• Taking train to WDW?

    From Glenn Holliday@21:1/5 to All on Sat May 7 10:47:24 2022
    If our next WDW trip ever comes together, we'd like to
    take a larger family group and are considering a train
    trip rather than multiple cars. Amtrak to Orlando
    seems like the easy part. Transportation from the
    Orlando or Kissimmee train stations to WDW seems
    to not really exist. Calling a cab would mean
    multiple cabs for our group, which often does not
    coordinate well.

    Any experiences doing this? I know one of our
    options is to abandon the idea.

    Enjoying the season, and doing my bit for radp.

    Thanks.

    Sounds like a transportation company would be needed - someone like Mears. I have no experience with this however. Good luck!

    Would someone at Amtrak be able to answer your question? They must know
    what passengers do once they arrive at the Orlando station.
