We are staying at the Wilderness Lodge at I want to make reservations at Tusker House for as soon as they open at Animal Kingdom. How early do the buses start running? Will we be able to take the bus and be there before the park opens?

Hi, Lorrie! Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Typically, buses start running approximately 45 minutes before the Theme Park opens. If this is not enough time to allow on-time arrival for your breakfast reservation, check with the front desk at your hotel the day before and they can assist in informing you what your best options would be. When I have had early morning reservations, there has been an earlier 'breakfast bus' for Guests who have early breakfast reservations. The front desk informed me what times we could catch the breakfast bus and we made it to our reservation on time. Wishing you and your family a magical vacation, Lorrie! ~Rachel

Hi, I’m Rachel! I am a “boy mom” to two rowdy little men at home and married to my high school sweetheart. I am fortunate enough that my prince charming loves all things Disney just as much as I do! For me, planning a trip to Walt Disney World can be just as magical as being there. It brings our family together as we dream, plan, and count down the days. I would be honored to help plan your visit and share in your family’s very own magic! Learn More About Rachel
