The Walt Disney World Resort provides complimentary animal kingdom lodge transportation to almost every destination on the property. Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge shuttle does not share bus transportation with any other resort hotel. Check with your resort concierge desk for information.
| Travel to Theme park and Attraction Areas |
|
Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom: Take an appropriately marked animal kingdom lodge shuttle bus directly to the park. |
|
Disney Springs Area: Take the bus marked for Disney Springs. |
|
Blizzard Beach Water Park: Take the animal kingdom lodge to magic kingdom and transfer to the bus stop marked for Blizzard Beach. |

*Check park hours as alternative routes may be required due to bus schedules.*
| Travel to Resort Hotels |
Animal kingdom transportation to other Disney Resort hotels for dining experiences such as Whispering Canyon or Cape May Buffet, and for dinner shows like Spirit of Aloha and Hoop De Doo Review requires an extra step or two. Bus service does not run between resorts, so travel to the nearest park and transfer to another bus is necessary. The recommended steps are below:
|
Animal Kingdom Lodge Internal Travel: Guests traveling back and forth between Jambo House and Kidani Village can use internal shuttle or walk. |
|
Contemporary, Polynesian, and Grand Floridian: Take the animal kingdom lodge to Magic Kingdom, then take the monorail or water taxi to your resort. Guests can also walk to the Contemporary Resort. |
|
Fort Wilderness Campground: Take the animal kingdom lodge to Magic Kingdom, then take the water taxi to the Campground. Pioneer Hall is within walking distance. |
|
Wilderness Lodge: Take the bus to Magic Kingdom, then take either a bus or water taxi to Wilderness Lodge. |
|
All other Resorts: Take the bus to Animal Kingdom Park (or Disney Springs if after hours) and then transfer to the bus for the resort of your choice. |
*Some animal kingdom lodge transportation options may be affected by inclement weather so check with Cast Members for alternate options.*
