Disney’s Yacht Club Resort Guide

Disney’s Yacht Club Resort 1700 Epcot Resorts Blvd. Lake Buena Vista, 32830 Phone: (407) 934-7000 Fax: (407) 934-3450

Deluxe Resort Classification Located in the Epcot resort area Check In: 3:00 p.m. / Check Out: 11:00 a.m.

Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is a Deluxe Disney resort, located within easy walking distance of Epcot’s International Gateway entrance and of the BoardWalk’s entertainment and dining venues. The Yacht Club Resort is elegant, with nautical theming reminiscent of the Nantucket in the 1880s. Most importantly, Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is appealing to the Old Salts among us, as well as those landlubbers who just enjoy a stroll along the beachfront. The floors are hardwood, the decor is brass, and comfy chairs abound- add in a sand-bottom pool that really is a mini-water park, and you’ve got the makings of a great vacation

Disney’s Yacht Club Resort VIP Top Tips

While room requests are not guaranteed , at the Yacht Club ask to be closest to the lobby to limit the amount of walking needed to the pool area and transportation to the Theme Parks.

The Yacht Club has a beautiful wedding gazebo in its gardens. From the balconies of some of the Garden View and Water View rooms, you can overlook this area and glimpse a Disney wedding.

At Disney’s Yacht Club Resort , all rooms have a full balcony or patio.

Enjoy the close proximity to Epcot’s World Showcase . While there is a boat launch available at Epcot, you can get there faster by walking.

You can access Disney’s Hollywood Studios by boat. You may also enjoy a brisk walk around the BoardWalk down to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. In general, you may find the boat ride shorter than walking to Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

These resorts offer one of the best pools on Walt Disney World property. While separate, the Yacht & Beach Club Resorts share the pool area. There is a “shipwreck” that offers the entry point to the main water slide. Some areas of the pool have a sandy bottom.

These resort hotels are located near the BoardWalk, offering a short walk to additional restaurants and nightlife that do not require park admission.

Sometimes Disney’s bus transportation may share buses with the other resort hotels in the Epcot area around the BoardWalk. If you find yourself stopping at multiple stops, you may want to get off at the first stop and just walk the rest of the way. This is sometimes quicker than stopping at each resort hotel if the bus loop is being shared with multiple resorts.

Walking from Hollywood Studios to Epcot via the Boardwalk : This guide details the walking path between Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Epcot. On your way between the two theme parks, you can stop at the Boardwalk, Beach Club, or Yacht Club.

Complete Guide to Walt Disney World Bus Transportation

There are a lot of things about Walt Disney World that set it apart from other theme parks, but one of the most convenient perks of visiting has to be the Disney bus system.

Offered free of charge, the buses will take you to and from the theme parks and your Disney resort , as well as from park to park when hopping during your stay.

Ready to get going? Read on for our guide to the Walt Disney World bus system.

In this article

How the Disney World Bus System Works

Disney’s bus service is the main mode of transportation for anyone trying to get around the entire Walt Disney World Resort area. Buses go just about everywhere on property, including the hotels, theme parks, Disney Springs, and the water parks (though the water parks often do require a transfer).

All guests can use the bus system, not just guests staying onsite . Per Disney policy, anyone visiting the theme parks can leave their cars parked and use a bus to hop to another park, visit a resort, or go to Disney Springs.

And the best part? Using the buses is completely free — all you have to do is hop on.

Looking for more info on getting around Walt Disney World? Make sure to visit our Complete Guide to Disney World Transportation for help!

Disney World Bus Schedule

Theme parks.

In the mornings, Disney buses begin operating approximately 45 to 60 minutes before each theme park opens. They continue running until about one hour after the parks close.

Disney Springs

The WDW bus routes between the resorts and Disney Springs typically start around 45–60 minutes before it opens, and buses will continue to operate until around 12:30 a.m.

How frequently do the Disney buses run?

While frequency can certainly vary no matter what type of Disney park transportation you’re using, you can typically expect that a bus will show up about every 20 minutes.

How to Use Disney World Buses

Finding bus stops.

Disney bus stops are typically clearly marked and easy to find — after all, they do require a good bit of space!

If you need a little help, the map in your My Disney Experience app can be of service, too. Finding the bus at the park is easy if that’s how you got there, since all you have to do is return to the place where you were dropped off, but at certain resorts, it can be a bit trickier – especially if there are multiple stops.

Here’s what you need to know to find your bus stop anywhere at Disney World:

Magic Kingdom

Magic Kingdom’s bus stops can be found outside the entrance to the park, near the ferry boat launch.

