Planning

Getting to Disneyland without a car

Updated September 25, 2026. Routes, fares, and hotel shuttles change. Confirm ART and hotel transport details before you travel.

Skipping a rental car is common for Disneyland Resort trips — especially if you stay in the Anaheim Resort walk radius.

Walkable hotels

Many hotels are a 5–20 minute walk to the security area. Factor heat, strollers, and evening tiredness; Soft-day evenings are easier than Peak exits on foot.

Anaheim Resort Transportation (ART)

ART connects many hotels and the resort area. Buy/boarding rules change — use official ART information for routes and tickets. Great when your hotel isn’t comfortably walkable.

Rideshare

Uber/Lyft to the official resort drop-off beats parking on Peak days. Budget surge pricing around park open and close.

Airports

SNA (Orange County) is closest; LAX/ONT/BUR need longer shuttles or rideshares. Shared airport shuttles exist — compare door-to-door time vs cost.
