Welcome back to planDisney, Tess!
Disney Springs is my go-to place to shop, even when I’m not vacationing at Walt Disney World. As a local, I find that it’s a one-stop-shop for all of my gift-giving and self-care needs. From there, I would drive over to the theme parks and park in those lots because
Annual Passholders get free standard theme park parking (a benefit worth looking into). But let’s dive into the other options that you have when parking at the free Disney Springs garages.
Unfortunately, there is no direct-to-theme-park bus transportation from Disney Springs. However, there are buses that travel to the
Disney Resorts Collection hotels. You could take the buses to those hotels and from there, you could be a walk, boat ride, Disney Skyliner, or Disney Monorail away from tapping into the magic. Those are long journeys, so I recommend just parking at the theme parks or using a rideshare service from Disney Springs.
AN EXTRA GEM: If you want to learn more about the cool transportation options that can take you from Point A to B on Walt Disney World Resort property, check out this
Disney Parks Blog post. My planDisney buddies share their tips and tricks about how to make the most of these mix of complimentary and paid ways to get around.
Tess, I hope that this helps and that you find your way to where you need to go! If you have additional questions, feel free to
give us a holler here at planDisney.
Magic always,
LeAndra
