Hi there, Dan!
Oh, what a magical morning you have planned! Our daughters experienced the
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique many moons ago, and to this day, they still talk about it with sparkles in their eyes. Your little princess is going to absolutely love her royal transformation!
Now, let’s get her to the castle on time! The water taxis typically begin their journeys about an hour before the park opens to resort guests. Based on your arrival date, that would mean boats should begin sailing around 7:30 a.m., and the ride across the water takes about 15 to 20 minutes. With an 8:00 a.m. appointment, you would need to be at the gate right at 7:30 to get through security, scan in, and make your way down Main Street, U.S.A. toward
Cinderella Castle. In other words, while the boat is enchanting, it’s a little risky when you’re on such a tight royal schedule.
For peace of mind, I’d suggest considering a ride share like Uber or Lyft. But if you really want to sprinkle some extra pixie dust on the morning, the
Minnie Van Service (also booked through Lyft) is the way to go. With cheerful polka dots and Disney Cast Member drivers, Minnie Vans can drop you much closer to the Magic Kingdom entrance. It’s a magical beginning to a day she’ll never forget.
See ya real soon!
Anne
