    Hi! I’m traveling from a Disney’s Dolphin to the Orlando port for a Royal Caribbean Cruise and then back to Disney to spend a few more days at the Animal Kingdom Lodge. How can I book a ride in advance?

    Ahoy Trevor! Welcome to planDisney! 

    You are sea-riously making a splash when it comes to a fun vacation! 

    Let's dive right into your question! While Disney can provide transportation from a Resort hotel to Port Canaveral for Disney Cruise sailings, there is no transportation service available for Royal Caribbean Cruises that can be booked through the Walt Disney World website. But not to worry, you have many options. I suggest doing an internet search for "Transportation from Walt Disney World to Port Canaveral and back." I tested this for you and found a variety of options. It looks like you have several transportation and pricing options.  From my experience, I have used Mears Connect and ride-share services.

    Trevor, while you are staying on Disney property, you have full access to bus, skyliner, boat, and monorail transportation. 

    I hope this helps you find what option will work best for you. I love to hear that you will be staying at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge.  I am wild about this Resort hotel.  I stayed there earlier this year and, for the first time, I FINALLY had breakfast at Boma - Flavors of Africa. Oh my goodness, I cannot recommend the seasonal bread pudding enough! I hope you'll enjoy the pools, the food, and the opportunity to enjoy the animals just steps outside your hotel.  

    I am so excited for your magical journey from land to sea! Please stop by and visit us at planDisney anytime. We are Guests like you and we love sharing our experiences to help you create the perfect life-long vacation memories! 

    "Sea" ya real soon!
