How to get around Walt Disney World when staying near Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Getting around the Walt Disney World Resort can be daunting, especially for first time guests. There are many transportation options and not all of them go to and from every resort. Disney transportation includes the monorail, ferry and bus.

For those looking to stay in the vicinity of Disney’s Hollywood Studios there are seven resort options and since it's so close to Epcot many of the resorts are the same. Disney’s Yacht Club and Disney’s Beach Club are sister resorts that share transportation and amenities, as well as Walt Disney World Swan and Walt Disney World Dolphin.
