Hi Lori,
Thank you for submitting your question to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. How wonderful that you are able to visit Walt Disney World frequently!
There is
Complimentary Transportation provided to all of the theme parks, water parks, and Downtown Disney. From each of the theme parks you may take a bus (or monorail if traveling between Magic Kingdom and Epcot) to another theme park. In your specific case, after you finish dining at Animal Kingdom you can take a bus to the Magic Kingdom.
In general there is not direct transportation from one Disney Resort hotel to another. However some Disney Resort hotels that are in the same general vicinity may share the same transportation route. For example, the Friendship boat that services the International Gateway entrance of Epcot's World Showcase makes stops at the Yacht & Beach Club, the Boardwalk, and the Swan and Dolphin Resort hotels. If you have a question while you are on vacation regarding how to travel from one Disney Resort hotel to another, the Cast Members can help you figure out the most efficient method.
Have a
MAGICAL vacation Lori! If you have any more specific questions about transportation, please come back and visit us again. We love to help!
Blessings,
Brenda ºOº
