Transfer LAX to Anaheim

We haven't been to Anaheim since 2016 and previously we've always got a taxi from the airport. I'm unsure this time of the best way to get to our hotel - JW Marriott Anaheim as it'll be me and my son.

I've had a quote from midwilshuttle for $110 one way. Does this seem reasonable? Are there any other firms who you would recommend or is it better to get an uber?

Thanks for any help.

Yes thats about right. Im just back from LA / Anaheim and I used Midwilshuttle for 2 journeys, Downtown LA to Anaheim and Anaheim to LAX.

Both times I got a WhatsApp message to say the car was on the way.

I had the same driver for both journeys, a lovely woman I can't remember her name.

She turned up exactly on time both times.

I paid at the destinations with a card.

This was my second trip using Midwilshuttle, I previously used them in January 2022

I wouldnt recommend an Uber or Lyft to or from LAX. They cant collect you from the terminal but some way off plus with surge pricing the cost can easily double

I use (and have recommended successfully) affordabletowncarcompany/

I have used them for over 10 years several times a year and never let me down. Great service from knowledgable drivers and a small private company that rely on repeat customers - comfortable cars with free drinks, snacks and Wi-Fi. They can either meet you at usage carousel or directly outside the terminal - can can pay in advance or in the car (card or cash or paypal)

I recommend getting a quote that may beat the one you have already for a superior service

I got an uber in January cost about $55 directions to uber pick up were easy & driver easy to find. Just scroll down to find one of the cheaper options when choosing your ride.

Hi,

This was a private black car and not a shuttle bus right? Im nearly certain this is who we used in 2018 but the website looks very different so just want to be certain they do guaranteed private cars?

Yes , private black car. They do have a large van, but again, its just for one party if you have a group.

Ive used them on 2 trips now, January and June 2022 and had 5 journeys with them. No issues on any journey

Be aware of surge pricing when using Uber. We flew in from Hawaii arriving at about 09.30pm and the quote was $60 when we were taxiing in. When our luggage finally arrived 90 minutes later it had gone up to $115 IIRC.
