Hi Sandra!
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
You have chosen the perfect Disney Resort hotel, as
Disney's Beach Club Resort is within easy walking distance of the International Gateway entrance for Epcot. This entrance will bring you directly into World Showcase - it is actually located between the United Kingdom and France pavilions - and the closest entrance to the Norway pavilion for your
Akershus Royal Banquet Hall dining reservation.
Here is a park guide map of Epcot, so you can see exactly where you need to go. You will have the opportunity to enjoy World Showcase as you walk to the Norway pavilion, passing by France, Morocco, Japan, The American Adventure, Italy, Germany and China before you reach Norway. Alternatively, you could take a short boat ride from Morocco to Showcase Plaza and then walk to Mexico before arriving at Norway! There is so much to see that whichever route you choose, it will be very enjoyable. I would recommend that you give yourself plenty of time so that you can make the most of World Showcase on your way to your dining reservation.
Another benefit of staying in a Disney Resort hotel close to the International Gateway entrance is that the new
Disney Skyliner station for Epcot is located there, and if you are planning to visit Disney's Hollywood Studios this provides a fun way to travel to that park.
Please come back and visit us if you have any further questions. We will be happy to help you plan your magical holiday to Walt Disney World.
Sue
