The BEST Animal Kingdom Afternoon: 3 Hours in Disney World

[@sg.prophitt]

Hi this is Safari guide SaraGrace!! Thank you so much for the cast compliment :)) LOVE THIS! #gobarbie

Nothing sums up working with the public like the lady who thought Disney could bring back the dinosaurs. 😂

[@luzmuralles4949]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@alliepie89]

I know there are no stupid questions and I love that lady’s faith in Disney, but that was stupid .

[@juliebuchheit7015]

I love how genuine Molly is. I’m so happy to be able to support her doing what she loves. ❤

[@tlcholistic]

100%! Molly is one of a kind and that’s why we love her so much!

[@KateS1980]

Julie Andrews in DAK be like: 🎼 Handpies and street corn and Dino Bite’s ice creams, Yeti, Safaris, and Banshees on sunbeams. Tree of Life dazzles; Tumble Monkeys have wings. These are a few of my favourite things! 🎶

[@alexandriafrancois]

Love that my brain read this as her singing it

[@TheGoofy1932]

My brain did the same thing. 😂 I wonder if this is one of the side effects of being a Disney Adult.

[@lydscl]

Dino Chip and Dale are the absolute cutest character interaction. We loved the dance party pre-2020 so I'm so so happy that they're back for an actual meet and greet. Hilarious and so stinking cute.

[@lyssar28]

Please share more stories from your time as a cast member! That lady believing Disney could bring back dinosaurs is funny but I'm sure disney could do it too😂

[@LilaKirby]

Since I am German and live in Germany I don’t get to enjoy the parks really often. More like every couple of years if I’m lucky. Animal Kingdom has always been my favorite park of them all with my favorite attraction (Everest). I am so happy that channels like this exist so I can enjoy Disney World from my home. Molly has become such a feel good KZbinr for me ❤ I am truly grateful for this content

[@aliciaharris4721]

5:58 There is an easier way: go to the app and click the map/pin button next to the home button instead of searching. Then click the drop down menu next to wait times and filter the park there. That way you see what characters are out and (even better) where they are if you desperately need a map to function like me 😅

[@amykathleen2005]

Just came to say that

[@paigeywaigey96]

This is what I prefer, too! Good advice.

[@JustinDoesDisney]

Molly, if I didn't know better I would have thought this was a "Favorite Things" video. 😁 Thanks for taking us with you!

[@InfectiousGroovePodcast]

The first 10 seconds of this video is EXACTLY what many of us want / need from Disney. Thank you for this video!

[@Livinginlimbo-b4r]

I’d love to see a video about why Disney is so much more than a theme park. How it’s immersive and that you get so much more than just rides. The performers, the parades, the fireworks, the projections, the characters, the DETAILS. It’s not just a restroom sign that says “ladies”, it’s Elsa. It’s a restaurant that has a phone on the wall where, if you pick it up, there is a recording to listen to. Also, you don’t have to spend anymore than just the ticket price. I believe you can bring your own food and no one is making you buy a souvenir. What other parks have the amount of staff who are informative and friendly? Where else can you get a whole day of wonderment for the price of their tickets? You don’t even have to get a hotel in the park. I’d love a video from you that I can point someone to next time they say that Disney is sooo expensive.

“£+¥_= ]’” ‘]{{}’}\

[@jb7692]

We’d love to see a “best of” Old Fashioneds around the properties!

[@firefly314]

The last time I went to Disney World was 1996 and AK wasn’t there SO I’m going in Feb 2024 and cannot wait to enjoy it. As always, I love the tips to help plan my future trip! 💜

[@beckyj1493]

I so agree with you about the Banshe thing and what is happening to the Avatar when you're not hooked up to the it. The mental gymnastics we do are unappreciated. I thought about this opening day. Thank you for making me laugh! Once again, you prove you're the best. Excellent vlog! Thank you.

[@danaolsen9802]

I always had Animal Kingdom as my absolute favorite park, and it is so underrated. Thank you Molly for giving it so much love in your videos!

