Art of Animation to Other Popular Destinations
You might also want to visit other popular locations, like the resort hotels, during your vacation. Most of these destinations will require a transfer. Here are our suggestions for using complimentary transportation to get to these locations:
Monorail Resorts (Grand Floridian, Polynesian Village, and Disney’s Contemporary Resorts): Take a bus from Disney’s Art of Animation Resort to Magic Kingdom. At Magic Kingdom, you’ll walk through the security clearance. From there, you can boat, monorail, or walk to the Grand Floridian or Polynesian. You can also walk or take a monorail to the Contemporary.
Epcot Resorts (Beach Club, Yacht Club, BoardWalk, and Swan and Dolphin Resorts): Take the Skyliner from Disney’s Art of Animation Resort to Epcot’s International Gateway. From there, you can walk or boat to any of the resorts in the area.
Disney’s Wilderness Lodge or Fort Wilderness: Take the Skyliner to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Then, take a bus to either resort.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge: Take a bus to Disney’s Animal Kingdom park. Then, board the bus to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge.
Things You Need to Know
Transportation at Disney World is subject to availability and operating hours. For instance, taking a bus from a theme park to a resort might be challenging if you visit for an early morning breakfast. In the morning, the priority is getting guests to the park. So, if a bus transfer is required before 10:00 a.m., we usually take a car service for breakfast reservations.
It’s also important to note that some of the routes we’ve shared offer alternative options. For example, if you’re visiting Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, you might prefer to take the Skyliner to Hollywood Studios and then a bus to the hotel. We’ve tried to share the most straightforward ways.
