    Good Points: Disney quality
    Friendly staff
    Superb attention to detail
    Very varied environment
    Expedition Everest ride
    Dinoland U.S.A.


    Bad Points: Expensive (tickets)
    Not as well themed as other Disney parks, but it still makes UK parks pale in comparison
    Tarzan Rocks (Tarzan puts kids to sleep)
    Can get VERY hot and humid, and there are long walks between attractions


    General comments: Disney's Animal Kingdom is the newest of Disney's parks in Orlando, and as such it is really just finding its feet. Having said that, Disney parks are a whole ten times better than your usual theme park fodder and the attention.

    To a certain degree Animal Kingdom is an attempt to steal some of the limelight and customers from Busch Gardens, Tampa, and a lot of the themes are very similar. It's a terrific park with lots to see and do. However, its sheer size should be taken into account should you have small children, or if it's a particularly hot and humid day. The large numbers of trees and so forth only seem to increase the heat. My advice on such days, should you have children, is to head over to Dinoland U.S.A. There are lots of things to do, and the area is cooled by huge fans. You may even persuade them to ride Dinosaur (a Jurassic Park clone ride if there ever was one).

    Latest attraction is Expedition Everest. It's hugely popular at present and justifiably so. It's one of the best rides in Florida and should not be missed.

    The main theme of Animal Kingdom is education, with thrills (with the two exceptions above) put on something of a back burner. Why not get park hopper tickets and spend half a day here? It's certainly worth the visit.
