MCO to port of Tampa

[punkybett]

We're flying into Orlando for a cruise out of Tampa. Does anyone know the best way to get from Orlando to Tampa?

Looking for a shuttle as we won't have a vehicle.

You may need to consider using Uber, Lyft, or a taxi, or rent a car.

There is an Amtrak train you may want to check that runs between Orlando and Tampa.

Thank you, we hoped there was a shuttle, but I can't find one.

We are planning to do the same thing. I have been researching shuttles for a few months. I am considering Uber or Lyft at this point. I thought of just staying in Tampa but I don’t want to give up Disney.

Thank you so much. I will check into these options.

Lacking details I would comment that flying into Tampa would likely rival the cost of MCO and a shuttle.

Not when coming from Western Canada though.

Amtrak generally has 1 train per day.  I would not want to rely on the train arriving on time.  Greyhound has 3 to 5 buses per day depending on the day of the week.  Ourbus also has 1 or 2 buses per day.  

 

However, by the time you take an uber or taxi from the airport to the bus station, you may find that you are better off just taking the uber or taxi directly to Tampa.  The Uber price estimate I pulled for the full trip (one-way) is in the $100 (Uber X) to $150 (Uber XL) range.