[@amysears1829]

Animal Kingdom is my favorite park too!!!

[@loriwilliams8057]

Going back in October & have to stop & get a ice cream sandwich!!!

[@kaylingentry4484]

Idea for a video. See how many different Mickey and/or Minnie outfits you can see in one day. I also fully support your seeing how many characters you can meet video idea. I used to do that on my CP

[@rhondageddis526]

Was waiting for Mollys laugh. She didn’t let me down.

[@chantelletonellato]

OMG! Thank you for showing the Chipminkosauraus meet and greet. I stumbled upon it by accident and it wins as my fav meet and greet ever!

[@erinkennedy3956]

I really like this video, instead of the rushing to complete as much as possible it’s nice to see other ways to do the parks and enjoy the time there.

[@laurad7439]

This, is a great tip, Molly! We are a family of 4 with a son who uses a manual wheelchair due to cerebral palsy. He is not a rollercoaster ride person, obviously prefers the slower rides. Definitely will add the park hopper to do the rides so we don't have to wait. We are coming in March 2024. Thanks so much! You gave so many tips for the My Disney Experience App -- I had no idea what is involved in utilizing that.

[@kassinwonderland22]

Look into getting a disability pass as well. It will help you get front of line access so you won't have to wait in line. Either call disney before your trip or go to guest services

[@Jamoflamo]

Get DAS pass. Go to guest services when you arrive, it’s basically a free fast pass for guests with disabilities. You won’t have to wait in line at all

[@kat-napzzz]

The DAS pass is wonderful. I used it on my last trip as I’m disabled. It also was helpful bc cast members would ask if you need accommodations for certain rides. Like some rides you can ride the wheelchair right on. There’s also special parade and fireworks viewing if needed. You can do an online zoom with Disney before you leave to get the pass. They’ll just ask you about how the disability prevents you from waiting in line. Highly recommend it!

[@ellene4833]

Another voice chiming in to get the DAS for your son if possible. A few years ago people were abusing the system, so they're cracking down by requiring an advance online video chat with the person needing the DAS to ensure there are no shenanigans. (You can get a DAS issued at Guest Services on your first day, but doing the advance online video allows you two pre-issued return times-like how you used to be able to select FastPasses-before you arrive.) The DAS will work for up to 6 people in your party, and it basically puts you in the Lightning Lane queue for any show or attraction with a posted wait time, save for virtual queues and Fancy Rides. We've used DAS several times for my son and it's an absolute game-changer, as we can sit quietly somewhere instead of being corralled in a 60-plus-minute queue. Highly recommended for families or people with additional needs.

[@SimplelilSteph]

I laughed so hard out loud at the body link part with the avatar just hanging limply on the back of the banshee lol my cat ran up to me very concerned for my well being

[@cindyfan91]

Now let’s see how much can be done at the other 3 parks in the last 3-4 hours! This is great for an arrival day! Now I’m thinking for my arrival day, to hit AK first till 7, then hop to Epcot for the fireworks. 👍😉

[@patneverisky459]

I love Chip and Dale, it’s on the list for my next visit in October. Molly, thank you for all you do❤!

[@to4196]

My sister and I went to Animal Kingdom in 2020. No chipmunkasaurus. Came back in 2022. We ran like 5 year olds to see them and it was worth it!❤

[@heavenlylight317]

I love them in them so much in their outfits

[@themeparkamusement2214]

Molly you are likely the most knowledgeable Disney Vlogger out there. You have come a long way from working on the Magic Kingdom trains. Congratulations on your career success. LOL! Real Dinosaurs! I wish my guest experiences were that entertaining.

[@therealtylermartin]

Chipmunkasaurus are the best characters on property! 💜💚💙

[@amysinclair4901]

How cute are Chip & Dale as dinosaurs?! 😍 Yay to new videos! I only discovered you a few months ago, after seeing Mammoth Club being recommended in a Facebook group, and I’m hooked! 🙈 I’ve been back through and pretty much watch all of the Mammoth Club videos now.

