Hiya, Barbara! Thank you so much for bringing your question to
planDisney. I'm thrilled you're planning a visit to Sanaa! It's one of the most unique and flavorful restaurants at
Walt Disney World Resort, and the opportunity to enjoy your meal while watching the animals roam the savanna at
Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas – Kidani Village is truly unforgettable. Getting there from Shades of Green is absolutely doable, and you have a few options depending on what works best for your family.
If you're hoping to keep things simple and budget-friendly, the easiest way is to use the Shades of Green shuttle service. Just hop on a shuttle headed to any of the four theme parks or
Disney Springs, whichever fits best with your timing. Once you arrive, follow the signs to the Disney bus transportation area. Every transportation hub has clearly marked stops, and you'll find a bus that goes directly to Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge. Just be sure to hop off the bus at Kidani Village, not Jambo House, since that's exactly where
Sanaa is located.
If you prefer a faster or more direct option, you're absolutely welcome to use a rideshare service like Uber or Lyft. They can pick you up right at Shades of Green and drop you off at the entrance to Kidani Village with no transfers required. Another wonderful choice, especially if you want a bit of extra Disney magic, is to book a
Minnie Van through the Lyft app. Minnie Vans are operated by Disney Cast Members, and they offer spacious, comfortable rides paired with the charm of those iconic red-and-white polka dots.
I hope this helps, Barbara! If you have any other questions, you know just where to find us. We're always available and more than happy to help here at planDisney!
Warm hugs,
Ana Paula
