A private hourly chauffeur takes your group from PortMiami to Marcello Hernández at Hard Rock Live on December 26, 2026, in a Black SUV XL on a 5-hour minimum at a flat rate from $100 per hour. One bilingual driver collects you at your cruise terminal or any address around PortMiami, waits through the 8:00 PM show, and drives you home afterward.
Each vehicle is priced per hour by group size, with a minimum booking of five hours.
The price you pick from this list is the price for your whole party, not per seat, and it covers the vehicle and its chauffeur for every hour you hold them. A show night out of PortMiami usually fills its block naturally: the pickup at the port, the drive north to Hollywood, the performance itself, and the ride back to the city afterward. Couples and small groups tend to choose the SUV, while a family reunion or a group of friends coming off a ship together usually books a Sprinter so everyone rides in one vehicle. Choose by headcount first, then decide whether the Platinum tier suits the occasion. Your rate is confirmed over WhatsApp when you reserve.
You reserve one vehicle and one driver for a block of hours, starting at five.
Start by matching the vehicle to your headcount, then send us your pickup point and a rough start time. Pickup is agreed at booking and can be any Miami address: a PortMiami cruise terminal, a hotel lobby, Miami International Airport, or a home. From that moment the car is yours. You set the stops and the pace, whether that means dinner by the bay first or a direct run north, and the itinerary is never fixed in stone, so adding a stop or lingering somewhere is fine. Once the 5-hour block is used, every additional hour is simply added at the same flat per-hour rate. Nobody renegotiates a fare, and those added hours are settled after the night wraps up, with the driver or over WhatsApp. Keep the car as long as the evening needs.
Four private tiers cover every group size, starting with the SUV.
Every tier is private to your party and comes with its own chauffeur, so nobody outside your group ever rides along. For a comedy night, the practical question is whether everyone can leave the port together and walk into the theater together. If your headcount sits on the edge between two tiers, size up: the drive north is more comfortable with a spare seat, and a holiday outing tends to gain a cousin or two at the last minute.
Fuel, tolls, and parking are all covered by the hourly rate.
That matters on a night like this one, because casino-resort parking and highway tolls never land on you as a separate bill. The rate also covers the vehicle itself, the chauffeur for the entire block, and onboard WiFi through a mobile hotspot, handy for pulling up tickets on the way north. One brief comfort stop for a restroom, a snack, or a stretch is easy to arrange; just ask the driver, and the rate stays the same. Two things can sit on top of the hourly rate: the night surcharge for travel outside daytime hours, listed in full below, and any hours you choose to add beyond your reserved block. There is room for merch or a gift, and tell us in advance if you’re bringing something large.
A reserved vehicle and one bilingual chauffeur make the whole night a premium service.
The rate is flat and locked when you book, with no surge for holiday traffic, weather, or a busy cruise day at the port. Your vehicle is private to your group, never shared, and the same driver who meets you at the start is the one who brings you back. A bilingual chauffeur suits a crowd heading to see a comedian whose humor moves between English and Spanish. Direct WhatsApp contact means you message a real person about timing, a late addition to the group, or a change of dinner plans. Nobody in your party watches the clock, skips a toast, or circles a parking structure. That is simply a better experience: one plan, one car, and a driver who already knows where you are headed next.
Leave the port early, ride north, and keep the same driver all night.
Marcello Hernández takes the stage at 8:00 PM on December 26, 2026, and Hard Rock Live sits inside the Seminole Hard Rock resort in Hollywood. The date falls on the Saturday after Christmas, when families are in town, cruise ships are turning around at the port, and the casino floor, restaurants, and theater all draw a crowd at once. That mix is why a reserved car works well here: the resort roads fill up before a headline show, the parking structures back up when it lets out, and a visitor who has just stepped off a ship does not desire to learn that layout in the dark. Plan the evening in three parts, covered below: when to leave, where you step out, and how the ride home works.
Leave PortMiami with a generous cushion, well ahead of the 8:00 PM start. A holiday Saturday evening brings heavy traffic on the highway north and slow resort roads near the venue, and you still need time to walk in from the drop-off point, clear security, and find your seats. The driver sets the departure time with you.
The driver drops your group at the drop-off point nearest the entrance, as close to the venue as access allows on the night. Traffic flow around the resort can change on busy show nights, so the exact spot is whatever is open when you arrive. You step out together and walk in, with no parking structure to deal with.
Yes, the driver waits for the whole performance; that is the point of booking by the hour. Your chauffeur stays nearby with the vehicle while you are inside, and you message on WhatsApp as the show ends to agree on the meeting spot. The same car and the same driver take you back to PortMiami or wherever the night ends.
The route runs from the port to Interstate 95 and north into Broward County.
Leaving the cruise terminals, a chauffeur takes the Port Boulevard bridge or drops into the PortMiami Tunnel, which feeds straight onto the MacArthur Causeway and I-395 without touching downtown streets. From there the car joins I-95 northbound and stays on it past the Golden Glades interchange and across the county line. The exit comes at Stirling Road or Griffin Road, heading west to US-441, the corridor where the Seminole Hard Rock and its guitar-shaped hotel tower stand out against the skyline. Florida’s Turnpike is the usual alternate when I-95 is jammed, and a driver who runs this corridor regularly watches traffic and picks between them on the day. None of that is your problem to solve. You sit back with your group and let Miami slide past the window.
