Looking for a fun way to celebrate Christmas with the family? Take a ride on the Polar Express near Hendersonville. The Great Smoky Mountains Railroad is taking visitors on a magical journey to the North Pole aboard their special Polar Express from now through Christmas Eve. There's nothing like it!
Once you board the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad's Polar Express (which departs from Bryson City Depot), you and your children will be treated to the retelling of the Christmas classic as you are whisked away to the North Pole. Between sips of hot cocoa, listen to carols being sung by the staff. Once you reach the North Pole, Santa Claus will join you, bringing each little girl and boy a special gift...their very own sleigh bell. But, will they be able to hear it ring? You'll have to be on board to find out!
