Family of 14 Posted April 3, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Can we get a limo service to pick us up from a Universal Studio's hotel and take us to the port and then the next week from the port to a Disney area hotel? With a grocery stop? Any suggestions? Of all the web sites I looked at, the fares were round trip from airport to port and back. Are you sailing on the Mariner 7/18/04?...Click here! or HERE!

Family of 14 Posted April 3, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Can they give us a round trip quote with a grocery stop on the way to the port, even thought it is not exactly round trip?

islesrule Posted April 3, 2004 #4 Share Posted April 3, 2004 is not a problem. From talking to them during first trip they were more suprised that we didnt want a grocery stop.

cmjaffe Posted April 3, 2004 #7 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Me, personally -- NO... but my very good friend, who's also a heavy-producer agent for Disney (she was Disney's sole US choice for a beta tester in addition w/Virgin in UK) uses them over the others and is contact with them directly weekly (they check in w/Nanci to make sure her client's are happy with their <Quicksilver's> service. I value Nanci's (Tink at Your Magical Journeys) recommendation .. she doesn't have anything to gain from her recommendation except knowing that her clients will get the best possible service.

dznymom Posted April 3, 2004 #8 Share Posted April 3, 2004 We have used Tiffany (usually a van) many times and have always been pleased. Usually we do a 3-way; airport to Disney Hotel, Disney to Port, Port to airport. They will give you a quote however you want to go and always stop for a 15 minute grocery stop on one leg. If you use them print out the $5 coupon form their web site. Every little bit helps Chris in NH Until our GLORY Cruise! Until we are BACK on the Radiance!

Family of 14 Posted April 4, 2004 Author #9 Share Posted April 4, 2004 Thank you all for your recommendations. We really want to surprise the kids with a real limo.

ducklite Posted April 5, 2004 #10 Share Posted April 5, 2004 I always use Golden Limo. I've used them for several "not quite round trips" just like you are looking for. The service is incredibly good, and because you deal directly with the owners directly, the prices are much more competitive. You can call them at 407.869.9007.

Tra4 Posted April 5, 2004 #11 Share Posted April 5, 2004 I called happy limo and they will pick us up from the airport, grocery stop (for champagne), take us to Cape canaveral (our pre-night hotel) and then the following week they will pick us up from the port, rental car stop, and take us to Sea world hilton. We will cab it to the airport later that week. They are very nice to work with. Tracey Until we cruise again. . . . . . Premier Oceanic-Bahamas, 2/89 Rhapsody-East. Carib. 12/97 Grand Princess-East.

celtic selke Posted April 5, 2004 #13 Share Posted April 5, 2004 A limo is OK, but this would really knock their socks off. http://www.darkforce.com/royce/cloud3.htm celtic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islesrule Posted April 6, 2004 #15 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Strech limo way to go . First time kids were really impressed. Streching out ,watching videos and drinking soda make a 50 minute ride feel like only 10 minutes. Only problem is now our daughter (9) expects one every time we travel. We were really impressed with happy, have used seve times over last few years and will agin for may 16 mariner trip Disney Magic May 2002 disney Magic May 2001 Carnival Ecstasy June 1996 Starship Majestic Nov 1992 Starship Majestic(BRB) Aug 89 Oceanic July 1986 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
