I Go To Disney World Every Week & These Are The BEST Things In Disney's Animal Kingdom

I'm lucky enough to go to Disney World for my job every single week -- usually multiple times. Because of this, I have my all-time favorites -- and least favorites in the theme parks. And today I'm sharing them all with you!
Come with me (Molly!) to my FAVORITE park, Disney's Animal Kingdom, as I reveal the best rides, eats, and entertainment. But there's a twist -- I can only pick one thing for each land, which makes for some very tricky decisions.

At her last job these titles would always say “I go to Disney every day…” and now it’s “I go to Disney every week…” We love work-life balance! 👏👏 Here for the ✨personal growth✨

[@uopdrspy]

I'm going to guess she works even more now, owning her own company, than she did back then. It's just not every single day of her life in disney world. Definitely personal growth still, just a different type!

[@clairep3688]

@@uopdrspy Idk about that, for her past job I think she was also writing articles and creating social media posts, she said before that for party nights, openings, media previews, etc. she was running around taking pictures of everything, filming clips for multiple videos at once, getting info for blog posts and articles too. It might be more, or it might be less now. The best part though is that she’s her own boss now, she can choose how to best balance everything. Here for the growth! Edit: Also even if it is the same or more hours of work, commuting every day is a huge time suck that makes it difficult to balance. Doing more work from home is always better!

[@munchichi02]

I’m bored so I started watching 80% of the Disney/Universal/Orlando reactors. I judged on the criteria of Personality, excitement level (for what the are doing), knowledge and critiques. Mammoth Club is the best of all. You have all the criteria hands down. Especially personality and enthusiasm. And who seems to know more about the parks than Molly.

[@Alicia19652]

I would love to see Alan and Max both do this! Would be interesting to see if you all have the same favorites for everything or not.

[@PrincessMeggala0913]

I was going to say this too! Love to see the boys’ favs too!

[@lynns3868]

I love all Mammoth Club videos, but especially like this one for giving a PSA about not bothering the animals. I work at a conservation place and we have to tell guests this constantly. Too many don't know. Thank you!

[@GLJosh]

Agreed, we were in the petting area and most if the animals were sleeping. A few people still wanted to pet them the CM had to keep telling them "would you want someone to pet you while you are sleeping?"

[@Ali_OT7]

Our local zoo has had enough and finally put signs up with a phone number that one can call for a zookeeper if a guest is bothering the animals. We go every week and thankfully we've never needed to use it but after years of watching people aggravate the animals I'm really glad it's there.

[@bethsanborn79]

My favorite part of this whole video was Molly circling places on the map with a tube of liquid lipstick 🤣

[@rachelaldridge8495]

Came here to say the same!! Haha. I laughed out loud!

[@AG-is8rk]

Yup she forgot to bring a marker so she reached into her purse! Love the resourcefulness!

[@brandonvieira8114]

I tried cheeseburger pods on my recent trip based on your recommendation and confirm they are very yummy. Also look forward to Mollys Least Favourite Things video where you just say Kali River Rapids and then leave 😂

[@ladonnaburk4020]

I dream of riding a rollercoaster and hear Molly laughing! It would make my day.

[@penelopedeotte6127]

If I ever saw Molly at Disney, I would freak out!

[@AG-is8rk]

I would be star struck!

[@ashisshort]

The little kid shouting “this is sooo fuuun” on dinosaur just made my day!!!!

[@JustinDoesDisney]

My Oasis pick = DiVine. SO good to have her back!! 😁

[@cjfilmlover]

Happy New Year, Molly! Love the video drops this week. Any interest in some, all, or one of the following topics for future videos? -New Perfect Day videos for 4 parks (with Genie+ changes and new rides - it’s been almost a year since your old ones) -Extended Evening Hours tips and tricks -FANTASMIC seating comparisons (dining package vs standby) Thanks so much for considering!!

[@ellene4833]

Festival of the Lion King is hands-down my favorite live performance in all four parks, and definitely my favorite thing in AK. When we took our kids to see it for the first time, we sat in the front row as my son has some cognitive disabilities and was in a wheelchair. During the part of the show when the kids were selected to participate, my daughter got to join the parade. But one of the tumble monkeys came over to crouch next to my son and gave him a maraca to shake along with the music. He helped my son keep the beat, and the way that he was involved in the show even though he couldn't join the parade absolutely melted my heart. I'm a sap who cries at beautiful music as it is, but let me tell you, I was a weepy mess for the rest of that show. I really wish I could thank that tumble monkey for what he did that day for my son.