[@hairdresser1300]

WoW someone is listening to those of us that are hating on the idea of Genie Plus. Also,thank you for you

[@pixiedustmom]

Ugh Chip and Dale are adorable!

[@bellemoon1008]

Awww! We truly love you too, Molly!! ❤❤❤

[@emilyowens6778]

I loved the vibe of this!! I also get excited about low key things at WDW ❤

[@mollymiller7049]

I’d love to see a video on ranking the queues in each park!!

[@catherineholmes3839]

I love this Molly! So nice to have a luxuriating afternoon. One of the reasons I love Mammoth Club is that you have such good ideas for different ways to enjoy the parks. ❤

[@dreamocracy3]

"if anyone could bring Dinosaurs back it would be Disney" 😆 She might be overestimating the Disney magic lol I love these kinds of videos, Molly! I can't wait to luxuriate at Animal Kingdom 😌

[@disneynutd1609]

Love Animal Kingdom but usually go in the morning. I will try late afternoon next time ..thanks Molly 💐

[@MicheleKlinger]

There’s nothing like luxuriating in Animal Kingdom

[@hairdresser1300]

My favorite

[@PoppaSquat-et3qp]

The theming is the best in the world right after Tokyo Disney Sea

[@AlpineKindOfMind]

We love you too Molly! Keep doing what you’re doing 🩷🧡🩵

[@blugreen123]

I was just thinking that I'd like you to do a video like this! You read my mind. Lol

[@MaggieLong-n2k]

I’ve been binge watching your videos and I love them so much. You asked for what videos we’d like to see and I’d vote for more merch videos going into theme park merch shops. Definitely would like more ‘winner pays’ merch shopping spree vids. Also just in general anything Harry Potter. Did you ever do a video ranking the Harry Potter candy? You said that you planned to, but I don’t think you ever did. Have you ever considered coming to the UK to do the Harry Potter studio tour? It’s amazing. You could also go to the Harry Potter shop at Kings Cross station and visit some of the places that scenes in Harry Potter were filmed such as New College in Oxford University which has the tree that Draco Malfoy was sitting in when he ate that apple. I get that you probably aren’t going to come here just for Harry Potter! Or visiting Disneyland Paris?

[@there_u_r_perry]

Thank you for bringing the Magic to us!❤

[@kyrabresnahan8215]

I read in a guidebook once that Dinoland has notes scattered around it from the Dino Institute folks, maybe that’s what the Dr. Woo note is?

[@CaliforniaGirl49]

I’m very glad to see this! I’m starting in photopass at AK later this month and I’m so excited!! I’d be so honored to take photos of such enthusiastic guests!

[@hollyh357]

Thanks for your tips. I’ve been lucky enough to enjoy Disney Parks several times over the years, but watching your videos I’ve realized that I had missed so many fun gems at the parks and look forward to experiencing them on my next upcoming trip in October. Thank you for all you do!

[@keithlurvey7358]

This club is the best club. Very informative and exactly what you need to watch before the trip of your life

[@PrincessMeggala0913]

Great video as always! I want that ice cream sandwich now......haha

[@alexandriafrancois]

I can’t wait I’ll be there in a few days for our yearly anniversary trip, (we honeymooned at Disney), Ty to mammoth club for helping -rep and get my Disney fix till then!

[@Mis_Madius89]

Love love love everything about Mammoth Club! When I feel like I need a fix, watch a video. When I’m planning a trip, watch a video. It’s a Tuesday, watch a video! 😂 My hubby’s favorite park is Animal Kingdom. It’s a close second to Hollywood Studios for me! 💕

[@nancycarineo9348]

I LOVE Animal Kingdom in the afternoons!!! It's so nice to explore the park after most of the crowds are gone❤

[@haley__1316]

My trip in May, our last park was animal kingdom. One of the last things we got to do was meet Chip and Dale in their super cute Dino outfits! It was such a memorable moment and they were so fun to interact with. Chip and Dale spent so much time with us and we are all adults who don’t usually do character meet and greets. It was such a great way to close out the trip!

