    Is it still the case that the window for Up Close with dinosaurs starts 60-days from check in if you are staying at a disney resort?

    Hello Duncan, 

    Thank you for visiting planDisney! We are thrilled you've stopped by with your Walt Disney World Resort planning question. Let's get to it!

    I am going to assume that you mean the majestic rhinoceroses from Up Close with Rhinos found at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. They're a bit less roaring and a bit more "I am going to lay here and munch on some grass while you snap a selfie," but still very impressive. While rhinos might not be as “dino-mite” as their prehistoric cousins, they’re still fascinating and this tour will not only give you a backstage view of these amazing creatures but also give you insights into their diets, behavior and life out in the wild.

    You are correct, Guests with a valid Disney Resort Hotel Reservation may begin making reservations for your entire length of stay (for up to a 10-night stay) up to 60 days in advance of your arrival. It says the reservations open up at about 6:00 AM, but I have seen them sometimes available even before then. If you're a night owl like me, you may even log in before bed just to check for some extra pixie dust. Since the tour is only available once per day, it does book up quickly, so you may have the best luck if you look for later in your vacation at the 60-day mark. Be sure to look at the rest of the experiences available from the Enchanting Extras Collection as there are some other great ones, too!

    Have a wonderful trip, Duncan! If there is anything else we are able to help you with, please let us know.

    Magical Wishes,

    Lauren
