Hi John,
Thank you so much for visiting the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question. I stayed at
Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa on my last trip to Walt Disney World, and it is a beautiful resort. I love that you are planning to spend some time at
Disney's BoardWalk. I find it to be so alive and energetic, with great places to eat, shop, and play. While there are not buses that will take you directly from Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa to Disney's BoardWalk, there are a couple of fairly simple ways to make this trip.
One option is to take a bus from Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa to Disney's Hollywood Studios. From Disney's Hollywood Studios, you can either catch a boat or walk to Disney's BoardWalk. The walk would likely take about 15 to 20 minutes. Another option would be to take a boat from Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa to Disney Springs, and from Disney Springs to catch a bus to Disney's BoardWalk Inn. In either case, I would allow yourself at least an hour of total transportation time. There is also the option of taking a taxi. This will come with a cost, but would be the quickest option. To catch a taxi, head to the lobby area of Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa. If there is not a taxi waiting, ask a cast member to call one for you.
I hope that these thoughts are helpful for you, John! Have a great time planning your magical vacation, and please do let us know if you have any further questions.
