Hi there, Stacy, and welcome to planDisney! It sounds like you're looking forward to an amazing Walt Disney World Resort vacation! I'm so excited that you're here today with this great question about visiting Magic Kingdom Park.
Stacy, I can think of a couple of options that might work for streamlining your morning. The first would be to park at the Transportation & Ticket Center before breakfast and take the Resort Monorail to
Chef Mickey's at
Disney's Contemporary Resort, then walk to Magic Kingdom Park after breakfast. The second would be to use a ride share service to bring you straight to Disney's Contemporary Resort before breakfast, then walk to Magic Kingdom Park. When you're ready to leave Magic Kingdom Park, you can head to the TTC via
Monorail or ferry and call another ride share service to bring you home. The first option would likely save you money and the second option would likely save you time.
If you're the kind of person who likes to have great meals during your vacation, you have a friend in me! Another
Character Dining experience that I love is at
Tusker House Restaurant at
Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. You'll enjoy African and Indian-inspired flavors while you're paid a visit from Mickey Mouse and his pals, all dressed in their safari best. At
EPCOT, you can find
Garden Grill Restaurant, which is one of the must-do's for my Panelist pal,
Lizzie. She recommends spending some quality time with Chip 'n' Dale during your meal!
Stacy, I could go on all day about the awesome dining options throughout the Most Magical Place on Earth. One thing I'll leave you with, is that even though you're staying outside Walt Disney World Resort, you'll enjoy complimentary transportation via buses, boats, the Monorail, and
Disney Skyliner when you're traveling between Disney Theme Parks,
Disney Springs, and the
Disney Resorts Collection hotels. Just open up the
My Disney Experience Mobile App to get directions to your next destination, and enjoy the ride!
Please stop back by planDisney with any other questions you have about your upcoming visit. I'm here and always happy to help!
See you real soon!
Jennifer
