    We will be visiting in mid Nov. We would like to visit MK during EMH and then hop to DHS for our lunch with an Imagineer at noon. About how much time will it take to hop via Disney transportation? Would it be faster to grab a cab?

    Hey Louise-

    Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Dining with an Imagineer is like getting your wish upon a star granted. I am so excited for you. Soak up the magical moment! Getting from place to place at Walt Disney World Resort can be tricky so let’s get you from Magic Kingdom Park to Disney’s Hollywood Studios without any worry.

    There are two main ways to travel between these theme parks: bus and car. First, by using the Walt Disney World Bus Service you may travel directly from Magic Kingdom Park to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Travel time is about 15 minutes once the bus starts rolling. We plan around 30 minutes when traveling between theme parks because there could be delays. The buses are to the left when you exit Magic Kingdom Park. Walt Disney World Resort officially recommends budgeting 90 minutes of travel time when using complimentary transportation around the Resort. The second option is by cab from Disney's Contemporary Resort. The 10 minute walk from the theme park to the resort is easy and cabs are on standby. The fare should be about $20.00. I would use a taxi if the bus lines are crowded.

    Disney Dad Tip: Lunch with an Imagineer is a very special experience. You do not want to be like the White Rabbit and worry about being late. I would suggest arriving at the bus stop 60 minutes before your meal begins. If you arrive extremely early at Disney’s Hollywood Studios then enjoy the wonderful shops and attractions.

    Louise, enjoy making many Magical and Imagineering Memories!
