Jambo, Jennifer!
I'm thrilled to welcome you to planDisney and so excited to hear you'll be experiencing
Caring for Giants during your visit to Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. I enjoyed this
Enchanting Extra with my daughter a few years back, and we loved our behind-the-scenes look at the park's beautiful African elephants.
I have an international trip of my own this month, so I definitely understand wanting to keep your travel documents secure during your visit. I reached out to a Cast Member who indicated that it is recommended to have the physical document present for whoever booked the tour. My fellow
panelist Lynne shared that she uses her Canadian driver's license as ID in the parks, so you might be fine to keep your passport stored in your resort room's safe and just bring your UK driver's license. I do recommend keeping some type of photo ID with you throughout your visit in the event of an emergency or other unforeseen circumstance.
Once you've checked in at the Curiosity Animal Tours kiosk and signed any necessary waivers, you'll be on your way. Our small group was directed toward transportation, and after a quick backstage drive, we walked over to watch these majestic creatures snack, learn some fun facts, and interact with knowledgeable Cast Members in an exclusive "backstage" viewing area. Don't be afraid to ask questions and remember to snap lots of photos once your guide gives you the ok. When your adventure is complete, don't miss the chance to ride
Kilimanjaro Safaris for a different perspective of the herd. Trying to spot
Corra, the baby elephant, is always my favorite safari task.
Jennifer, I hope this helps. Please come back and see us again with any additional questions. We're always happy to help!
Magic and memories,
Amy
