Can you take the gondola from Epcot to Magic Kingdom?

In addition, the Epcot station puts you within a short walk to the Boardwalk entertainment district where you'll find lots of restaurants and things to do. Important note: You can't get to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, or Disney Springs from the Disney Skyliner.



You cannot take a direct gondola (Disney Skyliner) trip from Epcot to Magic Kingdom. The Disney Skyliner system only connects Epcot (at the International Gateway entrance) and Disney's Hollywood Studios to several resort hotels, such as the Riviera and Art of Animation. To travel from Epcot to Magic Kingdom using Disney's transportation, you would typically use the Monorail. This involves taking the Epcot Monorail to the Transportation and Ticket Center (TTC) and then transferring to either the Magic Kingdom Monorail or the Ferryboat. While you could technically combine a Skyliner ride with a bus or Monorail, it would be a very roundabout journey. For a guest at the Epcot International Gateway, the fastest way to get to Magic Kingdom in 2026 is usually to take a direct Disney bus from one of the nearby Crescent Lake resorts (like the Beach Club) or to use a rideshare service like Uber or a Disney "Minnie Van."
