    Animal Kingdom
    Love this park. Starting to get more rides and being updated. Animal surroundings are the best I have ever seen. Great stuff and amazing day out. Can’t be missed if going to Orlando for a holiday. Pandora has one of the best rides I have ever been on. Head here as soon as the park opens or lines will most likely be few hours within 30 mins of opening.

    Experience a different type of Amusement park
    It seems to be a lesser visited park, but we love it. Animalkingdom is a bit exotic and more experiential than the typical amusement park. Maybe we enjoy the organic too much but you really are transported to another world at Animal Kingdom.

    Fantastic and relaxing day!
    Great park to go to when you want a day with a slower pace than the parks with lots of rides. Great to see the animals and birds. Gorillas are a must see. Fantastic and informative staff. Avatar Flight of Passage ride is amazing. Food at Avatar canteen also great. Good prices and nice to have some alternatives to the usual unhealthy theme park food!

    Perfect Park
    This was a great place during this hot Sept. Lots of shade and areas for rest. I think this was my favourite of the Disney Parks. The new Avatar rides are fantastic! Please enjoy some Dole whip/floats. The flights of feathers bird show was excellent.

    Love seeing the animals
    The clue is in the name. The focus isn't on big rides its about seeing and learning about the animals and seeing them in their natural habitat. If you don't want to see the animals then dont come. There are only 2 big rides here, Avatar and Everest We went with our grandchildren 2 x 5 year old and 2 x 2 year olds. They loved this park. The safari ride is brilliant for them

    Really special
    Our family of two adults, an 8 year old and a 6 year old visited Disney World for two weeks holiday in October. This is a really special place and we came here twice to enjoy it. Aside from the rides which are thrilling, the conservation station is a credit to Disney. Along with their sustainability work at Epcot and the aquarium, they do their bit for the environment. As we were staying in the Art of Animation resort, we used rope drop and Genie Plus so never waited more than 20 minutes for rides. See separate reviews about rides, shows and restaurants. Make sure you spend an evening here to see Pandora lit up - it's beautiful. Enjoy!

    Animal Kingdom
    We had a great time at Animal Kingdom. Must Dos are Everest, Avatar: Flight of Passage, Dinosaur, and the Safari. Always a great day. Can most likely do this park in half a day, however definitely possible to spend a full day if you do the minor attractions as well.

    Christmas time at Animal Kingdom
    Thoroughly enjoyed a lovely day at Animal Kingdom during the Christmas season. Got there first thing in the morning and saw tons of animals on the safari. Enjoyed lunch at the canteen in Pandora. Avatar Flight of Passage is the closest I can imagine to actually being able to fly without BASE jumping. Amazing. Park was busy as always but thoroughly enjoyable.

    The best animal park ever!
    This park is executed so perfectly! The only downfall is there aren’t nearly as many rides as the other parks but they are without a doubt quality rides, especially Pandora: Flight of Passage, Expedition Everest, Dinosaur (soon-to-be Indiana Jones), and Kilimanjaro Safari. You can enjoy watching these animals knowing that everything being done here is 100% humane and the animals have a very big space to be able to explore. Flight of Passage line gets pretty long but it is worth the wait or worth paying to skip the line. Satuli Canteen was such a delicious lunch but not the best for picky eaters, so in that case I would choose Flame Tree BBQ. Gorilla Falls and Maharaja Jungle Trek are places you HAVE to walk through. So many amazing animals to awe over. This park has such a different feel from the other Disney parks which makes me love it even more. It may not stay open as late as the others, but it opens earlier and is just so much more secluded and relaxing.

    Pandora Village after DARK!
    I had never been to Disney World (6 decades have gone by). Our first park was Magic Kingdom. In the back of my head, I am thinking Animal Kingdom was going to be a glorified zoo. Was I wrong. We both loved this park! Loved the way Disney set up (restaurants, gift shops, etc) for the different nations represented there. It was getting late (November, the park closes at 7:00), we were both tired from walking (all day long past 3 days). It was around 6 PM and getting darker out. I suggested that we start walking back towards the entrance. My wife wanted to go to Pandora world before we left, even though we were coming back the next morning. I am so glad she wanted to do this! This place comes alive after dark! The experience is similar to the movie when they were in the forest. Everything was magical, the lighting of the plants trees, water features pathways. The strange animal noises coming from the woods or the floating mountains. I didn’t want to leave. I really wanted to spend a night here. Incredible. When we went back the next day and went back to Pandora land, it did not have the magical experience that it has after dark. I know, if/when we come back, visiting this park will be a priority at night. The entire Animal Kingdom was well done and I was impressed. Gone now are any thoughts of a glorified zoo. This review is just my opinion.
