About the event

Festive Boat Trips & Santa’s Grotto Experience at the National Waterways Museum Ellesmere Port
ABOUT THIS EVENT


Enjoy a Festive Boat Trip with one of Santa's elves and then visit Santa in his magical grotto.

Santa’s most mischievous elf – Naughty Ned – has been up to his antics again… He was playing hide and seek in Santa’s sack, and got stuck…so Walter the water vole had to help him out. But now there’s a big hole in the bottom of the sack and some of the presents from the grotto have fallen out along the canal! Jump on board our festive narrowboat with one of our friendly canal elves and help find the missing presents!

Once you’ve found them all, our cheerful elf will entertain you with Christmas jokes and puzzles before inviting you to sing Christmas songs and jingle Christmas bells all the way back to Santa’s Grotto at the museum (remember, you’ll need to sing loudly to make sure Santa hears you coming!)

After your boat trip you can meet Santa in his Grotto to share some of your Christmas wishes with him before choosing a present to take home. Your ticket allows you free entry into the museum for the whole day.
