Our private hourly chauffeur takes your group from Coral Gables to Miami Marlins vs. Philadelphia Phillies at loanDepot park on Friday, July 30, 2027, in a Black SUV XL at a flat rate from $100 per hour with a 5-hour minimum. The same bilingual driver stays with your group all game day. They handle the crosstown drive, wait through the game, and bring everyone home. You skip the parking lines and don’t have to hunt for a ride after the last out.
Hourly rates depend on the vehicle your group needs, and every price covers the whole vehicle:
Every game-day booking runs for at least five hours. That’s enough time for the crosstown drive, a relaxed meal, a full ballgame, and the ride back to Coral Gables. Choose the tier by headcount first. Couples and small families usually take the Black SUV XL, and bigger groups of friends or coworkers move into a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. If you want a more polished arrival, pick the Platinum SUV. Each rate is for the vehicle, not per passenger, so a full car of Phillies or Marlins fans can split the cost into a modest share.
A dedicated chauffeur gives your group one private car, one driver, and a rate locked at booking.
That rate holds no matter how heavy the Friday traffic gets or how many fans leave at once. There is never a surge. The vehicle is reserved for your party alone, so the seats, the music, and the conversation are yours from the first pickup to the last drop-off. Your bilingual chauffeur speaks English and Spanish, which helps when relatives and friends who speak different languages ride together. You message that same driver directly on WhatsApp, so you never go through a dispatcher or wonder where the car is parked. Because you book by the hour, the driver stays on call for your whole block instead of leaving after the drop-off. Our riders notice that difference most: a calmer, better experience and a premium service built around your schedule, not a meter.
Daytime trips between 7:00 AM and 6:00 PM carry no surcharge. Outside that window, a small night surcharge applies based on the vehicle type:
The night fee depends only on the pickup time: for pickups between 6:00 PM and 7:00 AM the SUV adds $50 (vans +10% of the hourly total), once per booking. A group that stays out for a nightcap on Miracle Mile likely will not. The team has not posted a first-pitch time yet. Once the schedule is set and we know your stops, we’ll explain over WhatsApp whether the surcharge applies to your plan. Everything else stays the same after dark: same driver, same vehicle, same plan.
Fuel, tolls, and parking are built into the hourly rate on every booking.
Nobody in your group pays at a toll booth or a garage. That matters on game day, when every other fan is circling for a space near the stadium. The driver handles every curb, garage, and toll along the route, so your group just rides. If someone needs a quick restroom break, a snack, or a stretch during the booking, just ask. One short comfort stop fits easily and doesn’t change the rate. There is room for what fans actually bring, from rally signs and gloves to new team merch. Tell us in advance if you’re bringing something big. The only extras that may apply are the night surcharge above, for trips outside daytime hours, explained just below. Waiting time is part of the hours you book. It never shows up as a separate charge.
Four private tiers cover every group size, each with its own chauffeur for the whole booking.
If your headcount falls between two tiers, choose the larger one. The extra room makes the ride home after a long night of cheering much more comfortable. Not sure which fits? Send your group size on WhatsApp and we’ll match a vehicle to your party.
Booking by the hour reserves a vehicle and a chauffeur for a block of time, not one ride.
Start by choosing the tier that fits your group. Then send a rough start time and the stops you’d like, such as dinner, the ballpark, and maybe a nightcap afterward. Your booking covers at least five hours, and the same driver stays with you the whole time. You set the order of stops and the pace, and the chauffeur suggests the best route across town. Want the car longer? Keep it. Every additional hour after the first five is added at the same flat per-hour rate as the rest of the booking. The fare is never renegotiated, and you settle the extra hours after the day, either with the driver or over WhatsApp. That is the real advantage of hiring by the hour on game day: the evening follows your group’s plans, and the car stays yours until you decide the night is over.
