St. Pete's Beach to Busch Gardens?

Question

is there an easy way to get from Tradewinds Resort, or anywhere on St. Pete's, to Busch Gardens in Tampa? taxi? bus? subway? i really did not want to rent a car.

Answer 1

Most hotels and resorts have buses that go to all the local attractions ask in the lobby. Taxi is your next best bet.

Answer 2

I haven't checked, but is there a page for http://www.taxifarefinder.com?  If not, you could use the page for Miami and just type in the addresses.  I think it's enough for making estimates.

Answer 3

Your best bet without renting a car would be to take a taxi. The bus system here in Tampa and St. Pete is confusing and can be overwhelming, and we don't have a subway, but we do have a trolley service that only services Channelside and Ybor City.

Ask front desk at Tradewinds to where the taxis at the resort are in the morning you leave for Busch, or the night before...taxi's are somewhat expensive and run $30-45 bucks each way, but it really depends. Just make sure you bring extra money for the taxi service. Taxi service can also drop you guys back at the resort, right next to the tram service at the Busch Gardens main gate is the taxi stand. Hope that helped! :)

Answer 4

Hi. most of the local hotels have shuttles going to and from the major attractions and airport. Try giving them a call and see if they do, If not it might be easier and cheaper to rent a car. Taxi's going across the bay tend to get pretty pricey.

good luck
