Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Thanks DennysDad - I was a little worried about availability of the ubers after disembarking but that is going to be my plan!!
  2. I have scoured this page and appreciate everyone's suggestions for local transportation companies but have found my group and itinerary is not fitting any of the existing suggestions. We are a party of 6 - two adults, two early 20s and two late teens. We will be arriving into MCO the evening before our Royal cruise and have a room booked at the Best Western CoCo Beach for the night. So leg one will be six people (who overpack) so probably 8 bags to CoCo Beach. I have no worries about hotel to port in morning. Upon departure we are all heading to Disney to spend a few days. So will need to go from Port to Disney and then eventually from Disney back to MCO. I emailed Go Port as so many people have positive reviews but they only do the to and from port or their pre-booked hotel. I also looked into Ubers - we would need two and have done this in other cities. I am not sure about the availability of uber rides to Disney upon disembarking the ship. I also looked into private transfer in a large van but many of the reviews of these companies are less than stellar. Has anyone used a private company for this kind of multiple stop on different day transfers?? Should I just go with Ubers?? Any advice or suggestions would be welcomed. I am perplexed and it is taking up way to much of my brain power daily to try and sort though the best options.
  3. Trying to plan for a day with my family at Paradise Beach and the posts I have read have been extremely helpful! I had three questions for the experienced paradise beach travelers 1. Seems like at other ports they demand or prefer (add on additional 19% fee for credit card) cash payment. Is it easy and OK to just use credit card without enormous additional fee at Paradise Beach to pay balance on account or should I plan to take cash? 2. Seems like there are lots of extras (massage, horse back riding, parasailing) once on property. If you want to partake in these actives is there a price list somewhere and are they through the resort or a separate company that you can use a credit card? Also are there any of these extras that anyone has found a MUST DO?? 3. How much do you usually take for tips?
  4. I tried searching this topic as but could only find threads 5+ or more years old and just want to be sure in a post COVID world that there are not other instructions or experiences people could share as I am a little anxious about the process. I am sure we are not the first to have this issue of a travel party of 6 - Two adults, Two "rookie adults" age 19, and two 16 year olds traveling this summer on the Allure. We have three rooms - two interior connecting and one balcony directly across the hall. We had to book with a parent in the 16 year old room but once on intend to have the "kids" all in the interior rooms and parents in the balcony room. My question is will they give me a hard time switching or adding the room key portion of the sea pass card so that we all will be able to access our correct sleeping room and is it still best to wait until on board and handle this all at Guest Services?? Thank you in advance for direction and any previous experiences as it will make me feel much better knowing in advance it will not be a huge deal.
  5. Have several excursions planned upcoming and curious how others handle tipping tour guides? Is there a "standard"? What if there are multiple stops (ie Dunn Falls, Blue Hole and Float Trip). How do you handle and what is customary?? Thank you in advance for any advice!
