FAQs
How long is the magical sleigh ride? Sessions last 5 minutes,
How many tickets can I book per ride? Tickets can be booked for 1 to 5 people. In some cases, you may share the ride with another group of 2/3 people, but never on the same bench on the ride.
What do I do if my party has more than five in it? If you are a family of 6 or more, you will need to split up into two groups as the ride will only hold a maximum of 6 people.
Will the headset fit me? All headsets are fully adjustable and we do have a backup TV at the front of the ride should you or your child be uncomfortable wearing a headset.
Does the ride itself move? As the ride is 4D virtual reality there is a small amount of movement, this is minimal to ensure that the whole family can enjoy this. The ride gently rocks and fans blow for an even more immersive experience.
I have a ticket for The Magic of Christmas, is this included?
This is a separate ride and separate from the Magical Grotto and would require two separate tickets.