At Epcot, if you’re facing the park entrance, the bus stops will be to the right.

Hollywood Studios

The bus stops at Hollywood Studios are found outside of the entrance to the park past the Disney Skyliner station.

Animal Kingdom

The bus stops at Animal Kingdom are directly outside of the entrance to the park.

The bus stops at Disney Springs can be found near the Town Center area.

Typhoon Lagoon

The bus stop at Typhoon Lagoon is right outside of the entrance to the water park.

Tips for Boarding and Seating

• The bus typically has two sets of doors you can use — one in the front, near the driver, and one towards the middle that’s used for wheelchair boarding. You can also use that rear door for exiting the bus, too.
• The seats closest to the doors will be the first off the bus. This is good to know if you’re trying to make a mad dash to rope drop, when every second counts.
• Only a certain number of wheelchairs and/or ECVs will make it onto each bus. Most can accommodate 2 at the same time, so be aware that you may face longer wait times for a bus if you’re using one, especially during busy times.
• If you’re using a stroller, you will need to fold it before you board the bus.

Finding Bus Times on the My Disney Experience App

One of the perks of using Disney buses is that in recent years, it’s become easier than ever to know when to expect a bus – but only if you’re leaving from your resort.

Resort Bus Wait Times

If you’re leaving from your resort, you can check the video monitors at the Disney bus stops to see what time the next bus to each park should be arriving.

You can also check My Disney Experience to see bus times from your resort by navigating to your resort on the app, and then click “see bus times.”

Unfortunately, at this time, there’s no way to see bus times from the parks, only to the parks.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Disney Buses

• If you flew to Florida and you’re staying onsite, you don’t have to worry about the extra expense of renting a car, which is especially helpful if you’re traveling with a child who would need a car seat if you rented a car or used a service like Uber or Lyft.
• Another Disney bus advantage: If you’re drinking, you don’t have to worry about driving or finding a way back to your resort; the bus will be ready and waiting for you.
• The buses are so convenient after a long day at the parks when you’re tired and don’t want to drive, and may of them also have charging ports and wifi.
• The major downside is that there can be long lines and no available seats during busy travel times like just before park open and after fireworks/around park closing.
• Some resorts have multiple bus stops, which can extend travel time.

Tips and Tricks for Disney Buses

• If you’re hoping to avoid bus crowds at Disney, you’ll want to make sure you’re traveling outside of peak times. If you’re heading out to the parks, mornings are typically the busiest, and you may end up waiting for more than one bus to come before you’re able to board. To combat that, you’ll want to head out extra early (at least an hour before park open, if not sooner) or late — by 10 or 11 a.m., those lines should be looking a lot shorter.
• Conversely, leaving the parks, the buses are always going to be crowded around the time that fireworks end (if you’re at Magic Kingdom ) and around park closing. Your best bet is to head for the bus about an hour before closing to avoid the masses.
• If you’re planning to watch fireworks at Magic Kingdom, you may have luck making a late dinner reservation after fireworks or grabbing a snack and hanging out as the crowds leave, and then heading to the bus.
• Planning to travel during the busiest times of the year, like around the holiday season? You’ll want to give yourself extra time, because getting from point A to point B — and scanning into the park — is bound to take longer than usual (especially if you’re visiting the week of Thanksgiving or the weeks of Christmas and New Year’s).
• If you’re planning to return to your resort after park closing, be aware that buses typically run until one hour after park close, and even later on nights where holiday parties or After Hours events are being held at the parks.
• The absolute best Disney bus hack is planning ahead . A trip to Disney World can be chaotic in the absolute best way, but that means it’s easy to get off track or leave the hotel room later than you intended. Give yourself plenty of extra time to get where you need to go!

Disney Bus FAQs

Got questions about using the Disney World buses? We’ve got answers!

How often do Disney buses run?

Disney buses run about every 20 minutes, though sometimes there may be delays, especially during busier times of the year.

Do Disney buses go to all the parks?

Yes. A bus will take you from your resort or from another park to Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom, along with Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach (with a transfer). However, buses at Disney Springs will only take you to the resorts, not the parks.

Are the buses free?

Buses are free for anyone at Disney World to use, even those who aren’t staying at a resort.

Can I take a bus directly from one park to another?

Can I take a bus from Disney Springs to a park?

Nope! You’ll have to go to a resort first and then transfer to a park bus there.

Do I have to fold my stroller?

Yes. Unlike when you board the monorail or the Skyliner, you do have to fold your stroller in order to ride a Disney bus.

Do Disney buses accommodate wheelchairs?

Yes. Each Disney bus can accommodate two wheelchairs or ECVs.

Is there bus service during Early Theme Park Entry?

Yes. Buses will begin running about 45-60 minutes before Early Theme Park Entry begins.

Is there bus service for events like Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, and After Hours?

Yes. Buses will be running until about an hour after the event comes to an end.

How late do buses run after the parks close?

Buses run until about an hour after the parks close.

Can I track bus arrival time?

Yes — kind of! If you’re leaving from a Disney resort, you can see your bus’ approximate arrival time on the monitors by the bus stop or using your My Disney Experience app, but you can’t track the bus in real time, and you can’t track wait times if you are at a park waiting for a bus there.

Are there buses to non-Disney hotels?

If you’re staying off property, some non-Disney hotels will offer their own shuttle service, but those are separate from Disney’s buses. Ask your hotel for details about shuttle times and where pick up and drop off will be at each park.

Can I take a Disney bus to the airport?

Not anymore. While Disney once offered the complimentary Magical Express service, it ended in 2022.

What do I do if a bus is full?

If a bus is full, you’ll have to wait for the next one — usually around 20 minutes.

Can I bring food and drinks on a bus?

Food and beverages (like your morning coffee) are allowed on the bus, but you’ll definitely want to use caution here! You may not want to bring any food that’s going to make a mess, and it’s not the ideal place to eat, either — many times, you’ll be in very close quarters.

Are pets allowed?

Pets are not allowed on Disney buses or at the Disney theme parks. Service animals are allowed to accompany their owners.

Alternatives to Disney Buses

Aside from the buses, there are a few Disney transportation alternatives that will help you get around the parks and resorts:

Guests staying at a resort on the monorail can use it to get to both Magic Kingdom and Epcot. Those resorts include the Contemporary, the Grand Floridian, and the Polynesian. If you’re visiting one of the parks or resorts mentioned above, you’re also free to use it to get to anywhere on the WDW monorail service line. The monorail also goes to the Transportation and Ticket Center, where you will use it (or the ferry) to get to and from Magic Kingdom.

Disney Skyliner

The Disney Skyliner is one of the newer additions to the Disney transportation line up. With stations at Caribbean Beach, Pop Century, Riviera, and Art of Animation, guests can use the Skyliner to get to Hollywood Studios and the International Gateway entrance of Epcot (near World Showcase). Some guests prefer the Disney Skyliner vs. the bus because it offers a scenic view and can sometimes be faster than the buses are

Every park except for Animal Kingdom also offers boat transportation that will take you to certain parks and resorts. The Friendship Boats have stops at Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Yacht & Beach Club, the BoardWalk, and Swan & Dolphin. There are also boats that travel along the Bay Lake area, stopping at Magic Kingdom, Fort Wilderness, the Grand Floridian, the Polynesian, and Wilderness Lodge. A separate boat route travels between the Contemporary, Fort Wilderness, and Wilderness Lodge.

If you’re staying in the Disney Springs area, you’ll have access to the Sassagoula River Cruise. This boat has stops at Port Orleans (both Riverside and French Quarter), Old Key West, Saratoga Springs, and Disney Springs.

Walking Paths

Though less common, there are a few walking paths that will get you to different parks and resorts, but some of the walks take longer than others. For example, you can walk from the Contemporary to the Magic Kingdom in a matter of minutes, but if you’re following the path that goes all the way around from the Polynesian (running through the Grand Floridian along the way), it’s going to take a bit longer.

Guests staying at the Yacht & Beach Club, the BoardWalk, and the Swan & Dolphin are able to walk to Hollywood Studios and Epcot. There’s also a walking path between Saratoga Springs and Disney Springs.

How to Use the Disney Transportation Map and Guide

The massive Walt Disney World Resort transportation system can be confusing. Use our Disney World Transportation Map/Guide to navigate your way around the park. We provide the bus, monorail, and boat routes you will need to reach your destination.

To use the interactive Disney World Transportation Map and Guide, simply click on the name of the Disney Resort you wish to depart from or arrive at. You will see the Disney transportation options available to you. The transportation routes are color-coded and highlighted to correspond with the information in the legend key. Note that certain destinations do not have direct transportation options, and you may need to take a connecting mode of transportation to reach your destination.

Walt Disney World Transportation Map and Guide

Disney Transport  is a massive public transportation system at Disney World that provides efficient transportation within the park. All modes of Disney transportation are complementary (i.e., FREE) and open to guests staying at a Disney Resort and staying off-property.

The system consists of buses, monorails, watercraft (water taxis, boats, and ferries), and other assorted modes of transport heading to areas throughout Disney World. Disney Transport provides guests with a wide variety of transportation options, including resorts to theme parks, theme parks to theme parks, resorts to resorts, and Disney Springs (the shopping, dining, and entertainment district). In other words, where ever you want to go to Disney World, you can get there using some form of Disney transportation. Plus, there are taxi services like Uber and Lyft within the park if you so choose.

Because of Disney’s large size – 25 Disney Resorts, 4 theme parks, and two water parks – deciding which mode of transportation you should use to get from point A to point B can be confusing. Thus, we have created a Disney World transportation map to help you find the best route to your destination. Continue reading for detailed information about transportation routes and pickup locations to and from each Disney Resort listed on the map.

How Does Walt Disney World Resort Transportation Work?

Disney provides transportation using buses, ferries/boats, monorails, as well as a few other options like railroad and parking lot trams. One of the great things about Disney transportation lines is that it is entirely free to use, which means you can potentially spend no money on transportation during your stay at the park. Of course, there are plenty of  parking lots if you choose to use your own car (you can even get free parking if you’re staying onsite) — and you can use taxi/Uber/Lyft options (extra charge) to speed up your arrival if necessary. However, if you plan on staying at a Disney Resort, there really is no need to open your wallet to get around Disney World.

As you can see from the Disney World Transportation Map, there is a wide availability of free transportation inside the park. In addition, every Disney Resort has stations/stops to catch various modes of transportation to a theme park, water park, and other destinations around Disney World.

B us Transportation at Disney World

Buses provide Disney World guests a mode of transportation in locations where monorail or boat are not available, and walking is not an option. You can find Disney’s bus service connecting all in-park Disney resort hotels with each theme park and water park (most buses provide direct service), to/from Disney Springs, and service between parks.  Like all modes of Disney transportation, bus service is complimentary and offered to both visitors staying at a Walt Disney World Resort as well as those staying  off-site .

On average, Disney buses run every 20 minutes from all Walt Disney World Resorts, although wait times can vary. To accommodate breakfast dining reservations and parks with Extra Magic Hours, bus service to the theme parks typically begins at 6:30-7 a.m. (running on a less frequent basis). Buses run at full operation roughly one hour before the park opens and stop running up to 2 hours after the park closes in the evening. Buses to/from Disney Springs remain in operation until 2 a.m. Check with your Walt Disney World Resort for the latest information.

Larger  Disney World hotels have bus stops inside the resort grounds, whereas smaller resorts typically have stops near the resort’s front entrance. The bus stops for theme parks are located near the park entrance, and the Disney Springs stop is located near the Town Center entrance.

Transportation and Ticket Center & Monorail Service at Disney World

With over 150,000 daily riders, the  Disney World monorail  is one of the world’s most heavily used monorail systems. There are three monorail lines at Disney, all originating from the  Transportation and Ticket Center  (TTC). The Disney World Transportation Map lists them all. Monorail service is free for Resort guests and non-guests.

The “ Resort ” monorail line loops between Magic Kingdom and the TTC, making stops at the Polynesian, Grand Floridian, and Contemporary Resorts.

The “ Express ” monorail bypasses the resorts and travels directly between the TTC and Magic Kingdom.

The “ Epcot ” monorail line provides service between the TTC and Epcot.

• Epcot or Magic Kingdom – Bus
• Hollywood Studios -Bus

Transportation from a Deluxe Walt Disney World Resort to the Theme Parks 

Guests staying at the Magic Kingdom-area resorts can take the monorail or boats to Magic Kingdom and buses to the other theme parks and water parks. Because of its proximity, guests staying at the Contemporary can walk to Magic Kingdom if they wish.

Guests staying at the Boardwalk-area resorts can either walk or take a ferry boat to Epcot and Hollywood Studios and buses to other theme parks and water parks.

Guests of other  Disney World Deluxe resorts  will use bus transportation to get to their theme park destination.

*see below for resort-specific transportation options

Transportation from Value and Moderate Disney Resorts to the Theme Parks

Guests staying at Value and Moderate resorts will  not  have access to either boats or monorail but  do  have access to buses that go directly to each theme park. Walking directly to a nearby park from your hotel may even be possible. For guests staying at Fort Wilderness, Disney offers a free shuttle service around the resort, making internal loops to take guests to different areas of the gigantic campground.

Transportation Between Resorts

Taking the free Disney transportation between parks can be confusing to the uninitiated. We recommend that you head to the nearest theme park and hop on a bus, monorail, or ferry to your destination. You may also find that heading to Disney Springs and catching a bus from there is an easy option. If time is of major concern, the quickest way to travel between resorts is by taxi/Uber/Lyft. This should cost you in the $10-$15 range, but the time you save may be worth the added expense.

