Port Canaveral - Disney Market Place

[PregnantCruiser]

I'll be on the Jewel at the end of March which stops in Port Canaveral. We'd like to go to Disney Market Place/Downtown Disney for the day. What's the best way to do this? Rent a car? Is there a shuttle? It's about an hour's drive each way, right?

 

Thanks for any help or suggestions. I tried looking on the Florida Ports Board and didn't find much.

 

Thanks!

The best way, IMO, is to rent a car. Estimated driving time is 1¼-1½ hours via SR 528. Have quarters handy for tolls and stay to the right when you see a toll both. There may be shuttles to Disney, but I'm not aware of any that go to Downtown Disney.

Thnaks Vic. How do rental cars work at this port? Will I have to take a cab to the rental agency? Can you tell me what the closest agency is? Thanks for your help!

Avis, Hertz, Budget, Thrifty/Dollar and Entreprise are all here and will shuttle you to/from the ship. All are close.
