A full day to take in everything would be best.

Walking Distances at EPCOTEPCOT is more than two times the size of Magic Kingdom, coming in at 300 acres total. Just the walk around World Showcase alone is 1.2 miles. If you walk completely around Future World and World Showcase, you'll be at 3 miles easily.
EPCOT has TRIPLE the attractions of Hollywood Studios that are family-friendly for everyone in the family! And that doesn't even include all of the shows! We've already discussed some of them above in the “adults” section, like American Adventure, Awesome Planet, and Canada Far and Wide.
You can absolutely purchase a single-day park ticket to visit both Disney's Hollywood Studios and EPCOT. You'll need to add the Park Hopper Option to your ticket in order to visit both parks in one day.
In general, you can expect the Skyliner to begin running about an hour before EPCOT and Disney's Hollywood Studios open, and to stop running about an hour after those parks close, but there is significant variability in this.
The ride from this station to Disney's Hollywood Studios is about five minutes. To be safe, I would recommend budgeting at least 30 minutes to get to your destination. If the Skyliner lines are long, you can also walk to Hollywood Studios- it may not be as fun, but the trip would only take you 15-20 minutes.
Magic Kingdom holds a special place in our hearts as the best Disney World park. Its nostalgic rides, captivating parades, and spectacular shows make it truly unbeatable.
If you're into rides more than general theme park merriment and atmosphere, we suggest skipping Epcot, as it doesn't offer as many thrills. However, families, foodies and world's fair enthusiasts will likely enjoy their time at this concept park.
Epcot is one of the quieter Walt Disney World theme parks because it is generally quite good at managing large crowds. Still, with around 35,000 people visiting each day, you'll want your visit to coincide with a below-average number of attendees.
Of course, with so much to ride, eat, see, and do, you could spend at least one full day at Epcot, and some guests staying for a week opt to visit more than once, coming back another afternoon to take advantage of the restaurants and entertainment.
While you might not be able to get absolutely everything in the park done in a day (with the near-constant stream of Epcot festivals, there's often just too much to see, do, and eat), you will certainly be able to accomplish most or all of the rides, plus make a dent in whatever else strikes your fancy around World ...
Its about a 15 minute walk from the Epcot parking lot to bag check and then the gates. For AK and HS,it is more like 10 minutes. For the MK,we get there early and park up front;then take the ferry from the parking lot to the gate. That takes about 20-30 minutes and is really thrilling.
At Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom, the parking lots are right there. If you arrive very first thing in the morning and are able to secure a spot near the entrance gates, you'll only have a 2-3 minute walk to get to the park.
Parking at Disney World parks costs $25 for standard parking and $45 or $50 for preferred parking. Guests of Disney hotels enjoy free theme park parking as a perk of their stay. Most Disney World annual passholders also get free parking.
As a general rule of thumb the best day of the week to visit EPCOT typically tends to be Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday. We would recommend visiting on a Wednesday during the festivals mentioned above.
If you are trying to take advantage of everything Hollywood Studios has to offer we recommend arriving 45 minutes – an hour before normal scheduled park opening.
At Hollywood Studios, things are a little bit backward. The worst day of the week to visit has historically been Monday! Perhaps it's because people expect the weekends to be the busiest, so they go with a weekday instead. Nonetheless, Monday wait times might be a bit higher than you'd want.
