Default Transportation to Cape Canaveral

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.

Not a bus please, I guess I should have spelled it out a little better LOL.

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.

Here is a link to VIP Transportation out of Oxford. I refer many of my clients to them. They have all sizes of vehicles which can accommodate your small group.
