One of our favorite ways to get from Disney Springs to the neighboring resorts is the Sassagoula River Cruise boats. It’s a lovely, tranquil boat ride between the four nearby Resort hotels and the variety of dining and shopping options at Disney Springs. We’ve been known to take the free water taxis up and down the river just for fun, checking out the local flora and fauna and enjoying the sun (or sunsets).
The Sassagoula River boats run between Disney Springs and the resorts at Saratoga Springs, Old Key West, and both Port Orleans-Riverside and Port Orleans-French Quarter.
Unfortunately, the vagaries of Florida weather has made the use of those water taxis temporarily unavailable, as water levels in the Sassagoula River are currently too low for the boats to operate safely.
In the meantime, additional Disney bus service is being offered between the Springs and the Resorts from the Town Center Bus Depot area. It can be found between the Orange and Lime garages at Disney Springs.
Central Florida is approaching the “rainy season” of the year, so hopefully water levels will return to normal before too long. Signs at the loading docks are informing guests as to whether boats are operating each day.
