    I plan to grab breakfast in Disney Springs and then head to the parks in the morning for early entry. What is the quickest way to get to Magic kingdom from Disney springs. Is it easier to walk to Saratoga springs and get the bus from there?

    Hi Jaclyn!

    Welcome to planDisney!

    Before I get into the answer of how to get from Disney Springs to Magic Kingdom, I want to give you a quick heads-up! Unfortunately, Disney Springs usually doesn’t open until a little later in the morning. So, grabbing breakfast there early enough to make it to Early Entry at a theme park may not be possible.

    For example, this week, Disney Springs is scheduled to open at 10:00 AM, and Early Entry at Magic Kingdom begins at 7:30 AM. Of course, hours are always subject to change, so I’d check the Hours & Events Calendar leading up to your trip to get an idea of what to expect. But it might end up working out better if you grab breakfastat your resort or at Magic Kingdom instead.

    Now, if you do find yourself wanting to get to Magic Kingdom from Disney Springs, you’ll have a few options. First, you’re more than welcome to head over to Saratoga Springs and hop on a bus to Magic Kingdom from there. 

    You could also take a bus from Disney Springs to a resort that’s close to Magic Kingdom, such as the Contemporary, Polynesian, or Grand Floridian. From there, you can walk to the park or take the Monorail

    Finally, you can take a Minnie Van. While this comes at an extra cost, it will be the most direct route, as a Minnie Van can pick you up from Disney Springs and drop you off right at Magic Kingdom’s entrance. 

    It’s good to note that there are no direct bus routes between Disney Springs and the theme parks at this time. 

    I hope that helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to come back and visit us!
