Disney's Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World is a blockbuster-packed park where you can step into the worlds of your favorite movies and TV shows. From intergalactic adventures in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge to thrilling missions in Toy Story Land, it’s like starring in your own cinematic masterpiece — minus the awkward red carpet interviews!

Your stroller cannot exceed 31” (79cm) wide and 52” (132cm) long, and wagons/stroller wagons are not allowed.
You will need to park your stroller before entering attractions. There is usually stroller parking near most entrances.
Bring a stroller cover (or rent one from ScooterBug) to ensure you don't come back to a soggy stroller (yuck!)
Be prepared to collapse your stroller before boarding a Disney bus or boat. You can usually keep it upright in the Monorail and Skyliner.
Bring something, like a ribbon or sign, to distinguish your stroller from a sea of black strollers
You can rent strollers directly in the parks. These come in both a single and double stroller option and can carry up to 100 pounds. You can rent them for the entire day, but you cannot take them out of the park. They don’t have a ton of storage— just some storage pockets on the back.
The next option is to rent from a stroller rental company. My personal recommendation is Kingdom Stroller rentals. They do have a partnership with Disney, so they will actually deliver and pick up the stroller at your Disney World hotel, which is super convenient. They also have tons of different stroller options, and pricing varies on whichever option you rent.
I'm a self-taught graphic designer, wife & mama, born-and-raised FL girl, and your new official Disney Planner BFF.
I have loved Disney as long as I can remember. I was the girl that was Princess Jasmine for Halloween 3 years in a row because I was literally that obsessed. I also rewatched Beauty and the Beast on VHS so often that I eventually broke the tape. (90's kids, iykyk.)
I went to Disney World for the first time at 4 years old, but didn't get to go again until my late 20's. Even though I live almost 7 hours away, my little family & I try to go as often as we can. My daughter (who may be more obsessed with Disney Princesses than I am) says that Magic Kingdom is her favorite place in the world. I can't disagree with her.
My love for Disney World, plus me being a text-book Enneagram 2w3, led me down the path of Disney travel planning. I love using my Disney knowledge to help others have a relaxing and memory-filled family vacation.
