Hi Johanna! Welcome to planDisney!
Oh boy! Your Walt Disney World vacation will be here in less than a week! I'm sure you are excited about all the magical experiences you are bound to have!
Spending time at
Disney Springs is a great change of pace for your stay. It allows you to leisurely explore some shops and try an array of different cuisines. With a late dinner reservation, you can potentially still enjoy a day at the parks and finish up your night here.
Disney Transportation will typically be available up to an hour after Disney Springs closes. With a current closing time of 11 PM, you can expect bus and boat transportation to still be running until around midnight. I would consider this while dining and make sure you give yourself enough time to get to these locations when you are finished. If you happen to miss your departure, there are other options to get back to your resort. You can consider a ride-share service, which is available 24 hours a day, or even opt for a Minnie Van which will be a fun way to travel back.
Minnie Van Service is connected through Lyft and is available until 12:30 AM each day.
I love that you are staying at
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter! This resort is themed perfectly and is picturesque in so many ways. Scat Cat's Club - Café is home to delicious Mickey-shaped beignets which are out of this world. If I could, I would start and end each day with an order of these amazing treats.
Johanna, I hope you have a wonderful stay next week!
Stop back and see us again at planDisney with any last-minute planning questions!
