00:00Enchanted has once again taken over Knowsley Safari, illuminating the attraction.
00:08Join me as I explore all the light-up animals, magical sounds and sights of this.
00:15Enchanted at Knowsley Safari is an animal-themed evening light trail.
00:20The attraction's foot safari has been completely transformed into a cacophony of colour and festive fantasia,
00:27where visitors are able to capture memories on the Rainbow Road, through the icy blue Arctic Arcadia,
00:33and even converse with a talking tree.
00:36It is actually surprisingly mild for this time of year.
00:40I've just got a jumper and this on and I feel fine.
00:44Now before you get through to the illuminated animals on the foot safari, you come into the Winter Village.
00:51Now you can toast some marshmallows, write a letter to the big man and even post it.
00:57And then there's a whole load of food and drink options for you to enjoy.
01:02And there's some undercover seating too, if it doesn't stay dry.
01:06As this event is after dark, the animals are not visible.
01:09However, there are plenty of illuminated creatures to spot,
01:13from camels to wolves to towering giraffes and playful lion cubs.
01:18The entire Enchanted Light Trail route is accessible for wheelchair users
01:22and there are rest points on the trail if you'd like to take a moment to sit down.
01:27Although it was unseasonably warm during my visit, it is an outdoor event,
01:31so it's advised to dress appropriately and that includes footwear as it can get a little muddy.
01:37New for 2024 is the Santa Panto.
01:40This mini theatre show combines the magic of Father Christmas with all the fun of a pantomime.
01:45Unfortunately, we didn't have time to make it to see this as it takes around 30 minutes
01:50and unfortunately we got stuck in traffic on the way here.
01:53Enchanted at Knowsley Safari is on until Monday 23rd of December.
