No Car... Uber

As the title says we are going next year and we are not having a car.

Anyone used Uber and can give me an idea of return price from Disney hotel to Walmart and Vineland Outlet

Cheers

There’s an online price estimator tool, you can put anywhere in

Get the lyft app but dont set up a log in until you're about to leave for america you get 25% off for your first ten trips the app is much better than uber, readily available.

We used Uber for our 10 night holiday back in Feb and worked out that we spent £300. Had we hired a car and there for had to pay for parking and fuel it would have worked out at approx £530.

Also we never waited longer than 5 mins for one.

Uber is much easier to use I found as you can send them a message

If we did not want to visit Busch Gardens (we do) and wanted flexibility about when we get back to Orlando (again, we do) it would be Uber all the way for us.

We've got a car booked for our trip in early November. We'll make good use of it in the day as we like to park-hop & parking is included on our SeaWorld / Aquatica / Busch tickets. Come the evening when it's time for food & drink, the I-Ride Trolley / Uber come into play.

As an indicator of fares - from Sheraton Vistana Village (near Premium Outlets on Vineland Road) to Universal was about $13.

Sorry for the thread hijack, but never used uber before. Do I need to use the app, is there a need to create an account, and if I create and use it in the UK do I then just use the same app when in California?

A lot of drivers will work for both with Lyft paying them a slightly better rate so based on that alone, I tend towards Lyft.

The 25% off has been readily available this year. I've had it on 3 separate trips and it's active again this month

Yes, you'll need an account and everything is based on the app.

Just download here and you can use it worldwide. When you're adding a payment method make sure it doesn't attract foreign exchange fees
