What is the estimated time it might take "joe average" to walk from each of the hotels to:

1) US?
2) IOA?

And secondly, what is the FASTEST mode of transport for each hotel (walking, boat, etc) to either place from each hotel?

The maps make it look like PBH is wayyyy far away, relative to HRH and RPR... is it THAT bad?

Thanks!

I timed our walk back from the parks to the PBH it took 12 minutes walking at a standard pace. It is a very nice walk along a beatifully landscaped pathway but its a pretty good honk especially after a long day at the parks. You should walk it atleast once just to see the plantlife but stick to the boats, when you can. Quite often at park closing there is a huge line to get on the boats so we rode the rickshaws once and took the shuttle once.

Shuttle??? What???? Yes thats right a shuttle. There is a shuttle service that goes to all three resorts. You can catch them next to the Universal Studios Entrance. There is never a line for them cause nobody says to much about them. However, there is a catch, timing is everything 'cuz there is only like three shuttles so it can be 25 mins or so between shuttles. So you may have to wait if you don't walk right out and get on like we did.

You can throw a rock from the US entrance and hit the HRH its really close.

HRH to USF = 5 minutes
RPR to IOA = 7 minutes
PBH to USF = 13 minutes

For the HRH, always walk unless you want to try the boat ride.
For the RPR and PBH, take a walk in the morning, then take the boat ride back.
