Hiya, Ahoy and welcome to planDisney, Hayley! I'm always happy to talk with a fellow Georgian and Disney enthusiast.
You have chosen a magical place to stay for your trip to
Walt Disney World Resort with your fiancé and family. The
Walt Disney World Swan is convenient to
EPCOT and
Disney's Hollywood Studios. The entire
Disney BoardWalk area is gorgeous. And there is so much to do just outside your resort's door.
Setting sail aboard a FriendShip Boat is a fun way to start your day at either of these theme parks.
FriendShip Boats typically begin running at 8:30 a.m., but you should check with the Front Desk for the most up-to-date information on
water transportation.
Looking at the
theme park hours calendar for July 6, both of these theme parks have
Early Entry Hours beginning at 8:30 a.m. Check with the resort to see if the boat may be running earlier to get you to the entrance gates by 8:30 a.m. EPCOT is an easy walk from the Swan. Hollywood Studios is accessible within a 25-minute walk but may be easier by boat, depending on the preferences of your group.
Did you know the
My Disney Experience App has maps that include
resort transportation, including walking, buses, the
Disney Monorail and
Disney Skyliner? Pick your destination on the app, select "Get Directions" and the app will guide you on the best ways to travel. Magic!
