I am in need of an individual or service that can take 3 adults one way drop off at Port Canaveral in early March for a cruise. If you know of anyone or a service that would go over there I would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks in advance.

Just for the day, or couple hours? Private car services may not be cost effective for two trips. A ride for two to Disney from TV 5 years ago was $125 each way.

Travel agencies support buses couple times a month.

Just to be dropped off for a cruise.

Some obvious uncreative solutions:

Take an UBER (cost about $300 each way) but very convenient.

Drive and park. I know you said a car service, but unless your cruise is super long so the cost would run high, driving and parking in the garage right next to the cruise terminal a super convenient.

Take a one-way rental car from Hertz in spanish springs and drop it at Hertz in port Canaveral. Some rigamarole involved at both ends, but cheap. Probably only cost $100 or so each way.

Drive and park at the pier. Easy peasy.

We are flying into Orlando, taking Groome to our Villages home and again need a individual or private service to pick us up at our home and drive us to the port as we are going on a cruise. We do not need return service, one way drop off only.

I would think that a private car service would be expensive when you figure the cost of Tolls, Gas, Wear & Tear and Time for someone to go there and back again. I would say about $300.

You are misunderstanding my request for some reason. I did not ask for a guess on what the cost would be, I asked for a service provider. Is my question not clear enough?

I use Blue Line Services - 352-391-2894 for going to and from MCO. I believe they do Port Canaveral also. Prompt, polite, insured.

If you'd like to ride in style, try a limousine service such as CEO Transportation. It might be a little pricey, but why not start your vacation out in style? Google "Limousine Service, The Villages FL" for other options at this level of service. As always, research any company you pan to hire.

I also recently used VIP to go to Tampa Airport, one way. They were wonderful. On time, nice car and driver. They are located in Oxford, Fl.

I recently did this trip from the villages to the cape Canaveral terminal. I took the southern oaks SUV service to Orlando and the bus to the terminal. It was awesome smooth.

I heard car rentals are another option where you rent a car and drop it off at the port.

Not sure your aversion of using a bus. It was quick and easy from the airport to the terminal.

But it’s only $100 to park for a week…less off-site. And it’s MUCH easier having your own car upon your return. We don’t make getting home another adventure! Just drive and park.

Call Yankee Trails. They have busses that will take you there and pick you up. We have used them twice to take us to the port in Ft Lauderdale.

Geez Vintage, your the one asking for help and when someone offers you not exactly your question, your an @$$? Maybe, if you knew how to use logic and a computer you could get the answer yourself with out being an @$$.

Here is OP first post was not a specific question, just general open ended. Didn’t correct post until later, with a specific needs, but we all know many don’t read all the posts.

He did ask a specific question and got a few direct responses to it with names and numbers of car service of providers that villagers had used.

He didn’t get more though because most villagers would not choose to hire a car and driver to take them to port Canaveral. They would instead drive and park, rent a one-way car, or take a bus.

Maybe the OP doesn’t drive. who knows. But regardless I think he got some relevant responses.

Use uber or Lyft. Those will be the easiest if you arent worried about the cost.
