Bring the Kids on the River Fox Train Easter Egg Express
Springtime brings a burst of excitement, and there’s no better way to celebrate than with a ride on the Easter Egg Express! This delightful event, hosted by River Fox Train, combines the thrill of a train ride with the joy of an Easter egg hunt, making it a perfect outing for families. Departing from the scenic Sacramento River station, the 90-minute roundtrip journey takes passengers along a 10-mile stretch of Yolo countryside, offering stunning views of ivy-draped woodlands, sprawling fields, and shimmering riverfront vistas.
The adventure begins as the train chugs along, filled with kid-friendly entertainment to keep little ones engaged. At Elkhorn Landing, children can scramble to collect Easter eggs during a lively hunt, while the Easter Bunny himself hops aboard to greet everyone. The return trip is extra special, with opportunities for kids to snap photos with the fluffy guest of honor. Parents can relax and soak in the nostalgic charm of the train, sipping adult beverages available for purchase or grabbing light snacks like chips and soda.
The River Fox Café at Elkhorn Station Park serves hot food, ensuring no one goes hungry. This event isn’t just for locals—visitors to Sacramento will love this unique way to explore the region. Tickets cover the train ride, entertainment, and egg hunt, making it a hassle-free day of fun. Whether you’re admiring the scenery or watching your kids giggle with delight, the Easter Egg Express promises memories that’ll last long after the last egg is found. Book your spot and hop aboard for a springtime escape that’s as enchanting as the season itself!
