    Planning a cruise via Port Everglades. We will be leaving the port and traveling by rental car to Epcot/The Grand Floridan. Is there a shuttle avaliable between the Port and the rent car? (which will be booked through disney)

    Hey, howdy, hey, Samantha!

    Welcome to planDisney. And welcome to where magic meets the sea as you embark on an amazing journey aboard the Disney Cruise Line and beyond to the Walt Disney World Resort. Land and sea vacations are my family's favorite way to take in all the magic that Disney Parks have to offer.

    Our family has a Land and sea vacation booked that is similar to yours but in the opposite direction. We'll be starting at Disney's Contemporary Resort and ending on a cruise out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. So we are also sorting through similar plans for how to pick up and drop off our rental car as well as get to and from Port Everglades.

    I recommend taking a peek at the Port Everglades website, which is linked from the Port Addresses & Parking page on the Disney Cruise Line website. Specifically, look for the "Getting Here" section under the Cruise area of the website. There are a handful of rental car companies that are authorized to do business at Port Everglades, including some that may have shuttle service between their facilities and the cruise ship terminals. I recommend contacting your rental car company to inquire about their locations and available shuttle services to make sure.

    Alternatively, you will find that most major car rental companies have a presence at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL). If your rental is reserved through one of those locations, you will be able to purchase airport transfers from the cruise terminal to FLL. This is the option that my family is considering for our upcoming cruise from Fort Lauderdale.

    However you get to and from your Disney cruise, I hope you have a most magical time, Samantha. Please let us know if there are any other recommendations or pieces of information you'd like to hear about.

    You've got a friend in me, Samantha!
