View Nature

So cute!

Animal Kingdom is the perfect starting point for Earth Day festivities. Guests can explore the various animal trails and habitats, immersing themselves in the wonders of the natural world. From the majestic elephants on the Kilimanjaro Safaris to the playful gorillas on the Pangani Forest Exploration Trail, there are countless opportunities to observe and learn about wildlife conservation efforts.

Beautiful Zebras at AK Lodge

For those looking to dive deeper into the world of animals, a visit to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge is a must. This stunning resort offers guests the chance to see animals up close, with savanna-view rooms providing unparalleled views of giraffes, zebras, and other African wildlife roaming freely outside your window. And dine at Sanaa to see these animals right out the window while you eat (this is one of our absolute favorites).
