Port Orleans Riverside or French Quarter for boat to Disney Springs?

[Maggie The Cat]

We want to go visit either hotel and then take boat to DS - which one has the boat or do they both?

 

[Pinnochio]

both

We hope to visit starting at French Quarter, then walk down to Riverside before taking the boat to DS. I just really want to experience the boat ride from Riverside but we really want to visit French Quarter more.

It’s a decently long boat ride from POFQ to DS. Don’t know there’s much to miss from POR-POFQ boat ride wise.

Do POR and POFQ share buses? If so, we'll just get off at the first stop.
If not, we will get on whichever bus comes first! Plan to catch one at DHS - we are staying at Beach Club.

I want to see both resorts, but I think the boat from POR passes some of the resort, so would be nice to float by.

 

[Pinnochio]

yes, the buses are shared

Not all the time. When we stayed at FQ, there were plenty of times we did not stop at Riverside. The bus would arrive at FQ empty and then go directly to the parks.

The first stop is always POFQ.

The first stop is always POFQ.

BTW, I meant FOFQ is always the first stop WHEN they’re making stops at both.

I have not timed it- but 15 minutes would be my guess. it's a nice ride though. Very relaxing!

How long does the boat ride take from Port Orleans French Quarter to Disney Springs?

It is about 15 minutes, but that doesn't factor in how long you might have to wait for the boat to show up.
