Sense of Africa or Wild Africa Trek

[-kat-]

Hey there guys, I was just wondering if any of you have any experience of doing any of these 2 tours?
Any experiences/help/advice/recommendations at all would be really greatly appreciated, thanks

We did Wild Africa Trek, and it was really good. Not heard of the other one so off to google it!

Here's our trip report of the WAT. https://www.thedibb.co.uk/forums/sho...light=haunting

We really loved the Wild Africa trek did it around 2 years ago it was amazing!

Not heard of the first one but did Wild Africa Trek and it was very good.

Check for any discounts they have on (we did the 11.40 start and it was something like $50 each cheaper than the slightly earlier slots). We were the first in the second group of times so not following another tour.

Paid just over $200 for 2 adults (total) in the summer holidays.

Perfect, thank you! I'll have good look at your trip report with my hubby later
The Sense of Africa one is fairly new I believe...it looks really amazing and I do love a good Boma brekkie ...plus you get to actually pet a giraffe etc which I think would be totally amazing!

Thanks! Really good to know ...it's actually mu daughter who saw it on a Vlog and really wants to try it but my wee boy will be too young unfortunately so we're thinking of just booking it for DH and DD to do together as it'll be both they're birthdays while we're there

That's awesome, thank you so much! It is a small fortune so really good to know that it's maybe available for slightly less ... did you just call Disney direct and get that discounted price? It's showing as $189 - $249 per person plus tax on the website ya see so you really did get a good deal

We have done the Wild Africa Trek and Animal Tales (behind the scenes at Animal Kingdom.). Both brilliant.
I think Senses of Africa is all at Animal Kingdom Lodge and Kidani and is quite new.
If you are an annual passholder or dvc member there is 15% discount. On most tours.

Yes you have to phone to book. It said the same prices when I booked as well.

Sorry it was an earlier typo should have put $300. Just checked and it was actually $296 total.

Also you can let them know any dietary preferences (I'm not a fish lover for things like salmon, tuna etc. So I had meat only for my lunch)

Thanks for that! Which would you say is better between the 2 you've done? I'll need to check out Animal Tales too
