Animal Kingdom

Disney's Animal Kingdom celebrates the wondrous world of animals and is Disney's first truly "live" theme park. It is so refreshing to see living creatures after worlds of audio-animatronix! Yet lavish stage shows and thrilling rides make Animal Kingdom much more than a zoo.

Animals are most likely to be visible and active in the early morning hours, so arrive at Animal Kingdom as early as you can.

safari INSIDER TIP:Kilimanjaro Safaris (Africa)is by far the best attraction in Animal Kingdom, and is the next best thing to a real African safari! Set on 110 acres, the "Savannah" is larger than the entire Magic Kingdom!

You will travel in open-air, jeep-like trams over bumpy trails and face challenging obstacles, such as flooded roads and a collapsed bridge. Along the way, you get up close to over 250 animals roaming the Savannah, including flamingos, elephants, lions, crocodiles, giraffes, hippos, rhinos, ostriches, cheetahs, zebra, and storks. Children, teens and adults rave about this attraction.

The animal love being out in the rain during warm weather, so don't let a rainy day stop you from enjoying safari ride. Fastpass is recommended.

INSIDER TIP:Dinosaur! is journey through primeval scenes populated with audio-animatronic dinosaurs.
