Happy clients, our clients.

Why Rent a Bus in Port Canaveral?

If you bring a rental car or personal vehicle to Port Canaveral, you’ll have to pay to park it at the terminal while you cruise. Because most people don’t want to pay for parking for that long, many groups search for alternative ways to get to the cruise terminal. Here are a few potential options:

• Public transportation: Space Coast Area Transit offers buses throughout the Port Canaveral area. Although public transportation is affordable, it can take a long time, and you’ll have to get your group to a bus stop, which may not be near your hotel.
• Taxis and rideshares: Taxis or rideshares can pick your group up at your hotel and take you straight to the cruise terminal. However, if you have a large group you’ll need many vehicles, which can become expensive.
• Charter buses: Charter buses offer more privacy and convenience than public buses. Since you can divide the cost of the coach among dozens of passengers, a charter bus may also be more affordable than multiple taxis or rideshares. Shofur can help you find a full-size charter bus for up to 56 people or a minibus for up to 20.

Port Canaveral Cruise Departures and Arrivals

Port Canaveral provides a terminal for cruise ships from Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, and Disney. This means that Port Canaveral is visited by dozens of tour groups , religious organizations , and groups of senior citizens each year. A record 4.5 million cruise passengers passed through the terminal in 2016, so you’ll need to be careful when organizing your transportation to avoid sitting with your foot on the brake in traffic or driving in circles searching for parking.

When you book with Shofur, you can request a charter bus rental with WiFi or TVs to ensure your group won’t get bored if there’s a traffic jam on the way to the cruise terminal. You can also ask your driver to drop you off near the dock you’re embarking from so you don’t have to worry about finding a nearby parking spot.

Weddings in Port Canaveral

If you’re planning a wedding on a cruise ship, you may depart from Port Canaveral. But you can also get married in Port Canaveral itself or along the Space Coast. Many people choose to hold their celebration on the Victory Casino ship that floats around Cape Canaveral, and others opt for a wedding on the Indian River Queen paddleboat that travels around Cocoa, Florida.

Always longed for a beach wedding? Contact a resort in nearby Cocoa Beach, like Ocean Landings Resort and Racquet Club, to arrange a beautiful ceremony by the sea. Your charter bus can drop your guests off at the hotel and pick them up after the reception so they can enjoy themselves while knowing they’ll have a designated driver.

Victory Casino Cruises

The Exploration Tower also provides views of another popular field trip destination, the Kennedy Space Center.

At the space center, students can learn about the early astronauts at the Heroes & Legends exhibit and see the Space Shuttle Atlantis poised as though about to take flight. They can also walk among rockets from the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs at the Rocket Garden and experience exhibits about the possibility of going to Mars in the future.

If you know seniors who are looking for community college options, Eastern Florida State College lies about 20 minutes from Port Canaveral. Academic overachievers can tour the Florida Institute of Technology or the University of Central Florida, both located roughly an hour away.

Eastern Florida State College

Address: 1519 Clearlake Rd, Cocoa, FL 32922

University of Central Florida

Address: 4000 Central Florida Blvd, Orlando, FL 32816

Charter bus parking: Purchase your parking pass online at www.parking.ucf.edu . Your charter bus can then park at the Visitor and Parking Information Center.

EC Minibus was great, from beginning to end. I haven’t travelled abroad so I was quite nervous, hoping that our car would arrive, as scheduled, to take us to the airport. They answered my emails quickly, gave me the name of my driver, and make of vehicle. Martin arrived promptly and delivered us to London Heathrow quite nicely!

Infants and Mini Buses

By voosman12 , September 25, 2019 in Bermuda

Recommended Posts

I am trying to figure out transportation options for a 9 month old who will be with us, as we won’t have a car seat. Are the mini buses just considered a commercial bus, therefore exempt from car seats requirements in the US? Would just need transportation to Horseshoe, and don’t want any surprises when trying to catch a ride via bus, mini bus, taxi, etc. Anyone have issues with infants?

