From $570 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to West Canaveral Groves, straight to your door.
The fare covers the whole vehicle, is fixed the moment the reservation is confirmed, and stays put through traffic, demand, or the hour of day. Choose the vehicle that suits your group below; a round trip is billed as two one-way legs at the same figure.
The pickup happens right at the PortMiami cruise terminal. Your driver is in place as the group walks off the ship, tracking the vessel’s true docking time instead of a fixed hour, so a slow customs line or a late berth does not leave anyone stranded. A greeter meets you as you clear the building and lends a hand with the cruise bags on the way to the vehicle. Share the ship name and the disembarkation date at booking, and send any change on WhatsApp so the driver can shift the timing without a rebooking.
West Canaveral Groves sits on the rural, inland side of Florida’s Space Coast, inside Brevard County. Instead of high-rises, you find wide wooded lots and oversized parcels, with the loose, countryside spacing that appeals to people wanting land and elbow room a short reach from the ocean. The area belongs to the broader Cocoa and Cape Canaveral region, so the space-program landmarks and Atlantic beaches the coast is famous for lie in the surrounding stretch. The tone is residential and unhurried — somewhere people actually live rather than a resort row.
This is a long, freeway-speed haul heading north away from Miami toward the Space Coast — nothing like a short trip across town. The clock depends on when the ship is released and how the highways are flowing; a morning when several vessels unload together tends to drag, while a mid-day start generally moves better. The flat rate does not budge for any of it, so heavier traffic never adds to the bill. Since the driver follows the ship’s docking, the pickup is set to your actual walk-off time.
The Space Coast runs on its own schedule. On a day with a scheduled launch, crowds gather along the coast well before liftoff and certain roads or access points shut for the window, opening again once the vehicle clears the pad or the count is called off. If a launch falls on your arrival date, mention it when the booking goes in so the drive north can be routed around the closures rather than running into them near the end of a long trip.
Payment splits between booking and the trip itself. A 50% deposit holds the vehicle when the reservation goes in, and the balance goes to the driver on the day you travel. The charge is per vehicle for the whole group, never per person, and a round trip is simply two one-way legs at the listed rate. The driver’s name, vehicle, and plate reach you the day before.
A few things travel with the price, and a couple carry a small, stated add-on. Tolls and fuel are folded into the fare, and meet-and-greet at the terminal comes standard. A name sign held at the curb is $20 when you request one on WhatsApp. A child seat is $15 on trips leaving the Port of Miami, so pass along the child’s age at booking to have the right seat fitted. Should the plan need an extra stop en route, that runs $45 for each 30 minutes. Each add-on is confirmed ahead of the day, so nothing surprises you at the curb.
Daytime pickups run from 7 AM to 9 PM with no add-on. A trip that begins outside that window carries a night fee on the SUV: $20 when the pickup sits inside Miami-Dade or Broward, and $50 once it lies beyond those counties. The fee is tied to the SUV and named up front, so an early sailing or a late-clearing ship never becomes a curbside surprise.
In this part of Brevard the parcels are big, the driveways stretch back, and a street number may only appear out at the roadside. Drop a map pin on the precise point where the vehicle should pull up, and say whether the gate at the driveway’s end is left open. That single message clears up the one genuinely tricky part of an otherwise plain run north to West Canaveral Groves.
It is a highway-paced drive north from the port toward the Space Coast, well past the length of a city hop. The exact time turns on when the ship clears the terminal and how the roads move that day, so a firm figure is set once the disembarkation window is known. Whatever the highways do, the flat rate holds.
The rate is per vehicle, so the whole group rides for the single price listed above. There is no per-person charge and no surge at busy times. A round trip is billed as two one-way legs at that same flat figure.
Yes — a pickup on the day you disembark is the usual case. Book at least a day ahead with the ship name and arrival date so the driver can plan around the terminal’s debark timing. You reach West Canaveral Groves as soon as you are through the terminal, in a vehicle held for your group alone.
The community itself stays rural and residential, set back from the busier beach towns. The wider Space Coast around it is bound up with America’s space program and lined with Atlantic beaches and pockets of preserved land and waterways. Most visitors base themselves in the nearby Cocoa and Cape Canaveral area for lodging and dining, while the Groves keeps its quiet.
Yes to both with a heads-up at booking. A child seat is $15 on trips out of the Port of Miami, and small pets ride when carried in a pet carrier with advance notice on WhatsApp. Pass along the child’s age and any pet details at reservation so the right vehicle and seat are ready.
Lock a flat rate and reserve a private, one-way transfer from the Port of Miami to West Canaveral Groves. Send the ship name, the disembarkation date, the group size, and the drop-off address, and the vehicle, driver, and pickup timing come back confirmed — with the full driver details the day before travel. Message on WhatsApp at 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.