The driver picks you up at any address in Coral Gables, such as the lobby of The Biltmore Hotel, a hotel near Miracle Mile, or your own front door. If your day starts somewhere else, the chauffeur can meet you at Miami International Airport or at a PortMiami cruise terminal, so a cruise-day arrival can go straight to the game. We agree on the exact pickup spot when you book.
Yes. The itinerary is never locked. You can add a stop, drop one, or stay longer at dinner, and the driver adjusts on the spot if the schedule allows. Nothing is renegotiated along the way. Plenty of groups decide during the late innings whether to head straight home or stop for dessert in the Gables.
Payment is simple: you pay the full fare when you book, and that reserves the date.
A private chauffeur is the easiest way to reach loanDepot park from Coral Gables.
The ballpark is a short crosstown drive east, in Little Havana, and the trip is easy on a quiet afternoon. On a Friday game evening, though, commuters leaving downtown and fans arriving from every direction crowd onto the same few streets. That’s when a chauffeur is most worth it. Your driver watches traffic as it builds, picks the clearer approach, and handles the last few blocks around the stadium while your group talks about the lineups and pitching matchups. Nobody circles for a parking space, argues over directions, or gets stuck being the designated driver. For Phillies fans visiting from up north, it also takes the guesswork out of an unfamiliar city. You walk out of a hotel lobby in the Gables and into a car whose driver already knows the neighborhood. The questions below cover the roads and the timing in more detail.
Your chauffeur typically heads east on SW 8th Street, the Tamiami Trail along the northern edge of Coral Gables, straight into Little Havana before turning north toward the stadium. If that road is backed up, the driver may go north on LeJeune Road to the Dolphin Expressway (SR 836) and approach from the expressway side instead. The driver picks the route based on live traffic.
It’s typically a short crosstown drive, but allow plenty of extra time on game day. Friday commuter traffic overlaps with fans heading to the game, so a trip that’s quick at midday can take noticeably longer close to first pitch. Your chauffeur will suggest a pickup time based on the posted start time and your dinner plans.
Leave Coral Gables early enough to get to your seats before first pitch.
The Marlins post the start time before game day, and we plan your pickup working back from it. We allow for Friday traffic, any dinner stop, and a few relaxed minutes to grab a cold drink before the anthem. Many groups like to arrive while the ballpark is still filling, when the concourses are easy to walk and the visiting Phillies fans are just starting their chants. Inside, a retractable roof and air conditioning keep out the summer heat, so arriving early is comfortable. For the latest ballpark information, see the team’s page for loanDepot park. Once your group is inside, the chauffeur stays close by for the rest of the booking, follows the game, and brings the car around as soon as you message on WhatsApp. No one has to leave early to beat the crowd home.
The driver drops your group as close to the venue as access allows, typically at a curbside drop-off point near the entrance you plan to use. Traffic control changes on event nights, so the chauffeur follows the posted traffic routes. Before you go in, the driver agrees with you on a matching pickup spot for after the game.
Yes. The driver waits for the whole game, however long it runs, so extra innings never leave the group stranded. If the last out comes after your booked hours, the extra time is simply added to the booking, and you settle it afterward. Walk out, message the driver, and the car will meet you at the agreed spot.
Miracle Mile is the go-to pre-game dinner spot for groups starting in Coral Gables.
Sit-down restaurants and lively patios line its walkable blocks. Your chauffeur drops everyone at the curb, waits while you eat, and pulls back up once the check is paid. Guests staying at The Biltmore Hotel often start with a drink on its grand grounds. Shoppers sometimes fit in a visit to The Shops at Merrick Park before heading out. Prefer to eat closer to the ballpark? Little Havana is right on the way. Versailles, the famous Cuban restaurant on SW 8th Street, is a favorite stop for strong coffee, pastries, and a hearty plate before the game. Because the car is yours by the hour, the driver takes you between these stops and waits at each one. The group never has to time a ride, split up across two cars, or walk the last stretch in the heat.
Yes, before the game, after it, or both. Name the restaurant when you book or decide on the day, and the driver will adjust the route and wait outside while you eat. A late meal after the last out works too.
