Difference between disney buses and driving
Since I pulled this thread out of last year I thought I'd report back on my recent experience. I've always been one to strictly use the bus, but thought I'd try driving to parks on this last trip.
Arrived about 4:00pm to HS- parked right up front, it worked out great.
The next day arrived at MK at 4:00pm and it was a nightmare, it had been 15 years since I drove to MK and this time might be my last time.
The next day drove to Epcot for F&G, arrived at 10:00 am worked great, parked close enough to the front to walk.
All things considered, we will stick to Disney transport in the future unless we are driving straight to or leaving straight home from a park.
Each day I'd consider a 10/10 for how crowded it was. On a side note flower and garden was amazing- wish we did 2 days there.
