My Top Rides at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

The Top Animal Kingdom Rides


Today, I am starting a short blog series, to tell you about my favorite Walt Disney World rides and attractions. Let's start at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

Large, intricately carved tree in lush greenery under a clear blue sky. The mood is serene and majestic, evoking a sense of wonder.

Flight of Passage Queue

Flight of Passage is my number one.  This ride is a 3-D flying simulator located in Pandora— The World of Avatar.  This ride allows guests to take flight on a banshee and soar across Pandora.  I love that you can feel the wind blowing in your hair, and when it changes to night in Pandora, it is my favorite part of the ride. Have you ridden this ride? Is it one of your favorites?

Expedition Everest is number two at Animal Kingdom for me.   This ride is a steel roller coaster themed around the Yeti protecting the Forbidden Mountain.  The max speed is 50 mph.  My favorite part is when you think the track is broken and you go speeding backwards.  Have you braved Expedition  Everest? 














My number three is Kilimanjaro Safaris.  This ride is an 18-minute open-air safari tour in Harambe Wildlife Reserve.  You never know what animals you will see. The most common are zebras, lions, hippos, giraffes, elephants, and rhinos.  My favorite time on this ride was a nighttime ride. The lions were roaring because a zebra came close to their area. It was very exciting.   Do you enjoy this ride as much as I do?  


Well, how do my top three rides at Animal Kingdom, compare to your own favorites?

Kilimanjaro Safaris is my absolute favourite experience at WDW - every time you board that jeep you are in for a different excursion into the African savannah.

I agree that these are the top three attractions at Animal Kingdom, although I have them in a slightly different order. Kilimanjaro Safari is my number one at Animal Kingdom.
