enjoy a festive tipple as well.
Your journey concludes with a visit to Santa’s Grotto, where Santa himself will be waiting to hear your Christmas wishes. It’s a truly magical experience that captures the wonder and joy of the holiday season.
The Santa Island Experience is more than just a visit to see Santa—it’s an immersive, interactive journey into the very heart of Christmas magic.
The Santa Island Experience runs on selected dates from the 21st November- 23rd December. Prices start from £27 per person.
