Getting to Epcot

[julie d' tooth fairy]

Hi All,
I'm a first time poster
My twin sister, Husband and I are returning to Disney (last visited 2001) in September, during our last visit my husband was the designated driver and didn't drink alcohol as we went around the world showcase at the Epcot Center.
This year our hotel (on International Drive) lays on free transport to the Magic Kingdom, but are we able to get to the Epcot Center from the MK using the Disney transport system? As it would be great if my husband could enjoy a cold glass of Beer (or Two).

You should be able to get from the Magic Kingdom to EPCOT by taking monorail or boat transportation to the Transportation and Ticket Center (TTC) and then riding the monorail to the main enterance of EPCOT.

Welcome to the DIS.

In fact, your hotel shuttle will probably be dropping you at the TTC. From there, you can take the Epcot monorail, the MK monorail or the MK ferry.

Happy planning!

Excellent point BCV23. I did not even think of this, but you are correct. Only Disney buses drop passengers off at the Magic Kingdom entrance. All other buses drop off at the TTC. From there just hop on the monorail to Epcot. Let me add a word of caution though.....from what I have read the off-site hotels offer very limited bus service so you had better check out the times and pick up places. If you miss your last bus your only alternative would be a taxi.
