Hello Marc! Welcome to planDisney!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom is an excellent choice! Some of my family’s favorite attractions and dining locations are in that theme park!
I’m happy to help you navigate the way to purchasing a one-day ticket for Disney’s Animal Kingdom! Begin by heading to the
Walt Disney World Resort website. When you arrive at the site, hover your mouse over the heading that states, “Parks & Tickets.” When you do, a dropdown menu will appear. Click on “
Theme Park Tickets.” The theme parks tickets page will appear, and you should click on the blue “Continue” button. When the new page opens, you should be able to select a one-day standard theme park ticket. You will then be prompted to choose the date of your ticket and the park that you wish to visit.
Marc, if you are booking a room and ticket package then there is a two-park ticket minimum as part of the package offered at the Walt Disney World Resort. If you want to book a room and one park ticket, you will have to do that separately. You will book your room-only reservation and then purchase your one theme park ticket. All of which can be done conveniently on the Walt Disney World Resort website.
Now, let’s give you a few PRO TIPS! If you love thrill rides, be sure to visit my family favorites…Avatar – Flight of Passage and Expedition Everest! Also, the Festival of the Lion King Show is great entertainment (in an air-conditioned theater)! It makes for a great sit-down break from the hot savanna sun! Enjoy the music and the show! Finally, be sure to check out Yak and Yeti Restaurant! They have one of my favorite menus in all the Walt Disney World Resort! I like to end my Animal Kingdom day with a ride on Kilimanjaro Safaris. I like this attraction at night as I find the animals (especially the lions) to be a bit more active!
Have a wild visit, Marc!
Happy planning!
