    We are staying at Beach Club & have breakfast reservations at Boma at the same time as Animal Kingdom opens. Can we get a bus from the park to Animal Kingdom Lodge or do the buses only drop off people that early?

    Welcome, Carol!

    Thank you for visiting planDisney! It is wonderful to hear from you. Oh, how I love Disney's Beach Club Resort. The lobby smells so wonderful and oh, that pool! Stormalong Bay is such a fun place to splash, soak and even float the day away.

    Yes, you'll be able to take complimentary Disney bus transportation to Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park and then hop on another bus to Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge. Since most Guests are headed to the parks that early, I suggest letting a Cast Member, near the transportation area, know that you are headed to breakfast as sometimes they can help with the next bus arrival.

    If you want to save a little time and don't mind spending extra, you can request Disney Minnie Van Service through the Lyft app and get there easy-peasy. Disney Minnie Van Service has become my family's favorite way to travel for early morning reservations or after a long day of walking as it's so easy and prompt and the drop-off and pick-up locations often save us valuable steps as well as time. Plus, the drivers are Disney Cast Members and can often offer tips for your day at the park or fun facts about Walt Disney World Resort.

    Boma is one of my favorite breakfast buffets on property. Not only is the setting beautiful, but the food is delicious as well. After breakfast be sure to take a stroll outdoors through the savanna to see some of the incredible animals that call this resort home. 

    Enjoy your vacation, Carol! If we can assist with anything else, please let us know.

    Magical Wishes,

    Lauren
