transportation questions

[mep319]

WE usually use a limo from mco to WDW but this time we are staying 2 nites at PBH as well. So I still haven't figured out how to do this. Is there a shuttle from Universal to WDW for a fee? Or would it just be easier and cheaper to rent a car? If so any suggestions on a car rental place & where to get a good deal?
Thanks again!

I am not so sure about the limo, never used one personally. I would think you would have to pay for a round trip limo charge and then either a taxi ride or another one way limo ride from Universal to WDW. I am sure someone else here has done this before and will give you more detailed information.

That being said, I am a big fan of renting cars. Dollar, National/Alamo, Avis are all located right at MCO and it is pretty easy to get cars there and usually they have some good deals. Check out www.mousesavers.com for some car rental codes if you decide to go this route. Having a car allows you do to some exploring outside of WDW if you have a desire as well. We use our car to dine off property and shop the Disney Outlet stores at Belz and the Orlando Premium Outlets..

So would a total (including all those taxes etc.) from National of $189 ($144 before all that stuff) for a full size 8 days be considered a good deal?? I haven't rented a car in forever so I'm not sure. We would be returning the car on the 8th day at 10:00 am so I'm not sure how that comes into play. Thanks!

Sounds like a pretty good deal to me.. We usually rent mini-vans and pay around 199.00 a week plus taxes. I have seen full-sizes from around 120.00 a week and up. $144 for 8 days is not bad in my opinion.

Thanks for all your help...I couldn't find anything lower and the funny part is when I went back in to get the same rate for my in-laws it was $20 more with the same codes. Thanks again!
