Icon6 car services

Has anyone ever used Bestway Transportation to get from the airport to their hotel and back? I have been researching different company's and they seem to be the cheapest....we are traveling with 4 people so there will be around 5-6 bags to bring to the hotel and back and i read on a webpage that the towncars only can hold 2 large bags........what should we do?

Re: car services

i talked to the owner of quicksilver and he said that it can only hold 2 large suitcases and about 2 small ones......we travel kinda heavy so that just wont work for us, at bestway transportation(orlandoride.com) we can get an SUV for 115 RT including the grocery stop

Re: car services

In Aug we (3 of us) each had a large suitecase plus there were 2 smaller ones & we each had a carry-on. It was tight, but it all fit into the towncar.

Re: car services

Quicksilver also has a van that seats up to 10. The cost on that is $109.90 round trip, unless you are staying in a Magic Kingdom resort, which would be $5 more. We used the vans our last trip. They are nice, and are plenty room for all of you and the luggage.

Hello disneylover1019,

The reason we state 2 large + 2 smaller suitcases (plus carry-ons) is it is very hard to estimate what "big" and "small" is .
99% of the time, the luggage of a family of 4 will fit in our towncars. In the worst case scenario all drivers have a bungee cord to hold the trunk closed...

I have no information on Bestway. Never heard of them. Maybe someone here at the boards did. But of course I have to warn you, there are many companies selling their services for even cheaper than they are, but I wouldn't risk without some referrals.

For any further questions or concerns feel free to contact us at any time.

Regards,

Gregory Nicolas.

[font=Georgia]I am not making a plug for anyone but in our 3 trips to WDW we use Tiffany Towncar and were always met on time, they were very curtious and about the same or less as the other services. They also allow one 30 min. stop for groceries or similar type stores. We have always asked for the 10 pass. van which supplied plenty of room for the luggage of 9 people.

Re: car services

Hey disneylover1019:

Betcha didn't know that Gregory lurked here did ya?

I'm telling you both from personal experience and from the reports of many others, Quicksilver has the best service and is actually the best price (assuming you don't want a ride in an old Crown Vic (aka converted police car))

Go to google and look up Quicksilver. Or you can do a search right here. There hasn't been a single bad report about them.

Thanks MerlinMatt for the kind words.

Our link is also in my own signature and, of course, in Disney Central's home page as we sponsor the site.

Regards to all,

Gregory Nicolas.

Re: car services

We got a StarTours Towncar, for our trip, and it was great. They sent a Limo to pick us up for the airport, for the price of the towncar, and it was also great.
