Disney’s Animal Kingdom Tasting Sampler Returns This Winter
It’s back again! The Disney’s Animal Kingdom Tasting Sampler will be returning once again for the winter season. Guests will be able to purchase a digital card which will allow you to taste your way around Disney’s Animal Kingdom, enjoying the park’s carts, kiosks, and, after 4:00 p.m. the ability to enjoy quick-service restaurants.
The sampler card costs $50 and it includes two digital value cards: one $50 card that can be used at over 40 outdoor food and beverage locations throughout the park (and does not expire), and a bonus $10 card that can be used at the following quick-service restaurants after 4:00 p.m. from December 22, 2019 through January 4, 2020. Restaurants that will accept this bonus card include Restaurantosaurus, Pizzafari and Pizzafari Family-Style Dining, Flame Tree Barbecue, and Satu’li Canteen. In addition, with each $50 card purchased, you will receive two reserved seats for the second showing of Rivers of Light: We are One. Keep in mind, these must be redeemed between December 22, 2019 and January 4, 2020.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom Tasting Sampler will be available through January 4, 2020 at 12:00 p.m. noon E.T. and can be used at Disney’s Animal Kingdom during regular operating hours. When you purchase the sampler, you’ll receive an email for each digital value card. Each email will have a barcode that can be added to your digital wallet on your mobile phone and scanned at most food and beverage locations throughout the park.
Purchase your Disney’s Animal Kingdom Tasting Sampler beginning tomorrow here.
You get an additional $10 to use after 4pm plus with each card purchased you get 2 reserved seats at the River of Light show (second show). So you are getting a $60 value plus reserved seats for the show.
I don’t really understand the purpose of this card. If you are using the card to “purchase” snacks what is the advantage? Why not just purchase them with cash?