The minibuses are exempt from Bermuda car seat requirements. Car seats are not required on the minibuses, on taxis or on the public buses. (Even if someone brought a car seat there would be no way to secure it on the minibuses or buses)

Been on minibuses to Horseshoe a bunch of times including 4 rides in June. My observation is there were infants and there were no issues. Also if an infant was held in a parent’s lap not taking up a seat the drivers of the minibuses that I took did not charge for the infant.

Any transportation in Bermuda is exempt from the car seats requirements in the US, seeing that Bermuda is not in the US.

I would go with what Charles stated about the Bermuda requirements.

Thank you Charles4515 for the feedback. I wouldnt think there would be an issue, but thought of asking the community if anyone know just in case.

1025cruise, I will update my post (too late now) to include "like" the US, as I know that Bermuda is not in the US. That is what I meant in my post.

World News | Russia announces nuclear drills after Western officials talk of deepening involvement in Ukraine

Russia said Monday it plans to hold drills simulating the use of battlefield nuclear weapons amid rising tensions following comments by senior Western officials about the possibility of deeper involvement in the war in Ukraine.

The announcement came on the eve of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s inauguration to a fifth term in office and in a week when Moscow on Thursday will celebrate Victory Day, its most important secular holiday, marking its defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II.

The drills come in response to “provocative statements and threats of certain Western officials regarding the Russian Federation,” the Defense Ministry said in a statement.

It was the first time Russia has publicly announced drills involving tactical nuclear weapons, although its strategic nuclear forces regularly hold exercises. Tactical nuclear weapons include air bombs, warheads for short-range missiles and artillery munitions and are meant for use on a battlefield. They are less powerful than the massive warheads that arm intercontinental ballistic missiles and are intended to obliterate entire cities.

The Russian announcement was a warning to Ukraine’s Western allies about becoming more deeply involved in the 2-year-old war. Some of Ukraine’s Western partners have previously expressed concern that the conflict could spill beyond Ukraine into a war between NATO and Russia.

French President Emmanuel Macron repeated last week that he doesn’t exclude sending troops to Ukraine, and U.K. Foreign Secretary David Cameron said Kyiv’s forces will be able to use British long-range weapons to strike targets inside Russia. Some other NATO countries providing weapons to Kyiv have balked at that possibility.

The Kremlin branded those comments as dangerous, heightening tension between Russia and NATO. The war already has placed significant strain on relations between Moscow and the West.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Monday that Macron’s recent statement and other remarks by British and U.S. officials had prompted the nuclear drills.

“It’s a new round of escalation,” Peskov said, referring to what the Kremlin regarded as provocative statements. “It’s unprecedented and requires special attention and special measures.”

Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy head of Russia’s Security Council that’s chaired by Putin, said in his typically hawkish fashion that the comments by Macron and Cameron risked pushing the nuclear-armed world toward a “global catastrophe.”

It wasn’t the first time Europe’s military support for Ukraine has prompted nuclear saber-rattling. In March 2023, after the U.K.’s decision to provide Ukraine with armor-piercing shells containing depleted uranium, Putin said he intends to deploy tactical nuclear weapons on the territory of Ukraine neighbor Belarus.

The ministry said the exercise is intended to “increase the readiness of non-strategic nuclear forces to fulfill combat tasks” and will be held on Putin’s orders. The maneuvers will involve missile units of the Southern Military District along with the air force and the navy, it said.

The Russian announcement stirred little reaction in Ukraine, where the spokesman for the Military Intelligence agency, Andrii Yusov, said on national television: “Nuclear blackmail is a usual practice of Putin’s regime; it does not constitute major news.”

Western officials have blamed Russia for threatening a wider war through provocative acts. NATO countries said last week they are deeply concerned by a campaign of hybrid activities on the military alliance’s soil, accusing Moscow of being behind them and saying they represent a security threat.

Peskov dismissed those claims as “new, unfounded accusations leveled at our country.”

