Hello Joanne, and welcome to planDisney!
You are visiting in April, so congratulations are in order! You will have the best time and don’t forget about all the memories you will create! From what I have heard, the
Up Close with Rhinos tour at
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park is a fantastic experience. It is on my “must-do” list for sure.
I know it can be disappointing when you cannot reserve the activities you wish to enjoy, but do not give up hope; there is still a chance. I recommend checking for availability daily to see if an opening becomes available. Also, try changing your scheduled date by a day or two (within your vacation dates) and see if that will yield a different result. If all else fails, you can call (407) 939-1929 and speak with a cast member; perhaps an opening will be available when you need it, and they can help you reserve that space.
We are always here to help you plan your
Walt Disney World Resort vacation; just let us know how we can help.
Have a magical day!
Raquel
