HELP!!! Miami to Orlando transportation?

[disneynova]

I'm looking for a private round trip transportation service from Miami to Orlando?
I will stay some days in Miami Beach and I'm planning a quick trip to Magic Kingdom. I'm looking for something that could pick up directly at my hotel and drop me directly at Magic Kingdom.... Thank you so much for any help.

It's over 200 miles from Miami to Orlando - I would suspect your only option is going to be to rent a car.

Some time ago someone told me about this service, I also know it is expensive around $1,000 round trip, but I can not find any information on the web about this service .... rent a car is not a good choice for me, because I do not like to drive a long distance after a long and exhausted day at Magic Kingdom...

You could fly from Miami to Orlando and back for less than $1K.....

I believe there is a bus,I don't know if they would pick you up at your hotel though.

Yeah I just googled it really quick and they still have a few companies that go from Miami to Orlando,the one that I remember looking up before is not a door to door service,you have to get to the stop.It's like $30 one way to Orlando with a $20-$25 extension to Universal or Disney,so like $50 from Miami to Disney

I have only one day to go to MK and I want to spend as much time as possible there, I'm looking for a service to pick me up very early at 5AM and maybe get to Orlando around 9AM ... the same way back to Miami, a service to pick me up in the early morning at 3AM and maybe get to Miami around 7AM. The flights would make me lose some valuable hours...

Thank you very much for your help, but my problem is that I have only one day to go to MK and I want to spend as much time as possible there, buses are cheap but take a long time to arrive and I would have to go back very early about 6pm... Buses make me lose some valuable hours..

You need a rental car!!

I just wouldn't do it. I was north of Miami, in Delray Beach. We had a rental car and decided to drive north to WDW. We spent one night there (almost 2 days)...it was a grueling 3 hr drive, each way. There is no way I would do that for one day in a park!! It will be at least 4 hrs from Miami. Your only option is going to be a rental car. There are no private car services that will do this...unless you are willing to spend a boatload of money!

Wow you plan to spend 8 hours in a car to go to MK for a few hours.

You could fly on AA for $206 r/t per person for a flight that leaves and returns on the same day.

I googled "Miami Orlando private transportation", there are a couple private companies I found. You are looking at $400-$500 each way.

I live in Miami and when I was younger used to do one day trips like 7-8 times a year along with multi day trips.Eventually gas got expensive and I realized it's pretty nutso to get up at 4am drive 4 hours,walk around the park all day on little sleep to drive back getting to Miami around 2am.I agree it's pretty insane and not safe,but when you're young you do crazy things,today I do less trips a year but usually stay a minimum of 3 days.

Awesome, the "high cost" is not a problem for me. My problem is the few hours that I have. Thank you so much for your help, this is what I was looking for...

As I will only have one day available to make this trip, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m., 17 hours are great for me.
