Only went to Boma Restaurant. Great food and service. Other Disney restaurants are not what they were, but Boma is still great. I will go back again.

Hello πŸ‘‹ we have booked to stay at animal kingdom lodge in November. Virgin package holiday. Can we upgrade to club direct with Disney. If this is possible what would be the cost. We have 2 standard double rooms booked. 4 adults. Thankyou

Christine Lee | Sep 30, 2018

If you already have a savanna view i wouldnt do it. I have never felt that spending a great deal of money on the room at Disney is wise. We just don't stay in the room that much.

Is it for me as a guest of the hotel cheaper to buy fastpass and ticket at the hotel?

Account DS | Sep 30, 2018
Albert Algood | Sep 30, 2018

We normally buy a package deal from the Disney World website. You can score a 20%-25% discount depending on the time of the year. Another advantage of staying at a Disney resort is being able to pick your fast passes 60 days before you arrive. Some of the newer rides have extremely long wait times and it almost essential to book a fast pass.

What activities are available for children at the Disney animal Kingdom lodge

The Emporium | Sep 30, 2018

Officially it's 3pm, but you can use online check-in to let them know if you'll be there early and you can often get into your room before 3. It's not a guarantee but it can happen!

Yvonne Davey | Sep 30, 2018

The animals are behind barriers at animal kingdom. You can walk around and see the different animal, but you are not up close to them. The safari in animal kingdom is really cool and you can see all sorts of different animals.

What rest and bars

Meri Griswold | Sep 30, 2018
Lauren Debronsky | Sep 30, 2018

For quick service dining (food court style) you have the Mara which is absolutely delicious, One of the best quick service options in all of WDW. For table service dining you have Boma which is a buffet with both African and American style food open for Breakfast Lunch and Dinner. There is also Sanaa on the Kidani village side which is another table service meal. It has African/Mediterranean inspired food plus is the only restaurant at AKL that has a view of the Savannah. Finally there is Jiko, which is AKL's signature restaurant. This one is spectacular! It is one of my husband's and my favorite restaurants in all of Disney World. It can be pricey but where else are you going to get to eat African style food of this caliper. They also have a bar/lounge attached to them with the largest selection of South African wines outside of South Africa. For stand alone bars there is Victoria falls which also good and also a poolside bar. Hope this helps!

My sister is a huge runner and she was able to get about a good 2 hour run in and i did see her on some trail leading away from the lodge. So I would assume there is. I don't run, so I am unsure specifically where. I would agree with other reviews to just call and ask.
