5. Entering Epcot via the International Gateway
Entering the International Gateway almost feels like cheating, or like you're getting to use the entrance reserved for secret agents. Or something.
Ahem.
Anyway, rather than having to fight through the crowds at the front of the park, you'll enter at the very back of Epcot's World Showcase, between the France and United Kingdom pavilions. If the World Showcase is your favorite part of Epcot, this is an absolutely awesome way to jump right into the action.
One bonus of this entrance is that, after viewing the "IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth" nighttime spectacular, you get to escape via the "back route" and totally avoid having to navigate back to the front of Epcot with the rest of the herd.
