Trip to Fort Wilderness end of June

Wow. My family still talks about our first trip to the Fort back in January, 2006. Wonderful, lifetime memories.

Fast Passes are a great idea to do now. If you can swing it, call right now and make reservations for Hoop-De-Doo Revue one night. Its expensive but in our opinion, well worth it (especially for a first timer).

Save every nickel and dime you can between now and then for the trip. Its Disneyworld. It's expensive but since most of us do it only every-so-often, go ahead and do it right and not try to skimp out cheap. You won't regret it.

By the way, we like to reserve an overnight somewhere in south Ga. so we can head down the day before our arrival. Then the day we're supposed to be there, we can arrive by noon or so fresh and ready to go. If you can add a day to your campground stay, you could spend that first afternoon at the Fort and Downtown Disney.

2. Is there transportation to and from Disney World without having to drive?
Yes Bus to sites and boat to Epcot

Not sure about boat to Epcot but definitely to Magic Kingdom.

Also, no direct bus from Magic Kingdom to FW but you can take a bus to Wilderness Lodge(or any other ?) and then take a bus to FW.

FW is one of the finest campgrounds we have ever stayed at. The restrooms are top notch and there are plenty of fun things to do within FW. The free buses will take you anywhere within FW as it is huge. The north end of the park will get you a free boat shuttle to the Disneyland part of the resort. The southern end of the park are free buses to take you to the other parks. You can park your rig and not have to move it until you leave. Disney did this resort in a first class fashion.
