    Hi, if we are not guests of Animal kindom lodge, are we still able to see the animals if we visit the resort? thank you!

    There is a wonderful area in the lobby of the Animal Kingdom Lodge resort where you can look upon the savannah area where many animals graze and roam.  This is a four story observation window and is just one of many places you can observe the 30 plus acres without being a resort guest.  You can walk out onto the Sunset Overlook which is the elevated viewing area of Arusha Rock and enjoy the roaming animals.

    On the ground level there is a wonderful pathway that leads to more viewing around and just beyond Arusha Rock.  This is where you can often find a cast member who will help identify and spot the animals.  Many of these cast members are originally from Africa and have wonderful stories to tell so make sure you have the extra time when visiting the Animal Kingdom Lodge
