Can anyone give me an overall review of Animal Kingdom. We are going with our 15 year old daughter in March. She is at the age where she is more into things like Spiderman The Ride, Water flume rides etc. Will we be disappointed in AK. Thanks Kato

If your looking for rides then yes. If you see the park for what it is then you will have a great. I think its the best park that Disney have built. What they have done there is simply amazing. Take time to talk with CM's about the animals and habitat.
It does have some rides and great shows. Thrill park it is not..

We visited Animal Kingdom 2 weeks ago, Due to us being tired and it being a hot day
we only managed about 3 hours there before we decided to call it a day. From what we
saw it is a well layed out park, with lots of information on the animals and our kids
loved it. One chap there spent ages telling Emily all about the animals etc. We did
manage to see the Lion King show before we headed off home - fantastic show.
We are going to go back next year and this park is top of our list, It looked a great
,would suggest getting there as early as poss before it gets too hot, then the
animals will be out.

As highlighted above AK is a great park, it is well laid out and there is plenty to do for all ages.
In truth it is more relaxing than the other parks and a 4 - 6 hour visit should give you enough time to go on most rides that you and your family would wish to see.
There are a couple of good rides that your daughter ( and you )will no doubt enjoy, AK is not just for the youngsters / animal lovers - if you have the time then it is well worth a visit.

My teenage daughters (now 18 and almost 15) no longer want to visit AK. We have been twice and both times they were disappointed - might have been because both times was in height of summer so animals likely to be asleep. They enjoy Sea World and Busch Gardens much more, but their favourite park is Islands of Adventure which (weather permitting!) they could go to every day.
We love Animal Kingdom - I adore the atmospheric music as you enter the park and just love the intimacy and closeness of the park.
Best rides for us are Kilimanjaro Safaris (best done as soon as you get there - before the animals become sleepy), Kali River Rapids (prepare for a soaking) and Dinosaur (we saw grown men coming out of there looking scared ).
I love AK - I like just wandering around - it is one of the best Disney parks for just chilling out. The Tiger area is particularly great for this.
Although the rest of my family (boys aged 10 and 8 on last trip) quite enjoy it they wouldn't go out of their way to visit it apart from I always insist on at least one visit. Not enough rides or excitement crammed into a small space for them - still they love Dinosaur and that new whirly type ride (DH doesn't like it though as he has a bad back!!)
On a hot day you can't beat the river rapids (anyone who doesn't want to get wet should ride with me - time after time I am soaking and the only wet person in the raft!!!! - but I love it)

Animal Kingdom was probably the park I was least looking forward to visiting on our recent holiday. I thought it was a most relaxed and enjoyable visit, and was one of the highlights of the holiday.[8D]
Funny enough I sort of agree, we had a 4 park hopper ticket and only went to AK because we
had been to the others, I was very surprised how good it was

NOt that I dont like the ANimal Kingdom I think its great but Disney should have made the main paths much larger very crowded specially in the summer especially with the parade my advice is get out of there before the parade or be on a ride that takes really long before it ends like the lion king or tarzan show the parade isent worth seeing when the parade goes on it will be hell trying to maneuver your family to find the exit of the park becaose of all the road blcoks for the parade. After 4 theme parks you think Disney would have perfected this how large they make the paths Epcot has the best layout.
