My family spent the day at Animal Kingdom in Disney World. My kids love the park and we rode three times. We ate one meal with characters, then we ate the rest of the day. I am often asked if Animal Kingdom is really a must-do at Disney World. My family loves the park. It is the favorite of at least half of my crew. I wanted to show you everything my family did at the park and what it cost. We took advantage of the early entry hours offered for guests staying at Disney resorts because we were excited to spend the day at Animal Kingdom. We were on the bus at 7 a.m. after Animal Kingdom opened for us at 7:30 a.m. We were waiting in line at 7:21 a.m. to get our tickets. It was fun to go to the park when the sun was not yet up. The single-day tickets for my family of four cost about $600. As soon as we entered, we walked to the Flight of Passage along with the rest of the crowd. We only waited 20 minutes for the ride because we got there quickly. My family&s favorite ride in all of Disney World is called Expedition Everest, and we walked right on it. It was time for breakfast after we had ridden two of our top priority rides. Donald, Daisy, Goofy, and Mickey can be seen at the table-service dining location at the Africa section of the breakfast reservation. The characters are dancing and taking selfies. The food is family-style with an abundance of pastries, fruit and yogurt, eggs, waffles, bacon, sausage, breakfast potatoes, and chicken-and-egg curry with rice. Coffee and juice were also available. The total cost of the breakfast was $174. We went to ride Dinosaur with our bellies full. We waited about 20 minutes, got a scare, and went to the Boneyard play area to run off some energy. The kids were hungry again, so we stopped for a Trilo-Bites ice-cream treat, which the boys said was delicious. The treats cost $11. It was time to go back to Everest. The Disney KiteTails performance was on the way. In the early afternoon heat my boys said it was worth it and even begged to go again, but there was a 30-minute wait for the ride. We went to Kali River Rapids to cool off. We waited for almost an hour for the water ride, which my boys said was not worth it. They still liked getting soaked. We were ready for a break from the sun and a late lunch. Flame Tree Barbecue is our favorite quick-service location. Our food was ready when we arrived. We found a shady spot to sit and split two pulled-pork sandwiches and an order of onion rings among the four of us, which was plenty of food. Instead of buying bottled water, we always buy cups of it for free, which saves money. Our lunch only cost $33 because we shared it. We went to see "It's Tough to be a Bug" inside the Tree of Life after lunch. The slapstick comedy was enjoyable for my boys. After the show ended, the boys begged to ride Everest again, so we headed back to the park. The wait was only 20 minutes, and I was able to exercise my vocal cords. We were going to go back to the resort pool to cool off. On our way out of the park, we stopped at Joffrey's for two cold-brew coffees and two smoothies, which cost $21 with our Disney Visa discount. The memories of our day at Animal Kingdom were already filling our hearts when we headed to the bus. The entire day cost us about $800. The original article can be found on Insider.
