Question Rental Care, Quicksilver or Others

We are going to SW during our September trip and we are staying at POP Century Resort. What is the most cost & time efficient way to get there?

Do the rental care places on site at disney bring the car to your resort or do you have to go and pick it up? Is there a website for this service provided by Disney?

I would like to go to City Walk at US after Sea World for dinner as I have a gift card and I wasn't sure if Quicksilver or taxi's would take us from SW to City Walk back to our resort. This may seem like a stupid question but I live in a 2 traffic light town and know nothing about taxis.

Do taxi's charge per person or is it by mileage or by time? The only time I have ever been in a taxi was when I was on a cruise and the fee was a set price per person.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you go to the Dolphin, they have cars there (Alamo/National). The Car Care Center has a shuttle, and they will pick you up at your resort so you can get the car, and then return you to your resort or park when you drop it off. There are also some hotels at DTD that have rental car offices, although I don't know of any that bring the car to you. I'd check out Mousesavers in the rental car section. She's got a lot of info there!!

I can recommend two taxi companies that charge a bit less and the service has moderate to wonderful service. This is if you plan to use taxi's to get around.

1. Maingate Taxi 407-390-0000
2. County Taxi 407-397-9497

Hope that helps

The LYNX Public Bus service is great getting you from Dis to SW. But, you have to catch the 50 - Downtown Orlando bus from TTC in order to get to SWO.

I'd either use a cab, Town Cars I think are a bit more expensive, or look into renting a car for the day. Mind you, with a car rental you will have to pay parking at SW. Universal parking after 6? used to be free, but they may have changed it, not sure.
But think a car rental may be your best bet, if you can find some discount codes at mousesavers.com rather than a cab to SW, another to Universal & then one back to WDW.

Obviously DME is the most cost effective way to get to POP, but In your case I think a Rental Car would be most efficient.

There is a forum you can go to that has lots of Discount codes ; I don't remember it off the top of my head but its posted in alot of places...
