    I want to book the Up Close with Rhinos event for 5th March 2026 however there does not seem to be any button to do this.

    Hi Janet,

    Welcome to planDisney! Your Walt Disney World vacation is just around the corner, and I know you are eager to get all your plans in order.

    I have not done the Up Close with Rhinos tour personally, but I have heard from close friends that it and the Caring for Giants experience with the African elephants at Disney's Animal Kingdom are both mind-blowing. (I have done the more extensive Wild Africa Trek and highly recommend that.)

    The Up Close with Rhinos experience can be booked up to 60 days in advance. On the tour's web page, you should see a button that says "Check Available Dates" that will lead you to a calendar. You can click on a single date or choose a date range by holding the Shift key as you click on the dates. Please note that this tour is extremely popular and often sells out quickly. And be aware that you will need a valid ticket for admission to Animal Kingdom in addition to the reservation for the tour.

    If you are looking for other ways to add even more magic to your Walt Disney World vacation, you may want to check out the full list of Enchanting Extras. 

    Good luck with the rest of your planning, Janet. And please let us know if we can answer any other questions for you before your arrival. 

    Enjoy,

    Wilma
