What better way to celebrate my birthday this year than crossing a rope ladder over crocodiles or eating lunch overlooking the Savannah? After booking a last-minute trip to Disney World, I had one thing at the top of my list of must-dos: the Wild Africa Trek. Disney's Wild Africa Trekis a 3-hour privately-guide VIP experience in Animal Kingdom's Africa section. You are led through inaccessible parts of animal enclosures to a suspension bridge, which finishes at a private safari truck that after meandering through the Savannah takes you to a hut to enjoy a packed lunch while watching giraffes and antelope.
