I got to pet a sheep and a goat! The animals were friendly and well behaved. Being able to pet the animals was the highlight of my Animal Kingdom day.
Pros:
Animal lovers, (like myself), will love being up close and personal with their favorite animals.Cons:
The petting zoo was really the only thing we did at Rafiki’s Planet Watch. If Affection Section doesn’t seem like something you’d be into, then skip RPW.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 10/29/2021

We enjoyed the train ride over and I like to see the animals but we are not much for petting the animals. We did like the indoor area where we could see plant life and the medical rooms for the animals. We also loved seeing the animation class. Its a little time consuming if you are not going for the animation class since you can see animals in other parts of the park.
Pros:
Nice train ride to break up the day Nice to see the animals and pet them Love the animation classCons:

I think that this is a fun way to get up close with some animals. I think this is a good filler between some of the big attractions in AK, but I don’t think this would be a priority. If there is a very long wait for the train to get up to Rafiki’s Planet Watch, I don’t recommend waiting more than twenty minutes to get up there. But if you have an animal lover in your group or if you are going up there anyway for the animation experience, definitely stop on by! It is very fun to talk to the cast members in that area because they will know all about the animals in the affection section like their name and age and who doesn’t want to pet a goat? This may be something that you can do in your hometown- go to a petting zoo- but these aren’t just any animals. They are Disney animals!
Pros:
It’s a petting zoo! You can make some new goat friends and be educated about the different animals in the area by some of the nearby cast members. Great for any animal lover and fun for the entire family.Cons:
It is just a petting zoo. You may have something like it back in your hometown. It could take a while to get up to Rafiki’s Planet Watch if there is a long wait for the train. Limited number of different animal species to pet.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 05/17/2021

I enjoyed being able to get up close with animals I have never gotten to pet before, and the animals were very friendly. This is also great for little kids who love animals.

Nothing more then a typical county fair petting zoo. Nice for the fair, but not for Disney. Better ways to spend your time at Disney. Especially if the train ride (Only way to get there) breaks down on your way there.
Pros:
Nice for young kids who like to pet animals.Cons:
Very boring.Reviewed by MegYavoich Review Date: 10/29/2020

If you live in an area where you can't see or pet goats often or you really enjoy an animation class I guess this could be worth your time, but I would rather do just about anything else in AK.
Pros:
Nice little train ride there. Goats and other farm animals are cute.Cons:
Takes a long time to get to and get back from and not super exciting or very unique.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 06/26/2020
