Happy Holidays to all who celebrate!
There are plenty of holiday snacks to try and special events to enjoy during this holiday season in Disney World. But if you’re not going to be close to any of the parks for the holidays, there’s a really fun way you can celebrate while you run around doing holiday errands — Santa can guide you on your merry way!
Waze has partnered with Santa to guide travelers with his directions this holiday season! Santa and Mrs. Claus will provide turn-by-turn instructions, notices on hazards, and other driving necessities.
With holiday traffic expected to be heavy this year, Santa will provide a lighthearted driving atmosphere. His voice will be available through January 3rd all around the world. You can hear him in British English, American English, French, and Spanish, but Ms. Claus will only be available in the United States.
Drivers can also turn their car into Santa’s sleigh or Mrs. Claus’ C-Wagon vehicle and choose between different moods, or if their icon appears as naughty or nice.
To turn on Santa’s navigation help, tap “My Waze” and the “Drive With Santa” banner in the Waze app.
If you’re hoping to see Santa around Disney World, you can see him in EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Magic Kingdom, and meet him in Disney Springs! As always, stay tuned to DFB for all the latest Disney news!
