Hi Michelle! Thanks for bringing your question to planDisney! You've selected two amazing resorts for your split-stay!
Disney's Art of Animation Resort is going to give you the true feel of Disney magic! The Lion King section of this resort is my favorite!
Disney's Grand Floridian Resort and Spa will provide you with a true escape to luxury! If you have time in your schedule, allow yourself to relax by the pool or enjoy the shops inside the resort! Also
Gasparilla Island Grill provides very convenient quick-service dining! The breakfast there is a great way to begin your Disney-day! I also like to end my day there by enjoying a late-night snack after returning from a long day at the parks!
While the
Disney Skyliner will provide transportation to both Disney's Hollywood Studios and EPCOT, the Skyliner is not connected to the Ticket and Transportation Center. Also, the EPCOT line of the
Monorail is currently not operating. I recommend that you travel from Disney's Art of Animation Resort to Magic Kingdom Park via the
complimentary bus service provided by the resort! Sit back, relax, and let Disney do the driving while you enjoy the sights during your journey!
Hakuna Matata! Jonathan
