Whatever you do, don’t call it a zoo! Disney's Animal Kingdom | Travel Towards - Travel articles and information from around the world


They’re rather touchy about calling Walt Disney’s Animal Kingdom a zoo. Well for one, it isn’t! Spread across a sprawling 500 acres, this exquisite theme park takes you on a journey like never before. The park is home to some 1700 animals representing 250 different species. A ride on the Kilimanjaro Safari will let you meet many of them, as you cross through the African Savannah. Slow moving jeeps let you experience this wonder from close angles, letting you have a good picture to put on your refrigerator later.

But the true wonder of this park is the mythical Tree of Life, a true work of art. Take the Maharaja Jungle Trek and feel the mysterious deep Asian jungles, teeming with life – bats, komodo dragons, deer, exotic birds and plenty of other wildlife. The Kali River Rapids let you go on a short but exhilarating ride on the river, at the same time also being informative about the evils of deforestation.

While you are venturing through the natural wonders of Asia at Animal Kingdom, take the Expedition Mount Everest. A one of kind roller coaster ride, complete with Yeti’s attacking you mid way and taking you the snow clad peaks of Mount Everest – the highest mountain on Earth.If you get tired and want to sit back and relax, there is always the McNuggets and Rainforest Café to satiate you hunger. You could just walk in and meet Simba and friends or watch Nemo perform in Nemo – The Musical.

Whatever you choose to do at Animal Kingdom, there is one thing you will have in plenty – Fun!
