My inlaws are driving to Disney to meet us. (We're flying) They met us at Disney last year and had a horrible time trying to find Pop Century. They are nervous about doing this again. I went to Map Quest to try to get simple directions for them - but I'm not sure what I'm seeing is the best way.

They will be coming down the turnpike from the north - Mapquest has them getting off onto 429, then taking Western Way to Buena Vista Dr, then Victory Way to Century Drive. It sound complicated to me. Is it well marked this way??

Is there a simpler way - even if it's not the most direct? Simple and well-marked??
 
Mapquest is correct - that is the simplest, quickest, easiest way to go. It's well-marked, but on some of Buena Vista Drive there is traffic, so of course they will need to pay attention and keep the map handy.

Check out the route here:

thanks so much for the info!

I just did MapQuest for my sister-in-law who is coming down I-95 from Jacksonville. It shows taking Oceola Pkway exit off I-4, then Right onto Victory, Right onto Century. Would it be simpler to send my inlaws turnpike to I-4, then Oceola exit?

That's about 20 miles out of the way, and it would only save them one turn. It will also put them onto I-4 for bout 10-12 miles, and take them past the confusing cacaphony of stuff from Universal to Disney, including 3 or 4 exits that are ALL marked "Disney World." This would confuse the heck out of them, and if they get off at the wrong exit, they could get lost for hours till they find themselves on a map, or stop to ask for directions.

Trust me - the 429 route I outlined above is the simplest, easiest, quickest way from Florida's Turnpike to Pop Century.
