Even without a rental car, you can easily get from our condo to the major attractions. The LYNX buses have a bus stop right outside Vista Cay main entrance, that’s about 100 yards from our condo. The I-Ride Trolley, that goes up and down International Drive all day, have a stop just under 1 mile from Vista Cay. This can either be reached by walking, or you can take the LYNX route 58, directly from Vista Cay
Below you will find a map of the area, where we have marked the relevant bus stops, and Vista Cay :
There are three bus stops that are relevant :
- Vista Cay main entrance. LYNX route 58 stops here. This is located 100 yards from our condo.
- Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) : I-Ride stop 28 is located here, as well as LYNX routes 8, 38, 42 and 58. This is less than a mile from Vista Cay West entrance.
- Canadian Court Road : LYNX 58 & 111 stops here. Route 111 takes you to Magic Kingdom in just over 30 minutes
Leaving in the morning :
To be honest, I would walk to the Canadian Court Road, or Orange County Convention Center. You can take Lynx Route 58, but the bus stop is "on the other side" of Universal Blvd. You have to cross this road, with three lanes in each direction. Currently there are no traffic lights here. Honestly I would find it more convenient to walk, Tradeshow Blvd is a non busy one lane road, no problem.
Getting back to Vista Cay :
This would depend on how the buses corresponds. Still it’s not that far to walk, but the temperatures are probably a bit higher. If you switches to bus 58 at either OCCC or Canadian Court Road, you exit on the “right” side of Universal Blvd. You do not have to cross Universal to get to the condo.
