If visiting every Disney World Resort is on your bucket list, this Disney Resort Hopping Itinerary is for you.
What is resort hopping?
Easy—it’s checking out different Disney resorts to enjoy the unique atmosphere, activities, and dining, even if you’re not staying there. Best of all- it’s free. That makes it the perfect way to spend a non-park day and still get your Disney fix.
Does Disney World allow resort hopping?
Yes, resort hopping at Disney is allowed—but pool hopping is not. Another no-go? Parking at the resorts unless you have a dining reservation. Luckily Disney’s free transportation makes resort hopping easy.
Ready to start exploring?
This five-day Disney Resort hopping itinerary gives you enough time to fully explore every resort and enjoy everything they have to offer (see the full resort activity lists here). It’s perfect for a non-park trip that still delivers the Disney experience or for park-goers planning plenty of rest days.
Some resort activities are only available on certain days and times. Those are marked with a *. Check Magical Resort Guides for the current schedule. Most activities are free, but ones with a fee are marked with a ($).
Short on time? I’ve got you covered with the 3-day itinerary I followed – read my review here.
