Hello, Mark!
As Disney Vacation Club members,
Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort is our home resort. We love the beautiful landscaping, lovely fountains and horse theming of the resort. It is our home away from home!
In our experience, travel times vary depending on the choice of transportation, time of year and crowd levels. When using
Walt Disney World Bus Service, our travel time has been about 35 minutes. However, I always plan to leave an hour or so BEFORE my desired arrival time to allow plenty of time for traffic issues. Depending on your bus stop (there are five at this resort), you may be the first to board the bus or the last. Once the bus has completed the bus stop loop, the bus travels directly to Magic Kingdom. If you plan to drive your car to the Magic Kingdom, you will need to park in the designated Magic Kingdom lot and take either the ferry or monorail to the park. I suggest planning a good hour for travel time if you choose this option. Increase your travel time if you plan to visit during holidays or special events.
Thank you for your question, and I hope you enjoy your stay at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort.
Have a magical day!
Missy
