From $175 per vehicle, a private one-way ride from MIA to the Hilton Garden Inn Ft. Lauderdale Airport-Cruise Port Hotel.
Every figure below is a flat, per-vehicle rate, locked the moment you book and never recalculated for traffic or demand — one price for the whole group riding to the Hilton Garden Inn.
Pickup keys off your actual arrival rather than a fixed slot, so a plane that touches down early or runs late just moves the moment the driver greets you. Step through the arrivals doors and the car is already at the curb, with WhatsApp on hand to fix the exact spot when the terminal is crowded. That curbside meet-and-greet is folded into the fare. Would you rather be found by name inside the building? Holding a name sign at the terminal is a $20 add-on set at booking. Bags load and the trip up to Broward gets under way.
The Hilton Garden Inn sits 23.4 miles (37.6 km) up the coast from Miami International Airport, a run of about 38 minutes when the road is clear and closer to 46 in weekday rush hours. Your driver leaves the airport on the I-95 Express lanes, heading north across the Miami-Dade line into Broward County, where the hotel waits in the Fort Lauderdale airport-and-cruise-port corridor. The gap between those two figures is traffic on the express lanes, not distance — midday and mid-evening departures land near the swift end, while morning and late-afternoon peaks push toward the longer one. A bigger party filling a van will want a couple of extra minutes at the curb to load, but the road time itself does not change.
The hotel stands on SW 18th Avenue in Dania Beach, in the pocket between Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport and the cruise-port terminals — a practical base for anyone catching a flight, boarding a ship, or working the office parks close by. The setting trades downtown density for swift reach to the beaches and the waterfront, so it suits travelers who want a calm night near their departure point. One thing worth flagging: several hotels along this corridor share almost the same airport-and-cruise-port wording in their names, so put the street — SW 18th Avenue, Dania Beach — in your booking message and the right building is pinned well ahead of pickup day.
Three private tiers cover almost any party. The Black SUV carries up to five passengers and their luggage — the everyday pick for couples, families, and small groups. Six to nine travelers ride together in one private van, and parties of ten to fourteen take the largest van, keeping a reunion, a work crew, or a wedding party in a single cabin rather than split across cars. Share a headcount and a rough sense of the bags when you book, and the right vehicle is matched to you instead of guessed at on the day.
Booking runs in two parts. A 50% deposit holds your vehicle and pickup time, and the balance goes straight to the driver on the day you travel — by Venmo, Zelle, or a secure link. The fare is charged per vehicle for the whole group, never per head, so filling the SUV or a van costs the same flat figure shown above. One-way is the base price; a round trip is that figure doubled, with both legs held under a single reservation. Require an added stop or extra waiting along the route? That runs $45 for every 30 minutes and is confirmed before travel day.
The flat rate buys the private vehicle, your bilingual driver in English plus Spanish or Portuguese, the curbside meet-and-greet, and every toll, SunPass charge, and the fuel burned on the way north. A mobile hotspot puts WiFi on board, and each traveler’s standard allowance — one checked bag plus a carry-on — rides at no added cost. A child seat for the first traveler under five is included, and each seat after that is $20, added when you book. A small pet may ride in its own carrier as long as you flag it on WhatsApp beforehand. Daytime pickups between 7 AM and 9 PM carry no surcharge; outside that window the Black SUV adds a flat $20 and a van adds 10% of the trip value. The lone optional extra beyond this list is the name-sign greeting inside the terminal mentioned earlier.
This is a fully private booking, start to finish. Only your group rides — no strangers folded in, no side stops to gather other passengers — from the MIA curb straight to the hotel door. SUV or van, the whole run north belongs to you.
Nothing on your end. The driver watches your inbound flight as it moves and re-times the pickup to fit, so landing ahead of schedule or well behind it only changes the hour you are collected. Nothing needs rebooking, and a plane that runs off schedule brings no penalty.
Per vehicle, every time. Your whole group rides for the single flat price listed above, so adding passengers within a tier’s capacity changes nothing — which is why a larger group often works out cheaper per head than buying seats one at a time.
Yes, though a later hop from the Hilton Garden Inn down to a ship or over to a second airport is a separate route with its own quote. Send the terminal or flight and the sailing or departure time over WhatsApp, and a price for that leg comes back beside your arrival booking.

Reserving a few days ahead is ideal, and in peak season (holidays, spring break, big cruise weekends) a week or more keeps your first-choice vehicle available. Requests inside 24 hours are welcome but depend on availability, and those bookings are non-refundable once confirmed.
We run on reservations rather than on-demand pickups. A same-day request may still work if a driver is free: message us on WhatsApp with the pickup time and we will confirm quickly. Keep in mind that a ride booked within 24 hours of pickup cannot be refunded.
No. A 50% deposit holds the vehicle when you book online, and the other half goes to your driver on the day of the ride, in cash or by card. If you prefer to settle everything at once, choose Pay in full at checkout.
Yes. After the deposit, the remaining half is paid directly to your driver when the ride is done, cash or card, whichever you prefer. There is nothing else to pay unless you added an extra service.
Cancellations are free up to 24 hours before the pickup. Inside that 24-hour window the ride is non-refundable, and no-shows are treated the same way. Booking details such as an extra passenger or a child seat can still be updated until 12 hours before pickup.
