How to get from Swan to Fort Wilderness

[maui2k5]

I am going to be in WDW Sept 22-Oct 1 and one morning during the trip my girlfriend would like to go Horseback Riding in Ft. Wilderness. Being that we would likely want to take an early ride and will not have a car, what is the best way to get the to the Stables that are for Horseback Riding (not the one by the Petting Zoo)? I know we could take a Taxi to FW or a bus to the MK then a boat to FW followed by a bus in FW (have to figure out which bis to get based on flag color). Not sure how long all that transportation would take though... Maybe the best idea is a Taxi there - Ride the Horses - thn a Bus to Pioneer Hall then ride the Speed Boats and then a boat to the MK from FW - monorail back to Epcot then walk to Swan for the afternoon. Any thoughts? Thanks!

I would take a cab to FW in the morning.

Afterwards, you could take the internal bus to the marina and hop the boat over to the MK. Then just grab the Swan/Dolphin bus back to your resort.

Taxi to FW sounds like the best plan. I would take the ferry over to MK, then take the bus either to the Swan or Boardwalk (whichever comes first). If you take the ferry to MK, and then hope on the monorail from there, you will have to switch monorails at TTC, then walk all the way through Epcot and back to the Boardwalk. It could be quite time consuming after a very long day.
