A Magical Christmas Experience
Led by an Elf guide, visitors journey to the North Pole to explore the Enchanted Forest, make a wish by the Magical Wishing Tree, and peek inside the Elves' Workshop. Families can hear festive tales in Mrs Claus's kitchen, write and send letters at the post office, and take part in holiday crafts and games. After the Chief Elf checks the Naughty or Nice list, each family enjoys an individual meeting with Father Christmas.