[@nicolexx13]

I loved seeing you emotional after watching The Festival of the Lion King, knowing I'm not the only one! When I was 5 years old, during my first trip to WDW, I was picked out of the crowd and got to play an instrument while dancing and walking around the stage and performers. Being such a shy kid, it was wild that I had no problem doing that! Such a core memory.. I didn't see the show again until 2020 (right before covid) which was 20 years later. I was so emotional watching the show and especially the part where they pick kids out of the crowd and have them dance and perform. I just remember thinking "This is going to be a core memory for them, like it was for me". Such a beautiful, inspiring and immersive show, I suggest everyone see it at least once in their lifetime!

[@Mammoth_Club]

🥹🥹

[@hubbswifey]

I cried too during it! My son was like mom why are you crying? Couldn’t explain, just did. Was beautiful.

[@marimilholo]

The way Molly talks about Festival of the Lion King… I relate to it so much, it’s always my favorite thing to do at animal kingdom, it makes me cry every time 💚

[@lisacujdik2484]

Molly I’m 64 and I’ve seen the Festival of the Lion King a hundred times and I cry every time and I was crying watching you talk about it❤️❤️❤️

[@MicheleKlinger]

I am so excited to see this series! We all have our own ideas of what must-dos are, but Molly's mix of popular and under-the-radar things is always such a good balance. I will be taking notes for each one of these videos and adding things to my upcoming trip plans (if they're not on there already lol)

[@MattBaileyPlaystheSlots]

Rainforest Cafe lost to an anteater...I bet there are some emergency corporate meetings going on back at HQ over that one.

[@chriscanoga]

DEFINITELY go see Way of Water! While it is a continuation of the original story it is very much so it's own new story as well. And everything is just visually stunning! Just do it already.

[@kates7277]

Gotta be Nomad Lounge, Festival of the Lion King and Everest!

[@day1mediapros]

The Way of Water, much like Disney, is an experience - which makes the 3+ hrs seem like you’re in a story not a movie. I personally think it was well worth seeing and ties everything so far together wonderfully.

[@FamilyGal]

This is a great idea for a series! And of course Mollie has it crammed with useful information, because.... Mollie. Please do this for all of the parks (including Universal).

[@prettiestpigeon]

I tried to guess what Molly would pick & that was a fun game for me. Coffee by the tree & Dinosaur were my correct guesses because I couldn’t remember what else was in Animal Kingdom off the top of my head, but I could remember Molly’s secret coffee spot. I hope Molly does this for Universal too!

[@envyvine]

Yayyy!!!! I love Molly’s animal kingdom videos!!!

[@livingthedream546]

Thank you for your thoughtful courtesy PSAs!! They have all been spot on. Please keep them coming! Hopefully some of these people will learn how to behave in the parks/public.

[@belindacarr7702]

Nomad lounge! I don't get to eat most of the delicious stuff due to my celiacs but the fact that they do the most amazing gluten free churros make this my guaranteed favourite

[@richardamoss5904]

Live for Molly's PSAs! We never really loved Ak until we became AP holders and we could enjoy the hidden gems which often get over-looked as a singe ticket holder. On our first AP visit, we did the Wilderness Explorers adventure and spent very little time doing what we typically do and did lots of things we had never done.

[@amymcgrath4138]

Mammoth family makes me so happy and feeling included in all things that I miss out on not living near the parks! Thank goodness for this hard working fun loving bunch 💛

[@knikkisunshine]

Omg I rode Everest and went to Animal Kingdom for the first time in my life two weeks ago and it was life changing and I’m not being dramatic! I’m a Universal person and it had me rethinking my life 😂😂😂

[@laurafewell2301]

Up early getting ready for our trip on Sunday and our 1st park is Animal Kingdom! So many good ideas from this video combined with all the loads of previous tips and tricks & I am set! Thank you for all you do for us Molly! Happy New Year to everyone !!!!

[@hilarys4889]

I love these types of videos! I think it would be cool to get a Alan and Max version of this as well.

[@kristenkrzepek3577]

Thank you for the new series Mam Fam! Great idea ❤️. As someone who loves all the details that make Disney magical, this is right up my alley. Happy new year Molly, Alan and Max! Love you guys and can’t wait to see more videos! P.S. Max, my husband gave me a Mr. Toads Wild Ride shirt for Christmas. I thought you would appreciate that! 😊

[@ErikaEmody]

The Lion King music makes me cry, too - every time. You aren’t alone.

[@kimymarie596]

A lot of vlogs shade Rainforest Cafe, but for a family of 4, looking for a sit down meal, it’s actually a pretty good value for on property. I wish I hadn’t avoided it for so long cause vloggers didn’t recommend it.

[@neverthatxsimple]

Molly your love for Animal Kingdom has really made me see it in a new light! I can't wait until the next time I visit!

[@maizydaizy22]

Molly, thank you for loving Animal Kingdom so much!🥰 it’s my favorite park😊

[@rachelaldridge8495]

Mine too!!

