Walt Disney World Transportation Options

• On-site hotel guests have access to complimentary bus service to theme parks and Disney Springs.
• Direct bus service between theme parks and Disney Springs is currently suspended, so transfers are required at a hotel.
• The monorail is a popular choice, with the Express Monorail directly connecting Magic Kingdom and the Transportation and Ticket Center (TTC).
• The Resort Monorail stops at Polynesian Village Resort, Grand Floridian Resort and Spa, and Contemporary Resort.
• Water transportation includes large ferries, Friendship Boats, and water taxis, connecting various locations around the resort.
• The Skyliner gondolas are the newest addition, connecting EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and select Disney hotels.
• The lines at the Riviera Skyliner station can be slower, while other stations have quick-moving lines.
• Specific resorts like Caribbean Beach, Riviera, Pop Century, and Art of Animation rely on the Skyliner for transportation to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios.
• Walking is an option, especially for guests at Crescent Lake resorts near EPCOT and Hollywood Studios.
• Ride-sharing apps like Uber and Lyft are available but can be costly at peak times.
• Driving your own car is an option, with free parking at the theme parks for on-site hotel guests.
• Disney transportation is accessible for guests with mobility devices, strollers, and wheelchairs.
• Strollers need to be folded on buses, trams, and some smaller boats, while they can remain open on the Skyliner, monorails, and larger ferries.

BonusTips:

• Check bus stops as they may change,
• expect transportation rush before park opening and after park closing,
• allow extra time for transportation during peak times,
• use the My Disney Experience app for information on transportation options.
