Transport between parks.

[eyckmans]

Hi, we will be park hopping sometimes during our December visit and would like to drop our car off in one park and then collect it last thing at night but I can't find a list of all the different transports available between the parks. I remember getting a bus between 2 of the parks last time we went to WDW but I believe that there is also a boat that goes between 2 of the parks and possibly a train of some sort. Can anybody tell me where I can get a list of all the transports available or at least tell me any transport that you know of.
Thank you
Valerie

MK to Epcot-monorail (via the Transportation and ticket center)
MK to DHS-bus
MK to AK-bus

Epcot to DHS-boat
Epcot to AK-bus
Epcot to MK-monorail

DHS to AK-bus
DHS to MK-bus
DHS-Epcot-boat

AK to all parks bus

You cannot get to Downtown Disney from any of the 4 main parks

There is "direct" transportation between all the WDW theme-parks.

Most routes are via Disney Buses.

Here are the "park-to-park" Disney Transportation direct connections:

>Note: The MK buses connections arrive and depart only at TTC.<

MK/TTC> Epcot = Monorail
MK/TTC> DHS = Bus
MK/TTC> AK= Bus

AK> DHS= Direct Bus
AK> Epcot= Direct Bus
AK> TTC/MK= Bus

DHS> TTC/MK= Bus
DHS> AK= Direct Bus
DHS> Epcot= Direct Bus (Epcot Front Gate) or Boat (Epcot Intl. Gateway)
......Boats ("Friendships") make 3 interim stops at the Epcot area resorts.)

Epcot > TTC/MK= Monorail
Epcot > AK= Direct Bus
Epcot> DHS= Direct Bus (Epcot Front Gate) or Boat (Epcot Intl. Gateway)
......Boats ("Friendships") make 3 interim stops at the Epcot area resorts.)

The buses have their destinations shown on them on illuminated signs.
The bus stops are also marked with signage.

As a rule-of-thumb, allow 40-60 minutes to get from the gates of one park to the gates of another park.

Here's a (rather "un-beautiful") satellite view of the actual layout of the locations of the parks, relative to each other.

Wow that was quick. Thank you so much. That is very useful information.

One thing to very seriously consider is parking you car at the last park you will be at that day and then take Disney Transportation to your first park.

This way when you come out at the end you car will be there. Otherwise you will then have to take transportation to where you have parked and probably a tram to get to your car.

Thanks, That's a great idea and I will definitely plan for that.
