Disney Resorts to Universal Studios?

[ilusionista]

If we havent got a car, how do we travel to Universal Studios while staying at a Disney Resort? Disney Transport of course can't take us there, and I heard taxis were quite expensive. And I'm afraid of getting lost or something while taking the bus XD So is there any solution for this? Thanks!

Towncar, taxi, or Mears shuttle.

We always use Mears. It costs I believe $19.00 now r/t per adult. Their number is: 407-423-5566. You can get your travel vouchers at the Mears desk in the Orlando airport (right next to the DME desk). They will take a credit card and there is no date on the vouchers. Just call the day before you want to go to Universal for a pick up time. If you don't want to buy them at the airport, you can still call them the day before you want to go to Universal and arrange a pick up time. Then when the driver picks you up, pay him in cash. The $19.00 does not include gratuity of course. Using them we have never had a problem getting to Universal prior to opening. They may make a couple of other stops though to pickup other people. About an hour before you're ready to leave Universal to go back to WDW give them a call for a pick up.

Disney Transport is not available. They don't want to take you to their competitors.

Once on the road (after pickup stops), the ride should not be longer than 20-30 minutes.

I know it's not avaiable, it was just a typo

I think I saw something on the universal site that offered one price for the ticket and transportation from any resort to them.....this would be simple one stop shopping if I'm remembering the info correctly - good luck and have fun

This should give you a ton of info. The ride is 'about' 30 mins, but that could change based on other stops that have to be made.

Also, I have used the DU offer...it works very nicely.

I agree - we used it last October and it worked out perfectly for us.
