Dallas may be known for barbecue, but chocolate lovers can rejoice because Dallas By Chocolate is here. Hop into a coach and tour the city’s gourmet chocolatiers as well as several holiday light displays. You can keep the chocolate coming with a mug of hot cocoa in the coach between destinations. Enjoy truffles, macaroons, and more as you visit the best chocolate companies in Dallas. The Holiday Lights Trolley Ride will take you to some of the most dazzling holiday light displays around. The trolley is even heated so you can enjoy the sights in comfort.
What are the best holiday markets in Dallas?
Dallas is completely packed with wonderful markets during the holiday season. The Chi Omega Christmas Market has been going on for over 40 years and is a haven for lovers of holiday arts and crafts. Creators from all over the state put their artistry on display in this massive market every year. For even more handcrafted holiday goodness, check out the Funky Finds Holiday Shopping Experience at the Fort Worth Will Rogers Memorial Center where you’ll find all sorts of imaginative creations.
What holiday rides are available in Dallas?
You might not think a Polar Express type of train ride would exist in Texas, but Dallas has the North Pole Express where kids can wear their pajamas and all aboard sing Christmas songs together as the train chugs its way to Santa’s Workshop. Passengers then disembark and walk through a Christmas Tree forest and then are treated to live holiday entertainment. How about a ride on the water? The North Pole Boat Ride at Lynn Creek Marina will take you out on a pontoon and you’ll coast my illuminated and decorated boats of all kinds. The reflections of the lights on the water are something special.
