Animal Kingdom

Orlando, Florida

Nature, adventure and Pandora

Animal Kingdom is the largest theme park in the world (~580 acres). With Pandora — The World of Avatar, Kilimanjaro Safaris and Expedition Everest, it blends real nature with immersive experiences. It's a half-day to full-day park, and especially magical at dusk when Pandora glows with bioluminescence.

Attractions

Avatar Flight of Passage

Mich's Tip: Disney's most immersive attraction. You fly over Pandora on a banshee. The LL Single Pass is a must.

Expedition Everest

Mich's Tip: Coaster with a backwards drop. Great at night when you can see less of what's coming.

Mich's Animal Kingdom Strategy

  1. 1

    Early Entry: straight to Avatar Flight of Passage. The line grows insanely fast.

  2. 2

    Then Na'vi River Journey (while you're still in Pandora).

  3. 3

    Kilimanjaro Safaris before 10 AM — the animals are more active.

  4. 4

    Expedition Everest and Kali River Rapids in Asia.

  5. 5

    Midday: Festival of the Lion King (unmissable).

  6. 6

    Afternoon: explore the animal trails (Gorilla Falls, Maharajah Trek).

  7. 7

    Sunset: head back to Pandora to see it lit up at night. Magical.

Note: Animal Kingdom closes earlier than the other parks (7-8 PM). Plan to arrive early.
