In-Depth Information
artist best described as half-vine and half-creeping plant. She blends perfectly with
the foliage at Animal Kingdom and is only noticeable when she moves (which can
be quite startling if you're not aware of her presence). DiVine travels around the park
but seems to love the path between Asia and Africa; if you don't encounter her, ask
a cast member where she can be found. Video of her is available at
YouTube
(go to
youtube.com
and search for “DiVine Disney's Animal Kingdom”).
SPECIAL EVENTS
IN JUNE
2014, Disney unveiled
Harambe Nights
, an indoor/outdoor event held on
Saturday nights during the summer. It featured a retelling of the
Lion King
story, in-
cluding a live orchestra and digital special effects, at the
Festival of the Lion King
theater in Africa; preshow appetizers, desserts, wine, and beer; and a postshow “street
party” with live music, roaming Disney characters, and an Indian-African buffet.
Harambe Nights was a huge hit during its inaugural run, selling out every weekend,
so chances are good that Disney will bring it back in the future.

TOURING PLANS
OUR STEP-BY-STEP TOURING PLANS ARE FIELD-TESTED
, independently verified itinerar-
ies that will keep you moving counter to the crowd flow. The plans will also allow
you to see as much as possible in a single day with minimum time wasted in line. Be-
cause Animal Kingdom has fewer attractions than the other parks, you can take them
in during a single day, even when traveling with young children.
The different touring plans are described below. The descriptions will tell you
for whom (for example, tweens, parents with preschoolers, and so on) or for what
situation (such as sleeping late) the plans are designed. The
actual touring plans
are
located. Each plan includes a numbered map of the park to help you find your way
around.
We've also listed the attractions most likely to need FastPass+ and the FastPass+
return times for which you should attempt to make reservations. Check
