We stayed at Waldorf Astoria and hired a car to take us there are pick us up. I think that it was $100. It was July 4th weekend, really hot and we didn't want to wait until the park closed for the shuttle, so it worked for us. Maybe call your hotel and ask how much that fare would be?

Take the shuttle.

Planning a trip to Universal Orlando and 10-year-old wants to go to Legoland. We will stay at a Universal resort, and were not planning on renting a car. Anyone know of the easiest way to get from Universal to Legoland? I think it's about 30 miles -- would a cab ride be really expensive? Would it be easier to just get a car? How is transportation around the Universal parks?
