From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Orlando to Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale/Plantation Hotel in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way trip, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
The meeting point is simple: the entrance of your hotel or resort, or the front door of the home where you are staying in the Orlando area. The driver helps with the suitcases, settles everyone in, and takes the direct route south to the destination. A 15-minute courtesy wait is included at the pickup address.
The Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale/Plantation Hotel sits in Plantation, a calm suburban pocket in Broward County just west of downtown Fort Lauderdale. It is the kind of neighborhood built around office parks, shopping plazas, and easy highway connections rather than crowds, which makes it a level-headed base for travelers who want to be close to the coast without paying for a room right on the sand.
From this address the rest of South Florida opens up in every direction. The Atlantic beaches are a short local drive away, as is the Las Olas dining strip with its restaurants and sidewalk tables, and the cruise port sits within reach of the same quick run east. Because Plantation leans on simple highway access, guests can point the car toward the water, toward Fort Lauderdale proper, or toward the wider region without fighting through a dense city center first.
Inside, the hotel offers the familiar Hampton Inn comforts that business and leisure guests expect, the sort of steady, predictable stay that lets you drop your bags and get on with the trip. It is a practical landing spot: quiet enough to rest after a long day on the road, yet close enough to the coast, the dining, and the port that none of South Florida feels far away. We bring you straight to its front entrance, so the final stretch of your journey ends at the door rather than at some distant lot or terminal.
Your driver comes to you first. Give us the resort lobby, vacation home, or street address anywhere in the Orlando area, and the vehicle arrives at the agreed time to load your bags and gather your whole party. From there the trip runs south, tracing Florida’s Turnpike and I-95 down through Central Florida and into South Florida in one continuous drive. The same driver stays with you the entire way, so there is no changing vehicles and no waiting on other passengers.
Orlando to the Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale/Plantation Hotel is roughly 232 miles one way, and the vehicle is yours alone for all of it. If you would like to break the run for a meal or a stretch, let us know when you book and we can build a stop into the plan. When the miles are behind you, we pull up to the hotel’s front entrance in Plantation and unload your luggage right at the door.
The car waits for you, not the other way around. Your group travels together with the luggage in the same vehicle, the fare is known before the ride, and the driver takes the direct route to the destination.
No. A 50% deposit secures the booking and the remaining half is paid to the driver on the day, cash or card. Nothing else is charged unless you add an extra service.
Daytime service runs 7 AM to 9 PM; outside that window the SUV carries a night fee of $20 inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 beyond. The first child seat or booster is included on request; each additional one is $20. Extra stops along the way are $45 per 30 minutes.
Count passengers and bags and the vehicle follows: the SUV for up to 5 with luggage, the vans for 6-9 or 10-14. There is no splitting a group across cars.
Yes for the details: add a passenger, a child seat or a note up to 12 hours before the pickup time. No for the date, which stays as booked.
Message us on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 with your date, passenger count and luggage, and we confirm the vehicle and the pickup details.
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.
At MIA your driver meets you at the arrivals level at the curb, and that greeting is included in the fare. If you would rather be met inside the terminal with a name sign, add the Meet & Greet for $40 when you book. At the cruise port the curbside greeting is always included.
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. The first seat or booster is included with your booking, each additional one is $20, and they are 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, the Meet & Greet at MIA, child seats, extra stops or the night fee, each shown in the quote before you pay. Tipping is at your discretion.
Para nuestro escape hicimos primero unos días en Orlando y después Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale/Plantation Hotel, y como no queríamos pasar el día manejando, reservamos una SUV privada. Pedimos una recogida temprano para ganar media jornada de playa, y el conductor estaba ahí antes de que termináramos de bajar.
Booked a private van for the family from Orlando down to Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale/Plantation Hotel so the kids could nap after the week we’d had instead of us stressing at the wheel. It is a long way down and we barely noticed it — good conversation when we wanted it and quiet when we didn’t.
Moving a big group from Orlando down to Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale/Plantation Hotel is usually a headache — one pre-booked van made it painless. The run down the Turnpike was handled from start to finish, and we never once thought about traffic.
Depois dos parques em Orlando, o grupo todo entrou numa van privativa só para a descida até Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale/Plantation Hotel, e foi a parte fácil da viagem. Sinceramente a parte mais fácil da viagem toda — tudo simplesmente funcionou. Gostamos tanto que já reservamos a mesma empresa para a volta no fim da viagem.
My partner and I split the trip between Orlando and the beach, and a private transfer from our hotel down to Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale/Plantation Hotel made the switch seamless. It is a long way down and we hardly felt it — the car was so comfortable the time went by. We got a text the morning of confirming the pickup time in Orlando, and the car was already waiting — nothing to chase.