Miami Marlins vs. Philadelphia Phillies is a National League East game that draws a lively mixed crowd.
South Florida is home to many Philadelphia and Northeast transplants, and plenty of fans travel down to follow their team. Expect red Phillies jerseys in every section alongside Marlins fans in their own colors. That mix gives the night a real rivalry feel, with loud cheers for big plays on both sides and good-natured back-and-forth along the concourses. The game opens a weekend series in Miami, which turns the matchup into a short road trip for many visiting fans. For a group, that energy is half the fun, and arriving together in one private car keeps everyone together from the first pickup. Visiting Phillies fans staying in Coral Gables also get a local chauffeur who knows the streets around the stadium and the quickest way back to the hotel at the end of the night.
Yes. Our private hourly chauffeur service covers this exact trip, and nothing about it is shared.
No one outside your party rides along, and there are no fixed departure times or individually sold seats. Whether you need a private van for a big group or an SUV for a few friends, the vehicle leaves Coral Gables when your group is ready and goes only where your group wants. That flexibility works well for families with young kids who need to come and go, friends celebrating a birthday at the ballpark, and colleagues hosting out-of-town clients who happen to root for Philadelphia. The same private setup works for a couple on a date night or a full Sprinter of coworkers. Coral Gables riders also ask about the service area, pets, last-minute bookings, and keeping the same driver for more than one game. The answers below cover each one.
The hourly service stays local and on call around the city: Miami, Miami Beach, Downtown Miami, Brickell, Coral Gables, Doral, Coconut Grove, Key Biscayne, Wynwood, Little Havana, the Miami International Airport area, and nearby areas up toward Fort Lauderdale. Staying close keeps the day unhurried, so we don’t run this hourly service out to far destinations like Naples, Orlando, or West Palm Beach.
Pets are not accepted; certified service animals are welcome with advance notice.
Your slot is locked in and held just for you. When a booking is within the next 24 hours, a driver and vehicle are already set aside for you, so the date and time run exactly as agreed. On such short notice, we can’t guarantee a date change or a refund. You can still add more hours on the day.
Often, yes. Each game day is a separate booking on the same terms, with the same vehicle tiers, hourly rates, and minimum. A visiting group can request the same chauffeur for more than one game, subject to availability. Send all your dates together on WhatsApp, and we’ll confirm each day in one conversation.
Reserving one premium service by the hour is a different thing from opening an app every time you move. You hold a single vehicle and a single bilingual chauffeur for the whole block, the price is fixed before you start, and the car simply waits while you eat, shop, or take photos — no re-requesting, no surge, no stranger learning where you are headed each time.
| By the hour with us | App rides (Uber / Lyft) |
|---|---|
| One flat hourly rate, locked before you start | A fresh fare every ride, surging 1.5×–4× at peak |
| The same vehicle and driver stay with you all day | A different car and a stranger at every pickup |
| Your driver waits between each stop — nothing to re-book | Re-request and wait at the curb after each stop |
| A vetted, professional bilingual chauffeur | Whoever happens to accept the ping |
Across a full day of stops, one reserved chauffeur usually lands below a string of Uber Black or Lyft Lux surges — and it stays a calmer, more premium service from the first pickup to the last drop-off.

To book, send one WhatsApp message with your group size, a rough departure time from Coral Gables, and the stops you’d like.
We’ll reply with the right vehicle, confirm the pickup spot, and send the payment link. Once we receive your payment, the date is yours, and a chauffeur and vehicle are reserved for your group alone. Friday games against Philadelphia tend to draw a big visiting crowd. Booking well ahead gives you the widest choice of vehicles, especially if you need a Sprinter or prefer the Platinum SUV. On July 30, all you have to do is walk out the door, find your driver at the curb, and enjoy a ballgame without worrying about the clock, the traffic, or parking. Message us to check availability and confirm your booking for Miami Marlins vs. Philadelphia Phillies.

If no offer is sent, the driver may leave once your free waiting time is over.
