Ground options to get around town:

I-Ride Trolleys are the fun way to get around International Drive.  

Symbolizing its role as a true destination, the International Drive 

Resort Area offers its guests a certain amenity with all the bells and 

whistles: the exclusive, convenient, and economical I-RIDE Trolley 

Service. Single fare is just .75. Kids under age 12 ride free! Just 

hop on board an I-RIDE Trolley , hours 8 a.m. - 10:30 p.m. daily.

 

Those who rent a car while in Orlando will find excellent signage that 

makes it easy to navigate throughout the area as well as friendly 

rental agents who will provide detailed maps that will guide you to 

your destination.

 

Major highway networks provide easy access for visitors to reach their 

destination and for traveling in and around the Greater Orlando area. 

Major highways include Interstate 4, the Florida Turnpike, Highway 528 (Bee
Line Expressway), Highway 408 (East-WestExpressway) and Highway 417 (Central
Florida Greeneway).

 

Besides taxi and limousine service to anywhere in the Greater Orlando 

area, the city's Lynx bus system provides economical public

transportation around Orlando. Bus stops are marked with a 'paw'

print of a Lynx cat. The downtown Orlando Lymmo bus system provides 

free transit reaching from the T.D. Waterhouse Centre to City Hall.

The 11 Lymmo stations are designated by kiosks and the eight Lymmo 

stops are indicated by a small sign. Returning to the horse-and- buggy 

days, carriage rides are also available through local vendors in 

downtown Orlando.
