From $210 per vehicle, a private one-way ride from Port of Miami to Leisure City — your whole group in one car.
The figure below is a flat, per-vehicle price for the full run from PortMiami to your address, fixed at the moment you reserve and unaffected by demand spikes or traffic. Pick the tier that matches your party and cruise luggage.
As the ship clears and passengers begin to step off, the driver is already at the curb outside the assigned PortMiami terminal. The port decides which building a vessel uses for each sailing, so the ship name and disembark date on your booking are what place the car in the correct lane that morning. Cruise luggage — checked bags and carry-ons alike — goes straight into the SUV or van, and the driver handles the loading at both ends. From there it is one non-stop run south to your door, with no shared seats and no waiting on another party to gather.
Leisure City is a relaxed residential community in south Miami-Dade County, set right beside Homestead and the edge of the Redland farming belt. The rhythm here is suburban rather than downtown — neighborhood shopping plazas, family restaurants, local parks and schools in place of high-rise nightlife. Plenty of cruise travelers treat Leisure City as a staging point toward the Florida Keys or the national parks that open up just south and west of town. For civic services and local information, the neighboring city keeps the City of Homestead’s official website.
The trip is a straight southbound drive across Miami-Dade County, a corridor the driver knows well. No set minute count is posted, since disembark-day timing genuinely shifts with the hour: an early, off-peak start clears the metro quickly, while a mid-morning exit that overlaps several ships unloading at once — or a late-afternoon rush — bogs down the exits pulling away from the port. Instead of promising a number that a busy port morning would break, the driver builds the plan from your real pickup slot and the day’s live conditions. Since the price is fixed at booking, a heavier traffic day costs you nothing extra on the way to Leisure City.
A ride to Leisure City is priced one-way and per vehicle, so a round trip is simply two legs reserved together. Booking is confirmed with a 50% deposit, and the rest goes to the driver on the day of travel. The standard meet-and-greet at the terminal curb is part of the fare — the driver finds your group as you come out with your bags. Prefer to be met by a printed name sign held at the exit? That greeting is a $20 add-on. The night before travel, the driver’s name, vehicle and plate arrive by message so you know exactly who to look for.
Standard daytime pickups fall between 7:00 AM and 9:00 PM at no added cost. A pickup booked beyond those hours adds a modest late-hour fee set by the vehicle class.
Florida law expects young children in an approved car seat, and none comes off the ship, so the driver supplies one. On Port of Miami runs a child seat is a $15 add-on; pass along the age and approximate weight of each child at booking so the correct seat is fitted before pickup. Need a quick errand or a second address on the way? An added stop runs $45 for each 30 minutes and is arranged ahead so the driver holds the time.
You pay one flat price for the whole vehicle, never per head. The rate shown covers everyone in your party, whether you ride the SUV or a van, and filling the seats within a tier does not lift it. Choose the tier that fits your group and luggage.
The pickup re-times at no extra charge. Your driver follows the ship’s real arrival and disembark timing, so a late dock only shifts the meet later while the flat rate stays put. Step off when your group is ready and the car adjusts to you.
Plan on about one checked bag and one carry-on per passenger, with cruise luggage accounted for, and the driver lends a hand loading at both ends. Bringing extra or oversized pieces? Note it on WhatsApp ahead of time so the right vehicle — or a move up to a bigger van — is ready.
Yes, with notice. A short stop — a grocery run or a nearby second drop — can be built into the route when you set it up at booking. Added stops are billed at $45 per 30 minutes so the driver can hold that time for your group.

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.
There were nine of us stepping off at PortMiami, and one private transfer to Leisure City was the easy way. For a stress-free way to get from the port to Leisure City, it was well worth it. There was a courtesy waiting window from the agreed time, so we never had to rush to gather the bags.
Mi esposa y yo no queríamos el caos de taxis en PortMiami, así que reservamos un viaje privado a Leisure City. Sin estacionamiento que recorrer — caminamos de la terminal a un auto que ya estaba ahí. La tarifa estaba era el número que nos dieron, sin subir porque el puerto estaba lleno.
