bus to AKL and back.... they are right across the street from each other. Please be advised you would want to get off at Kidani village and not Jambo house.
The way there should be fine, however if I may be so bold, it would highly discourage rushing through Sanaa and that section of AKL. The animals and animal views at Kidani are really cool.
11am would be OK for Uber or Lyft, but not for bus. You would want to allow at least 45 minutes. You may get there in 10 minutes if you're lucky, but you can't count on it. If you want to completely eliminate the possibility of arriving a few minutes late, allow an hour.
The Uber/Lyft pickup area at AK is on the opposite side of the parking lot from the bus area. For buses, you go to the right of the tram area after you exit, for Uber/Lyft you keep left.
It's not across the street, it's down the road a bit. It's about a 5-minute drive.
The problem is the wait for the bus is unpredictable. Disney's standard is under 20 minutes, but sometimes that stretches to 30 minutes or more. So like I said, 45 minutes is reasonable, but some people absolutely want to be at the podium 15 minutes before their ADR time.
There may not be any Uber/Lyft drivers hanging out in the AK parking lot at that hour, but there's likely to be one somewhere around the All-Stars or CSR who can get to you in 5-10 minutes.
