    Hi! If we are planning to spend the day at typhoon lagoon & then go to epcot or hollywood studios for the evening, what time do we have to leave to get to a 5:30 dinner reservation? are there changerooms at waterpark or do we need to go back to our ho

    Hi there, Kate!

    From Disney's Typhoon Lagoon, you'll want to leave at least two hours of travel time. Because no bus goes from Typhoon Lagoon to any of the Parks, you'll have to do a couple of transfers. Your best bet might be to catch the Downtown Disney-bound motor coach, and from there, transfer to a Resort bus - any one will do - and finally, a motor coach to the Park of your choosing.

    That said, you might want to consider a taxi, The fare - which will be negligible - will be far more appealing, I think, than the time and logistics involved in using Disney's complimentary transportation system.

    Disney has a terrific relationship with Mears, and their yellow-colored fleet of cabs are readily available on property. You ca find a fare estimator online, too, which can be of some help:

    While there are changing rooms and showers available at Typhoon Lagoon, they offer the most basic of amenities. You might want to consider heading back to your Resort hotel to get refreshed and drop off your gear for the night.

    Have a wonderful time!

    See you later, celebrator,
