Hello, Olivia!
Welcome to planDisney! I am happy to hear that you will be making memories at the Walt Disney World Resort in just a few days!
Guests who stay in the middle of the magic at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel can take advantage of pixie-dusted benefits, including
complimentary transportation to the theme parks and Disney Springs!
Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside is one of my favorite Disney Resort hotels, and I love using boat transportation to Disney Springs. The boat ride is relaxing, and you get to enjoy beautiful views of the Walt Disney World Resort along the way!
Although
boat transportation to Disney Springs is currently not operating, I recommend checking availability with Cast Members at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort – Riverside upon arrival. If water transportation is still unavailable upon the hotel's re-opening, Cast Members will be able to recommend alternative transportation to Disney Springs. In addition, you are welcome to get directions using the
My Disney Experience app.
It was a pleasure answering your question, Olivia! I hope this helps you while planning and that you have a magical visit to the Walt Disney World Resort!
See ya real soon,
Thiana
