From $350 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Naples Garden Inn in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full trip one way. Choose by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
Tell us the ship and the driver times the pickup to its arrival, then waits at your terminal’s curb at PortMiami. The meet-and-greet there is included in the fare; a name-sign welcome is a $20 add-on. From the port the ride is direct, with no other passengers.
Naples Garden Inn puts you in Naples, the town that gives Florida’s Gulf coast its quiet polish. This is the far side of the peninsula from the cruise terminals, a place of white sand, warm water, and evenings that slow right down. After the tight schedule of a sailing, arriving here feels like a change of pace: the streets are walkable, the light is soft, and the coast is close enough to reach on foot once you have settled in.
Much of what draws travelers sits within easy reach of the stay. Fifth Avenue South runs its blocks of white-tablecloth dining and small shops a short way off, and the historic Naples Pier is a favorite spot to watch the sun drop over the Gulf. For a greener afternoon, the Naples Botanical Garden and Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park are both nearby, and the Everglades sit at the back door for anyone who wants to swap the shoreline for open wilderness. It is a compact base with a lot within a short radius.
Your part of the trip ends the moment the car reaches the inn’s entrance. The chauffeur pulls up, unloads every bag, and hands you off to the front door without a shuttle line or a walk across a lot. Details about rooms and the property itself live on Naples Garden Inn’s own page; our job is the ride between the ship and this address, planned so the two connect cleanly and you arrive ready to enjoy the coast.
Once your ship docks and your group clears the terminal exit, the chauffeur is already staged at the curb. Bags go straight into the vehicle, and the run to Naples Garden Inn is a single direct leg by I-75 — no transfers, no shared stops, no luggage dragged across the port. Thirty minutes of courtesy wait is built in at the terminal, so a slow disembarkation does not throw off the pickup.
Plan on roughly 128 to 140 minutes from the terminal to the door, depending on the hour and traffic. Saturday and Sunday mornings are the port’s busiest stretch, with thousands of passengers walking off ships at once, so your pickup is timed to your actual arrival rather than a fixed clock. Leaving for the ship on embarkation day, the same flat one-way rate covers the reverse leg, with the chauffeur meeting you at the hotel entrance to load the bags.
Rideshare lines and shared shuttles add waiting and extra stops; a private vehicle leaves when you are ready and goes only where you are going. The fare covers the whole car, the tolls and the fuel.
You pay a 50% deposit online to hold the vehicle, then the balance directly to the driver on the day, in cash or by card. The one-way fare above is the whole amount.
The regular window is 7 AM to 9 PM; night pickups in the SUV add $20 in Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 elsewhere. A child seat is $15 on request, and any added stop is $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.
Send any change to the party or extras at least 12 hours before the pickup. The booked date is final.
Questions or ready to reserve? WhatsApp wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 and we take it from there.
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.
The two of us cruised from PortMiami and having a private car waiting curbside for the ride over to Naples Garden Inn was the best part of the day. The car was spotless, a relief in the Miami heat.
We booked one van for the entire crew from the terminal to Naples Garden Inn so nobody got left behind. There was a courtesy waiting window from the agreed time, so we never had to rush to gather the bags. The SUV was spotless, a relief in the Miami heat. Would book again for the next cruise.
We weren’t about to juggle the little ones and the bags looking for a ride at the port, so we reserved a private van to Naples Garden Inn. We were dropped right at the front door of Naples Garden Inn, not down the block. For a reliable way to get from the ship to Naples Garden Inn, it was money well spent.
Viajando con los niños, reservamos una van privada para que nos esperara en la terminal de cruceros y llevara a todos hasta Naples Garden Inn. Había treinta minutos de margen desde la hora acordada, así que nunca tuvimos que apurarme para juntar las maletas. El viaje de la terminal a Naples Garden Inn fue fácil todo el camino, y pudimos relajarnos tras el crucero.
No app hassle — we walked off the ship and a clean, private car was waiting, then straight to Naples Garden Inn. Highly recommend. An easy, relaxed handoff for the two of us — off the ship and into Naples Garden Inn with nothing left to sort out.
