    Can we get a military discount for the Wild Africa Trek excursion at Animal Trek?

    Welcome to planDisney, Kristy!

    Thanks for stopping by. We are so happy to meet you and even happier to hear that you have an upcoming visit to Walt Disney World Resort. It’s going to be a wild time, especially with the addition of a Wild Africa Trek.

    During this privately guided trek, you will get to experience plenty of close encounters with exotic African wildlife. You’ll feel like a true VIP during this 3-hour safari adventure, with close glances of giraffes, rhinos, hippos, and maybe even a crocodile or two. I truly cannot wait for you to experience this adventure!

    This experience is part of the Enchanting Extras Collection, so please plan to book 60 days in advance of your arrival. That way, you’ll be booked and ready to add this experience to your vacation agenda. Unfortunately, there isn’t a military offer for this experience, but there are plenty of other military offers that you can take advantage of during your visit. Let's go over them!

    The first are the Disney Military Salute Tickets. These tickets are the perfect way to enjoy time in the theme parks with 4, 5, and 6-day options. The best part is that these tickets do not have to be used consecutively! It’s a fun way to squeeze in more than one visit each year. I’m guilty of doing this. I currently have two days left on my six-day ticket and am hoping to squeeze in a quick visit before everyone heads back to school. It will be the perfect way to end our summer vacation.

    Another way you can save (and splurge on the Wild Africa Trek) is by booking your resort stay with the military offer. You’ll want to call the Walt Disney Resort Reservations line to see if there’s any availability to book your resort stay with this offer. A Cast Member will be more than happy to help you find the perfect resort for your visit. My family will usually use this offer with a stay at any of the All-Star Resorts and use our savings towards fun new experiences like the one you are currently interested in booking. The last Enchanting Extra we enjoyed was the fishing excursion, and it’s become a core memory since. 

    Kristy, I hope this helps answer your question. Have a great visit, and if there’s anything else we can help with, you know where to find us!

    Thank you for all you do, from my military family to yours!
