On Tour 99, Magical Matthew and Tour Guide Diane Whiting compare Disney's Wilderness Lodge Resort with Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge Resort.

And, while there are many similarities, there are also some significant differences to consider.

1.    Theme: The Wilderness Lodge is inspired by the National Park lodges of the Pacific Northwest, while

the Animal Kingdom Lodge is inspired by African wildlife preserves.

2.    Location: The Wilderness Lodge is situated in the Magic Kingdom area, while the Animal Kingdom

Lodge is located near the Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park.

3.    Room Views: While both resorts offer beautiful views, the Animal Kingdom Lodge has savannah-facing rooms where guests can observe grazing wildlife. The Wilderness Lodge, on the other hand, offers views of the resort's natural surroundings, such as the Copper Creek Springs Pool or the forests of the Pacific Northwest.

4.    Dining options: The Animal Kingdom Lodge has more dining options with its signature restaurant, Jiko - The Cooking Place, offering African-inspired cuisine, as well as Boma - Flavors of Africa, and Sanaa. The Wilderness Lodge has fewer dining options with its signature restaurant, Artist Point, offering Pacific Northwest-inspired cuisine.

5.    Amenities: Both resorts offer numerous amenities, including pools, fitness centers, and complimentary transportation to the Disney parks. However, the Animal Kingdom Lodge also has cultural activities such as drum circles, and animal programs including the Wildlife Discovery Excursion, while the Wilderness Lodge offers outdoor activities such as fishing, bike rentals, and campfires
