Visited Disney's Animal Kingdom on Sunday, August 24, 2008 with two other adults (no kids this time.) I was led to believe in the past that the Animal Kingdom was really only a half-day attraction and would not occupy a family for an entire day. This is not the case anymore. I was there from 9:30 a.m. until the park... more

I sort of expected Animal Kingdom to have more things to do. Was a little disappointed in it's size. We loved the rapid ride (although should be longer and have more "rapids") and loved the safari. Parking was $$$ - $11 and the park entrance was too. more

My family and I love to come to Disney. We know our way inside and out around the parks, and went to the Animal Kingdom when it opened in 1999. Since then, we've been back 4 times and are headed back a sixth this fall. Let us share with you some tips for your day at the Animal Kingdom. 1.... more

We had one day to visit Animal Kingdom and eveyone told us to heard right for the Safari Jungle Ride. We did just that and it was a great adventure. If you have a chance in the later afternoon, ride again as there are different animals out in the wild at different times. Our second ride was more interesting than... more

Animal Kingdom tops my list as the worst attraction I've ever visited. What do you get when you take a mediocre amusement park + a mediocre zoo + terrible customer service + an outrageous ticket price? The perfect storm for the worst vacation ever... I'll start with the good though: The safari was pretty cool even if it was staged,... more

I (28) went to Animal Kingdom on July 3rd with my mom (55) and sister (17). We got there just in time for the morning EMH. This park was fairly empty until 10am when it suddenly got pretty packed. It didnt begin to empty until after 4pm. The park had a tropical feel to it. I was really impressed with... more

Animal Kingdom was well worth it. My overall experience was great. I had to wait in horrible long lines, but it was still well worth it. In the summer I think everyday is packed. I went on a Wed and the lines were still VERY long. HOWEVER, if you are park hopping or want to do the many trails, then... more

My wife, 2 yr old daughter, and I all enjoyed the park. It was extremely overcrowded in the morning but by 12 it was much less painful. Perhaps we started on the wrong side as we went straight for the Safari ride which is where everyone seemed to be headed. The charachter greeting setup seemed pretty good as they had... more

Just returned from Disney trip - really enjoyed Animal kingdom - was very busy but as long as you had a plan and somebody who was prepared to get the fastpasses for the day - you were sorted. Arrived at park at 9am - walked straight to Expedition Everest and there was already a 30 min queue. So got a... more

I think this is the newest Disney park in Orlando, and it is clear that everything they have learned was used in designing this park! Our three kids were between 3 and 6 when we went last fall and they all had a blast. They were intrigued with the live shows, especially the Lion King. We were impressed with the... more
