Getting Around Cape Coral

Transportation is always an important consideration while you’re out travelling. Depending on where you’re going, public transportation isn’t always immediately available, and there are times when a rental car might not be in the budget or you just don’t want to have to worry about driving yourself around while you’re enjoying your vacation. Regardless of the reason, getting to know your options while you’re visiting Cape Coral can help you plan out your trip and ensure you can always get where you need to go. Here are a few of the options available to you while you’re in town.

Cape Coral Taxi and Fort Myers Taxi Service, Lyft, or Uber

As Southwest Florida’s largest taxi and transportation company, there are a host of options available to you for paid transport in both Cape Coral and Fort Myers. Bluebird Taxi, Yellow Cab, Checker Airport Transportation, and more all fall under their umbrella, and they make use of state-of-the-art computer monitoring in order to make sure all of their services are functioning safely and up to standard.

This company is locally owned and operated and performs comprehensive drug and background screenings on all of their employees, so you can ride with peace of mind knowing you’re riding with a high standard and all of the required licensing. They also take pride in moving to be as environmentally friendly as possible.

You can schedule your transportation in advance online or call up a cab as needed. Their service covers a fairly wide area, so if you’re looking for a longer trip out of town, check online to see if they extend their service that far.

Lyft and Uber also run in Cape Coral and Fort Myers, so if you’re a fan of using either of those services, you’re able to do so at your leisure.

Affordable Public Transportation with LeeTran

LeeTran operates 22 trolley and bus routes throughout Cape Coral, Fort Myers, and Bonita Springs, including all the beaches there and in between. This is a great service to utilize if you’re planning on hitting the local hot spots, and they offer highly affordable rates. You can hop on a single ride for 75 cents, get an all-day pass for $2, or a three-day pass for $4. Discounted rates are also offered for seniors 65 and older, disabled persons, and full-time students. Make sure you bring exact change, or you can also make use of their contactless payment through the app.

Driving Your Own Vehicle

If you do bring your own vehicle or rent one, it’s the recommended method of transportation around the area. Though the above services do cover a comprehensive portion of the area, the only true way to avoid the wait times is to operate your own vehicle. This comes especially recommended because, while certain areas are pedestrian-friendly, most of the area is not. Getting from one area to another comes with a lot of distance, and the highway is often the only way to get there.

There’s usually no need to worry about inclement weather unless heavy rain or a hurricane is coming through, as the area is relatively temperate all year and there’s no snow on the roads during winter.

Whatever method you’re using to get around, you’ll always have the perfect vacation spot to return to with Vacanza Rentals. Book one of our short-term rentals now and see your way around Cape Coral and Fort Myers.
