Quickest Way to F&W

[KeroKero]

If we're planning on park hopping to WS for F&W from either of the other parks (MK, AK or HS), do you think it's quicker to get to WS by bus directly to EP (monorail if coming from MK) or to take a bus to Yacht or Beach Club and walk to WS from there? Just curious to see what others think ....

I'm not aware of a direct bus from DHS or AK to Epcot. And the monorail will make you change monorails at the transportation center.

Here is what I'd do:

From MK or AK - take a bus to the beach club. The back door to Epcot is only a 5 minute walk from the Beach Club and it brings you in through the UK. From DHS, take the Boat directly from DHS to Epcot. This brings you right to the back door of Epcot as well. You could also walk. I'm guessing at a normal walking pace, it would take about 25 to 30 minutes to walk from DHS to Epcot.

There is a bus from HS and AK to EP. Both take you to the main entrance and in the past have been one of the farthest bus stops from the actual gates. I would recommend bus to BC or BW.

No matter what you do it will involve a lot of walking. The Resort buses may make multiple stops depending on which park you are coming from. The Bus Stops @ The EPCOT resorts are all a bit of a walk from the bus stop to the main resort building then you go through or around the main building to get to the pathways or Boat docks to IG. Quickest would probably be DHS to EPCOT IG via the boat transportation. If coming from MK use the Monorails. I'm not sure about from AK I think the bus goes to the regular bus dropoff at the front of EPCOT. In that case you might be better off taking a bus to one of the EPCOT Resorts.

Thanks for chiming in everyone! I was thinking the same about going to the EP resorts and walking to IG. It's not the amount of walking I'm concerned with ... it's time! I want to spend as much time enjoying myself as possible!
