Is there a direct bus from Downtown Disney to the Magic Kingdom?

If there isn't a direct bus, I guess we could take the bus to a MK Resort, and then transfer to the monorail. I just wasn't sure if there was a direct bus or not. Thanks!

No, there's no direct bus from DTD to ANY of the theme parks. Reportedly, Disney stopped such buses when they figured out that off-site guests and day-trippers were parking at DTD for free, then taking the free buses to the parks, thus clogging up the lot so real shoppers couldn't park there.

Yup, from DTD to a theme park you have to go to a resort and then get on a theme park bus there, not a quick and efficient proposition.

thank you! I guess it makes sense why Disney made that change. Thanks for the info!

Best way to get from DTD to Magic Kingdom is to take the bus to the Contemporary. From there, you can either walk over to the Magic Kingdom(5-10 minutes) or take the monorail. You can also take the Grand Floridian or Polynesian bus and take the monorail.

But it is faster to park at the TTC and take the monorail or boat over to the MK instead of taking one or two buses and other transportation.
