Rough idea of Uber Prices

We are currently debating the merits of 2 family sized cars or a 12 seater minivan for our family group of 9.
Taking into consideration 2 x parking charges, 2 x tolls, us all having to leave the villa together, flexibility of two cars, etc.
I wondered if anyone can give me an idea of Uber prices (or where I can find them out) of typical journeys.
We are staying at Windsor Hills resort - I would like how much would a journey to Magic Kingdom/ Animal Kingdom/ Epcot/ Disney Springs would be (and in effect is it going to be more than the $25 to park a second car at the park?)
Can anyone advise please?

I'm afraid the only comparables from our trip in August were:

WL to Fantasia mini golf mid morning; Poly to WL and the Boardwalk to WL after the fireworks. All three trips were around $10 each.

uber/gb/en/price-estimate/

Suggests $23.14 for a UberXL (biggest one they do, seats up to 6) from Windsor Hills to MK.


Lyft looks ever so slightly cheaper: lyft/rider/fare-estimate

Excellent - thanks for that link, I didn’t know you could get price estimates for Uber, much appreciation

I would porbably look at getting the mini van and then just using uber/lyft for the times you don't all want to travel together. But i guess it depends what your plans are. We found uber/lyft good but lets say you want to goto a park, come out to goto buena vista for food then back to the park , or shopping , uber can add up.

Just back and wanted to give anyone interested in using uber /lyft how it worked out for us.
Only used lyft on this trip because i got $10 dollars free ride when i downloaded and used lyft then got a link for others to use so my son downloaded app and got $5 for him and another $5 for me when he used first time.
We then both added the promo 4$ off 10 rides, so in total had $100 off 20 rides.
We used lyft from MCO to Disney Springs hotel used lyft to and from Disney parks for 2 days. (Galaxy Edge Mainly).
We then moved to international drive for 8 more days again using lyft to the parks (universal ) and shopping outlets,golf,shooting.
And again back to airport last day.
In total we spent £202.34 . This was for 10 days in total and we both found the experience very good and so easy to use.
Before i went i looked at car hire ( i normally drive) this was £193 for 10 days plus the cost of parking at hotel and parks it would have come to £302.
Hope this helps Toddy
