The way that one gets to Fantasyland changes from person to person.
However, regardless of what mode of transportation is used, they will all have two things in common-
1. They will be provided by Fantasyland Inc.
At a reasonable price, of course
2. They will not be able to access their mode of transportation again until AFTER the tour has begun.

Common Ways used to get to FantasylandAs mentioned earlier, one can get to Fantasyland in a variety of ways. Here's a few of the more requested forms. Teleportation/Portals: Most commonly used by those who want the quickest (and cheapest) way to get to Fantasyland, the portals tend to be the most popular form. However, there are a few issues with portals, which while mentioned, tend to be looked over as they are written in very tiny type.
Portals depend on being maintained on both the sending and the receiving sides. In the best case scenario, should the receiving side not be open... The portal won't work and the tourist trying to use it will simply stay put.
In the worst case scenario, the tourist will enter the portal and be transported somewhere else on the same side as the sending portal. On occasion, that isn't such a bad thing and the tourist will show up in another room. However, more likely than not, the tourist will show up somewhere dangerous, such as... underground, deep under water, or inside a danger machine or area.
Thankfully, since the opening of Fantasyland Tours, there has only been such mistake made (and as can be guessed, the man responsible for such negligent behavior has been properly punished).
Other issues that occasionally occur (but not often, of course!) are that of changes in shape, height, weight, etc. There have been cases where a group will use the portal and one person will wind up taller while another person from the same group ends up shorter. While this is very rarely dangerous, it can be a bit of an annoyance to deal with. However, in the case that this does happen, there are plenty of clerics and mages who can be called in to sort out the problem.
By Plane/ship
As Fantasyland is literally a completely different world, one cannot get there by car. Thusly, there is a Fantasyland Tour Shuttle, which provides a way to get back and forth between Earth and Fantasyland.
Please note that in order to keep Fantasyland from being contaminated by Earth's technology, the shuttle lands quite a bit away from any and all existing settlements and does not have a permanent landing "pad".
After arrival, tourists must take another means to get to their Tour starting point, be it going on foot, taking a carriage, going on a ferry, or by using some other magical means.
Anyone who chooses this method to travel generally arrives at least several days ahead of time and typically is assigned a private guide for the duration that it takes to arrive at the Tourist starting point.
Typically, this method is a bit... pricier than teleportation, but it is surprisingly safer and allows for more time on Fantasyland.
