What is the best way to get to DHS from Epcot? Also is there a way to get there without taking a bus? TIA :santa::santa::santa::santa:
 
Not sure if there is a bus from the Studios to Epcot. As you leave the Studios, if you go to the left you will see the boat dock. The boat runs from the Studios to Epcot with stops at the Swan/Dolphin, Yacht/Beach Club and the Boardwalk. You also have the option to walk (this is what we do all the time since we stay at the Epcot resorts). If there is no boat at the dock or just about to dock it may be quicker to walk. If you decide to walk, when you exit the park go toward the right and follow the water around and you will see a pathway (with a sign). Just follow the walkway past the Boardwalk and you can go two ways. You can turn just past the Boardwalk (between Jelly Roll and Atlantic Dance) and walk around the Boardwalk to Epcot International Gateway. You can also just continue past the Boardwalk and over the bridge past the Yacht/Beach Club to Epcot. Its really not a bad walk - the distance is basically just over a mile.
 
There is also a bus between the parks if you are at the front of Epcot when you want to head to the Studios or need to go to the front of Epcot when leaving the Studios. From Epcot pickup the boat to the Studios right outside the international gateway. You could also walk as the other poster said.
 
Exit at the International Gateway, which is located between Great Britain and France in the World Showcase. Take the boat. It is a nice, peaceful ride.

When leaving Epcot at the International Gateway you can take a boat directly to Hollywood Studios. Now after it leaves from there it will stop at the Boardwalk, Yacht Club/Beach Club, Swan/Dolphin in that order before it arrives at Hollywood Studios.
 
You can also leave Epcot via the International Gateway and walk toward the Boardwalk. Walk down the boardwalk toward the water and make a left on the pathway behind the Boardwalk Hotel.

You can follow that pathway along the water to HS. You basically follow the route of the boat.

We always walk because I have a double stroller and I can't stand taking the bus anywhere. It's probably a 15 minute walk.
 
Bus,boat or walk.Buses can be accessed from the front of each park.Boat will go from the front of DHS to the International Gateway of Epcot in the World Showcase,boats are not fast but are a nice way to go from park to park.You can also walk from the front of DHS to the International Gateway,it's not a short walk 20-30 minutes depending on your speed,you will walk along the lake outside DHS then go under the Buena Vista dr overpass,you will see the Boardwalk villas soon after,cut through the Luna park pool,go through the hallway with the bathrooms and arcade which leads to the Boardwalk plaza,doing this saves you from walking around the whole Boardwalk,get on the Boardwalk and go towards the ESPN Club then just continue and after the bridge turn right.Never walk if it's too hot as the walk will wear you out.
 
l aways walk, it is not that far and quicker than the boat. As one previous poster mentioned, it stops at all the resorts before the park.

About the only thing you forgot is taxi :D

Taxi will go front of Studios to front of EPCOT, just like the bus.
