In reply to Jeanne.

Unfortunately no, there are not. The last thing Disney wants is for you to leave their property. However, you can always coordinate your own paid-for transportation either by grabbing a taxi or setting something up ahead of time through a company like Mears (http://www.mearstransportation.com).

Are there any buses or shuttles that will take you from Fort Wilderness to Universal Studios?

In reply to Kathy.

I wish I knew an exact answer for you, but I’m afraid I do not. I can tell you that I would be surprised if they made additional stops between the two locations, only because most Disney buses just go from point A to point B.

Keep in mind that the Wilderness Lodge buses may make multiple stops at Wilderness Lodge, since the property is so big. But once they leave Wilderness Lodge I would assume they go directly to their destination.

If anyone else has more information about this, please leave a comment!

Do the Magic Kingdom buses from Wilderness Lodge go directly between the two places or are they used for other stops also? I seem to be reading conflicting info involving Fort Wilderness and the TTC.

Is your name Cindy? Someone named Cindy sent me a question about this post via my contact form https://orlandoinformer.com/about/ but didn't leave a reply email address. Here's the question and the answer: CAN I DRIVE INTO FORT WILDERNESS TO SCOPE IT OUT BEFORE BRINGING THE R.V.? Like all Disney on-site resorts, Fort Wilderness has a security gate the monitors traffic into the resort area. So, you will definitely have to go through security. The good news is that security at Fort Wilderness usually does not mind campground visitors. I've gone there several times and said "we just want to take a look around," and they've waved us right in. Because Fort Wilderness is so large, and because you can't walk or take a monorail to any of the theme parks from it, they're not overly concerned with people parking there who are just trying to get out of paying for parking at the Ticket & Transportation Center, etc. So yeah, you should have no problem checking it out before hand. And, if for whatever reason they say that you can't drive on property, you can always take a bus from the Ticket & Transportation Center (the bus drivers never ask for a ticket or proof that you're staying on-site already), or you can take the boat over from Magic Kingdom as I describe in my "Day of free activity at the Magic Kingdom resort area" post https://orlandoinformer.com/about/. Or, you can make reservations for Hoop-Dee-Doo Revue. Then they gotta let you park on property :-)
