Sense of Africa is a new tour offered at Walt Disney World Resort

Sense of Africa at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge is a 3.5-hour-long breakfast and tour. It is designed to immerse guests in the richness, culture and history of this African-inspired resort and give a backstage peek at the care, feeding, well-being and social interactions of the resident animals.

A typical tour begins with a unique twist on breakfast at Boma—Flavors of Africa, followed by encounters with animals such as okapi, giraffe, ostriches and red river hogs. Sense of Africa is a feast for all five senses - and don't worry, you won't be eating any of the animals on the tour.
