The $45 ticket purchase includes a Jingle Bell, a festive bag to hold any uneaten hand-made chocolate treasures, a horse drawn Austrian sleigh ride through Jackson Village and 8 to 10 hand-made chocolates presented to you right in your sleigh at each stop along the way.  (Riders do not get out of sleighs to get their chocolates the proprietors of each business meets the sleighs and presents your chocolate goodies to you!)  Chocolatiers may change without any advance notice.

How Long does the Tour Take?

You can expect to be on your sleigh ride for approximately one hour.  Depending upon traffic throughout the village and how long each stop takes the timing may vary slightly.

Where to we park?

Very important… the Snowflake Inn is open and operating their extremely wonderful Inn during the Jingle Bell Chocolate Tour.  The property is very busy.  There are parking spots available at the Jackson Grammar School located across the street.  There is limited parking in the far back lot of the Snowflake Inn.  This property is an all adult property.  We ask that parties with young children wait outside to boar their sleighs.  After returning from your sleigh ride we ask anyone not having business directly with the Snowflake Inn return to your car as the check in area is overwhelmingly busy during this event.

Tell us about the Chocolatiers!

Each year our chocolatiers provide about 2,000 pieces of home-made chocolates to our riders.  Although a percentage of the ticket price goes to the chocolatiers they are providing the service of meeting and greeting each sleigh and the chocolates at their expense.  They volunteer to help keep this amazing event going.  Please be sure to frequent our chocolatiers establishments and be sure the THANK THEM!  Our Chocolatiers are listed above.