Transportation from Disney Springs

Disney Springs  provides free parking throughout the day. While this may sound tempting to guests with cars, be warned that there is no direct transportation to the theme parks from Disney Springs. You can certainly take a bus or water taxi to other transportation hubs and find connecting services to the parks from there. Just be aware that transportation originating from Disney Springs will take longer than from other locations within Disney World. On a positive note, one-way service from the parks to Disney Springs  is  provided after 4 pm.

Disney Minnie Vans, Uber, Lyft, and Taxi Service

For those of you who don’t mind spending the extra money to get better service, then Walt Disney World has a few options for you. Guests can opt for the convenience and playfulness of the Disney Minnie Vans service or the standard on-demand ride services of Lyft and Uber. And yes, there are still plenty of old-school taxis within the park as well. Any of these options will improve your comfort level and save you time.

Disney Minnie Vans

Disney Minnie Vans is Walt Disney World’s on-demand ride service. These vehicles operate daily from 6:30 am to 12:30 am and are available to anyone within the park.

Although Disney has partnered with Lyft on this service,  Disney Minnie Vans  are actually operated by Disney and driven by Disney Cast Members (Disney employees). To schedule a Disney Minnie Van, you simply open the standard Lyft app and call for a pickup as you would for a normal Lyft ride.

As far as the vehicles go, the vans are more like midsize SUVs. They are painted red with white polka dots (a la Minnie Mouse). Each vehicle will hold six passengers and carry two adjustable car seats for children.

The cost of Minnie Vans is much higher than a taxi, Uber, and standard Lyft rides. Be aware the Guests can only be picked up in designated pickup zones and not from sidewalks or non-designated areas. Minnie Vans are able to drop you off directly at the Magic Kingdom or next to Pioneer Hall at Fort Wilderness or anywhere else you wish to go.

Disney Minnie Vans are a good option if you don’t mind paying for comfort and point-to-point convenience.

Lyft and Uber

On-demand Lyft and Uber services are available throughout the Walt Disney World Resort.

While cheaper than Minnie Vans and regular taxi services, be aware that “surge pricing” is in effect during periods of high demand. Prices for Lyft and Uber could potentially exceed taxi rates during this time. But, for the most part, Lyft and Uber will be the cheapest transportation option (other than the free Disney Transportation options listed above).

Using an on-demand ride service like Uber and Lyft is fairly straightforward. Just download one of the apps and use it on your Android or iPhone. Remember to stay put once you call for the car, so there is no confusion as you meet your driver.

Taxis are located throughout Walt Disney World Resort and use different brand names (Yellow Cab, City, Checker, or Safety). However, all the taxis are yellow, and all are operated by Mears Transportation (a company that has an official relationship with Disney). We recommend that you use the yellow cabs (sedans and vans) with meters, lest you pay more than you have to.

Call (407) 699-9999 to schedule a pickup, or have your hotel’s front desk call over to a Yellow Cab or taxi to wait for you.

Walk from Dolphin to Yacht Club

Earning My Ears

• Jun 19, 2023

Family and I are staying at Dolphin this week. We are headed to MK before our DCL this Saturday. I understand that transportation from Dolphin just drops you off at the TTC for MK. Has anyone just walked over to Yacht Club from Dolphin and taken Disney Buses to MK? If so, what is the easiest walk there...I'm assuming through the back where the boardwalk is. But we have never stayed at Dolphin before so trying to avoid walking around in circles LOL.  

2xcited2sleep

Dis veteran.

In theory, you could walk over. The shortest route is to come out of the Dolphin lobby take an immediate left and walk the path around the exterior of the Dolphin. That said, I'd imagine guests at the Yacht Club will not be thrilled to be paying what they're paying and "share" transportation. A Minnie Van or a ride share are other options.

Ralph&Pam said: You do not want to head toward the BW to get to the YC bus stop. That would be a much longer walk. In fact, it would be easier to catch the BW bus if you go in that direction. I suggest you look at the Google maps aerial view of the Epcot resorts around Crescent Lake to gain some advanced understanding of the local geography. The most direct route from the Dolphin to the Yacht Club follows the edge of the lake to the left as you leave the back door of the Dolphin (north and east on the map). You will then walk through the lobby of the YC to get to the bus stop for the park buses. Click to expand...

Retired and living 2 miles from The Castle.

From the Dolphin you really need to come out the entrance that leads to the boat dock. There is no "short cut" between the Dolphin and the YC. You'll walk towards the Swan and take a left up over the bridge towards the YC.

