I class myself as a seasoned disney traveller.done trips with and without a car.this trip we did without a car.on the nights we eat of site we got a taxi from fount of hotel,which was never a problem as it would be mears operated. ie checker/yelow cab or the other one cart rember the name they trade under(but there all mears)
When we were coming back from eating at 192 end struggled getting taxi when it arrived they had to get there daughter to translate for them, they didn't know the way to our hotel onsite and we had to direct them
Next time we stayed on site while BIL eat of site without us and arranged with the mears taxi to pick up later on,again this was 192 after it didn't turn up they got restaurant to get them a taxi when it did she told them about a taxi that picked a couple and the child up 5 min from disney and drove around for 4 hours parents were so concerned for there safety they just got out (noware near disney and paid $180.00)
Next night we eat at crossroads got restaurant to get us 2 taxis.4 turned up and they were arguing who should take us.we started to get in the first one that came.but they were still going on to wich i said"we will got to restaurant desk and ask them who we booked".I hadent shut my door but everyone else had.That started the DW and MIL screaming as the doors were locked i couldn't open them then.rest of party after hearing commotion tried to get out of there taxi and again doors were locked.Me was stood there i just panicked so just was shouting police and waving my hands about. eventually everyone was let out but the children were shaken up(as was DW,MIL and me).
We went back to restaurant to get a mears taxi but 2 of the drivers were still trying to get us to go with them,in the end they gave up.mears was there in a couple of min.
now don't get me wrong but they might have been ok but next time we will be only using mears operated or maingate taxi. apart from that had a cracking time)