Germany said Monday it recalled its ambassador to Russia for a week of consultations in Berlin following an alleged computer hack of Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s party.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian drones hit two vehicles Monday in Russia’s Belgorod region, killing six people and injuring 35 others, including two children, local authorities said. The area has been hit by Kyiv’s forces in recent months.

One of the vehicles was a minibus carrying farm workers, Belgorod Gov. Vyacheslav Gladkov said.

It was not possible to independently confirm the report.

While Ukraine’s army is largely pinned down on the 1,000-kilometer (600-mile) front line due to a shortage of troops and ammunition after more than two years of fighting, it has used its long-range firepower to hit targets deep inside Russia.

In what has largely been a war of attrition, Russia also has relied heavily on long-range missile, artillery and drones to wreak damage on Ukraine.

The Kremlin’s forces kept up their bombardment of Ukraine’s power grid, with a nighttime Russian drone attack targeting energy infrastructure in Ukraine’s northern region of Sumy. Multiple towns and villages in the region, including Sumy, lost power, regional authorities said.

Russia attacked Ukrainian targets with 13 Shahed drones overnight, 12 of which were intercepted in the Sumy region, Ukraine’s air force said.

Putin orders tactical nuclear weapons drills after Lord Cameron’s comments on Ukraine war

Kremlin reacts to ‘provocative statements and threats’ made by Western officials about the conflict

Vladimir Putin has ordered drills simulating the use of tactical nuclear weapons days after the Kremlin reacted angrily to comments on the Ukraine war by Emmanuel Macron and David Cameron.

The drills are in response to “provocative statements and threats of certain Western officials regarding the Russian Federation,” the defence ministry said in a statement.

It was the first time that Russia has publicly announced drills involving tactical nuclear weapons, though its strategic nuclear forces regularly hold exercises.

Tactical nuclear weapons have a lower yield compared to massive warheads that arm intercontinental ballistic missiles intended to obliterate entire cities.

The announcement appeared to be a warning to Ukraine’s Western allies about becoming more deeply involved in the more than two-year war. Some of Ukraine’s Western partners have previously expressed concern about stoking the war amid fears it could spill beyond Ukraine and into a conflict between Nato and Russia .

Macron does not rule out sending troops to Ukraine

Emmanuel Macron, France’s president, repeated last week that he does not exclude sending troops to Ukraine , and Lord Cameron, the Foreign Secretary, said Kyiv’s forces would be able to use British long-range weapons to strike targets inside Russia.

The Kremlin described those comments as dangerous, adding to tension between Russia and Nato.

“It’s obvious we are talking about statements from Mr Macron and statements from British representatives,” Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin spokesman, said when asked by reporters what had prompted the drills, adding: “This is a completely new round of escalating tensions . It is unprecedented and requires special measures.”

Tactical nuclear weapons include air bombs, warheads for short-range missiles and artillery munitions and are meant for use on the battlefield.

The ministry said the exercise is intended to “increase the readiness of non-strategic nuclear forces to fulfil combat tasks” and will be held on Putin’s orders. The manoeuvers will involve missile units of the Southern Military District along with the air force and the navy, it said.

Ukraine strikes vehicles in Belgorod 

Meanwhile, Ukrainian drones hit two vehicles Monday in Russia’s Belgorod region, killing six people and injuring 35 others, including two children, local authorities said, in an area frequently struck by Kyiv’s forces in recent months.

One of the vehicles was a minibus that was carrying farm workers, Vyacheslav Gladkov, the Belgorod governor, said.

No other details were immediately available, and it was not possible to independently confirm the report from the border region.

While Ukraine’s army is largely pinned down on the 1,000-kilometre (600-mile) front line due to a shortage of troops and ammunition after more than two years of fighting, it has used its long-range firepower to hit targets deep inside Russia. The apparent aim is to disrupt Russia’s war logistics system by hitting oil refineries and depots, and unnerve the Russian border regions.

The Belgorod region was a staging ground for Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. It has come under regular attack ever since Russian forces retreated there from northeastern Ukraine early in the war following a counter-offensive by Kyiv.
