Hi, We arrive in MCO on Friday 1st Dec at 16:15 and currently planning to take the 20:15 Greyhound bus from Orlando to Tampa booked (no suitable direct flights from UK to Tampa on that day). If we clear immigration quicker than anticipated, we are considering taking a Lyft or Uber to Tampa. I have downloaded both apps and added payment methods but where would the collection point be to pick one up ant MCO and does anyone have an idea about the rough cost to Tampa? Or is there a shuttle that runs regularly from the airport. We board Enchantement of the Seas in Tampa on the next morning, 2nd December and are planning to walk from the Barrymore Hotel along the Riverwalk to get to the port that morning. Jet lag and a very habitual 6am UK time wake up mean this is a better idea than it might sound… I can see a Publix Super Market on Bayshore, but is there anywhere directly on route to purchase a couple bottles of wine and some cans of coke to take on board? Thanks, Catherine

Happy to help with some suggestions for Dover as I live in that area but depends on what you are into. London is easily doable by train for the day or otherwise the castle in Dover is good. Nearby towns of Canterbury (again, train is easy here) or Sandwich are steeped in history. There is a stunning cliff top walk too to the South Foreland Light House and St Margaret-at-Cliff. Again all accessible by train, you have seaside towns of Broadstairs and Margate or in the other direction a big designer shopping outlet in Ashford. If I was going to pick one it would be the walk along the white cliffs. Breathtaking views and a lovely tea room at the lighthouse!
