Let’s talk about the Wild Africa Trek tour at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Embark on a privately-guided, VIP expedition full of close encounters with exotic African wildlife!

“The highlight of the Wild Africa Trek is the chance to get up close to the animals and gain new insights about them. It’s exhilarating to cross the rope bridges with safety harnesses over crocodiles. And, of course, the snack break is excellent!” - .jollyholiday

Be awestruck viewing wild animals in their natural habitat on the 3-hour Wild Africa Trek. On this privately guided tour, discover animals of nearly every variety living in the Safi River Valley—an untamed environment that resembles their home turf in Africa.

Walk along a grassland path, cross a rope bridge and ride in a rugged safari vehicle over an open savanna—with a chance to view African creatures including towering giraffes, powerful rhinos, hippos and crocodiles.

Along your journey, your knowledgeable guide will share insights about the majestic animals you’re viewing, as well as details about the park’s dedication to animal conservation.

And as if your safari weren’t memorable enough, you’ll receive a complimentary souvenir and complimentary PhotoPass photos as well!

Indulge In Gourmet Eats
Work up an appetite during your trek and then enjoy some first-class, African-inspired snacks.

Sample Menu
* Garlic and leek hummus and pita
* Prosciutto and mozzarella
* Olive mix
* Fresh fruit
* Chicken wrap
* Marinated tandoori shrimp

Guests must be 8 years old to participate.

“ I would do this tour again anytime. It was a truly unique experience that we thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend, escpecially If you are an animal lover and are interested in learning more about the care of the animals at Animal Kingdom. The Wild Africa Trek has been our favorite Disney Tour so far!” .jollyholiday

Message me for more details on this tour! Disney has multiple opening days and times for reserving tours, dining and activities, and when you book with me, I keep up with all of that so you don’t have to worry about missing a thing.

🔑 Have you ever wanted to explore the famous underground Utilidors at Magic Kingdom and get behind the scenes access? If so, the Keys to the Kingdom Tour at is for you!

🔑 Our tour included lunch at Pecos Bills, a ride on the Jungle Cruise and Haunted Mansion, and a keepsake pin.

Here is how Disney describes the tour:

🔑 During the Keys to the Kingdom tour, you’ll unlock the fascinating history of Magic Kingdom park and gain backstage access to legendary hidden areas.

🔑 This 5-hour walking tour explores the creation and remarkable growth of one of the most beloved parks at Walt Disney World Resort! Explore secret locations you’ve always wondered about and get the inside scoop on some of your favorite attractions.

The Guest-accessible areas of Magic Kingdom park are actually on the second floor of a massive structure.

You’ve got to see the Utilidor for yourself!

Main dining, Main dining, Main dining! Many of my guests want the earlier dining rotation (Main dining) because their kids have a more difficult time staying awake until the second dining rotation. See Exhibit A above. 😴

The earlier you book, the more likely it is that main dining is available for your sailing. If it’s not, there are ways around it- including- using ME as your agent to call in and try and work some magic! I have had several families this week who were looking for cruises after Christmas with main dining- and I was the one on the phone for hours at a time with Disney Cruise Line making sure we found an itinerary that had Main dining available. Swipe for Exhibit B. And guess what?! I was able to get every family main dining! 🥳

Our services are complimentary for those who book with us, and booking with us is exactly the same cost as booking through Disney Cruise Line directly.

Are you looking for someone to take something off your plate at no cost to you? Hit me up:
