Disney World Transportation Map and Guide
Disney Transport is a massive public transportation system at Disney World which 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 as well as that stay off-property.
The system consists of buses, monorails, and 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 from resorts to theme parks, theme parks to theme parks, resorts to resorts, as well as to Disney Springs (the entertainment, dining, and shopping 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 for your destination. For detailed information about transportation routes and pick-up locations to and from each Disney Resort listed on the map, continue reading.
How Does Disney World Transportation Work?
Disney provides transportation by means of 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 services 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, as well as 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. Every Disney Resort has stations/stops to catch various modes of transportation to a theme park, water park, and other destinations around Disney World.
(Note: For maps of the theme parks, water parks, Disney Resort hotels, and Disney Springs, please reference our comprehensive Disney World Map page for printable PDF maps.)
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 every in-park resort hotel 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 Disney Resorts, 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 1 hour before the park opens and stop running up to 2 hours after the park closes in the evening. Buses to/from Disney Springs remaining in operation until 2 a.m. Check with your Disney Resort for the most up-to-date 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.
Monorail Service at Disney World
With over 150,000 daily riders, the Disney World monorail is one of the most heavily used monorail systems in the world. 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.
Boat Service at Disney World
Guests of select Disney Resort hotels can embark on complimentary boat rides throughout the resort. Ferries, water taxis, and other Disney water transportation bring passengers to and from Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Disney Springs, and waterfront Disney Resorts. Most boats run at 15-30-minute intervals.

Transportation from Deluxe Disney Resorts to the Theme Parks
Guests staying at the Magic Kingdom-area resorts have the option of taking the monorail or boats to Magic Kingdom, and buses to the other theme parks and water parks. Because of its close proximity, guests staying at the Contemporary can walk to Magic Kingdom if they wish.

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

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. It may even be possible to walk directly to a nearby park from your hotel. 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.
*see below for resort-specific transportation options
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, then hop on a bus, monorail, or ferry to your destination from there. You may also find that heading to Disney Springs and catching a bus from there 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 service 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 p.m.
Disney's Magical Express Service
Guests staying at select Walt Disney Resort are eligible to receive complimentary motorcoach service between Orlando International Airport and Disney Resorts. The benefits include bypassing baggage claim, having your luggage delivered directly to your hotel room when you check-in and delivered to the airport when you check out, and free transportation to/from the airport when you arrive and check-out of your hotel. Magical Express is one of the best perks offered to Walt Disney World Resort guests (along with Extra Magic Hours) – so take advantage of it!
Note: Magical Express will operate throughout 2021 but Disney will no longer offer the service in 2022. Starting in Jan 2022, the "Mears Connect" shuttle will travel between the Orlando Airport and Disney World resorts. There IS a fare to use the service.

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 Disney Minnie Vans service or the standard on-demand ride services of Lyft and Uber. And yes, there's 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 the 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 service is available throughout Walt Disney World.
While cheaper than Minnie Vans and regular taxi service, 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.
Taxi
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 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 pick-up, or have your hotel's front desk call over to a Yellow Cab or taxi to wait for you.
