We are taking megabus from San Francisco to union station for our cruise in December. What is the best way to get to San Pedro?

 

Thanks for your help.

 

Union station is about 60 miles from San Pedro.

I would look for a shuttle to LAX and then San Pedro.

Does the Megabus go to Long Beach or LAX?

It might be easier that way

We always rent a car from Enterprise at 445 S FIGUEROA ST. They will pick you up from Union Station. The Enterprise in San Pedro is next door to the Crowne Plaza and they will shuttle you to the pier. Our last car from that location cost $25 plus a $25 drop fee.

Not sure where you got 60 miles...Google Maps shows 26 miles & a 34 minute drive.

 

A shared PrimeTime shuttle van from downtown LA (where Union Station is located) to the LA Cruise Ship terminal costs $54 one-way for 2 passengers.

Not too sure why you'd go to LAX but there is a Flyaway bus that leaves from the 'back' of Union Station.

 

Either take a taxi or shuttle. Taxi stand is out front, to the south of the Megabus. Not too sure where the other shuttles pick up from these days. They've rearranged things since we took SuperShuttle Union Station to San Pedro 12 years ago.

You'll have to arrange pick up beforehand. I've never seen shuttles waiting.

 

taxifarefinder.com will give you an approximate taxi fare.

Super shuttle

PrimeTime

Execucar

Uber?

Amtrak runs a shuttle bus 4 times a day from LA Union Station to downtown San Pedro. Departure times from Union Station are:

 

2:50pm

4:30pm

7:00pm

10:10pm

 

Works only if you're staying overnight in San Pedro before boarding your ship the following day.

 

In order to ride the bus, you have to have a combination rail/bus ticket. In other words, book the trip from Glendale (GDL) to San Pedro with a "throw away" train ticket from GDL to LA, then use your LA to San Pedro ticket on the bus. Tickets can be bought on line at the Amtrak website.

 

Fare is $16 one way Glendale-San Pedro ($13.60 for seniors)
