Riverside buses About This Page:

I think a number of times we had Riverside-only busses that did not stop at FQ. I know returning from Magic Kingdom they had distinct bus stops, I don't remember if Epcot was the same way.

We will be staying in POR in November.. Would it be better for us to drive to the parks then take the bus? Does anyone know when the buses start picking people up?

There are a total of 4 stops at POR. Last year our room was close to the north stop which was nice because I am fairly sure it was the 1st stop.

The only problem we had was when leaving the parks, the buses were crowded, but that is true of nearly every resort bus at closing time. POR and POFQ share a bus. All in all we really did not have a very long wait, maybe 15 minutes at most.

You also can take the boat launch to DTD which was a very relaxing thing to do!

We've been staying at POR since it was called Dixie Landings and rarely had an issue with the bussing. Staying at a mod or value you have to go in expecting some kind of wait at certain times of the day. Your best bet is staying in Alligator Bayou (building 14 is our favorite) and walking to the main bus stop which is just outside the general store in the main buiding. If you're going to an early open park, get there about 10 minutes before you think you have to becuase it will be busy. If you're family is flexible, switch up your parks for the day when you get to the bus stop and see that one bus or another is too full. Patience and flexibility are key when going during peak times.

Sounds like the more recent stories are more positive than the past! Thanks for all these comments - we're also staying at POR - under 50 days, YEAH!!!!!!
