Meeting Characters in Animal Kingdom

Published March 29, 2020 by mn1055

I really enjoyed talking about the princesses in Epcot last week so for the next couple posts I will share about the characters you can meet in the remaining parks!

Animal Kingdom has a ton of characters to meet! I will “walk” you around the park and tell you all about the characters you’ll run into along the way.

As you enter Discovery Island you will quickly spot Dug and Russel from the movie Up! These two are so much fun to meet! They are always interactive and try to make guests laugh. If you’re lucky you’ll even see Kevin roaming around this area!

Right around the corner is Adventure Outpost. Here you can meet Minnie and Mickey in their safari outfits! This is a fun way to get out of the sun. While you wait to meet the iconic duo you are inside out of the direct sun.

DinoLand U.S.A. is such a fun character spot! First off, you can meet Donald and Daisy Duck! They are also in their safari attire. Some of Donald’s family members are there too. Launchpad McQuack and Scrooge McDuck are also in DinoLand for you to meet. On top of these four characters, Chip, Dale, and Goofy are also in this area. Last, but not least, occasionally Pluto is in DinoLand to meet! (Pretty much, DinoLand U.S.A. is the place to be if you’re meeting characters.)

The last three characters also have their own meeting place but they are a little harder to find. Timon and Rafiki from Lion King have their own character landing spot. They are easier to spot because of the long line that usually accumulates by the meeting area. Our last character is hidden very well! Pocahontas is located on Discovery Island but tucked down a trail. Typically you will be able to see the photographer first before spotting Pocahontas so keep your eyes peeled!
