The Epcot Skyliner Station is located right in between the Beach Club Resort and the Epcot World Showcase entrance. This gives guests a quick and easy ride to Hollywood Studios if they choose to take the Skyliner but can also bring them to other resorts like the Riviera, Caribbean Beach, Art of Animation and Pop Century, making resort hopping a breeze.
Guests can also board a water taxi known as the "Friendship Boats" to bring them to Hollywood Studios or any of the other resorts on Crescent Lake. However, one of our travel experts tested out the different transportation options and for someone who walks at an average pace walking is your quickest method to Hollywood Studios.
There are also Disney buses that service the resort that take guests to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom and Disney Springs, so keep an eye on your My Disney Experience app for the next scheduled bus departure time.
