Hi All,
Just wanted to give everyone the price I received for Jimmy's Limo.

Pickup up at MCO and drop off at Royal Pacific

Pick up at Royal Pacific and drop off at Disney Cruise Terminal

Pick up at Disney Cruise Terminal and drop off at MCO

Total: $350

I think this is very reasonable for a stretch limo. I am going to book it. He is a sweetheart - very personable.

Hope this helps.

Mary

Does Jimmy have email? We're thinking of canning the rental cars (2 for 9 of us) idea and booking limo/towncar svc for airport-SOG, SOG-Universal, SOG-Seaworld, SOG-Pirate's/Arabian Night's dinners. The total price from what I've seen online is less to go the limo/large van route vs. two rentals (DH has to have his SUV!!#*&^). And no driving/getting lost. We're going in May, but I could email Jimmy for a price.
Thanks!

Sorry I took so long to get back to you all--I'm at WDW right now

We used Jimmy last night for a transfer back and forth between the BWV and the GF, as we had quite the evening planned.

I'm not really sure exactly what Jimmy's rates are for everything, but it's certainly no big secret. I've always used him for "oddbalL' stuff, multi legs and internal WDW things, which is why I can't simply give a "MCO to WDW" and back rate.

You can e-mail him at kfamily223@msn.com

Thanks for the info on Jimmy, I am having him take the 8 of us from the airport to Disney hotel, and also to Universal.I have used Mears in the past, which I have never liked

Aloha!

Anne thank-you so much for recommending Jimmy. I just phoned and booked the limo one way from the airport and my kids are going to be so excited. Could you please tell me what standard tipping would be. I am new to the limo scene. LOL.

I'm just a little confused. You called it Golden Limo earlier in posts. When I e-mailed Jim he signed it Jim Krapp, T&J Limousine. This is the same Jimmy isn't it? He was very prompt in answering my questions, but I wanted to be sure I was hiring the same person you have been raving about.

 

[ducklite]

Sorry for the confusion--Golden and T&J are one and the same.

Thanks for your quick answer. I'm going to make a reservtion as soon as I know my flight numbers.

Payless is reliable.

My two daughters and grandchildren, and my wife and I arrived in Orlando on three separate flights, two arriving about the same time and one arriving later in the day. We returned to the airport separately, two groups from the same hotel and one group from a different hotel from where we arrived.

We ordered one limo from airport one way to POR $90 for party of 6, one towncar round trip POR $75 for party of 4, one towncar one way from POR to aiprort $40 for party of 4, and one towncar one way $40 from Dolphin to airport for party of 2.

This was a complicated arrangement. The limo arrived at the airport promptly to pick up the party of 6, and while Southwest got 4 of us there on time, American Airlines did not get two of us there until 45 minutes late and the limo driver was very accomidating helping the Southwest passagengers to get their luggage and entertaining them while they waited for granny and grampy. No extra charge, but we made it up in the tip.

The first return towncar was 15 minutes early for return pickyp, the second towncar was the same driver later that day and was also 15 minutes early. The third towncar arrived just on time.

All drivers were couterous and friendly and drove carefully. All vehichle were first class. Booster seats were provided free of charge as requested.

I will use them for our next trip. I had the impression that this was a small family run business, and while the business formalities were not like the bigger companies (no one asked for credit card numbers before we arrived) we were more important to them as customers.

We got a quote for a trip that is similar to Mary's trip from Golden. The only difference is that we are going back to Disney after the cruise and then to the airport.

Her price was $350 - Our quote is $530 That's $180 extra! Sounds like Jimmy is taking into consideration the gas crisis.

We have a quote (and re confirmed by e-mail) for the same trip with Payless for $390.

Does anyone else have experience with Payless?

Also, when you have several trip legs and several different drivers, do you tip individually or at the beginning/end of the trip?

We got a quote this week from Jimmy Golden limo service from Orlando airport to wdw resort for $200

Is Jimmy on Vacation??? I emailed him a couple of times but haven't heard back and I hate to bother him on the phone but if phoning is better, I will. I just don't want to call while he is in the middle of a vacation. Anyone know?? We need a limo for transfers for our WDW/Cruise trip in August.


Thanks!!!!

Laura, I would call him. I always had better luck on the phone than the email. I don't think he checks his email often, but he is always prompt in answering the phone! Plus, he's very friendly & personable - you'll enjoy talking with him!

 

[sugarplumsmom]

Thanks Kimberly!!

He just sent me an email as I was reading your reply!!! I do LOVE Jimmy!! We have used him on several occasions and I can't imagine a Disney trip without him picking us up!!!!
