We have always used WDW transportation when we go but am thinking wince out next trip will be during Springbreak next year we might just try using the car. Is it really that much faster to drive? We will be staying at Pop Century so probably will not be parked that far from the room. But when you count in the time to drive, park, walk to gate or to tram then ride tram to park, etc., is it really worth it? Also, is it further to walk from the parking lot than from the bus stop? I don't remember seeing the parking lots from the bus so don't know how far it would be.

You are going to get different opinions on this question. Mine follows along the thought of taking the WDW transportation. We have done it both ways.

Also, it depends on which park you are comparing. At the Magic Kingdom, I would take the WDW transportation every time.

I meant to put this in my original post. Which parks are best for which transportation? I would figure the bus for MK is a given but not sure about the rest.

Its generally bus to MK car everywhere else.

But if you are park hopping you need to think where your car is at the end of the night and if you can get to it or do you want to have to move your car for each hop.
