What time should we leave Universal Studios to make it to Ft. Wilderness to see Hoop Dee Doo at 5 PM?

Well, they did say if you have transportaion questions this is where to ask them :lmao:

Can a transportation company or cab go through the gates at Ft. Wilderness to drop us off at the Settlement Depot?

Thank You, Thank You!
 
If you are taking the Mears shuttle where you might have multiple stops, I would leave Universal NLT than 3pm and have them drop you at Fort Wilderness.

If you are taking a private car or cab then, you could leave about 3:30pm.

In any case, the only place you could be dropped is at the Fort Wilderness Outpost where you would then need to take a bus to Settlement Depot.

Another alternative is to have them drop you at the Contemporary, then you could take the small launch from the Contemporary directly to the Marina which is a few short steps from Pioneer Hall.
 
3:30pm could be cutting it close, unless you mean being IN YOUR CAR and pulling out of the Universal parking deck at 3:30pm...
 
I'd leave super early. If you get to FTW early, there's lots to do...walk around the campground, take the boat to the Wilderness Lodge and wander around there. Take the boat (free!!!) for a ride around Bay Lake. This is the boat which goes to the Lodge, MK, and other places, visit the petting zoo, etc. You can spend many hours enjoying the Wilderness.

def:thumbsup2i'd probably leave @ 3 pm to avoid traffic on I-4. It could easily take OP 30 minutes to even get to the parking garage/public transport area.
 
I'm thinking of commuter traffic, too. Give yourself plenty of time - 2 hours would not be out of the question, IMHO.
 
I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought 3:30 was cutting it kind of close. Personally, I'd be leaving the Universal parking garage no later than 3:00pm for that.
