Animal Kingdom One-Day Touring Plan for Parents with Small Children

Park: Disney's Animal Kingdom
Plan Summary: This plan is designed for parents of children ages 3 to 8 who wish to see the very best age-appropriate attractions in the Animal Kingdom. Every attraction has a rating of at least 3.5 stars (out of five) from preschool and grade-school children surveyed by The Unofficial Guide. Special advice is provided for touring the park with small children, including restaurant recommendations. The plan keeps walking and backtracking to a minimum. Here are our FastPass+ recommendations for this plan: Avatar: Flight of Passage at 9:30 a.m. Meet Disney Pals at Adventurers Outpost at 11 a.m. Kilimanjaro Safaris at 5 p.m. . Look for a day-of Rivers of Light FastPass+ after experiencing Kilimanjaro Safaris.
Additional Notes: If time and energy permit, see Pandora after dark to experience its visual effects. This plan can accommodate almost any set of FastPass+ reservation times. Simply add your FastPass+ reservation information below in the section titled "Fastpass+ Options".
