Our Travel Times for the Buses at Disney's Yacht Club

As we continue our popular travel times series, we’ll look at how long the bus routes take from Disney’s Yacht Club to other popular destinations. We consider complimentary transportation one of the most significant benefits available to resort guests. Let’s face it. If you take the bus or whatever mode available at your resort, your trip will be much more stress-free. You won’t have to worry about directions or parking logistics. It’s especially nice not to have to find your car after a long day in the parks!

Those staying at Disney’s Yacht Club will have access to several forms of complimentary transportation from the resort: the Skyliner, boats, buses, and walking paths. (You can walk or boat to Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios from this resort!)

Regarding the buses, you’ll need to take them when visiting the Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and Disney Springs. Yacht Club shares a bus service with the neighboring Beach Club and BoardWalk for Disney’s Animal Kingdom and Disney Springs. You’ll have two extra stops when traveling to those destinations, but you’ll be the first drop-off on the return trip. This is how the routes work:

Disney’s Yacht Club (Board Bus)
Disney’s Beach Club (1st Stop)
Disney’s BoardWalk (2nd Stop)
Disney’s Animal Kingdom (Destination)

on the return trip

Disney’s Animal Kingdom (Board Bus)
Disney’s Yacht Club (1st Stop)
Disney’s Beach Club (2nd Stop)
Disney’s BoardWalk (Last Stop)

*Extra buses service the resorts first thing in the morning when more people travel to the parks. So you won’t have to worry about extra stops until a little later in the day.

Yacht Club’s bus stop is to the left, almost immediately outside the resort’s front entrance. The entire stop is under a covered pavilion with a couple of benches.

Here are our average bus travel times from the Yacht Club. It’s important to note that these times do not include how long we waited for the bus. Wait times signs are available at the resort bus stop, indicating when the next bus will arrive. The times below are how long it takes to get from the resort to the destination. They are the average of several trips and do not consider extenuating circumstances like significant traffic. Also, remember our travel times include the extra stop at Disney’s Beach Club (and sometimes Boardwalk) for each route.

Yacht Club	Magic Kingdom	19 minutes
