With four theme parks, two water parks, and dozens of resorts, getting around Walt Disney World can feel like its own adventure. Thankfully, Disney’s transportation system is free, efficient, and fun—especially for kids who see the buses, boats, monorails, and gondolas as rides of their own.
🚍 Buses: The backbone of Disney transportation, connecting every resort to every park. Strollers can usually be brought on board (folding required on busy routes).
🚡 Skyliner Gondolas: A huge hit with families, these colorful cabins soar above the property while offering great views of EPCOT and Hollywood Studios.
🚝 Monorail: The classic Disney ride that never gets old. Kids love sitting up front, while parents appreciate its speed and stroller access.
⛴ Boats & Ferries: Scenic options for reaching Magic Kingdom or Disney Springs. Evening rides across Seven Seas Lagoon are especially magical when Cinderella Castle is lit up.
💡 Parent Tips:
- Leave 30–60 minutes of extra time for transfers and park hopping.
- Use boat rides and Skyliner trips as “breaks” where kids can sit and relax.
- If staying late for fireworks, expect lines—plan a snack or stroller nap.
