The Lion Guard Adventure Officially Debuting February 6

For a limited time starting Feb. 7, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Guests will be able to become Lion Guard honorary members through The Lion Guard Adventure.
This self-guided experience will encourage young Guests to protect animals and care for the environment as they explore the park to find some kid-sized statues of a few of the characters from the new Disney Junior show, “The Lion Guard.” Guests will receive their own honorary membership button upon completion. 

Here is a list of frequently asked questions about this new, interactive experience coming to the park:

1) Where do we pick up the Lion Guard Adventure map?

Guests may pick up their map at any of the following merchandise locations:

• Oasis: The Outpost
• Discovery Island: Island Mercantile
• Africa: Zuri’s Sweets Shop, Mombasa Marketplace, and the Festival of the Lion King cart
• Asia: Maharajah merchandise cart
• Rafiki’s Planet Watch

2) Where can Guests find the character statues to complete their adventure?

Participants will use their Lion Guard Adventure map to locate the character statues, including:

• Kion (lion)
• Fuli (cheetah)
• Beshte (hippo)
• Ono (egret)
• Bunga (honey badger)

3) How long will the experience be offered at the park?

The Lion Guard Adventure is planned through early April.

4) How do Guests finish the adventure if Rafiki’s Planet Watch is already closed?

Guests should complete their journey during the operating hours of Rafiki’s Planet Watch.

5) How is “The Lion Guard Adventure” different than “Wilderness Explorers?”

Wilderness Explorers is a permanent experience based on the film “Up” where participants gather badges while learning animal facts from Troop Leaders. “The Lion Guard Adventure” is a self-guided scavenger hunt-style offering for a limited time, based on the Disney Junior show “The Lion Guard.”

6) Will “The Lion Guard” merchandise be available?”

Guests will be able to purchase merchandise themed to The Lion Guard from Mombasa Marketplace as well as the cart outside of Festival of the Lion King.
