From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Hilton Garden Inn Orlando Airport 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.
Book with the ship’s name and the date, and the driver handles the rest at PortMiami: waiting at the correct terminal, helping with the suitcases, and leaving the port without a queue. The curbside meet-and-greet costs nothing extra; the inside name-sign welcome adds $20.
Hilton Garden Inn Orlando Airport is a full-service hotel set close to the city’s airport, which makes it a natural landing point at the end of a long travel day. It works just as well for a flight out the next morning as it does for a base to explore central Florida over several nights. Because it sits near the terminals, the drive from your gate or a nearby rental counter is short, and you settle in without a long haul once you reach the area.
On arrival, the hotel keeps the practical things travelers actually reach for. There are luggage holds for guests who land before a room is ready, and early check-in can be arranged when the schedule allows. The property runs its own front-desk services, and its official page is the place to confirm amenities and timing before you travel, so you know exactly what to expect when you walk through the door.
The hotel’s position also opens up more of the region than the theme parks alone. Beyond the attractions most visitors picture, Orlando has a real city to enjoy: the swans and open water of Lake Eola downtown, the boutiques along Park Avenue in nearby Winter Park, and arena nights at the Kia Center when there is a game or a show. Using Hilton Garden Inn Orlando Airport as a home base puts all of that within reach while keeping your return trip to the airport simple on your last morning.
The trip is one direct run from the cruise terminal to the hotel door. Once you disembark at PortMiami on Dodge Island, your chauffeur coordinates the pickup by message as you clear the terminal, so there is no scramble to find a ride with your bags in hand. A 30-minute courtesy wait window is built in to absorb a slow gangway, and a child seat for a little one under five comes at no charge.
From the port it is a single leg north on Florida’s Turnpike to Hilton Garden Inn Orlando Airport, covering about 235.7 miles in roughly 234 to 243 minutes depending on traffic and the hour. Your luggage rides in the vehicle with you, the car is reserved for your group alone, and when you reach the hotel your driver brings you right to the main entrance.
The fare covers the vehicle for your group alone, the driver’s time, tolls and fuel, the meet-and-greet at the pickup point and help with every bag. Extras such as a child seat or an added stop are priced separately and listed below.
Reserve with a 50% deposit; hand the balance to the driver on the day by cash or card. Fares are quoted per vehicle, one way, with tolls and fuel included.
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.
Black SUV for up to 5 passengers, van for 6 to 9, van for 10 to 14: the choice is made from your passenger and luggage numbers so nobody rides squeezed.
Details such as an extra passenger or a child seat can be adjusted up to 12 hours before the pickup. The date itself is fixed once booked, so double-check it before you confirm.
Reach us on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or by phone at 786-682-8748; send the date, passengers and luggage and the reservation is confirmed the same day.
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.
We came off the ship ready for a real bed and a private car straight to Hilton Garden Inn Orlando Airport set the tone for the rest of the trip. The night before, we got a text with the driver’s name and license plate, so there was no wondering which car was the right one on the way out. The SUV was spotless, a relief in the Miami heat.
We got off the ship with the little ones and a mountain of luggage, and a private van waiting at the port made the run to Hilton Garden Inn Orlando Airport so easy. The last thing you want after a week at sea is a ride that falls through, and this was there exactly when we needed it.
The two of us booked a private transfer for after the cruise so we wouldn’t deal with the port crowds getting over to Hilton Garden Inn Orlando Airport. Honestly the easiest part of the whole trip — the port end was completely handled.
Getting the whole party off the ship and over to Hilton Garden Inn Orlando Airport is usually a headache, but one pre-booked private van took the stress right out of it.
Traveling with the whole family, we arranged a private van to be waiting at the curb and take everyone over to Hilton Garden Inn Orlando Airport. No scramble at the port — we just went straight from the curb into the car. Getting to Hilton Garden Inn Orlando Airport straight from the terminal meant we could drop the bags and start the day.
