Polar Express in Norfolk - worth it?

Would anyone recommend the Polar Express train in Norfolk? It's about 1.5hours from me so further than I would usually consider for our Christmas outing.

I’ve done the polar express Yorkshire and it was AMAZING! Totally worth the money, it was more like an immersive theatre experience than just a train ride. The children loved it, really different from any other experience we’ve ever done.

We did it in Kent and it was the best Christmas experience we have done. Totally agree with it being like an immersive theatre experience. We had a 6 &8, nearly 9 year old with us, and they absolutely loved it.

If it's the mid Norfolk railway, we really enjoyed it and they obviously put a lot of effort in. The kids were small so although it wasn't super slick, it was still fun.

YES! It is brilliant

Yes we all loved it last year including my husband!

Yes we did it in Scotland and it was great

We did it in Kent last year. It was our last ever grotto visit, had tried to get tickets for so long. It was hands down the best grotto experience we’ve done. I preferred it to Lapland Uk, even the teens liked it.

We absolutely flipping loved it.

I'm going to go the other way, and say we did it (not in Norfolk) and it was a bit crap.

We did this! I actually cried it was so magical! (Unknowingly was also pregnant as I found out the next day 🙈).

Was honestly so super magical!!!

We did it (mid norfolk) and my son 10 hated it and burst into tears. He has asd so think it was too much but my 2 year old enjoyed it. It was okay ish but a once and done

I have been three times and never with a child. It can be extremely noisy especially in standard carriages, but much quieter in premium.