[@salishseaquest7952]

Molly, Thanks for the heartfelt message of Gratitude. You make it so worthwhile to watch your videos. You, being You, warms hearts. Though I doubt that I will be making a trip to Florida soon, it is so much fun to join you as you give us your best every time.

[@findingdisney9016]

Love you too Molly/Mammoth Club!! I so enjoy what you guys do!! I live in Michigan and I am not to get to the parks very often so watching these videos just brings me so much joy!

[@mugglechris]

I live in California so the time change can be a bit much for me. I always hit up the parks in the afternoon so I love these kind of videos. I will stack LL and close out parks. These videos help navigate this and make sleeping in possible and still have a full park day.

[@maryjesch8841]

I loved this. Could you do laid-back afternoon/evening trips to the other parks? This was so helpful. It reminds me of how we used to do the parks before Genie +. So incredibly enjoyable. Thank you so much, Molly. XO

[@amyabrey2504]

Thanks to KZbin videos like yours, Animal Kingdom has become, pretty much, my favorite park. Magic kingdom will always hold a special place in my heart, but animal kingdom is special in its own way.

[@AmyWhiteman-n6q]

Love watching your videos. Would love to see a video about things to do on the boardwalk. Evening and day time entertainment! X

[@laurafewell2301]

Love this video. This is my favorite park - even though I have only been to WDW once! Chip & Dale are so adorable! I love that each video you teach us something new! I am now off to ponder on the whole Avatar thing! And a big thank you for all you all do for us!

[@dianesteffens493]

I loved this video so much. You touched on all the simple reasons why animal kingdom is my favorite park. Thank you!

[@tjweddington2311]

Your intro is exactly what I’m doing soon. I cannot wait to go to Animal Kingdom. Never used Genie+ and don’t plan too.

[@shawniejansen6881]

Love this video! Can you also show how to luxuriate at the magic kingdom since that is a busy park?

[@skinewyork]

LOVE this video. Always helpful for you to show us how to be more present while in the parks instead of constantly on the go.

[@MollyFitzBrown]

Such a fun afternoon! Love the Chipmunk-o-sauruses! I miss Primeval Whirl, cool you worked it!

[@gammietammy]

Generally we rope drop, due to the heat, but in November this year we will be going later in the afternoon. Thank you. The ending....I'm not crying. Your crying. I truly felt your sincere gratitude. Such a blessing.

[@jacitucci]

I just want to say I appreciate you guys not posting your MNSSHP at the same time as every other vlogger. Thanks for always keeping things refreshing and interesting!

[@pamelascott2849]

Thank you for sharing the parks with us. Many times the escape to the park with you is the luxuriating we need 😊

[@BudgetVillain]

Learn something new everyday, meeting Dino Chip and Dale added to my must do’s. Thanks Molly!

[@deannherr258]

Thank for you for all you do Molly! You bring happiness and magical to my day! Have a wonderful day from Nebraska!

[@AbbyElizabeth03]

I’d love to see a video on fun things to do/things really worth the money on a Disney World honeymoon! ❤

[@vacationmode6286]

disney does such a good job at theming each ride -- every time I see the dinosaur que it makes me feel like I am walking through our local science museum - very authentic! I can't wait to go back to animal kingdom.

[@louisebullivant768]

Great tips for a luxuriating & chilled afternoon / evening in the park - will definitely be trying this on our next visit coming up soon. Thank you 🤗 Would love to see your recommendations for similar relaxing afternoons / evening in the other parks whilst still getting to do some must-dos. Thanks again💖

[@mitchmedway4183]

Been watching a few vids and this was by far my favourite. Great tips ahead of my visit

[@lovestodive1879]

I agree, I love to hop into AK after I've gone back to my room and had a little rest (maybe a nap). I sometimes go the afternoon before my park reservation day and can always get 2 or 3 rides done and a stop at Nomad Lounge. Then the next day on my reservation day, I don't have to get there at rope drop and can just go slow, watch shows, walk the trails and catch the few rides I missed. I've been known to hop into AK 2 or 3 different afternoons during a trip just because it is so relaxing.

