From $260 per vehicle, a private one-way ride from the Port of Miami cruise terminal straight to your Palm Springs address.
Each fare is the full price for the whole vehicle, set only by how many seats your group needs and fixed the moment you reserve — no per-head math and no surge on a busy disembarkation morning.
Once you clear customs and step out of your PortMiami terminal, the driver is already curbside and ready to load. A large ship unloads in stages: the color or number on your last-night luggage tag decides when you are called down, so the docking hour on your itinerary says less than the group you land in. Pass that detail along on WhatsApp once you have it, and the pickup lines up with your real exit. Courtesy waiting covers the first thirty minutes from the agreed time, leaving room to gather bags and family without a scramble. The standard curbside meet is part of every booking; a printed name sign held at the doors is an optional $20.
This is a highway run up the Florida coast rather than a quick downtown hop, so settle in for a steady, climate-controlled drive. When the lanes are clear the miles pass smoothly; a weekday rush, or a morning when several ships turn over at once, can thicken traffic on the terminal exits before it loosens further north. Because the driver follows your ship’s actual arrival, the clock starts when you truly walk out — not a time guessed on paper. If you want a tighter estimate for your own sailing date and pickup, a message to the team on WhatsApp brings back a current window.
Palm Springs is a settled residential village in central Palm Beach County, a short way inland from Lake Worth Beach. The streets are palm-lined and quiet, with an everyday, local rhythm that suits travelers winding down after a sailing. Day-to-day dining, supermarkets, and shopping plazas line the nearby Congress Avenue and 10th Avenue corridors, while the Atlantic beaches sit a short drive east and a few golf courses lie close at hand. It reads first as a real neighborhood — practical and unhurried rather than a resort strip. The driver takes you straight to whatever address you give: a home, a rental, or a local drop point in the village.
To hold your vehicle, a 50% deposit confirms the booking, and the remaining half goes to your driver on the day of the ride — nothing extra is collected at the curb beyond that balance. The prices above are one-way, a single direct run from the port up to Palm Springs. Need the return leg as well? A round trip is simply twice the one-way fare, and reserving both directions together keeps one driver and one confirmed pickup on file. Book at least a day ahead over WhatsApp or the website with your ship, terminal, sailing date, party size, and drop-off address, and your driver’s details arrive before you sail.
The number you agree to holds through traffic, demand, and the hour you travel, and it already covers tolls, fuel, and a hand with the cruise luggage at each curb. A child seat runs $15 each and is arranged when you book, so just say how many you need. Adding a stop along the route costs $45 per half hour. For oversized bags or any special request, a quick WhatsApp message before your travel day is the easiest way to sort it out.
Daytime pickups carry no surcharge between 7 AM and 9 PM. Because Palm Springs sits north of the Miami-Dade and Broward line, a ride that starts outside that window adds $50 for the black SUV, while a van takes a 10% after-hours premium on the fare instead. If disembarkation or a return flight pushes your pickup into the early morning or the late evening, flag it when you book so the driver plans around it.
Every booking is fully private — the SUV or van carries only your group, with no pooled riders and no side pickups. From the terminal curb to your doorstep the vehicle is yours alone. Because the flat price is per vehicle rather than per person, a full van costs the same whether five or fourteen people travel together.
Nothing changes on your side and nothing is added to the fare. The driver follows your ship’s real arrival and disembarkation, then shifts the pickup so the car is there when you step out. That is why the courtesy clock starts from your actual exit instead of a time guessed in advance.
Plan on a checked bag and a carry-on for each traveler, with space set aside for a week’s worth of cruise luggage. Carrying oversized or extra bags? A quick note on WhatsApp before the trip confirms the room or moves you up to a larger van. Your driver handles the bags at pickup and at drop-off.
Yes — disembarkation-day pickups are the core of this service. Book ahead with your ship and terminal, and the driver is curbside as you come off, ready to load bags and head north. Even when several ships clear at once and the terminal roads slow, your reserved car is waiting and the agreed rate holds.
Ready to lock in a private one-way ride from Port of Miami to Palm Springs? Message the team on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 with your ship, terminal, sailing date, party size, and drop-off address, and your driver’s name and vehicle details come through before the day of the ride.
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.
No port scramble — I walked off the ship and the car was waiting. Would book again.
Our whole group rode together straight from the port to Palm Springs, and nobody had to think about a thing.
Para un desembarque sin estrés, mi esposo y yo hicimos que un conductor privado nos recibiera en la terminal y nos llevara a Palm Springs. El conductor se ocupó de las valijas para que no tuviéramos que cargar nada. En el auto íbamos solo nosotros — sin recogidas de otros — justo lo que queríamos.
Con los pequeños, coordinar un auto privado de la puerto a Palm Springs significó nada de correr la mañana del desembarque. Había una ventana de cortesía desde la hora acordada, así que nunca tuvimos que apurarme para pasar la aduana.
A few friends and I came off the ship together and booked one private van from the cruise terminal to Palm Springs. The night before, we got a text with the driver’s name and license plate, so there was nothing to figure out when we walked out. The driver loaded all our cruise luggage so we didn’t have to struggle with anything.
