Most people make a beeline for Africa at rope drop every morning. It is here that you will find the Kilimangaro Safaris, a trip through 110 acres of African savanna that has quickly become Animal Kingdom’s signature attraction. After the safari you can walk along the Pagani Forest Exploration Trail, where you can see African birds, naked mole rats and a troop of gorillas. One of the highlights of this tour is where you get an underwater view of bathing hippos.
Africa is also where you can catch the Wildlife Express to The Conservation Station, where visitors can learn about the preservation of wildlife and their habitat.
You enter Africa through the village of Harambe, which means 'coming together' in Swahili. There are several shops and restaurants in this area including the upscale Tusker House Restaurant. 13 Zulu artisans were Harambe is a good place to have a light lunch or a snack because of the numerous vendors and eateries.