[@allisonreimers9411]

I went to Animal Kingdom for the first time in February 2021. I was in the park as the sun was setting. It was glorious. Most things were still all locked down, but then and there, I felt so free and at peace.

[@andreahass4944]

Such a cute video! ❤ I love her shirt too! Molly just makes my day so much better.

[@TheGoofy1932]

We love an AK afternoon/evening. It clears way out and starts to cool down (a bit) which is nice since it's Always hotter and more humid 🔥 in this park so it feels like only 10 degrees hotter instead of the usual 50.

[@jasonlight5523]

What a great vlog...One of the best we have seen....Great job!!!

[@dankind64]

I haven't done AK at night in a few years. I'll need to give this a try!

[@barbehrhart]

Thank you Molly, Alan, and Max for doing what you do! Your content hits the mark every time. PS favorite park is Epcot followed extremely closely by Animal Kingdom.

[@amandachaves9527]

I love hese low-key videos with the underrated spots. I was able to execute my dream trip because of all the cool insider knowledge you share. Highlights were the nomad lounge and pics from behind the Tree of life by the river secret spot. Thanks again for your hard work and for sharing.

[@susancollins1674]

We love you too, Molly 😊

[@rhondageddis526]

Love Nomad lounge. Great beverages and food.

[@lindarumbelow3166]

We love you, Molly!!

[@nikkim449]

Animal Kingdom is my favorite park too. I'm going to take this advice when I visit solo next month for a mostly resort stay and just do Animal Kingdom one afternoon.

[@shelleysimpson3154]

We love you too Molly! ❤❤❤

[@SpookyDisnerd13]

We loved Animal Kingdom so much! One of our favorite parks! We spent a full day, and will every time!! 💜🖤

[@tinkersprout]

Love the ears in this video!!

[@barbsmith7755]

Love your hair!

[@BLutetia]

I was waiting for not-Genie videos!!! Thank you 😍

[@SusanCatherine]

"where they take two freshly baked cookies, SHOVE some ice cream in there" 😂

[@alisonhall2412]

AK & MK are my favorite parks!! I would love to live close enough to be able to relax more & not feel like I'm trying to get the most out of every trip, if that makes sense. Your gratitude is humbling & one of the many reasons I love watching your content ❤

[@armita611]

On all of my trips to Disney World, Animal Kingdom is the park I had the most fun in. Like Molly says, it can be a really relaxed vibe if you want it to be. It's the park I always look forward to the most on return trips though Epcot might take that on my next return trip since it's added two rides since I've been there.

[@sarahjk1]

luxuriating word count = 100 😄

[@heavenlylight317]

This video makes me so happy about my plan to do DAK in the afternoon on my arrival day!

[@diannesmothers2171]

Oh wow....cant wait for Chip and Dale...now on our must do in December!! And street corn..and frozen nanas...and Kevin..😊

[@joc2567]

Thank you for this idea. It was a great one! Xxx

[@lisagimblett8646]

What a great plan for your arrival day or to spend at the resort and then head to AK for the latter part of the day. And like you, AK is my favourite park and Everest is my favourite ride.

[@1DawnMarie1]

Just thinking about Animal Kingdom in the afternoon in August makes me feel sweaty!

[@jowray5837]

Thank you for sharing all the things with us! I can't wait to get back to the parks and experience some of the things you've recommended! December can't come soon enough! ♥

[@dinane]

We love animal kingdom so much we planned two AK days for our next trip! So excited to see chipmunkasaurus, they weren’t back yet when we went last. And just love the vibe of AK after 2.
