Shopping in Disney's Animal Kingdom
Animal Kingdom has several interesting shops. Of course,
nature and wildlife will take center stage for most of them. Some
specific shops worth a visit:
On Discovery Island (formerly Safari Village)...
-
Island Mercantile (Animal Kingdom themed merchandise,
stuffed toys)
-
Disney Outfitters (adult apparel, jewelry, watches)
-
Beastly Bazaar (miscellaneous merchandise and a lot
of T-shirts)
-
Creature Comforts (clothing and toys for the younger
set)
In Africa (Harambe)...
In Dinoland USA...
In Rafiki's Planet Watch (formerly Conservation Station)
Whatever you do, take some time and visit these shops. Like
the other Disney theme parks, Animal Kingdom will have goods that are
themed to the park -- and to the specific area where the store is located.
You're certain to find many unique and interesting items...even if you
choose to not buy any.
Resort Delivery
Don't forget, if you're staying at a Disney resort, you
can have packages delivered to the front desk of your hotel. Take advantage
of the service. It's definitely worth while.
Package Pick-Up at the Park
You can also have your package delivered to the front of
the park, where you can pick it up later in the day (on the way back to
your resort, perhaps). In Animal Kingdom, packages are delivered
to 'Garden Gate Gifts,' located to the left just before you exit the park
(it's also the location where wheelchair and stroller rentals are handled).
