Basic rule to remember about WDW bus transportation is that you can get to any resort or destination (including DTD) from any park and to any park/DTD/Transportation Center from any resort.
You cannot get from resort to resort direct There will be a DTD bus at the stop in DHS, just look for it on the ID board as you enter the park.
at the MK & AK I would take the First resort bus that arrived and then at the resort wait for a DTD bus (or boat).
at Epcot & DHS I would take Carib Beach, Sarasota, Port Orleans, or Pop. From PO & SSR you take the boat.
We took the bus to Caribbean Beach since it came before the POP bus did. We went there and waited for a DTD bus at the first stop we arrived at. Beginning to end it took about 40 mins to make the trip.
I would suggest going on the bus to Sartoga Springs and once you arrive there get off at the Congress Park bus section and use the walkway to Downtown Disney.
