    Hello, we are thinking about staying at Boardwalk villas before a Disney cruise next summer. Does DCL offer grounds transport from Boardwalk to Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale?

    Ahoy, Kevin!

    Welcome aboard planDisney, your one-stop answer shop for all your Disney vacation questions. Sounds like you’re planning a dreamy land and sea vacation, beginning with a stay at Disney’s BoardWalk Villas before sailing out of Fort Lauderdale with Disney Cruise Line. The best of both worlds! 

    My family has a similar vacation planned for this April! We’re starting with a few days at Walt Disney World before sailing out of Fort Lauderdale on a 4-night Bahamian cruise on the Disney Magic. While booking this vacation, I discovered that Disney Cruise Line does not offer ground transportation between Disney Resort hotels and Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale. They do offer transportation between Disney Resort hotels and Port Canaveral, but that is because this port is much closer to Walt Disney World. This leaves you with a few options. You can stay overnight in a hotel near Port Everglades or fly into Fort Lauderdale and arrange transportation to the cruise terminal from the hotel or airport with Disney Cruise Line. Transportation between Disney’s BoardWalk Villas and Port Everglades can also be booked through Mears Transportation. 

    No matter how you make your way to the cruise terminal, I know you will have a magical time at Walt Disney World and onboard the Disney Cruise Line. If we can answer any more questions or offer recommendations, remember *you’ve got a friend in me* here at planDisney, so stop by anytime!  

    Happy Planning!
