On Saturday, May 27th, the Walt Disney Worldยฎ Resort welcomed guests to experience the largest expansion in the history of Disney’s Animal Kingdomยฎย Theme Park. Unlike anything ever before, Pandora – The World of Avatarย immerses guests in a mystical world of massive floating mountains, bioluminescent rainforests and breathtaking new experiences.
We’re so excited for our guests to experienceย Pandora – The World of Avatar.ย Withย so much to explore and discoverย once you enter theย Valley of Mo’ara, we thought we’d highlight a few of our must-do experiences!

1. Take Flight on Avatar Flight of Passage
1. Take Flight on Avatar Flight of Passage
What if you could climb on the back of anย Ikran and explore the beauty of Pandora from the air? Well, thanks to this immersive new adventure, now you can! Trust us, this is unlike any other ride you’ve experienced before! After spending a few minutes inside the genetic matching room where youย are scanned and connected to personal avatars, you’ll board link chairs, don your special flight visors and prepare for the flight.ย We’re not going to give any spoilers of what’s in store, but you’ll be amazed! TIP: This is aย Disney FastPass+ attraction (which we highly recommend) reserved for explorers 44″ or taller.
2. Set Sail on Na'vi River Journey
2. Set Sail on Na'vi River Journey
Climb aboard the reed boats and enjoy aย family-friendly cruise of the sacred Kapsavan River intoย aย bioluminescent rainforest of Mo’ara. After being granted passage by a Naโvi warrior, you’ll be amazed at the sights and sounds found deep in the jungle. Surprises are around each bend of the river, including a big one at the end of your journey. TIP: This is also aย Disney FastPass+ attraction, but since you are limited to only selecting one of the two attractions in Pandora – The World of Avatar, we only recommend selecting this for guests who wonโt/canโt ride Avatar Flight of Passage.
3. Explore Unique Merchandise at Windtraders
3. Explore Unique Merchandise at Windtraders
Everyone is going to want something to help them remember their experience on Pandora – The World of Avatar. From Na’vi cultural artifacts and animal toys to science kits and Alpha Centauri Expeditions (ACE) apparel, Windtraders is an out-of-this-world shopping location with something exciting for every member of the family. Our favorite part of the store is the Banshee Rookery, where you can select your own banshee to take home and care for. A trained naturalist will help you find the banshee thatโs just right for you! Itโs both a fun experience and the coolest souvenir to take home from your trip! TIP: The majority of this merchandise can only be found in Pandora – The World of Avatar, so if you see something you want be sure to purchase it before heading back to Planet Earth.

When in Naโvi territory, eat like a Naโvi! Satuโli (Sa-too-lee) Canteenย is the landโs fast-casual restaurant that serves a surprising twist on familiar flavors for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Youโll find wholesome grains, fresh vegetables, and hearty proteins on the menu here. And for dessert, options include Blueberry Cheesecake with a Passion Fruit Curd or Chocolate Cake with a Crunchy Cookie Layer. Nearby the Canteen is Pandoraโs specialty beverage kiosk, Pongu Pongu, which means โparty party.โ Options here include a non-alcoholic Frozen Nectar and for adults a Screaming Banshee Margarita and Avatar Private Label Ale. TIP: Pongu Pongu also serves our favorite snack/dessert in Moโara, the Lumpia – a pineapple cream cheese spring roll! Donโt miss it!

When the sun sets, the bioluminescent glow makes Pandora – The World of Avatar seem like a totally different place. Donโt think that since youโve seen it during the day that it isnโt worth going back for a night. TIP: Plan your outfits for the day with lots of whites or neon colors for added fun!
