Walt Disney World has so many exciting places to explore. As you head to your next thrill ride, character experience or delicious meal, you'll want to have a plan on traveling around this vast resort. Not to worry! Our Frog Family knows how to get around! Our froggy legs can only leap so far, so we use the complimentary EPCOT transportation to hop around property.
EPCOT transportation may just be the most versatile of all the parks. Options include boats, monorails and buses (oh my!). But wait, there's more! Disney World offers the Disney Skyliner, a sky-high gondola system that features a stop at EPCOT's International Gateway, making EPCOT the most accessible by Disney transportation. Here are the ins and outs of all of the free EPCOT transportation options.
The Expert Guide to EPCOT Transportation
You can get between almost any two points within Walt Disney using complimentary transportation, especially if you're staying on-site at a Disney Resort hotel. Even if you're staying off-site and have a Park Hopper ticket, you can utilize the free buses, monorails and more to make the leap from park to park. For example, you can take the Disney Skyliner from EPCOT to Hollywood Studios ... but we'll get into that below.
The perks don't stop at free transportation for Walt Disney World Resort hotel guests ... there are tons of other benefits too! Check out our favorite reasons to stay on-site at Disney World.