The pickup time and other details can be adjusted until 12 hours before the ride, subject to driver availability; write to us as soon as your plans change. The travel date itself is fixed once booked, so double-check it before you confirm.
Payments run through Stripe over an encrypted checkout; we never see your card number. Card payments carry a 3% processing fee that is shown before you pay. Zelle is also accepted for the deposit with no fee: ask us on WhatsApp.
Not at all. Travelers reserve from all over the world, international cards are accepted at checkout, and we answer on WhatsApp and email in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
Yes. Give us the flight number when you book and your driver tracks it in real time, so the pickup follows the actual landing rather than the scheduled one, at no extra cost.
Message us the moment you know. We reschedule around the new arrival whenever a driver is available; because that counts as a change to the booking, the cancellation terms above still apply if the ride cannot be rebooked.
Your driver meets you at the MIA arrivals level at the curb, and that meet-and-greet is included in the fare. If you would rather be greeted inside the terminal with a name sign, add the name-sign welcome for $20 when you book.
You receive the meeting instructions in advance, and the driver contacts you the day before the ride to confirm every detail. On landing, head to the agreed curb; connect to the airport Wi-Fi and message us on WhatsApp if anything is unclear.
The day before the ride we send the driver’s name and phone number, and the vehicle details you need to spot the car. Vehicle photos on the site show the category booked; the exact model can vary.
Call or WhatsApp us at +1 (786) 682-8748 and we connect you right away. The pickup is always coordinated at the confirmed spot, and the courtesy waiting time keeps running from your landing or your scheduled pickup.
At the airport we wait up to 60 minutes after landing on domestic flights and up to 2 hours on international arrivals; at hotels, homes and the cruise port the courtesy wait is 15 minutes. Beyond that, waiting is billed like an extra stop, $45 per 30 minutes.
The distance and the usual driving time for this exact route are listed on this page. Real timing depends on traffic and the hour, which is why the driver plans the pickup around your actual landing or ship arrival rather than a fixed clock time.
Yes. Your driver loads and unloads every bag at the curb. Drivers do not go inside the hotel or terminal to collect luggage, so have it with you at the meeting point.
Each passenger can bring one large suitcase plus one carry-on. The black SUV carries up to 5 passengers as long as passengers plus large suitcases total 10 or fewer; larger groups or extra bags move to a van. Surfboards, bikes or many extra cases need a custom setup, so tell us before booking.
Yes. Add them when you book: a child seat for babies and toddlers up to about 3 years, or a booster for ages 3 to 5. Each seat is $20 and is fitted before the driver leaves for the pickup.
Planned stops are fine when you add them at booking, priced at $45 per 30 minutes with a 30-minute minimum, then $1.50 per extra minute. Unplanned detours on the day are not part of the fare.
Never. Every transfer is private: the vehicle carries only your group, door to door, with no other pickups and no waiting for strangers.
A black SUV for up to 5 passengers, a van for 6 to 9 and a larger van for 10 to 14. The fare table on this page shows the price for each. For groups above 14 we arrange several vehicles or a minibus on a custom quote.
No. We pick up and drop off at Miami International Airport, PortMiami and the other cruise terminals, hotels, private homes, offices and event venues across South Florida and beyond.
Yes. Wedding parties, corporate groups and private events get a tailored quote with the right mix of vehicles; message us with the date, head count and schedule.
Between 9 PM and 7 AM the black SUV adds a night fee of $20 inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 farther out. The fee is shown in the quote before you book, and daytime rides carry no surcharge.
The fare shown is for the exact route named on this page. For a different pickup or drop-off address, use the ride search on this site: it prices the real road distance instantly and lets you book on the spot.
The fare includes the driver, fuel and tolls, with no hidden fees. Only optional items add to it: the 3% card fee, a name-sign welcome, child seats, extra stops or the night fee, each shown in the quote before you pay. Tipping is at your discretion.
Our group of friends booked one van straight from MIA, and it worked out great. Booking was easy, we got the pickup details in writing, and everything matched what we were told.
Aterrizamos en MIA con los niños de noche, y tener un conductor esperando fue justo lo que necesitábamos. Nuestro vuelo se retrasó y el conductor se acomodó sin problema — sin ninguna preocupación. El conductor fue muy experimentado, todo muy pulcro. Lo reservaría de nuevo sin dudarlo.
We flew into Miami with the little ones late at night, and having a driver waiting was exactly what we needed. The SUV was really comfortable after a long flight, a nice relief in the Miami heat. Landing late at night, it was a huge comfort to have a private car already waiting instead of hunting for a ride.
We came to Florida for our anniversary and starting the trip with a private airport pickup was the right move. It was a private car for our party alone, which made the ride to Hilton Garden Inn Ft. Lauderdale Airport-Cruise Port Hotel easy and calm.
Getting a big group out of the airport is usually a headache — one pre-booked van to Hilton Garden Inn Ft. Lauderdale Airport-Cruise Port Hotel made it painless. The ride to Hilton Garden Inn Ft. Lauderdale Airport-Cruise Port Hotel was easy and door-to-door.
