A one-day ticket varies depending on the exact date you plan to visit. The current pricing ranges between $109 and $159 per day for a one-day base ticket.

Despite some of its early preachiness (and some unfair press about animal care at the park) - Disney's Animal Kingdom opened to generally good reviews. At a cost of nearly $1 Billion to complete, Animal Kingdom was an expensive theme park.
Which is the best day to visit Animal Kingdom? Animal Kingdom is one of the only Disney theme parks which we recommend to visit certain weekend days. We typically see lower crowds on Friday and Sundays. Wednesday is another one of the best days to go to Animal Kingdom.
For anyone who has spent time in Animal Kingdom, you may notice some HUGE differences from the rest of Disney World's parks! In addition to the fact that it's got legit live animals, this is also the ONLY park that doesn't have fireworks. It's a policy that likely won't change, either, for good reason. Here's why!
Star Wars Rise of the Resistance – Set between $15 and $25. Avatar Flight of Passage – Priced from $11 to $16. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train – Costs between $10 and $12.
The worst day of the week to visit has historically been Monday! Perhaps it's because people expect the weekends to be the busiest, so they go with a weekday instead. Nonetheless, Monday wait times might be a bit higher than you'd want.
While Disney has found ways to extend the fun into the afternoon and evening hours, most of the animals viewed here are far more active, and therefore visible, in the morning. I strongly recommend you arrive at the park at opening time, or as soon afterwards as possible, to maximize your visit.

#1 – The Best Disney Park – Magic KingdomComing in at number one is the original 1971 Walt Disney World park, Magic Kingdom! Home to the most magical castle on Earth and some of the most classic attractions in theme parks.
But remember, all that sparkles is not pixie dust! Despite its grand size, Animal Kingdom is home to the fewest rides among the Disney parks, focusing more on enchanting encounters with exotic animals. We'll share the Animal Kingdom rides you can skip and ones you cannot miss!
A lot of this has to do with the fact that Animal Kingdom is home to many different animals that require care. This requires the park to close earlier than others so cast members can care for the animals and prepare for the next day.
Animal Kingdom is very appropriate for kids ages 6 to 12 or any kiddos who appreciate animals and nature. The park is nicely spread out, and there's definitely a slower pace here (compared to Magic Kingdom). This allows you to go at your own pace, explore the side trails, and take in the scenery.
If you have Early Entry and are starting with something other than Avatar Flight of Passage, arrive 15 to 30 minutes before the start of Early Entry. You should expect only a short wait, but your hope is to be off your first ride in time to get on a second ride during Early Entry.
