It is an absolutely stunning, amazing African exhibit...but it's only 18 minutes long and that is nowhere near enough time to view the 100 or so animals in the numerous different exhibits.
Based on the thread "the 3 second rule" this exhibit is undoubtedly the best---at 18 minutes some zoo guests might be bored and impatient otherwise. Seriously, if there was a way to walk through/around Kilimanjaro, it would be by far the best African savanna exhibit on the planet.
Disney has spent so much money into the detailing....from the plant species throughout the safari to the rock work which hide the barriers...the entire safari is amazing......and chances are you wouldn't see every species of animals because there are numerous shrubs and hiding places throughout the exhibits...
Well this is a clear example of what i mean about some members in the forum lack of appreciation for well done expensive enclosures, this area along Blackrhino is worth the whole construction tag in MMZ one of your favorite zoos for ungulates, on top of that, the experience of the landscape when it comes to realism at least of what i have personally seen of africa comes pretty close, closer than any other zoo in the planet.
I respect that you have your favorites and i understand why you would rank a particular exihbit above another from your own perspective, but to say that this is not the best mix african exihbit experience outside of africa, is really beyond understanding even for me.
I think the airport in Havana Cuba is much better than Miami's, does it matter?
And if the reason for it not being 1#, is because of the lack of a walking trail, or additional viewing options, then that only means they have acomplished their goal of leaving you wondering what else is in that vast exihbit, and therefore returning.