[@BayinTN]

ROFL -- I was so excited to see the new theme, and then I spied my son, a custodial CM, passing Molly on the path in the Oasis. Doubly awesome! Back to making lists.... 😁

[@alessavillarreal739]

I thought I was the only one who cried while watching that amazing Lion King performance 😭 it truly touches my heart ❤️

[@haleyross3846]

Love this new series and thrilled that you started with my favorite park. And I loved the new Avatar movie. It was stunning. And knowing bits of trivia from the movie, such as the fact that Kate Winslet did all of her own underwater stunts herself, makes the movie more impressive. (Fun fact: Kate Winslet trained to hold her breath for over 7 minutes!)

[@whit-ness]

I know I've watched a lot of Mammoth Club because I was able to correctly predict all of Molly's choices.

[@gertyglockenschpitle7711]

Can't wait to see your favorites at Magic Kingdom and EPCOT! Love your videos!!

[@karolyncampbell7368]

Love your videos, Molly! Great idea for a series. Love Mammoth Club. Though I like seeing what Alan and Max likes, Whenever you have Kronk at the end or speak to Mr. Eal those videos are even better. Thanks for showing your personality and the best, and sometimes least appreciated parts of the parks!

[@suegarrett2934]

I love all the MAM content but this one really beautifully carried me into gorgeous Animal Kingdom - all the skills giving me all the feels , thank you Molly ❤

[@burntphotography1697]

I love this series idea!!!!! Thanks for the videos

[@wendyward4227]

Two of my favorite experiences ever were at AK and were not a theme park ride - one was a starlight safari - a giraffe basically tried to put it ahead into our safari vehicle!! - the other was the backstage with rhino experience where we learned all about rhinos, got up close to a rhino and even got to pet him. Amazing 😊

[@laurencass6449]

Happy New Year Mam Fam 🎉🥳🍾 Thank you for another amazing video MAM!! 💗🧡💙

[@kitsunemetal]

I love doing Avatar flight of Passage, Tusker house for breakfast and walking through the nature trails and i know dinosaur is a little rough but it's so much fun.

[@alexwallace895]

Thanks for another great video! Happy New Year!

[@jessicalyn84]

I can’t wait for the Epcot video!! I go in the middle of January so I’m hoping it comes out in time so I can make notes!!

[@lashezzatron]

A really fun video - thanks so much Molly! Excited to see your faves in all the parks, but please do Hollywood Studios next, & a faves in Disney Springs would be ace too!

[@rootsandwingstravel]

Love this video and I would be excited to watch more from the other Disney parks! Thanks for what you do.

[@lampwick-lounge]

Happy New Year Mammoth Club! 🎉

[@elizabethlicciardone7487]

I am really enjoying your shows. Thank you for all the Disney advice and tricks.

[@matthewbeevors767]

Love love love how happy you seem to be in your videos these days. Huge congrats on your not so new venture and wishing you a HNY

[@kailasmith5363]

I love this series!! I can't wait to see what's next.

[@beverlypeacock8201]

Definitely looking forward to this series.

[@juliemarienau4646]

Animal Kingdom is my favorite park too! I just adore that you give this park so much love.

[@NFossmeyer]

Great series idea, we need an "Alan's Favorite Things" series too.

[@allisonhill9647]

I also agree that Dinosaur is so underrated!! I have always loved that attraction and getting the picture at the end with one of my children or nieces/nephews terrified faces! 😂

[@audreycranford5500]

I agree!! Expedition Everest is my FAVORITE ride in all of Walt Disney World! So thrilling and fun!

[@laurabonner9877]

Way Of Water is AMAZING! Such a beautiful film. You must see it.

[@heathern7356]

I love Animal Kingdom so much it is my favorite park and it was so much fun just getting to hang with Molly at my favorite park it made me so relaxed and happy watching this thank you for the great video!🧡

[@mandibjordan]

Molly, I have that same marker you used on the map. It’s a great one. 😂 I love seeing you just enjoy your day with little tidbits of info and personal observations along the way.

[@tutuluvsminnie7129]

You are great and a joy to watch. I love Dinosaur the best. i also love the scavenger hunts you have done and learning small details about the different areas of the parks - things most people overlook

[@doubletapp22]

I love your videos! I always learn something new when I watch them. Keep up the awesome job.

[@BNWrootbeer]

For whatever reason I had odd deja vu for this video but then I remembered that I watched Molly cover this video on Instagram 🤣

[@amandachaves9527]

I caught up on all the MC videos last night and woke up laughing thinking about the Dr. Strange show reaction that ya'll had when you were at DCA last month...oh boy, that show is something lmao

[@PrincessMeggala0913]

Yay new series! I love favorite things!❤

[@mugglechris]

When I went to AK back in November I totally hung out behind the tree like you suggested. It was so serene and I never saw a single person there. It is now a must do for me. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@NortherlyK]

The discovery island pick was a bit of a shocker, but understandable. Next park: Hollywood Studios?

