Trying to find info on por riverside bus or ferry routes to mk,ak,and downtown disn

[nikkyluvsmickey]

Is there a direct route to the parks or do i have to bus hop?

We rode a direct bus from there to the parks. I remember several stops along the way to our room. The ferry we never tried, but I know it went to DTD. I was shell shocked over the size. I was use to getting to the cafeteria, shop, and check in of the Values walking about with ease.
I had to drive to everything at POR. There were no cost efficient options to feed the family on site. But, it was beautiful. Unfortunately the days we were there it was a stuck storm system. The rain had the pools over flowed, so never did enjoy the grounds.

There is direct bus transportation to all of the parks. You can either take a bus or the boat to DTD.

I think the first response was a typo, because there is no boat transportation from POR to any park. The only boat service is to DTD.

POR has direct bus service to all of the parks, but there are multiple bus stops within POR and sometimes bus service is shared with POFQ. As a result, depending on where you need to board or get off of the bus, you may have to make one or more stops on the way to a park or before you get to your stop on the way back.

Sorry, that was a typo. I meant bus. You can't take a boat to any park.

I've stayed at the POR and stayed in the Mansion section n Oak Manor and had no problem getting around the resort. There are 4 bus stops throughout the resort, however depending on the time of day and park the buses may stop at POFQ first.
The POR also has a food court, I found the selection to be okay, the values do have bigger food courts, but prices for most items are pretty much the same.
To the OP, here is a link from Deb Will site for info on the POR, there is also a link for a resort map. The resort is spread out but I enjoyed walking around the resort, the theming is really neat. http://allears.net/acc/faq_dxl.htm

Hi: What time do the first buses leave from POR to the theme parks? I have two ADRs for 8:05, and I'm concerned about getting there on time!

While this is a great site for information on the Port Orleans resorts, it unfortunately repeats the incorrect information that the buses start running one hour before the parks open.
