Hi Lily! Welcome to planDisney! It's great to have you stop by!
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge is one of the most unique resorts, not only at Walt Disney World but all around. The beautiful design and architecture of this resort help make it stand out. Let's not forget about the multiple savannas onsite, which are home to over 200 animals and birds. Whether you are staying here or just planning a day visit, you are in for a wonderful treat!
Throughout the years, Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge has offered many complimentary and paid activities for all Guests to enjoy. The culinary food tours were offered daily at both
Boma - Flavors of Africa and Jiko - The Cooking Place. They were typically held in the late afternoon and lasted about 15 minutes. Unfortunately, these tours have not returned to this resort at this time. I would check with the front desk upon arrival to see if they have any up-to-the-minute information.
As for face painting, this experience is not being offered daily at Animal Kingdom Lodge at this time. It's possible that special activities will be set up at times, which may include something similar, but this is by no means a guarantee. However,
face painting is being offered across all four theme parks and at
Disney Springs. Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park has a few locations inside the park where your little ones can get their face painted. If you're planning a visit here, this will be a great place to have it done. If the parks are not in your plans, Disney Springs has a location in the Marketplace to get it done.
Lily, I hope this helps you plan out your visit!
Stop back to planDisney at any time with additional questions!
See ya real soon!
