COVID Testing Near Walt Disney World

Some travelers may need a to show a negative COVID-19 test upon returning home after a visit to Walt Disney World to shorten their quarantine period. Fortunately, there are two testing sites right near Disney World: one that does free COVID tests, and one that does paid COVID testing. Florida has been the model state in providing testing since the pandemic began, so it’s a good idea to get your test done here.

Each state has a different policy on how to quarantine when returning from Florida, or any other state. These policies can range from guidelines to executive orders and they change all the time. I recommend that you go to your state’s official COVID-19 website for the most current information on travel advisories.

Get there 20-30 minutes prior to opening so that your wait is shorter. Bring a fully charged phone. There are two lines, one for individuals and one for groups / families. The line for individuals moves faster. If you don’t have children with you, consider using the individuals line.
