Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Megan!
It's always nice to assist fellow residents of the Garden State. Thanks for posting your question about transportation at Walt Disney World Resort.
Disney's Art of Animation Resort is a spectacular place to call home during your vacation. There are so many fabulous places to capture photographs with beloved characters and props from Cars, The Lion King, The Little Mermaid and Finding Nemo. And
Landscape of Flavors is the best food court on Walt Disney World Resort property, in my opinion. I love to dine there. Their
Surf and Surf Burger is so tasty.
If you are taking a
complimentary Disney bus to Magic Kingdom Park, allow 25 minutes for the ride. It's definitely the most efficient way to get to Magic Kingdom Park. Guests driving themselves would park across Seven Seas Lagoon from Magic Kingdom Park and then take a ferry boat or monorail to your destination. By comparison, the Disney bus drops Guests off right in front of the theme park.
Let us know if you need any additional information as you plan your trip. We'd be delighted to provide whatever advice you may need.
Wishing you many magical memories,
Jill
