Getting outside of Disney World?
Disney World is fantastic but have you thought about all of the other fun activities await in Orlando? Harry Potter World at Universal Orlando comes to mind or SeaWorld and even Busch Gardens in Tampa. All of these locations have one thing in common; they are not Disney owned. Therefore, Disney does not provide transportation to get you there. So, if you do not have your own vehicle, you will need to think of some other transportation. Here are a couple of options that might work well for you to get around to other places in Orlando.

How do I get to Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure from Disney's Coronado Resort?
Disney World is great but have you heard about the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at the Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure Theme Parks? What a wonderful experience to be immersed in the land of Hogwarts and Hogsmeade. Honestly, it makes you feel like you are there. So, how do you get to this magical land? The Hogwarts Express would be an amazing way to travel but you will have to wait until you get inside to encounter riding the train to Hogwarts School. If you have your own car, it takes about 20 minutes to drive up Interstate-4 but if you don't have your own mode of transportation you will want to rely on a paid alternative. Mears Taxi or Uber are a couple of selections to consider.
How far away is SeaWorld and Aquatica from Disney's Coronado Springs Resort?
It's not that far away at all. If you get on I-4 and head east you will see it on your right about 11 miles away.
