Tips & Advice

  • Book a child’s ticket with the included adult in mind, and add a separate ticket if another adult plans to attend.
  • Make sure each child who wants to meet Mr Claus has a child’s ticket, as children are called individually.
  • Keep children ready to respond when called, since each child has an individual meet-and-greet and receives a gift.
  • The experience takes place inside the Yuletide Yurt; look for the yurt rather than the other listed Raby activities.
