Readers' Opinions
Fantastic! One of the best park experiences my wife and I have had had ever. - Mark Fairleigh hi - Alim Hali Commendable. The animals can't be expected to pose for pictures though! On one trip it was made more exciting by a giraffe that decided to charge the vehicle! - Mark Moore Kilimanjaro Safari is an awesome ride. It is very long though and you know what that means, longer the ride, longer the wait. It is so much fun to see the wildlife. But into the ride when you are crossing an old bridge you get the sinsation of falling. - Katie G-Desjardins Gotta love Warden Wilson Matua. Superb theme. Try a ride in the very back row behind the tires. Great fun! - William Clark Needs to lose the "Simba- One" themeing and the anti-climactic little thrill chase at the end. The views are great and the ride is worth it as long as the wait is not more than 45 minutues. - Wilfredo Alvelo I had a great time on this ride. I got to see some magnificent animals from very close range. It's great to see them in a more natural habitat than a zoo. I could have done without the poachers story at the end, but the tour guide was excellent. - Carl Stovall Key attraction at Animal Kingdom. You are able to view a variety of animals up close and personal. - Mike Burnette One of the best theme park experiences anywhere. This ride itself is worth the price of admission to the park. The safari seems highly realistic with plenty of animals to see and a guide that is knowledgable and entertaining. The large safari vehicles go over bumpy terrain making the ride more exciting. It is amazing how close someone can get to the animals. I was almost at arms reach length of a rhinoceros when our vehicle drove past the rhinos. The scenery is breathtaking and you really feel your in Africa and not in Florida. You will have a different experience everytime since you never know how many animals will be active when your on board. Near the end of the ride the poachers story line makes the ride vehicle go fast through some uninhabited hills and also means that the safari is over. This is an awesome experience for anyone visiting Central Florida. An absolute Disney masterpiece that develops long lines quickly. Unless you arrive before park opening than your only choice is to get a fastpass. Waiting times for this are among the longest at WDW and the waiting area gets really hot and uncomfortable. Whatever you do don't miss out on this adventure. - Manny Barron I was really looking forward to this ride and wasn't disappointed. The naration was entertaining if a bit cheesy and it was amazing to see all those animals. - Emily G The ride was great, no doubt, but you would think they would make it more camera-friendly. The jeep never stopped and I barely had any good photographs at the end of the twenty minute ride. - Mark Mahoney This is a great ride experience. The safari gives great views of the animals, and the storyline is somewhat neat as well - Patrick Gorham
