From $605 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Boca Raton to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.

Book with the address in Boca Raton and the pickup time; the driver confirms the details the day before and is waiting at the door when you come out. Luggage is loaded for you, the whole vehicle is reserved for your group, and the drive north to the resort runs without transfers or extra pickups.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge Resort is a safari-themed hotel that sits inside the Walt Disney World region, close to the Animal Kingdom theme park. It was built to feel like a lodge set down in the wild, and that idea runs through the whole property rather than showing up in a single lobby feature. For a family heading to Orlando, it works as both a place to sleep and a destination in its own right, which is part of why so numerous guests select it over a plainer room nearer the parks.
The heart of it is the savanna. Grassy expanses curl around the buildings, and giraffes, zebras and other animals graze within sight of numerous rooms and dedicated viewing areas. Guests can watch the herds move for long stretches without leaving the property, and that lodge-in-the-wild atmosphere is something almost nothing else in Orlando matches. Children in particular tend to settle in front of a window or a viewing rail and lose track of time, which gives parents a rare quiet moment after a long day.
Beyond the animals, the resort fills out with pools, themed restaurants and simple links into the rest of the Walt Disney World region through Disney’s own transport. That means a park morning is only a short hop once you are settled in. Since your ride ends at the resort entrance itself, the trip is over the moment the doors open in front of you, with no last stretch to sort out and no extra leg between the car and check-in.
The ride begins at whatever Boca Raton address you give us — your home, your hotel or an office. At the agreed time your chauffeur pulls up, loads the luggage into the vehicle, and drives the full route north to Orlando with the same car and the same driver the whole way. There is no airport, no terminal and no change of vehicle along the road, just one private trip from your door to the resort entrance.
Because it is a private booking, the pickup hour is built around your plans rather than a fixed timetable. Tell us at booking about a dining reservation, an early park entry or a check-in slot, and we work the departure backward from it, leaving a cushion where you have a firm arrival time. On the day itself the driver watches conditions and adjusts so the plan still holds, and everyone in your party rides together the entire way.

A relaxed start to the two of us being on vacation — from Boca Raton to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge Resort with nothing to think about. Would book again in a heartbeat.

Didn’t feel like a long drive north on my own, so I booked a private SUV from Boca Raton to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge Resort and let someone else handle the road. The driver was a safe, steady driver, so I could actually relax. The driver got the stroller and all the bags in so I didn’t have to lift a thing. Can’t recommend it enough.
