Disney’s Animal Kingdom Entertainment
Kilimanjaro Safaris
As we were waiting in line for the Kilimanjaro Safaris for 25 minutes, Cast Members announced prior to boarding that there were some delays at the attraction. An animal was blocking the pathway, which eventually led to Kilimanjaro Safaris closing temporarily. As the line was cleared out, Cast Members gave everyone FastPasses to return later.

Although there wasn’t much information about the animal or the ride closures, Kilimanjaro Safaris did reopen after noon as guests with the FastPasses were prioritized for boarding.

Mickey, Minnie, and Pluto were coasting through the waterways of Animal Kingdom in their adorable safari get-ups! They were just as happy to see us as we were happy to be in the park!
