Is there transp. from blizzard beach TO downtown disney?

Or do we have to go to the closest resort.. (which one is this?) to catch THEIR bus to downtown disney? Can't find this info anywhere! (we are actually going to WinterSummerland mini golf place and then would like to head downtown to eat- trying to save some time!)

I don't think you can get to any parks from DTD - there used to be shuttles from there to the parks but they were discontinued because people would park there for the day for free instead of the park - parking lots.

I think this is correct - you can go from resorts to DTD via bus and boat, but not from a park to DTD. You'll have to go to one of the resorts, then catch their bus/boat.

(I tried going from Epcot to DTD a few years ago, and got very frustrated. I used the monorail to get to the Contemporary, and must have just missed their DTD bus. Nearly an hour and a half into it, I just gave up.)

I would actually recommend taking a taxi instead. It's much quicker, and while you'll have to pay taxi fare, to me, my time is totally worth it! After what I went through a few years back, I'm going to take a taxi from now on (or time my DTD trips so that I can go directly from my resort). You might not want to combine your BB/DTD experiences - it sure won't save you time!

I would suggest taking buses to either Old Key West or Saratoga Springs. Each will, after thier destination, go to DTD.
