Getting to the Bon Voyage Adventure Breakfast From Epcot

[Michelle Young]

Hi Everyone

We have a 10:25 ADR the Bon Voyage Breakfast and right now our plan is to get to Epcot at rope drop, do Test Track and maybe Mission Space then head over to the international gateway to get to the Broadwalk.

I am wondering will we be allowed into World Show Case to get the gateway or should we do the bus from Epcot to the resort?

Thank you to all who help out.....So happy I got this ADR for a party of 10!!!!!!
My youngest DD is a Tangled fan and my oldest is a Mermaid fan....this breakfast is prefect for us!!!

What time does Epcot open that day? I would be concerned with doing rope drop, then the 2 rides then heading over to the Boardwalk. Boardwalk is my home resort and when going thru International Gateway before World Showcase is open you can only go thru to United Kingdom and Canada. Also, from Test Track to Mission Space to the Gateway is a good distance plus are you walking to the restaurant or taking the boat? The reason I ask is if you take the boat from the Gateway it goes to Yacht/Beach Club first then Boardwalk then to Swan/Dolphin. Plus if the boat isn't there you have to wait. Personally, I would do rope drop then start heading over to International Gateway and the restaurant. With the party of 10 there are too many variables for things to go not as planned.

Def. walk through World Showcase to get there (even though it's before 11), I would assume you wouldn't have an issue leaving if you explained to the CM why. -They have ppl. who walk through when they're coming from International Gateway. A bus would take MUCH longer.

Also, as you have planned, I'd def. get Test Track out of the way at rope drop and then if you have time you could do MS before leaving too. You'll def. be fine with time as far as Test Track's concerned and often times you could also squeeze in Mission Space. I'd be heading from the TT/MS area to the restaurant around 10...and I'd walk...if you're planning on using the boat, then maybe leave the area around 9:45, but that should still be enough time to get TT done.

Thank you for taking the time to reply....

I would RD Test Track then start heading over. If you get off Test Track very quickly you may be able to do MS but I would view it as a bonus if you can fit it in. Walk towards Canada in the WS. The right side is open so people can get back to their hotels on Crescent Lake and the bakery in France opens for breakfast at 9. I'm not positive, but I don't think there even is a bus to Boardwalk from Epcot. Y&BC doesn't have one so I'm thinking they don't either.

There is no bus from Epcot to the Boardwalk. You enter/exit at International Gateway (just after the UK) and then either walk or take a boat. There will be no issues with you walkng through that part of World Showcase. If anyone questions you, just say you are going to the Boardwalk. You should aim to leave the Test Track/Mission Space area by 9:45AM and then start walking towards the Boardwalk. I believe they still suggest that you checkin 15 minutes before your ADR time, so that would be 10:10AM. It's a 10 minute walk from international gateway, then maybe another 10-15 minutes from test track area.

Enjoy your breakfast! We've got an ADR for October that we're looking forward to!

BTW BoardWalk is the first stop on the boat when leaving from IG. It's faster to walk from IG than to take the boat, but if you need to save your feet or have someone with mobility issues, the "cruise" is less than 10 minutes from leaving the dock, and the restaurant is on your left close to the BW dock.

I don't believe there are buses from Epcot to the Epcot resort. The walk from TT to the international gateway via Canada/UK is probably only 10 minutes. Don't worry about that at all, and its maybe 5 minutes from the IG to the Boardwalk. Enjoy the wait times right at RD, don't stress!

I'll reiterate what other PP's have said. You will have no problem walking through the Canada/UK section of WS to exit at IG and go to the Boardwalk (as others have said, there's no bus from EP to Boardwalk). As you've planned, I would hit TT at RD and then see what time it is. I would aim to be off any ride in FW and heading toward WS/IG/Boardwalk by 10:00 am. That will give you plenty of time to walk through WS and out IG. If there isn't a boat right at the IG entrance, I would walk. It's only about 5 minutes from IG to Trattoria.
