Thanks Ken
So it should be an easy walk from Port to Marriott coz i dont think the cab will take us for a short ride like that? I chk your photos, they're really big help to a lot of posters. Do you think if we go early early to the Port, knowing that we cannot embark that early, any place we can leave our luggage, while we stroll along channelside before embarking.

Unfortunately to date there are no car rental agencies that have a drop off at the port. But, a while back in this thread a poster from out of town mentioned they had found 2 agencies that would either pick you up at the port coming in. Or drop you off at the port when you return your car going out. I can't remember which ones they were though.
seems that there is a Hertz at Marriott Waterside, this is what i am getting for p/u place when i booked my rental, and it is very close to the port.

ewanko - It's a mile, maybe less, depending on which terminal. In any instance, it's close, but much to far to walk.

Goin' to Orlando after our cruise, chk Amtrak website, found a train schedule from TPA to ORL for $ 27, 2 Adult, 2 C, how far is the station from the Port. Seems to be a very good deal.

Ken,
Thanks for all that info. We just came back from our cruise, it was so goooood that we wanted to stay for more,but need to face reality.
We stayed at Wyndham Westshore, very convenient, no need for rental car, mall is just accross the road, shopped for what we need for the cruise, clothes, watershoes, water, ponchos etc.
On the day of the cruise, we took a cab to the port (about $20), we arrived around 11:00am, didnt get a chance to leave again, chk in was a breeze, we were eating lunch at Horatio's around 12. Upon return, found out that there is a car rental (Hertz) at the port itself, chked them if I can pick my rental from there, my reservations has Marriott Waterside for p/u, they did not have available car at the port, but provided a shuttle to Marriott which is like 2-3 minutes ride so it wasnt bad at all. Drove from Tampa to Orlando, reached in an hour or so.
