From $595 per vehicle — a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Davenport, door to door in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Each fare is a flat, one-way price for the whole vehicle, fixed the moment you reserve and unchanged by traffic, demand, or a busy disembarkation morning. Tolls and fuel are already folded in.
Once the ship clears and the group walks off the gangway, the driver is waiting curbside at the PortMiami cruise terminal, ready to load every suitcase. A meet-and-greet at the curb comes with the ride; to be met inside the terminal hall holding a name sign instead, add that for $40 when you book. Ship tracking is built in, so a vessel that docks behind schedule simply shifts the pickup time at no charge — there is nothing to re-book. A short courtesy wait is held at the terminal from the agreed pickup time while everyone gathers their bags.
The simplest way from the port to Central Florida is one reserved vehicle sized to the party: the black SUV for up to five travelers, or a van for six to nine or ten to fourteen. Send the sailing date, ship name, party size, and the Davenport address over WhatsApp or the website at least 24 hours ahead. A confirmation follows with the vehicle and the flat fare, and the driver’s name and plate arrive the day before. Same-day requests are reviewed by hand, though a car cannot be promised on short notice.
Davenport sits in Polk County, inside the vacation-home corridor that spreads out from the Orlando attractions region of Central Florida. The character is quiet and suburban — golf communities, lakes, resort-style neighborhoods, and chain dining along the main highways rather than a walkable downtown. That car-friendly layout is why families settle here after a sailing, within easy reach of the theme parks and outlet shopping nearby. One local quirk worth knowing: many vacation-home communities in Davenport reset their entry gate codes as guests turn over, so the code a friend used last season rarely still works. Ask the property manager for the current code and any arrival pass, then forward both with the house number and community name so the drop-off runs smoothly. For municipal details, see the City of Davenport’s official site.
This is a long-distance haul into Central Florida, not a quick cross-town hop, and the route climbs the state on Florida’s Turnpike. Off-peak, with light traffic, the miles move steadily; on weekday rush windows or a morning when several ships empty into the port at once, the first stretch out of Miami runs slower and the whole trip stretches with it. The driver plans the departure around the ship’s actual clearance time and picks the cleanest routing for that day’s conditions. Because the run is long, one short comfort stop for a restroom or a snack can be arranged along the way. Timing is given as a range rather than a fixed promise, since real conditions on the day set the final clock.
The one-way, per-vehicle fare covers the whole ride from the terminal curb to the door, with tolls, road charges, and fuel already included — nothing is settled on the road. Payment runs through a secure link, Venmo, or Zelle: a 50% deposit confirms the booking, and the remaining balance goes straight to the driver on the day of travel. The price is per vehicle, so the whole group rides for the single rate shown above, never a per-seat charge. A round trip is booked as two one-way legs at the same flat pricing.
A child seat can travel with the group for $15 each — say how many and the ages on WhatsApp so the driver arrives with them already fitted. The curbside meet-and-greet is part of every booking, while a name-sign greeting inside the terminal adds $40. If the plan needs an unscheduled stop en route, extra time runs $45 per 30 minutes. Flagging any of these ahead of time keeps the fare clear before travel day, with no surprises at the curb.
Daytime hours run from 7 AM to 9 PM with no added charge. A trip that falls outside that window carries a small after-hours fee on the SUV: $20 within Miami-Dade or Broward and $50 beyond those counties, which is what applies on a run reaching this far north. Larger vans carry a 10% night adjustment on the fare instead. Share the pickup time when you book and the exact figure is confirmed with the quote.
The rate is per vehicle, not per traveler — the whole group rides for the single flat price in the list above. Splitting that figure among the passengers usually beats a per-seat service, and it never climbs with traffic or demand. A round trip is simply two one-way legs at the same rate.
Yes. A party of six to nine takes the mid-size van, and ten to fourteen travelers fit the largest one, so a big family or group of friends stays together for the whole run north. Each van is a single private vehicle reserved for the group alone, at one flat per-vehicle rate. Traveling as more than one van? Say so on WhatsApp and the vehicles are coordinated to move everyone to Davenport together.
Yes. The same private, flat-rate service runs from Miami International Airport as well as PortMiami, which suits cruise travelers flying in before boarding or heading home afterward. The driver meets you on arrival with the same door-to-door handling. Share the flight details and the timing is kept aligned.
Book at least 24 hours ahead to lock the vehicle for the sailing date; the earlier the request lands, the easier it is to match an exact disembarkation morning. A confirmed pickup time can be moved with 24 or more hours’ notice, subject to availability. Same-day bookings are reviewed individually but cannot be promised.
Reserve the private Port of Miami to Davenport ride today. Send the ship name, sailing date, party size, and drop-off address by WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748, and the vehicle, flat fare, and pickup time are confirmed before you sail.
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. 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, 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.
The two of us arranged a private transfer for after the cruise so we wouldn’t deal with the port crowds on the way to Davenport. For a reliable way to get from the port to Davenport, it was absolutely worth booking. Honestly the most stress-free part of the whole trip — everything just fell into place at the terminal.
Traveling with the whole family, we arranged a private van to meet us at the cruise terminal and take everyone to Davenport. The night before, we got a text with the driver’s name and license plate, so there was no wondering which car was ours when we walked out. Honestly the easiest part of the whole trip — everything just fell into place at the terminal.
Our group of friends rode together straight from the terminal to Davenport, and it worked out great.
A few friends and I came off the ship together and booked one private van from the port to Davenport.