Earned My Ears 1992 - 2007

By the time you walk over to the YC, it might be just as easy to take the Dolphin bus and then the monorail or ferry over to the MK. Probably close to the same amount of time. And you won’t “offend” any YC guests.  

Mouseketeer

It wouldn’t be offensive to guests…people who aren’t guests go to YC/BC for character meals etc so it’s not like it’s YC only transportation. That goes for all the hotels…it’s Disney transportation not a particular hotels transportation

KellyKateri

Please don’t think you’ll offend YC guests, people have dining reservations and visit resorts all the time. If you want to take a nice short walk to yacht, do it!  

Enjoying my trip aboard The Metroliner!

Comparing guests that go to the resort for dining or seeing the resort is different than what OP is suggesting. Swan and Dolphin decided to no longer use Disney transportation and now provide their own.  

focusondisney

While people who aren’t staying at YC or BW do use Disney buses for dining etc, that’s not usually from the resort in early morning. We all know the buses can be very crowded at opening & closing. So I understand what @2excited2sleep meant. We’ve been staying at YC for about 25 years. We’ve also stayed at Dolphin & at monorail resorts. Personally, I don’t see a big advantage to walking from Swan or Dolphin to YC or BW. It’s 5-10 minute walk to the bus stop & then the wait for a bus. Or you wait for a bus at Dolphin & then take a 5-10 minute monorail ride. I’ve waited up to 30 minutes for a bus at YC. You might get there sooner than if you took the S/D bus & monorail. Or it might take you longer. It’s totally random if you’ll get lucky & a bus will show up right away or if you’ll wait longer than normal.

Disney’s Yacht Club Resort Transportation to Animal Kingdom: Navigating the Magic Efficiently

Guests staying at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort enjoy luxurious accommodations with nautical-themed décor, reminiscent of a New England yacht club. This resort is a lakeside hotel that is located within the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. When planning a day trip from Disney’s Yacht Club Resort to Disney’s Animal Kingdom, there are several transportation options available for your convenience.

You can utilize the complimentary bus service provided by Walt Disney World Resort to travel from Disney’s Yacht Club Resort to Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The buses operate approximately every 20 minutes, starting 45 minutes prior to park opening until one hour after park closing. Boarding the bus at the designated stop outside Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, you will arrive at Animal Kingdom’s main gate without any additional stops.

For a more personal commuting experience, you have the choice of the Minnie Van Service , which can be easily booked through the Lyft app. This special service offers direct transportation in a charming Disney-themed vehicle, allowing for a memorable and comfortable ride. Further, if you prefer to drive, parking at Animal Kingdom is available for a fee, and car rental services are offered at the resort for your convenience.

Free Bus Service

Free bus service refers to the complimentary transportation provided by Disney resorts, including Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, for guests traveling to various Disney parks, like Animal Kingdom. This service is included with your stay at the resort, offering a convenient and cost-effective option for moving between your guest area and the parks.

Bus Schedule and Availability

• Check the posted schedule near the resort’s bus stop for departure times to Animal Kingdom. Typically, buses run every 15-20 minutes.
• Ensure you arrive at the bus stop a few minutes earlier than the departure time to secure a spot, as these buses can become busy, especially during park opening and closing times.

Travel to Animal Kingdom

• Locate the bus service to Animal Kingdom specifically, as buses are destination-specific, including routes to Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and Disney Springs.
• Board the bus marked for Animal Kingdom. The journey from Disney’s Yacht Club Resort to Animal Kingdom usually takes around 20-25 minutes, depending on traffic within Walt Disney World.

Bus Features

• Enjoy comfortable seating and air conditioning on Disney buses.
• The bus service includes space for strollers and wheelchairs, ensuring accessibility for all guests.

Remember, the complimentary transportation by Disney World Transportation is a feature designed to enhance your resort experience, allowing you to travel to and from the theme parks effortlessly. Use this free Disney bus service to explore the magic of Walt Disney World without the added cost.

Can You Take Water Transportation From The Yacht Club?

There is no direct water transportation from the Yacht Club to the Animal Kingdom park. Guests staying at the Yacht Club can use bus services or other transportation options mentioned below to reach Animal Kingdom. Water transportation at the resort connects select resorts to nearby theme parks and Disney Springs, but Animal Kingdom is not accessible via water routes due to the Animal Kingdom park’s remote location and the layout of the waterways. To get to Animal Kingdom from the Yacht Club, use the complimentary bus service provided by Disney, which is specifically designed to transport guests between different parts of the resort, including Disney Springs, Typhoon Lagoon, Blizzard Beach and theme parks.

