Is it a pain to get from AK to Whispering Canyon by car?

I think we'll be going from the Marriot Horizons to Animal Kingdom for the day and then dinner at Whispering Canyon - then back to the condo. But is it really out of the way and how much time will we need? We've never had our own car down there and am clueless to the layout... thanks.
 
No, not really. It will take you about 10 -15 minutes. I'm not sure where Marriott Horizons is so not sure how out of the way, or what you consoder out of the way. I find the roads fairly well marked as long as you have an understanding of general layout and where things are at. For instance, WCC is in the Wilderness Lodge. It will help to know that this is one of he Magic Kingdom Resorts and of course, located near the Magic Kingdom. Once leaving AK, then you'll follow signs towards MK, As you get nearer MK, you'll follow signs to the MK resorts and then WL. A good map is always a big help too!

Good luck and have fiun!
 
We always drive to WDW and our experience is that it is very easy to get from anywhere to anywhere, which is one of the reasons we always drive.

With a decent map of WDW it is an easy drive as the signs within WDW are excellent.
 
When you exit Animal Kingdom, stay on that road (Osceola Parkway). You will go by the big McDonald's on your right (and the exit for All Stars). Right after that, get into the left lane and follow the signs to Magic Kingdom. This will put you on World Drive. Follow that all the way to the Magic Kingdom parking lot entrance. You will NOT have to pay. Stay all the way to your right (the far right lane is for buses) and tell the guard you are dining at the Wilderness Lodge. Then follow the signs for the Lodge.

Maybe a full twenty minutes from getting into your car at Animal Kingdom to pulling up to the Wilderness Lodge.
