The Wagon Ride Journey

A Horse-Drawn Adventure Through the North Pole Village

Santa and the Perilous Christmas Eve

Climb aboard one of our horse-drawn wagons and journey through a North Pole village brought to life. Over roughly 20 magical minutes, you’ll hear the story of Santa and the Perilous Christmas Eve — based on the children’s book by our very own Dr. Kristine Shaw — narrated live as you ride under the stars.

Along the way, you’ll pass scenes featuring lifelike elves, Santa, and Mrs. Claus as the story unfolds around you. And yes, we even sing a carol or two together as the wagons roll on.

What to Expect

Horse-Drawn Wagons

Ride aboard DONNER or BLITZEN — our two wagons operated by Brad Confer of Ole Covered Wagon Tours. Seating up to 17 guests, each wagon is the perfect way to experience the magic.

A Story Comes Alive

As the wagon rolls through the village, the story of “Santa and the Perilous Christmas Eve” unfolds all around you — with lifelike scenes of elves, Santa, and Mrs. Claus along the route.

Caroling Under the Stars

The journey isn’t just about watching — it’s about being part of the story. Join fellow guests in singing a carol or two as you ride through the night. It’s Christmas the way it should be.
