We've got a new series and we're kicking it off with a WILD adventure! There is so much to do in Walt Disney World that we're crossing off all of the obscure and immersive experiences off our theme park bucket list. First off, Molly is headed to Disney's Animal Kingdom to do Wild Africa Trek! This three hour tour gets you up close and personal with the safari animals -- including a bridge walk OVER the crocodiles. Get ready for an up-close and personal animal adventure!

Molly’s Disney bucket list series is going to be so amazing to follow. Tours like this are such hidden gems that most don’t think about when they’re all about the rides and attractions. This one especially is so unique and personal!

I‘m 68 and last year on a solo trip I did my own 4 park challenge. I rode a ride, ate a snack, met a character , did a photopass photo and bought a souvenir. So much fun and I was so proud of myself :0)

My partner and I did this on our adults only vacation in November. It was honestly one of the best experiences I've ever had at Disney. We had the DVC discount, so it was a little cheaper, but I would have paid full price. It was an incredible experience. And just as an FYI, when they weigh you, it's on a little screen only the person can see and they don't tell you what the number is, even if you ask. 😂

I did a Caring For Giants tour a few weeks ago with Dominic that took us backstage to a private viewing area to get up close with the elephants, and it was amazing. I was hoping to do this tour but it wasn't available on my AK day.

We did this in 2014. SO MUCH FUN!!! And totally worth the cost. The bridge was fun and just a touch challenging. My mom and aunt are not very active at all, but managed the course just fine. We got to spend tons of time on the safari. My aunt is obsessed with giraffes so they made sure we stopped and watched the giraffes for about 15-20 min. The lions were really playful when we drove through (a rare site) so we got to stop and watch them for a bit. The food was good. They even had a kids version of the food (less adventurous) that anyone could request. We got so many great pictures. Included in the price. The guides were wonderful, didn’t rush us, and were really informative.

My wife and I brought our teenage boys on this in 2016. We did the trek at 8 am. Being able to walk into AK before it open and have 10-15 mins alone in front of the Tree was amazing. So worth it.

We were on the Wild Aftrica Trek tour and I can confirm that they are not forcing the animals. The hippos on our tour were not interested in feeding so we waited a little bit and went on to the next stop. This tour was amazing and this video made us to try doing it again on our next visit. Assante Sana Club for the nostalgia :)

Love this new series!! It’s so much fun to see Molly so happy and to live vicariously through her, lol! My suggestion for a future episode: a stay at Polynesian Village bungalows? A relaxing staycation at possibly the best hotel room on Disney property? Have a relaxing view of the MK fireworks while in your private plunge pool, and perhaps a few trips over to your favorite food spots at the resort. What do you think??

We did this one year on Thanksgiving Day. It was a great way to have a private experience during one of the busiest park days. The peace we experienced and the memories that last a lifetime were priceless. On our last trip, we did the Caring for Giants tour. That was a shorter experience, but equally magical. We enjoyed the private time viewing the elephants and learned so much! I think you should do the Rhino tour, because it was sold out our entire trip!

@trerock Жыл бұрын

We did the Up Close with Rhinos Tour in December 2022 and it was fantastic! We didn't just get close, we actually got to walk up to the bars, reach through and pet Dugan, the adult male rhino! The only issue - which may impact whether Molly can include this tour in her Bucket List Series - is that unlike the Wild Africa Trek, pretty much the entire Rhino tour is "behind the scenes," so no cameras are allowed. At the very end of the tour, they have a prop with the name of the rhino you got to meet that you can hold and they'll use your camera to take your picture with that. (One nice bonus - you get to keep your name tag, which features a drawing of a rhino by Joe Rohde.)

I surprised my family with the Wild Africa Trek experience and would highly recommend it. My family was suspicious, though, the morning of because they had seen enough "Molly videos" and could not understand why we were not rope-dropping AK to ride Kilimanjaro and save the Genie+ to ride in the afternoon to see the hyenas. I was like let's luxuriate and enjoy the relaxed morning; everything will work out.💚

Thank you for doing these videos Molly. I live in London, been to Orlando 3 times before but it’s always been with friends and family. Seeing how much enjoyment you get from the parks on days without Max and Alan has given me the confidence to go to Orlando alone next May (I think that’s a good time to go in terms of weather/crowd level?) I was hesitant to go alone (bit sad ain’t it?!) but watching you has given me a completely different perspective. Now I’m looking forward to being in complete control of what I want to do and where I want to do it. Thank you.
