Hi Lin!
I’m so excited you’re about to begin your magical Walt Disney World Resort vacation! I’m happy to help you navigate getting to the theme parks you’d like to visit.
If your hotel’s shuttle only drops off at
Magic Kingdom Park, no need to worry – it’s just a hop, skip, and a monorail or bus ride to get you to your destination.
Getting from Magic Kingdom to EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios is quite straightforward, using Disney’s complimentary transportation. Here’s how you can do it:
From Magic Kingdom Park to EPCOT: The Transportation and Ticket Center (known as the TTC) is the shuttle drop-off location for non-Disney Resort hotel guests in the Orlando area. The TTC is where general parking is located for Magic Kingdom Park. At the TTC, take the EPCOT
Monorail line which will take you directly to
EPCOT.
From Magic Kingdom Park to Disney’s Hollywood Studios: There are
buses available from Magic Kingdom to
Disney’s Hollywood Studios. You can find the bus terminals just outside the entrance of Magic Kingdom. Once you arrive at the TTC, take the Express Monorail to Magic Kingdom. Once you exit the monorail, walk all the way across, in front of the park entrance (you will not need to enter the turnstiles), until you reach the Magic Kingdom bus stop on the other side. If you need help locating the bus to Hollywood Studios, simply ask a helpful Cast Member to guide you.
You do
not need to enter Magic Kingdom to access the transportation. The buses and monorail stations are located outside the park entrance, so you won’t need a park ticket to use them.
Keep in mind that travel times can vary. Allow yourself plenty of time to travel between parks, especially if you have reservations or specific plans. If you have a Theme Park Ticket with the
Park Hopper option, you can enjoy the flexibility of moving between different parks on the same day!
Always check the latest transportation schedules on the
My Disney Experience app or consult Cast Members for any changes or updates. For help navigating from one park to another, you can also use the "Get Directions" feature in the mobile app or ask a Cast Member for assistance. The quickest route may include a mix of transportation options like buses, monorails, boats, or even walking!
I hope this information is helpful! Have a wonderful time at The Most Magical Place on Earth!