Can You Take The Monorail From The Yacht Club to Animal Kingdom Park?

Unfortunately, the Yacht Club is not connected to the Monorail and the Monorail does not serve Animal Kingdom park. However, that doesn’t mean that you can’t ride the Monorail during your stay! The monorail connects select destinations such as the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and nearby resorts, but not the Yacht Club or Animal Kingdom. During your visit make plans and reservations for dining at one of the resorts that on the Monorail line and you can use the Monorail to travel for your evening out! The monorail connects several opening-day resorts — the Contemporary, Polynesian, or Grand Floridian — where you can experience the Resort Monorail. This travel method requires you to first take a bus from the Yacht Club to one of these hotels.

Remember, while the resorts connected via the Resort Monorail provide easy access to the Magic Kingdom and Epcot, you will still need to use a bus or other Disney transportation options to reach Animal Kingdom. It’s important to plan for additional travel time due to transfers.

• Contemporary Resort: Here, the monorail glides through the main concourse. You can enjoy this experience by transferring from a Yacht Club bus.
• Polynesian Village Resort: The monorail station here is a short stroll from the main lobby. After arriving by bus, you can travel to other theme parks or resorts on the monorail loop.
• Grand Floridian Resort & Spa: This Victorian-style hotel is another stop on the Resort Monorail. Guests can switch from bus to monorail for a scenic route around the Seven Seas Lagoon.

Travel Tip: If you’re looking for the most efficient route to Animal Kingdom, it is to stay on the bus service directly linking the Yacht Club Resort to the park.

Can You Take The Disney Skyliner From The Yacht Club to Animal Kingdom park?

You cannot take the Disney Skyliner from the Yacht Club to Animal Kingdom Park. The Disney Skyliner is an aerial gondola system that connects select Walt Disney World Resort hotels with EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The Yacht Club Resort, while being in proximity to Epcot, does not have a direct Skyliner route to Animal Kingdom. Animal Kingdom is not served by the Disney Skyliner system.

However, you can use it to visit several other locations originating near Disney’s Yacht Club Resort area at the EPCOT International Gateway station.

While the Disney Skyliner does not provide direct service to Animal Kingdom, it does connect EPCOT and Hollywood Studios directly, with interchange routes to Disney’s Art of Animation Resort , Pop Century Resort, and Riviera Resort. To reach Animal Kingdom, you will disembark at the Hollywood Studios station and use a bus or other ground transportation options.

Walking Paths

No, despite the great ambitions of some of you to see how many steps you can get in, you cannot walk from the Yacht Club to Animal Kingdom Park. The distances between the Walt Disney World Resort hotels and the theme parks can be quite substantial, and the layout of the roads, as well as the natural geography of the area, do not support pedestrian access from the Yacht Club to Animal Kingdom. The resort is designed with specific pathways for walking and biking primarily within and between nearby resorts or attractions, not for long-distance travel across the entire property. Animal Kingdom is located several miles away from the Yacht Club, making walking impractical and unsafe due to the lack of designated pedestrian paths over such distances and the heavy vehicular traffic. Guests looking to travel from the Yacht Club to Animal Kingdom are encouraged to use the complimentary bus service or other Disney transportation options provided for convenience and safety.

Ride-Sharing Services

Ride-sharing services are transportation options that allow travelers to book a ride through a mobile application, which connects them with drivers who use their personal vehicles to take passengers to their desired locations. At Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, you will find that both Uber and Lyft operate as popular ride-sharing options. These services offer a convenient and efficient way for you to travel from the resort to Animal Kingdom, another theme park, or various attractions within the Disney World area.

To use ride-sharing services, follow these steps:

• Download the Lyft or Uber app to your smartphone and set up your account.
• After signing in, specify your pickup location at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort and set your destination to Animal Kingdom.
• Select your preferred ride option; standard sedans usually accommodate up to 4 passengers, and larger vehicles are available for bigger groups.
• Confirm your ride and wait for your driver at the designated pickup location at the resort.

For guests traveling to Orlando International Airport, ride-sharing can be a cost-effective and straightforward travel option. The price for a ride varies based on the time of day, traffic conditions, and the type of vehicle you select. During peak times, when the demand for ride-shares increases, rates may be higher due to surge pricing. Remember to consider your travel budget and plan accordingly.

The convenience of ride-sharing services at Disney resort properties includes the benefit of not worrying about navigating unfamiliar roads, dealing with parking, or waiting for shuttle buses. With these services, you enjoy direct transportation to your destination while someone else manages the driving.

