From $585 per vehicle, a private one-way black-car ride from the Port of Miami cruise terminal to your door in Christmas, Florida.
Each figure below buys the whole vehicle rather than a single seat, and it is fixed the moment you reserve — cruise-day traffic never nudges it up:
The terminal your sailing uses is printed on the boarding documents for that specific voyage, and a berth can shift from one season to the next, so the paperwork is what counts rather than memory of a past cruise. Send the ship name and that terminal on WhatsApp when you confirm. On disembarkation morning your driver stands at the curb as the group steps out of the Port of Miami cruise hall, greets everyone by name, and loads each bag before the wheels roll. A name sign held at arrivals is available on request, and the meet-and-greet at the curb is part of the ride, not an add-on.
Christmas sits as a tiny, rural dot in the Central Florida countryside, and its cheerful, calendar-page name keeps curious travelers arriving all year. Life there runs slow — wide open land, a few low-key roadside markers, and a post office that famously hand-cancels outgoing letters with a real Christmas postmark. What pulls people off the highway is the charm of that name paired with quiet green country, not any downtown bustle. Once the sailing is over the driver carries you the entire way to your Christmas address, so nothing is left to arrange after the ship.
The trip from the Port of Miami up to Christmas is a genuine long-distance haul into the middle of the state, not a quick city hop, and no set clock is promised here because the real answer moves with the day. On a turnaround morning the streets ringing the terminals can jam as several ships unload together, which leaves that opening leg away from the docks the slowest piece. Once the interstate opens the northbound miles fall into a steady rhythm, and a mid-morning or evening start rolls far more freely than a weekday commute peak. A holiday weekend or rough weather can add more still. Your driver tracks when the vessel actually clears and what you have waiting later, then sets the departure so the arrival never feels rushed.
The rate you see is one-way, and a round journey is just that number doubled, kept on one booking so the trip back holds the same price. A 50% deposit confirms the vehicle when you book, and the remaining half goes to the driver on the day of the ride. The charge is per vehicle for the whole party, never per head, so the number agreed at booking is the number paid — no surge, no shifting for demand on a busy cruise morning.
A few extras round out the ride when you need them. The curbside meet-and-greet is included, while a printed name sign held at arrivals adds $20 when you ask for one in advance. A child seat is $15, arranged when you book so families with little ones are set before pickup. If the long drive north calls for a break, one extra stop can be built into the route at $45 per 30 minutes, confirmed ahead of the trip so nothing is a surprise at the curb.
Pickups between 7 AM and 9 PM carry no night charge at all. Outside that window the SUV adds $20 for a trip that stays inside Miami-Dade or Broward, and $50 once the ride runs beyond those counties — which a haul up to Christmas does. The fee simply keeps a driver on hand for an off-hours run, and it is laid out at the time you book so the full amount is plain before the private transfer is confirmed.
No. The driver follows the vessel’s true clearance out of the Port of Miami and shifts the pickup to match at no charge, so a delayed dock or a long customs queue costs you nothing. There is no second booking and no second payment — the held vehicle simply waits for your real walk-off, and the agreed fare stands.
Plan on roughly one checked bag plus a carry-on per rider, with the black SUV sized for up to five people and their cruise luggage and the vans carrying six to fourteen. If your party is bringing oversized or extra bags, send a quick note on WhatsApp before the sail date and the right vehicle is set aside, so nothing is left standing at the terminal curb.
Per vehicle. The whole group rides together for the single figure shown in the price list, with no per-seat charge and no pooling alongside other travelers. From the Port of Miami terminal the car is yours alone, one private booking straight through to the front door.
Yes. The return leg is booked inside one reservation and priced at double the one-way fare, so a single driver and a set pickup time cover both the ride out and the trip back to the Port of Miami cruise terminal. Share the return date when you book and the vehicle is confirmed for each direction at once.
Message your ship name, the sailing date, how many are traveling, your Christmas address, and any child seat, and the driver, the vehicle, and the flat fare come straight back in one reply. Reach a real person on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or by phone at 786-682-8748, and reserve a day or more out for the calmest cruise-morning start.
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.
Mi esposa y yo no queríamos el caos de taxis en PortMiami, así que coordinamos un viaje privado a Christmas. Para llegar del puerto a Christmas de forma confiable, fue dinero bien gastado.
With the whole crew, pre-booking a private car from the port to Christmas meant nothing to sort out the morning we disembarked.
Con los niños, coordinar un auto privado de la terminal a Christmas significó nada que resolver la mañana del desembarque. La tarifa estaba cerrada al reservar, sin sorpresas en una mañana de desembarque cargada. Para llegar del puerto a Christmas sin estrés, valió mucho la pena. Sin estrés alguno.
Me quitó toda la preocupación de bajar del barco — facilísimo.
