Welcome to planDisney, David.
How brilliant that you're planning a trip to The Most Magical Place on Earth during the
50th Anniversary Celebration. What a great way to start the year! The moment your eyes catch a glimpse of Cinderella Castle in its spectacular EARidescent colors is sure to create a core memory day. Don't forget to stop by and say hello to Mickey, who looks delightfully dapper in his own EARidescent outfit.
Unfortunately,
complimentary Disney Bus Transportation from Disney Springs to the theme parks is not available. However, here's what you can do. From
Disney Springs, you can take the bus to Disney's Yacht & Beach Club Resorts and then either walk to
EPCOT via the International Gateway entrance or take the Disney Skyliner to
Disney's Hollywood Studios. Alternatively, from Disney Springs, you can take the bus to any Disney Resort Collection hotel and then get another bus directly to the theme park of your choice.
I hope that gives you some clarity, David. If you're looking for something tasty to eat at Disney Springs, I heartily recommend
Chef Art Smith's Homecomin'. And whatever you do, don't miss out on a visit to
Gideon's Bakehouse. There's usually a bit of a wait to get inside, however, it's worth it. Their cookies are sublime and their cold brew coffees are out of this world!
See ya real soon, David!
Mike
