From $335 per vehicle — a private, one-way transfer from Port of Miami to Marco Shores-Hammock Bay, driven door to door across South Florida.
Each fare below covers the whole vehicle rather than a seat, so the entire group rides for one flat number — set the moment you book and unchanged by traffic or the day’s demand.
Once your ship ties up and the gangway opens, clear customs and step out to the terminal curb, where the driver is already positioned — meet and greet comes with every booking at no charge. Ask for a name sign when you reserve and the driver holds one up for an added $20, which helps a larger cruise party spot the vehicle in a crowd. There is no rush to load a week’s worth of cruise luggage, and the run toward Marco Shores-Hammock Bay starts the moment everyone is settled in.
Marco Shores-Hammock Bay is a quiet, upscale residential community on the Gulf side of the state, sitting at the edge of the Naples and Marco Island area. Daily life here revolves around golf-course streets, gated lanes and mature landscaping — a calm counterpoint to the port bustle left behind on the Atlantic coast. Most travelers booking this route are visiting family, closing on a home, or basing themselves near the region’s beaches, marinas and waterfront dining before or after a sailing. The surrounding coast leans firmly toward the outdoors, with golf, boating and an unhurried Gulf-side pace shaping the days.
This is a true coast-to-coast crossing rather than a short downtown hop. From the port the route works over to I-75 — the long stretch known as Alligator Alley — and carries your group across the open Everglades corridor toward the Gulf and the Naples shoreline. Off-peak, the highway flows steadily and the miles pass without fuss; a busy disembarkation morning, when several ships empty at once, can slow the first stretch out of the terminals before the road opens up. Because the driver times the pickup to your real ship clearance instead of a fixed clock, a heavy-traffic start costs a little patience and never the ride itself. Expect a longer journey than a typical port-to-hotel transfer, since it spans the peninsula from one coast to the other.
Three private tiers cover any headcount, and each is held for your party alone with no shared seats. The black SUV takes up to five, a good fit for a couple or a small family with cruise bags. The mid-size van carries six to nine travelers, and the largest van seats ten to fourteen — room for an extended family or a group leaving one ship together. Whichever tier you pick, everyone stays in a single climate-controlled vehicle for the whole run to Marco Shores-Hammock Bay instead of splitting across cars.
Pricing is one-way and per vehicle; a round trip is simply that fare doubled, arranged as both legs with the same driver held for your return. A 50% deposit confirms the reservation, and the remaining half goes to the driver on the day of travel — paid by Venmo, Zelle, or a secure link sent over WhatsApp. Tolls and fuel already sit inside the quoted fare, so nothing extra accrues on the road. A child seat is $15 each when you share the child’s age at booking, and an added stop along the way runs $45 per thirty minutes when arranged in advance.
The standard daytime window runs 7 AM to 9 PM. A pickup scheduled outside those hours carries a small night charge: for the SUV it is $20 within Miami-Dade or Broward and $50 once the run reaches beyond those counties. Share your exact pickup time when you reserve and the full total is confirmed up front, so an early pre-dawn debark holds no surprises at the curb.
Nothing on your side, and no extra cost. The driver follows the vessel’s real arrival and disembarkation timing and shifts the pickup to match. When customs runs long, the meeting simply moves to your actual exit — no rebooking and no lost fare on a slow morning.
Per vehicle, every time. Whether two of you ride or a full van of fourteen, the group shares the single flat rate listed above. That makes the private car strong value for families and larger cruise parties splitting one fixed cost on the way to Marco Shores-Hammock Bay.
Plan on a checked bag plus a carry-on for each traveler, with genuine room for cruise luggage. If your party has oversized or extra bags, send a quick note on WhatsApp beforehand and the driver confirms the space or moves you up to a larger van. Loading and unloading is handled for you at both ends.
Yes to both. A child seat is available at $15 per seat, so share each child’s age when you reserve and it is ready in the vehicle. Small pets are welcome with advance notice on WhatsApp, riding in a carrier. Each is simple to arrange as long as the request arrives before travel day.
Yes. The same private SUVs and vans handle pickups from Miami International Airport as well as the cruise terminals. If a flight and a sailing fall in the same trip, message the details and both legs are set under one booking, each at its own one-way fare and with a single point of contact.
Lock in your private, one-way transfer to Marco Shores-Hammock Bay in a couple of messages. Send your ship name, disembarkation date, pickup time, group size and drop-off address, and your vehicle, driver and fare come back confirmed. Message on WhatsApp at https://wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748.
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.
There were eight of us stepping off at PortMiami, and one private transfer to Marco Shores-Hammock Bay was the smart move. The driver got the whole pile of luggage in so we didn’t have to juggle it all.
Eu viajava sozinho e deixei pronto um carro privativo para me esperar no terminal de cruzeiros ao desembarcar e me levar direto até Marco Shores-Hammock Bay. O motorista cuidou das malas para eu não precisar fazer força.
Nuestro grupo reservó una van directo de la terminal a Marco Shores-Hammock Bay, y salió buenísimo. Lo último que quieres tras un crucero es un viaje que falle, y este fue confiable y puntual. Para llegar del puerto a Marco Shores-Hammock Bay sin estrés, fue dinero bien gastado. Muy recomendable.
No quería pelear por un transporte la mañana que bajamos, así que reservé un auto privado de la puerto a Marco Shores-Hammock Bay. Había una ventana de cortesía desde la hora acordada, así que nunca tuve que apurarme para pasar la aduana. Lo último que quieres tras un crucero es un viaje que falle, y este fue justo cuando lo necesité.
We got off the ship with the kids and a mountain of luggage, and a private van waiting at the port made the run to Marco Shores-Hammock Bay painless. The car was clean, cool, and comfortable, a relief in the Miami heat.
