Hi, Eileen! Welcome to planDisney.
I love this question because I’ve been there: standing outside Disney's Hollywood Studios after a day of rides, thinking, "Surely I can just hop on a bus and be whisked away to
Disney Springs for a well-earned cookie at
Gideon's Bakehouse, right?"
Unfortunately, Disney buses do not run directly from the theme parks to Disney Springs. That means after you leave Disney's Hollywood Studios, you won’t find a bus stop that takes you straight to the shopping and dining fun. Instead, you’ll want to transfer through a Disney Resort hotel. But it's super simple: hop on a bus from Disney's Hollywood Studios to any Disney Resort hotel (I personally like
Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa because it’s so close to Disney Springs), and from there you can take a bus—or even walk if you pick Saratoga Springs—to Disney Springs.
You’ll be shopping, dining, and maybe juggling a few too many shopping bags in no time. Enjoy every minute of your adventure!
Mike
