I want to make sure I understand how the Gondola works. Am I able to take the Gondola from HS to Epcot, (without needing admission to Epcot) and then take the monorail or bus to MK?

I am going from a day at HS to After Hours at Magic Kingdom and would like to experience the Gondola. I do not have hoppers....just a day ticket to HS and an After Hours ticket to MK that evening.

Thanks in advance!