[@marisa768]

So excited that you started off the series with my favorite park!!!

[@chrisf6477]

Love that you were using your lipstick to circle the map, and ❤ that lipstick color.

[@Sam4G0d]

This was such a fun AND useful video, Molly! :)

[@katelynnfell6062]

We saw Festival of the Lion King because you suggested it and it is my all time favorite thing we did when we went to Disney. Thank you so much!

[@shaunahogsmeade6162]

Super fun idea! I love hearing about the other contenders, too.

[@yourgurlLivy]

This is great!! So glad I found your page

[@barbhawkinson659]

AK is my fav wdw park, Africa my fav wdw land. I can hang out there for hrs. FotLK used to be my fav show at wdw until they cut half of the cast. I hope they bring them all back to put the energy back in the show. Loved seeing all your AK favorites Molly 🥰🦁🦍🦒🦏🐾🦣

[@amandadowning9051]

I am looking forward to seeing this content for the other parks!

[@Mamallina437]

Next week, my husband and I are coming to Disney World from California! We are celebrating our 40th anniversary! We spent part of our honeymoon at Epcot the year it opened!

[@claveauannie]

My son was so scared to ride Everest because he was really scared two days before riding Gardians. So a backward roller coaster was not appealing. I finally convinced him that it was not as fast, that he was gonna love it. It is now his favorite coaster. Thank you Molly for being you, I have been listening your vid for so long that I guess every choice except the Oasis.

[@johnyesberg3602]

Hi Molly, you and the team are doing a funtastic job . Thought on a Vlog - Epcot World Showcase Pavilions . . A highlights off what every pavilion has to offer . Something to entice us to venture into the pavilion instead off just walking round the lagoon . Thanks John ( coming up in July from Australia)

[@jsmith3021]

Your personality is just amazing

[@melekahalepuna913]

Haven't been on KZbin in a while and I'm so happy I found you!!! Telling all my family and friends! Oh...you MUST see Avatar: The Way of Water!!!

[@Mammoth_Club]

Welcome!!

[@mhgpickleball]

Yay for favorite things!

[@gooberjunebug53]

My fiancé proposed to me on that hidden trail next to the tree of life. We discovered it because of all your windows. Truly a beautiful proposal, thanks to you for sharing :)

[@amycate1201]

I’m so excited this is a series!

[@sarahtomkins5105]

Your secret coffee spot was also one of my favourite parts of Animal Kingdom and it was so beautiful so thank you for sharing it with us 😊

[@amyslakehouse]

So excited for this series! ❤

[@karenw717]

Love these tips videos

[@amycate1201]

Love this video!

[@Disney_momlife]

I love this new series!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I would LOVE to be able To say that I get to go to the parks every day/week!! Your living the Disney dream 🏰🚂🎢🏯🎆🥨🥃.

[@andreahash287]

I love flight of Passage!! I’m excited to visit AK in March🎉. I love you videos!!

[@Bella_Honey]

I got to take my high school graduation photos in ur hidden coffee spot 😁 we were able to get a capture your moment before park open and the photopass photographer took us there and it’s so special and beautiful, I love that place 🥹

[@NOLAROCKS92]

Avatar The Way of Water is an amazing movie!!!! Well worth the 3 hour watch. I cried!!!

[@nolanboys]

Loved this video. When you do Epcot, I would love of you broke it up and did Future World as one and World Showcase as a separate one. Would love to see you highlight your favorite thing in each country.

[@tiffanydevincent]

Animal Kingdom is my favorite park and there's just something about Molly having a blast there that just makes my whole day! ♡ I'll be there next week for the first time in 4 years I cannot wait!

[@laurafewell2301]

I will be there too but for my first time ever! Have a great trip!

[@tiffanydevincent]

@@laurafewell2301 you too, you will love it for sure!

[@charc9009]

My favorite park!! Thanks Molly!

[@sarahmays9896]

So just left the theater after watching avatar way of the water for the 3rd time in 2 weeks! My son absolutely is obsessed with it and pandora in animal kingdom is his favorite. I feel like way of the water blew the prequel away! I cried and I don’t often cry at movies! The message of conservation is very much there!

[@samanthamarino9597]

discovered this channel because im a disney newbie going in may... i have to say this lady is hilarious LOL not only am i learning about disney and preparing but im laughing lol

[@Chelsey502]

Yes go see the new Avatar!!! SO good. Thank you for this video! It’s really helpful for planning

[@mkworthy7123]

Awesome news series!! That dramatic reenactment 😆

[@HazelNutz2]

LOL Thank you for the Park Courtesy PSA! We have only been to Disney once (recently and a success thanks to your videos) but wow.. we saw it everywhere. Its like people are too used to the animatronics so lose their mind around a real animal. Fun video thanks again!
