Hi there, Zoey! Welcome back to planDisney! Thank you so much for stopping back by and asking another wonderful Walt Disney World Resort vacation question!
The Disney Skyliner is an entirely unique way to travel in style around Walt Disney World Resort! Guests can board aerial gondolas decorated with beloved Disney characters and travel to multiple destinations. Currently, the Disney Skyliner connects Disney’s Riviera Resort, Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort, Disney’s Pop Century Resort, and Disney’s Art of Animation Resort with Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Riding on the Disney Skyliner is not only a quick way of getting to your destination but it also offers an amazing, never-before-seen view of Walt Disney World Resort from the skies along the way!
Guests are not required to have theme park reservations or advanced dining reservations if they would like to ride the Disney Skyliner! This means you can simply board an aerial gondola and get a treetop tour if you’d like! That being said, I would highly recommend dining at one of the many delicious restaurants along the way. One of my personal favorites is Topolino’s Terrace - Flavors of the Riviera. The dining location offers a combination of French and Italian-inspired dishes that are indulgent and delicious. You will also be treated to some amazing views that this rooftop location offers throughout your meal!
One strategy I have used in the past is visiting either Disney’s Hollywood Studios or Epcot during the day and then traveling to one of the Disney Resort hotels connected to the Disney Skyliner for either lunch or dinner. This way, you can fit in a bit of theme park time while also touring some locations you may not have seen before!
Regardless of what you do at your destination, you are sure to have a phenomenal time traveling aboard the Disney Skyliner!
I hope you have a magical visit to Walt Disney World Resort and please let us know if we can answer any additional questions for you!
