POP to 1900 to Epcot

[Andrea73]

Okay, I need to know if this is a crazy and dumb idea or not.
Bear with me, it's my 1st time.

We plan to drive sometimes when parks are close or when it makes more sense than using the buses. On our "rest" day we have a 4:45 1900 Park ADR at the GF. Afterwards I was thinking we would hang out at Epcot WS for a bit.

Would it make sense to Drive to GF then Drive to EP

Or would it be okay to better and park at Epcot and then take the monorail to the GF and back. Would that be a super long ride on the monorail?

Or take the Bus to Epcot, then the monorail to GF and back. (I assume I would have to build a lot of time for "waiting" into this one)

Or take the bus to MK, go to TTC to get monorail to GF and then take the monorail back to Epcot.

Purely for the fun of the Monorail leave your car at the TTC. This though is good case where for spead you should drive to the GF and Epcot.

I would leave the car out of it. Bus to MK, monorail direct to GF, monorail to TTC, TTC to Epcot. Sounds like a lot but it's not bad.

The self-parking at GF is not super-convenient; it's across a street. By comparison self-parking at WL and Polynesian is really convenient. Or you could use the valet parking at GF. But the parking situation may sway you to use one of the bus/monorail options that folks are suggesting.

Self parking at GF is not convenient at all and can be a pain for non-GF guests. There is no "guard" on duty at the self parking lot. You must swipe your room key to open the security gate or buzz the intercom to ask let them know you are dining at 1900 and to lift the gate.

I think your best bet is to take the bus to MK, then transfer to the resort monorail or boat launch to GF.

If you prefer to drive, then park at Epcot and monorail from there to TTC and transfer to resort monorail.

HTH, Steve
