Travel Options for Universal and Disney Trip?

[NMBCGirl]

Hello!

This is my first post, so please excuse me if this question is a repeat...

My DH and I are planning a trip for November. We are planning to fly to Orlando, spend a few days at a Universal hotel, then we'll be moving to the Wilderness Lodge for a week. Does anyone have a suggestion for the best ground transportation to accomodate this? We do not plan to rent a car for this time period, but are unsure if the shuttle / town car services will drop us off on one property and pick us up at another. We're also wondering if we should use Universal's shuttle to Disney property, or if we should arrange a shuttle / town car / cab for the transfer. It is likely that we will be arriving at the airport in the late evening, or night time if this makes any difference for the services offered.

This is my only my second time to the World, and I had no hand in planning the first, so this is all pretty new to me. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

I can not answer the question about the Universal Shuttle as I have never stayed at any of the Universal resorts.
But, I do know that a town car service will pick you up at one location and then for the return trip pick you up at another. We had Tiffany town car pick us up at the Hampton Inn and take us to WDW and then pick us up at the YC to go back to the airport. I had to call to make the reservations rather than making them online but it was easy to do.

Universal Studios does NOT have complimentary shuttle service from USO/IOA to WDW. The only shuttle service they provide is within the USO grounds and there are few shuttles to Sea World for USO Resort Guests.

Actually what you are needing is fairly simple. You would request a service (such as Tiffany) provide you with transport from MCO to USF Hotel, one way on your day of transfer to WDW hotel and then return service to MCO from WDW hotel. Piece of cake - they do it all the time!
