We really enjoyed this experience. Our kids are 11 and 13 and loved it. The lights were beautiful! Riding rides in the cold is definitely a different experience (dress warm!) but our kids loved it. There are so many great places to take pictures. The Santa line wasn’t terribly long. We didn’t do it because our kids “are too big for that” but the display around Santa was beautiful and I imagine it makes for some great pics. We went on a Friday at 6 and it wasn’t as overcrowded as I expected after reading other reviews. We would definitely do this again next year!
