Hi Leslie, and welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
I’m sending some early pixie-dusted birthday wishes your way. I love the thought of you and your dear friend traveling around Walt Disney World in Minnie Style using the adorable and wonderfully convenient
Minnie Van Service. Rock the dots!
At Magic Kingdom Park and Epcot, Minnie Vans pick up and drop off right by the Walt Disney World bus transportation stops. (Note that if you’re leaving Epcot from the World Showcase, it’s likely easier to leave through the International Gateway gate and walk over to Disney’s Beach Club Resort to request a Minnie Van.) At Disney’s Animal Kingdom, the pick-up and drop-off area is close to where the parking lot trams board near the park entrance. At Disney’s Hollywood Studios, the current pick-up and drop-off location is near the taxi stand, close to one of the parking areas. For your arrival day, you’ll find the Minnie Van pick-up area near baggage claim.
Leslie, please note that these locations are subject to change, especially with Disney’s Hollywood Studios experiencing so much construction at the front of the park. There are signs posted in each theme park pointing the way to the various modes of transportation, and friendly Cast Members can provide directions.
Park maps are available on the Walt Disney World Website and in the My Disney Experience mobile app, and you can pick them up at your resort or as you enter each park.
Here’s a birthday fun fact: the Minnie Vans are equipped with several Walt Disney World music playlists. Since you’re the birthday princess, be sure to ask your driver if they have your favorite theme park or resort area music!
Wishing you a magical birthday vacation,
Robyn
