From $655 per vehicle, a private one-way ride from the Port of Miami cruise terminal straight to your door in Paradise Heights.
Every fare below is the whole-vehicle price to any drop-off address — you pay per car, not per head, and the number is locked the moment you book.
Your driver stands curbside at the cruise terminal where your ship docks, ready as you roll out with your luggage. Before you reach that curb, the terminal now moves arriving passengers through a quick facial-comparison check at the officer stage — it clears in seconds when it matches and becomes a short question or two when it does not, and it always follows baggage collection. Knowing that step comes first keeps your timing honest, so you are not expecting the curb the instant you leave the ship. Request a name sign on WhatsApp beforehand and the driver holds it so your group spots the pickup in the terminal crowd.
Book one vehicle and the whole party travels together, with no shared seats and no detours to collect strangers. A black SUV carries up to five travelers; a private van takes a group of six to nine or ten to fourteen. The driver loads every suitcase, carry-on and duffel, then drives door to door to the exact address you provide — not a lot or a corner nearby. This same private run works in reverse, so passengers sailing out of the Port of Miami get a punctual pickup from Paradise Heights for the outbound cruise. To arrange it, send your ship, sailing date, group size and street address over WhatsApp.
Paradise Heights is a planned residential community of newly built single-family homes, known for quiet streets and an unhurried, family-minded feel well away from the noise of the cruise port. Most travelers heading this way are coming home, visiting relatives, or moving into a freshly finished house rather than chasing a tourist strip. Everyday needs — a grocery run, a casual meal, a neighborhood park, the usual errands — sit within a short local drive, and the calm, roomy layout is a welcome change after days aboard a ship. To picture the area first, explore the Paradise Heights community and view its homes and floor plans.
A 50% deposit confirms your booking, and the balance goes straight to the driver on the day of your ride — cash is fine for that half. Curbside meet-and-greet is already part of the fare, so the driver greeting your group and handling the bags adds nothing to the price. Want the driver to hold a printed name sign at the terminal? That is a $20 add-on. A child seat runs $15 on Port of Miami pickups, so ask for it at booking and it is fitted before you climb in. Need a quick errand on the way? An extra stop is $45 for each 30 minutes. Every price here is a one-way fare; a round trip is that fare doubled, booked as both legs at once.
Daytime service runs from 7 AM to 9 PM with no added charge. A pickup outside that window carries a small night fee on the SUV — $20 when the ride stays inside Miami-Dade or Broward, and $50 once it reaches beyond those counties. Give your pickup time when you book and the fee, if any, is confirmed up front, with nothing tacked on later at the curb.
Nothing changes on your end — the pickup simply shifts. Your driver follows the ship’s arrival and disembarkation timing, so a late dock re-times the ride with no penalty and no rebooking. Disembarkation morning is exactly what this ride is built around: give your ship name and arrival date, and the driver is in position as you come off, even on mornings when several ships empty at once. Clear the terminal and your reserved vehicle is waiting.
The rate is per vehicle, so the whole cruise group rides for the single price listed above — two people or a full van, the figure is the same. There is no per-seat math and no headcount surcharge to work out. A round trip is just double the one-way price.
Yes. Request it on WhatsApp before your trip and the driver holds a printed sign at the terminal exit for a $20 add-on, which makes the pickup easy to find in a disembarkation crowd. Every driver is bilingual, speaking English plus Spanish or Portuguese, so sorting out luggage and timing stays simple.
It is the most common pickup of all. Share your ship and arrival date and the driver tracks the timing ahead, ready at the terminal as you step off. Even when several vessels dock together and the roads around the port fill up, your reserved car is already there and the fare holds.
Yes — a child seat is $15 on Port of Miami pickups. Ask for it at booking so the driver installs it before your group reaches the curb. Traveling with several little ones? Confirm the number of seats on WhatsApp and the total is set before your ride.
Lock in your private transfer between the Port of Miami and Paradise Heights today. Message us on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 with your ship, sailing or arrival date, group size and drop-off address, and your vehicle and driver are confirmed. The driver’s name, vehicle and pickup details arrive the day before, so your cruise day stays calm from ship to door.
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.
Al bajar del barco solo, lo último que quería era pelear por un auto en el puerto, así que tenía un traslado privado esperando para llevarme a Paradise Heights. Había un buen período de gracia desde la hora acordada, así que nunca tuve que apurarme para bajar del barco.
Para un desembarque sin estrés, mi esposo y yo hicimos que un conductor privado nos esperara en la terminal y nos llevara a Paradise Heights. El SUV estaba impecable, con lugar para todo. Para llegar del puerto a Paradise Heights de forma confiable, valió mucho la pena.
Traveling with our little ones, we booked a private van to meet us at the cruise terminal and take everyone to Paradise Heights. No line to stand in — we just stepped out and the car was ready. The kids crashed in the car after the cruise, and getting straight to Paradise Heights without a scramble at the port was a relief. No stress at all.
Getting all of us off the ship and out to Paradise Heights is usually a headache, but one pre-booked private van made it effortless. For a no-hassle way to get from the port to Paradise Heights, it was absolutely worth booking.
Getting the whole party off the ship and out to Paradise Heights is usually a headache, but one pre-booked private van took the stress right out of it. We knew the plan before we even docked, so there was no guessing at the port.
