Step through the looking glass this summer as Alice’s Wonderland Express arrives at Spa Valley Railway for a brand-new interactive family adventure aboard a heritage steam train.
Created by the team behind the hugely popular THE POLAR EXPRESS™ Train Ride, this enchanting experience invites families to join Alice, the White Rabbit and the Mad Hatter as they race to prepare the Queen of Hearts’ Royal Train before she arrives.
Departing from Tunbridge Wells West Station, passengers will become part of the story from the moment they board, solving riddles, navigating mazes, hunting for missing words and completing a series of curious Wonderland-themed activities throughout the journey.

On board, children will receive an activity booklet where they’ll colour the Queen’s roses, create royal decorations and collect Royal Railway Stamps as they help transform the train into a carriage fit for royalty.
Every passenger will also enjoy a slice of cake and a cold drink during the journey, with vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free options available when booked in advance.
The experience is hauled by a real steam locomotive, with plenty of opportunities to enjoy the sights, sounds and atmosphere of heritage rail travel, as well as photo opportunities with favourite Wonderland characters. Best of all, your ticket also includes unlimited travel on other Spa Valley Railway trains operating that day.
Taking place on Saturday 29 – Monday 31 August and Saturday 5 – Sunday 6 September, book your tickets for Alice’s Wonderland Express today!
