Taking the Shuttle Bus

[kapeluza]

Sorry if this is a repeat. I've been looking through the threads and I don't see my answer.

I am in group camping but I am taking a shuttle. Does the shuttle skip the lines and drop you off at the entrance and you walk to your camping spot? Or how does the shuttle system work? Do you wait on the shuttle 4-5 hours too?

Thank you kindly for any help.

Hey there. The shuttle does skip the line of traffic and drops you off near the intersection of Woodland Ave & South 1st Ave.

You can see the dropoff point near the what stage, below the VIP G section here: img194.imageshack.us/img194/4999/broo12map.jpg

Pretty far from Groop. But if you are lucky you can find a golfcart taxi

Thank you so much!

Does the golf taxi have like a running schedule? 1 every hour? Or how does it work?

Is the trek from that location to group long? Sorry, sense of scale is off so I can't tell.

Thank you kindly.

From the drop off point I'd say it's a 15-20 minute walk depending how fast you're moving. Do the shuttle people get to go thru the VIP toolbooth then?

Anyone taken one of these before?

Golf taxis are completely random, and holy only a handful of people. It looks like their path goes along woodland ave, so if you hang out on the corner there you should have luck flagging one down.

I'm not sure how far it is distance wise, but I'd say it's at least a 30 minute walk.

Also, the shortcut that cuts through VIP isn't open on Thursday, so you'll have to walk up and around VIP. It's a pretty long walk.

So, it's like a 30 minute walk from the shuttle drop off point to Groop Camping? Is Groop Camping difficult to find? Are there signs that will guide us in the general direction of Groop Camping? How much does it cost to take one of those golf cart taxis, and how much does it cost? Thanks. :-)

Not sure if there are signs, but the streets are labeled on the map with street signs at each intersection, so it should be fairly easy to find

If I remember correctly the taxis cost ~$5 each, plus a tip if you're feeling generous. The cost may double if your suitcase takes up a seat that another passenger could use.
