Cirque Du Soleil to Rainforest Cafe

we have reservations to La Nouba for the 6pm show which I think finishes around 7.30pm. We then have an 8.30 reservation at rainforest café in DS.

I know these are on opposite sides of DS so how long do you think it would take to get round and is this plan realistic. I will have a 4 yr old walking so our pace is slower!

If it will be tight, is there anywhere to eat around the Cirque side?
Thanks!

You could get the ferry boat from Westside to Disney Springs.

It's approx 900 metres from Cirque to RFC, so you should easily be able to do that in 1 hour, even with a 4 year old in tow. Or, you can catch the boat from Westside to the Marketplace.

My concern would be a 4 year old happily waiting until 8.30pm+ for dinner. I know that mine would have been fast asleep by then. An early dinner might be a better idea, followed by a snack after the show. However, that's just based on what my children were like at that age.

sadly I have a non-sleeping child so midnight is not uncommon for him

having said that, he will probably sleep early that night so I will give him food before we go in as well!

It's pretty easily walkable particularly with the new walkway across the water.
But as suggested earlier, I think the ferry is probably the best option.

Just to add I'm sure it's doors at 6pm for a 6.30 start and the show goes on until 8pm. I still think you'll make it but less contingency time

Maybe switch from the RFC to House of Blues?. Only feet away, no worrying about not making a reservation time.
