    Does everyone in my party have to have their tickets purchased for animal kingdom prior to me making reservations for Savor the Savannah for the group?

    Welcome to planDisney, Karen. Adventure is out there!

    Planning a special experience like Savor the Savanna at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park is such a fun way to make your trip extra memorable. The idea of dining whilst taking in the sights of giraffes, zebras, and other beautiful animals is truly unique. I mean, a private safari without having to travel to another continent is next-level enchantment. It's the kind of experience that makes lasting memories for your whole party.

    Here’s the key info: everyone in your group must have a valid park ticket for Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park on the day of your tour. Savor the Savanna itself is a separately priced experience, so park tickets aren't included. This means you'll want to purchase tickets for all members before the day of your tour. Having said that, whether you decide to purchase your tickets before or after booking your tour is up to you. You'll be glad to know that I confirmed this with a Cast Member.

    To give yourself the best chance at securing a spot, book as early as possible, Karen. Reservations open 60 days in advance, and availability is limited to just 12 guests per tour. You'll want to arrive at least 15 minutes early for check-in at the Curiosity Animal Tours kiosk near Kilimanjaro Safaris. Planning ahead not only secures your spot but also gives you more time to relax and enjoy the beauty of the savanna with your party.

    Enjoy every magical moment, Karen. Thanks for choosing to be our Guest.