Taxi Services

Taxi services constitute a form of private transportation for guests seeking to travel from Disney’s Yacht Club Resort to Animal Kingdom. When leaving the resort, you can find a taxi at the designated guest area for pickups. These taxis are typically operated by Mears Taxi, a well-established transportation provider in the Orlando area.

• Request a taxi at the resort’s concierge desk or hail one from the taxi stand.

For a personalized experience or if you are in a hurry, taxis offer a practical transportation option from your Disney resort to the Disney park. Remember to check for the latest fare information and availability before planning your trip.

Personal Vehicle Parking

Parking at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort follows specific regulations designed to provide convenience and orderliness for guests driving their personal vehicles. When you decide to travel from the resort to Animal Kingdom by car, you’ll find self-parking available for your use. Disney Resort guests are privy to the benefit of complimentary standard self-parking at the resort itself.

For your convenience, here is a breakdown of important considerations regarding personal vehicle parking:

• Location : Parking is located near the main entrance of the resort, ensuring easy access to your vehicle at all times.
• Cost : As a guest of Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, standard self-parking at the resort is included in your stay at no additional charge.
• Transportation Options : In addition to driving, you have several complimentary transportation options to Disney parks, including bus service and boat transportation, which can enhance your experience by alleviating the need to drive and park at the parks.
• Disney Park Parking : When driving to Animal Kingdom, remember that standard parking at the theme park is not complimentary and is subject to a parking fee unless you are a Disney World Annual Passholder.
• Arrival : Arrive early to ensure the best parking spots and to reduce travel time to the park entrance.
• Remember Your Spot : Make a note of your parking section at Animal Kingdom to facilitate an effortless return to your car after a day of adventure.

Should you choose to use your personal vehicle throughout your stay, you’ll enjoy the ease of complimentary parking at the resort and have the choice to pay for parking at the Disney parks, unless other free parking options apply to you.

Minnie Van Service

Minnie Vans are private ride services exclusive to guests of Disney Resorts, including Disney’s Yacht Club Resort. These services offer direct and comfortable transportation to theme parks, like Animal Kingdom.

Available Options: You can book a Minnie Van via the Lyft mobile app. Availability extends from early morning to late night, ensuring flexibility for your visit to Animal Kingdom or other destinations.

Cost Efficiency: The Minnie Van service is a premium option, with pricing dependent on distance traveled. Remember, standard Lyft services may offer lower rates.

Duration: A trip from Disney’s Yacht Club Resort to Animal Kingdom typically lasts around 20 minutes, though times may vary based on traffic conditions.

Car Services

These services range from standard sedans and town cars to more luxurious limousines.

Disney's Beach Club Resort

Walt Disney World Resorts Beach Club Resort | Rooms | Dining | Recreation | Transportation | Resort Map

One of the best features of Disney's Beach Club Resort ® is that it has the distinct advantage of its close proximity to Epcot ®. A short ten-minute walk is all that it takes to get to the International Gateway entrance of the World Showcase at Epcot . For guests who arrive at this entrance prior to the World Showcase “official” opening time of 11:00 a.m., there will be Cast Members to escort guests to Future World. Buses and Friendship launches will take guests to other Walt Disney World Resort destinations.

Magic Kingdom ® Park: Take the Magic Kingdom ® Park bus from the front of the resort. Bus service is shared by Disney's Beach Club Resort ®, and Disney's BoardWalk Resort ® as well. A leisurely, but more scenic alternative, is to walk through Epcot and take the Monorail to the Ticket & Transportation Center and switch to the Magic Kingdom ® Park Monorail from there.

Epcot : If it’s too hot to walk or if you simply want to conserve your energy, take the Friendship boat launch. But take note that the launch also stops at the Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin ® and Disney's BoardWalk Resort ® docks so the trip to Epcot could take up to 20 minutes.

Disney Hollywood Studios ®: Take a separate Friendship launch. As with the Epcot launch, service is shared with the other Crescent Lake resorts. Once again, this trip can take up to 20 minutes.

Disney's Animal Kingdom ® Theme Park: Take the Disney's Animal Kingdom ® Theme Park bus. However, in addition to Disney's Yacht & Beach Club Resort ® guests, the bus also makes stops at Disney's Boardwalk Resort and the Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin ® hotels.

Disney's Typhoon Lagoon ® Water Park: Take the Downtown Disney ® bus

Disney's Blizzard Beach ® Water Park: Take the Disney's Blizzard Beach ® Water Park bus

For those wishing to go anywhere else on (or off) property, Bell Services can get a taxi for you. The bus stop at Disney's Yacht Club ® Resort is located to the left as you exit the lobby, on the other side of the porte cochere (valet loading and unloading area).
