"Дойти" means to reach the destination. Example: -- Я успел дойти до станции когда она позвонила мне. (I got to the station when she called me). -- Я хотела дойти до дома чтобы проверить не забыла ли я выключить утюг. (I wanted to get home to check if I forgot to turn off the iron). -- Чтобы дойти до вокзала, идтите прямо, потом сверните налево на улице Чайковского. (To get to the railway station, go straight and take left on Tchaikovsky Street). "Идти" means to walk, to be in the process of going (somewhere). Example: -- Вам надо идти прямо, потом свернуть налево по улице Чайковского. (You need to go straight, then turn left on Tchaikovsky Street). -- Чтобы идти прямо, продолжайте идти вперёд. (To go straight, continue walking forward). I hope this helps.
