    Hi guys,

    I am looking to book a really nice Santa experience (not just going to visit the big guy), but an actual activity / experience for a 9 year old. I have a feeling this could be our last year :(

    We have been to causey farm before, but would like to try somewhere different. I ahve heard the zoo can be good, has anyone been? Or can recommend anywhere else?

    Thank you

    I have heard people on about the Tayto Park being good at Xmas but I haven;t been myself

    Awe my 7 year old sons best buddy is a non believer and he was questioning last year so hopefully I'll get a few years out of him yet :(

    Is it just Dublin, or the whole country?

    Fota House will be good. Bit more grown up... So might suit the 9 year old.

    Leahy's farm is supposed to be very good. You pet the crib animals, lots to do there.

    I saw someone else mention Rancho Reilly in Carlow here before.. We're thinking of heading down with our little guy before Xmas.

    Has anyone visited Fort Lucan for Santa Clause? We're trying to go somewhere this Sunday and want it to be worth the money spent!

    Thanks

    Thanks for that-we were only thinking there as it's only 5 minutes from us but we might rethink it so. Thanks for posting, i'll keep searching!
