Disney's Animal Kingdom® Park

Disney's Animal Kingdom® Park is one of the most unique theme parks in the entire world. Where else can you take an African safari, watch dinosaurs before your very eyes and become fully immersed in another planet? Each of the four Walt Disney World® Resort theme parks feature an icon. Disney's Animal Kingdom® Park's is The Tree of Life, featuring 325 carvings on its twisting trunk and roots.

Here is just a glimpse at the six diverse areas you can find at Disney's Animal Kingdom® Park:

• Discovery Island
• Pandora - The World of Avatar
• Africa
• Rafiki's Planet Watch
• Asia
• DinoLand U.S.A.

Luckily, Disney's Animal Kingdom® Park is included in the Walt Disney World Resort's Genie+ System. With Genie+, you can get priority access to some of the most popular rides for an additional cost. The most popular Genie+ attractions are Na'vi River Journey, Expedition Everest and the Kilimanjaro Safaris. Because of the huge demand for the attractions in Pandora - The World of Avatar, you'll want to consider paying an additional cost to get an Individual Lightning Lane reservation for Avatar Flight of Passage.

Disney's Animal Kingdom® Park also offers some delicious tastes from around the world. The Tusker House is one of the more popular Character Dining locations with classic Disney characters geared up for a safari. Tiffins is one of the most desirable reservations for foodies, and they offer a Rivers of Light Dining package when it is playing.

Like the other three major Walt Disney World® Resort theme parks, Disney's Animal Kingdom® also transforms for the seasons. Animals feast on pumpkins during the fall, and special Halloween activities can be found at Rafiki's Planet Watch. Expect Christmas decor and nightly hours during the holidays.

No matter the time of year that you visit Disney's Animal Kingdom® Park, you're bound to have a wonderful time.
