Location: Africa

Description: Perhaps the most popular attraction at Animal Kingdom, when you ride Kilimanjaro Safari® you will jump aboard a safari jeep and let Disney bring the Zoo to you! For this attraction you will be magically transported to an African savannah known as the Harambe Reserve. Make sure you have your cameras ready for this attraction. You will get great opportunities for pictures, but be prepared, the ride will not slow or stop so you can take a photo…you must be ready! You will see amazing animals such as Bongos, Lions, warthogs, elephants, cheetahs, black rhinos, flamingos, zebra, giraffes, and baboons.

Average Wait Times: Utilize Fast Pass for this attraction to save time as this is fabulous and everyone knows it! Also, when crowds part because of rain you can sometimes have a great run with great animal sitings and interaction so board the Simba 1 if you can anytime its walk-on!
