From $590 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, a name-sign pickup adds $20, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace puts you right inside the Walt Disney World area, where the parks are not a day trip but the neighborhood. The Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, and Disney Springs all sit close by, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom rounds out the corner of the map you will be exploring. Just outside the gates, the picket fences of Celebration mark the edge of it all. For a group stepping off a ship in Miami, it is a straightforward destination to aim for: one address, deep in the middle of everything Orlando visitors come to see.
When your driver pulls up, the ride ends at the property’s own entrance, with your bags carried the last few steps to the curb beside you. There is no second stop to make and no shuffle between transfers on the way in. Whether you are checking in for a multi-day park stay or using the hotel as a comfortable landing spot after the cruise, arriving in your own vehicle means the group walks in together, on your schedule rather than a shuttle’s.
For the details that belong to the building itself, the property is the place to ask. Room types, on-site parking, and check-in timing are all questions the hotel answers best, so it is worth confirming those directly with Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace’s official page before you travel. What the ride handles is getting your whole party from the terminal to that front door, so the only thing left to sort out when you arrive is which park comes first in the morning.
The trip runs straight from the cruise terminal to the hotel, with no shared stops and no changes along the way. Your driver meets your group at the exact terminal your cruise line uses, times the pickup to when you actually walk off the ship, and loads the luggage into the vehicle before you settle in. From there it is one continuous run north, following Florida’s Turnpike toward the Walt Disney World area, with fuel and standard tolls already covered inside the flat fare.
Plan on roughly 233 to 241 minutes door to door for the 228-mile route, allowing for anything from quiet highway to the heavier weekend flow around the port. Saturday and Sunday mornings are the busiest, when thousands of passengers disembark at once, so the pickup is planned around your real arrival rather than a fixed clock. When you reach Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace, the driver pulls up at the entrance and carries the bags to the curb.
A reserved driver removes the guesswork after a long flight or a cruise morning: no queue at a taxi stand, no surge pricing, no shared stops. The group rides together and the price on this page is the price you pay.
Reserve with a 50% deposit; hand the balance to the driver on the day by cash or card. Fares are quoted per vehicle, one way, with tolls and fuel included.
The regular window is 7 AM to 9 PM; night pickups in the SUV add $20 in Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 elsewhere. A child seat is $15 on request, and any added stop is $45 per 30 minutes.
A full-size suitcase per passenger fits the SUV with five aboard; groups of six or more move to a van sized 6-9 or 10-14 with the cargo space to match.
Up to 12 hours before pickup you can change passengers, luggage or extras. Dates are locked at booking and do not move.
Questions or ready to reserve? WhatsApp wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 and we take it from there.
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.
I didn’t feel like chasing a ride the morning I disembarked, so I reserved a private car from the terminal to Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace. There was a generous grace period from the agreed time, so I never had to rush to gather the bags. The car was spotless, and there was space for everything.
Traveling with our little ones, we arranged a private van to meet us at the cruise terminal and take everyone over to Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace. There was a name sign at the curb, so we spotted the driver immediately. The car seat was already installed, which was one less thing to worry about.
Bajamos del barco cansados pero contentos y un auto privado directo a Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace fue la decisión correcta. Teníamos los datos del conductor con anticipación, así que no había que adivinar nada en el puerto. Era un auto privado solo para nosotros — sin paradas ajenas — justo lo indicado para esa mañana. Lo reservaría para el próximo crucero.
Estava por conta própria e combinei um carro privativo para me esperar no terminal de cruzeiros quando o navio atracasse e me levar até Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace. Para sair do navio e chegar a Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace de forma confiável, valeu cada minuto. Já guardei o contato para o meu próximo cruzeiro saindo do PortMiami.
With the little ones, arranging a private car from the port to Hilton Orlando Buena Vista Palace meant no scramble on disembarkation morning. No line to stand in — we just went straight from the curb into the car. Honestly the most stress-free part of the whole trip — ship to hotel door with zero stress.
