Sanaa - Directions Needed

[labfan]

After spending the day at AK we will be taking the bus to AKL to have dinner at Sanaa.
We need directions to the restaurant from when we get off the bus. TIA.

Sanaa is at Kidani village, so get off the bus there (not at Jambo house unless you want to walk between the two). At Kidani, walk through the lobby and down the steps, Sanaa is right there.

Thank you, Glad I asked as I was not aware there was more than one stop there.

Depending on the Bus - Kidani can sometimes be the first or the second stop (sometimes it stops at Jambo first). The bus driver does not alway announce the stop so ask the driver when you get on the bus if Kidani will be the first or the second stop.

Just so you are not confused, Kidani Village, where Sanaa is, at the Animal Kingdom Lodge is the Disney Vacation Club building at AK. It is a totally separate building. If you were hoping to visit the Animal Kingdom Lodge and experience the gorgeous lobby and savannah's, you won't be there at the Kidani stop.
You can plan extra time to go first or after to Jambo House, the main AK building, to see it if you would like. There is a walking path and a shuttle between the two. I haven't done it, but I think it is about a 10 minute walk.
Enjoy

We love Sanaa too. Even though you can't see the animals in the dark, if you go outside right by the restaurant, they have a guide with night vision googles to watch the animals. There is a fire-pit and rockers. It's amazing! Plus the food is incredible!

Surely you jest. I have walked between the two several times, and it's a quick 5 minute walk even for us senior citizens. Also, the animal viewing area at Kidani is almost better than the one at Jambo.

We ate at Sanaa on Friday night and LOVED it!! We arrived at 6.30pm for our reservation at 7.05pm and had plenty of time to see lots of animals on the savannah, including 3 giraffes very close by!!

We sat in the bar for a while, and were seated at about 7.15pm, and we still had an amazing view of the animals for at least another 45 minutes. We saw that the 3 giraffes had been joined by another, and there were lots of other animals very close to the windows - we even saw a snake slither right past the window - this was a first for our server!!

By the way - the food and service was amazing - it was a very memorable dinner.
