Hi Madison and welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
Whether you will be dining at
Chef Mickey's or the
California Grill, I think you will love having Brunch at
Disney's Contemporary Resort. You will have a few options for transportation. You can use Walt Disney World Bus Transportation from Animal Kingdom Park to Disney's Contemporary Resort. When you exit Animal Kingdom Park, the bus loops will be on your right. Large signs will tell you which bus stop will be for Disney's Contemporary Resort. I would allow at least an hour, possibly an hour and a half to make your reservation.
If you aren't interested in taking the bus, you could utilize Disney's
Minnie Van Service. You have to use the Lyft app and select a Minnie Van. The cost is $25.00 one way for up to six passengers. I have used this service several times and have thoroughly enjoyed the ride. It's quieter than the bus, air-conditioned, and they have charger cords for your smartphones during the ride!
Please let us know if we can help you with any other questions!
Wishing you a magical vacation,
Amy H.
