    Default Can you walk from Swan to Epcot?

    We are trying the Swan for the first time in November. Is it a reasonable walk from the Swan to Epcot, or should we just wait for the boat? How about to the Studios? Thanks!

    Yes to both.
    Walk to EPCOT in 10 min, you'll always beat the boat. 15 min to DHS.
    Both easy walks - and you'll almost always beat the boats.

    You can also take the boat for one or two stops, get off (probably at the Boardwalk), and walk the rest of the way. I've done that to cut down on the walking a bit.

    Yes, you can walk or take the boat. The boat
    is a nice relaxing ride.

    Walking will be faster, but ride the boats at least once. It's an elegant way to travel and is so beautiful.

    You have a Starbucks right there at the Swan/Dolphin. Good coffee. So jealous.

    As others have said, yes you can walk. It's such a convenience to be able to walk out the back entrance and back to your hotel at the end of the evening. No waiting for buses or monorails etc.

    Great to know. We are doing a last minute on-a-whim trip at the end of August and chose to stay at Swan or Dolphin due to the teacher discount. I knew you could walk but wasn't sure just how long that walk was. Awesome!

    Yes, it is quite a nice short walk. As a bonus you get to see some of the loving Epcot area resorts like the Beach Club.
    It's not 'work' if your doing something you enjoy. Let's just say that I 'work' 5 days out of every 7.

    And why do I work? So that I can take my family to WDW, silly goose!
