Come join us for a magical trip to find the Easter Bunny on the Bunny Train!

There is an eggceptional Egg Hunt, an eggxciting trip on a decorated train, an eggxcellent opportunity for pictures with the Bunny herself, and an eggxtra special story.

The young and young at heart will partake on a wonderful ride to the Easter Bunny’s “secret burrow” in vintage antique real trolley cars, where there will be plenty of hidden eggs to find. All the little ones will receive a basket of their own to collect any magical eggs that are found.

Follow the eggs to find the Easter Bunny!

Please allow 1 hour and 15-minutes for this highly interactive experience. Picture taking with the Easter Bunny strongly encouraged.
