    O N E P A G E G U I D E ANIMAL KINGDOM ATTRACTIONS TulipAndSnowflake.com ANIMAL KINGDOM PLANNING MADE EASY! Shows? Rides? Animal paths? What exactly is there to do at Disney’s Animal Kingdom? This one-page guide provides information to help you decide which attractions are right for your family, which ones require advanced planning or FastPass reservations, and what time of day you might want to enjoy each one. In addition to basic facts like ​minimum height requirements​ and ​FastPass availability​, this guide indicates whether the queue and the attraction itself are ​indoors​, ​outside​, or ​covered​. Use this information to determine which rides should be avoided in the afternoon heat and rain. Queue interest​ prepares you for boredom and help you decide which attractions you want to FastPass or only attempt with a short posted wait time to avoid a boring line. Wait indicators​ give you an idea of the line length that these attractions draw. The ​attraction types and descriptions​ provide a basic description of each attraction, how your family might be split up, and just how comfortable those theater seats may (or may not!) be. This guide does not include ​character meetings​. Check the Times Guide in the park for character locations and meeting availability times. Let’s start planning your Animal Kingdom park day!

  • Magic Kingdom – Must-See Attractions
    There is so much to see and do at Walt Disney World; it can be hard to know where to begin. Here is a list of recommended “Must-See” Attractions and FastPass tips to help you get started. General FastPass+ Tips for every park You will be relying heavily on the My Disney Experience app within the parks, and it is a huge drain on your battery! • Think about changing the settings on your phone so other features are not taking a toll on your battery. There is free Wi- Fi in the parks. • Consider carrying a portable charger. There are also vending machines with Fuel Rod chargers you can purchase in the parks. When that charger has no more power, you can swap it in the parks for a fully charged one at no additional cost. If you plan to make your own FastPass reservations, keep in mind that Disney Resort Guests can make FastPass selections at 6 am CST 60 days in advance. We HIGHLY recommend that you take advantage of this and make your selections as early as possible. Remember, FastPass reservations can be modified from your My Disney Experience app while you are in the parks. Also, you can book additional FastPasses once you have used your three pre-reserved FastPasses. If you need assistance, ask any Disney Cast Member. Magic Kingdom – Must-See Attractions Attractions that most often need a Attractions that NEVER need a Attractions that need a FastPass only FastPass: FastPass: during peak seasons: • Seven Dwarfs Mine Train • Barnstormer • Under the Sea: Journey of the little • Peter Pan • Mad Tea Party Mermaid • Enchanted Tales with Belle
