Town Car and Trans to Boma questions

[SpiritedHaunts]

We plan to be traveling in September of this year and for special are going to eat a late-ish breakfast at Boma on a MNSSHP morning.

So, my question is what would be the recommended (free) means of transportation to Boma from the Dolphin and maybe back or straight to the MK for the party?


Also, since this might be our last trip, as we currently travel, I am debating renting a town car for our to and from airport travel. We usually go with Mears and about two hours later arrive at the hotel. Mears would cost $68 and I saw on Tiffany Town Car site a quote of $109. So, for $41 more we could ride in style and get to the hotel earlier.

Are there any hidden costs to using a town car? Any idea on the average time from the airport to the Dolphin?

Thanks.

Bus from Dolphin to Animal Kingdom, switch to AKL bus- or if you want to go back - do it in reverse - to Party direct Just take AKL bus to MK.

Why not just take Magical Express? It's FREE.

If you want to take a town car, also check out Happy Limo at happylimo.com. It's about 30 minutes from the MCO to WDW. The only additional cost is gratuity for the driver.

OP is staying at the Dolphin, not a Disney-owned and operated resort, so DME is not an option.

OP: The only thing that won't be included in the price is a driver tip, which should be another 10% or more depending on your beliefs about gratuities.

To go to Boma from the Dolphin you can, take the bus to the AK and then the bus to AKL or yopu can walk or take the boat over to DHS and take the bus to AKL.

To get back to the Dolphin - reverse the above!
To get to the MK from Boma take a bus from the AKL to the MK.

Towncar - there are many good ones and I have never heard of any hidden fees except the tip.

We use Tiffany Town car and IIRC our last trip was $110 round trip to the Dolpin with a complimentary grocery stop on the way from the airport to the resort if you would like one.

Tiffany is excellent, prompt, clean and courteous. We use them every time we go. The only additional fee we have ever encountered is for the tip, and I usually tip about $20 each way.
