What it is

Tamu Tamu is a small walk-up counter in Harambe serving pineapple soft serve in cups and floats, plus a handful of light snacks. It is Animal Kingdom's answer to the Magic Kingdom Dole Whip queue, and it is nearly always shorter.

Its actual claim to fame is the alcoholic version - pineapple soft serve with rum, which is the only place on Disney property outside a few resort bars where you can get that combination in this form. It is sweet, it is strong enough to notice, and it is exactly what you want at 3 PM in July.

Seating is a shaded courtyard tucked behind the counter that most people walk past. It has tables, it has shade, and it is a legitimate rest stop rather than a place to stand and eat.

Our verdict

The Dole Whip is the same product you can get in three other places on property, so the draw is the rum version and the quiet shaded courtyard behind it. Both are worth the short detour into Harambe.

What to order

The dishes this kitchen is actually known for. Menus change seasonally, so treat this as what to look for rather than a guaranteed list.

  • Dole Whip pineapple soft serve
  • Dole Whip float
  • Dole Whip with rum
  • Soft serve swirls

Tips for Tamu Tamu Refreshments

  • The courtyard seating behind the counter is shaded and almost always has an open table. Most guests take the cup and walk off without noticing it exists.
  • The soft serve is dairy-free and vegan, which makes it one of the few genuinely safe sweet options in the park for dairy allergies.
  • Mobile order is available and the walk-up line at this window is rarely long enough to justify it - unless it is 2 PM in August, when it very much is.
  • Repeat-visitor note: this is the only Dole Whip location at Walt Disney World that serves it with rum. If you have been getting the plain cup at Magic Kingdom for years, this is the reason to walk to Harambe.
