Need some help how to get from place to place

[Yzerbear19]

Need some help figuring out what would be the best way to get from place to place. My sister and I are staying at Pop Century and will be renting a car from the airport. Here is what we have planned right now:

Day 1: Arrive / Titanic Experience / Rest / Downtown Disney

Day 2: Magic Kingdom (morning extra magic hours)

Day 3: Animal Kingdom / Epcot (evening extra magic hours)

Day 4: MGM (morning extra magic hours) / Epcot

Day 5: Magic Kingdom (evening extra magic hours). We have 7:50 am reservation at Chef Mickey’s. We will be driving to the park this day since we want to stay for the fireworks.

Day 6: Universal Studios. I think I remember how to get to Universal Studios from WDW since we stayed over on International drive last time. So this day shouldn't be a problem for us.

Day 7: Depart

I'm just confused by what would be the best way to get to each park/place.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Need some help figuring out what would be the best way to get from place to place. My sister and I are staying at Pop Century and will be renting a car from the airport. Here is what we have planned right now:

Drive from POP to DD. Buses to and from DD seem to take FOREVER, LOL.

Day 2: Magic Kingdom (morning extra magic hours)

Take the bus - driving can be problematic for EMH. You have to park, take the tram, then take either the ferry or monorail to get to the entrance turnstiles. Better to just take the bus to the MK. JMHO. YMMV.

Day 3: Animal Kingdom / Epcot (evening extra magic hours)

Drive. Buses to the AK do not seem to run very often during mid-Day.

Day 4: MGM (morning extra magic hours) / Epcot

Take the bus to MGM. Walk or take the boat to EPCOT. Take the bus back to Pop. (The bus is an OK option for morning EMH and the boat ride between MGM & EPCOT is fun to do at least once. Moving the car between parks mid day will probably take as much time as walking or boating).

Day 5: Magic Kingdom (evening extra magic hours). We have 7:50 am reservation at Chef Mickey’s. We will be driving to the park this day since we want to stay for the fireworks.

I'd still take the bus. Even if you drive, you'll still be in the crowd of people to board the monorail or ferry to the TTC. (IMHO, stuck in a big crowd is worse than possibly having to wiat for the bus to POP, whcih come frequently at park close, anyway). From the TTC, you'll likely have to wait to board the parking lot tram. So my advice is to bus to the MK in the morning and walk over to the CR for Chef Mickeys. If you have kids along, you might take the resort monorail from the MK to the CR - it's fun to arrive at the CR via monorail.

Day 6: Universal Studios. I think I remember how to get to Universal Studios from WDW since we stayed over on International drive last time. So this day shouldn't be a problem for us.

No better option than driving - I don't think finding Universal will be a problem if you are a good "sign reader", LOL.

Day 7: Depart

Have a good time!