The drive typically takes well under an hour when the highway is moving. Allow noticeably more on the evening of December 26, when holiday traffic and showgoers arriving at the resort overlap on the road north. Booking by the hour takes the guesswork out: the driver builds the cushion into your departure.
The driver meets you at any address in PortMiami that you name at booking.
Cruise guests are met at the arrivals curb outside their terminal, where the chauffeur pulls into the passenger pickup lane. Send the ship’s name and your terminal when you reserve, and message on WhatsApp once you are walking off so the car is rolling toward you. Travelers staying beside the port are collected in the hotel lobby, which covers the bayfront towers along Biscayne Boulevard and the hotels of Downtown Miami and Brickell. Residents of the condo buildings facing the port are picked up at their own front door or valet circle. If part of your party is at the terminal and part is at a hotel, the driver can collect both on the way out, since you decide the stops. The meeting point and time are confirmed with you over WhatsApp.
Yes, a cruise-day arrival can go straight from the PortMiami terminal to the show. The driver meets you at the terminal curb as you come off the ship. Ships usually empty out in the morning, so either keep the car through the day by adding hours or start your block later from a hotel.
Bayside Marketplace sits right beside the port and is the easiest pre-show meeting spot.
The open-air waterfront complex faces the marina across from the cruise terminals, with casual restaurants and bars where a group can gather, order a round, and watch the boats before heading north. Guests who desire a longer dinner often go a little farther: the restaurant rows of Brickell for a polished sit-down meal, or Little Havana for Cuban cooking that suits a night built around a Miami-raised comedian. Either way the driver drops you at the door and has the car ready when the check is paid, so nobody hunts for parking downtown or keeps an eye on the time. The resort in Hollywood has its own restaurants too, which lets you ride up early and eat steps from the theater instead. These are ideas for your booked hours; reservations and tickets stay in your hands.
Yes, dinner and the show fit inside one hourly booking with the same car. A typical plan is pickup at the port, a meal near the bay or up at the resort, the performance, and the ride back. Tell us the restaurant when you book and the driver plans the timing around your reservation.
Marcello Hernández is a Miami-raised stand-up comedian and Saturday Night Live cast member.
His comedy draws on growing up in a Latino family in Miami, which is why a hometown date lands differently than a stop anywhere else on the road. The crowd tends to be local families, groups of friends, couples on a holiday date night, and visitors who built a Miami trip around the week after Christmas. This particular performance is billed as a Spanish-language show, so check your ticket listing if that matters to your group. The room is a theater-style concert hall inside a casino resort, which means the evening rarely starts and ends at the seat: people arrive early to eat, linger afterward on the casino floor, and leave in waves. That is exactly the kind of night a chauffeur held by the hour handles well, because your ride home is on your schedule rather than the crowd’s.
The venue is in Hollywood, FL, north of Miami in Broward County, on the grounds of the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. Listings often file it under Miami because it serves the whole metro area. For riders leaving PortMiami, that means a highway trip between two counties, which our hourly service covers.
Three details cover how the booking is paid.
Daytime hours run from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM and carry no surcharge. Travel outside that window adds the amount below, depending on your vehicle.
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. It is stated here in full so nothing appears later that you did not expect. The surcharge is separate from the hourly rate and from any hours you add: an SUV booking carries it once per trip, and a private van booking carries it as a share of the trip value.
Yes, a private chauffeured vehicle runs from PortMiami to the show and back.
The booking is a chauffeur and vehicle reserved for your party alone, so it answers several searches at once. Riders looking for a private van with a driver get a private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Those after a luxury car service for a special night get the Platinum SUV. Anyone who simply wants a driver for the evening gets exactly that, with the freedom to change plans along the way. Seats are never sold individually and no stranger is added to fill the vehicle. To check availability for December 26, send a WhatsApp message with your group size, your pickup point at the port, a rough start time, and any stops on your wish list. The questions below cover what riders ask most often before they confirm: late changes, pets, the area this hourly service covers, and other show nights.
A booking made for the next 24 hours has its date and time locked in and held just for you. A driver and vehicle are already set aside, so on that short notice we can’t guarantee moving the date or a refund, and the service simply runs as agreed. You can always add more hours on the day.
Pets are not accepted; certified service animals are welcome with advance notice. Sorting it out ahead of time means no surprises at the curb for you or the driver.
The hourly service stays local: Miami, Miami Beach, Downtown Miami, Brickell, Coral Gables, Doral, Coconut Grove, Key Biscayne, Wynwood, Little Havana, and around Miami International Airport, plus nearby areas up toward Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood included. It is an easygoing, on-call service around the city, so we don’t run it to far destinations such as Naples, Orlando, or West Palm Beach.
The same hourly booking works for any other comedy or concert night at this theater. Send the date, the start time, and your pickup point, and we set up the vehicle the same way: one chauffeur, your own stops, and a ride home whenever your group is ready to leave Hollywood.
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.

Reserving takes one WhatsApp message and full payment to hold your date.
Tell us how many people are riding, where in PortMiami the driver should meet you, roughly when you desire to start, and whether dinner or another stop belongs in the plan. We reply with the vehicle that fits and set your pickup. From there the night is straightforward: a clean premium vehicle arrives where you said, a chauffeur who knows the road to Hollywood greets your group, and the evening unfolds at your pace until everyone is back where they started. The Saturday after Christmas is a popular night to be out, so earlier messages give us more room to match the exact vehicle you desire. A hometown comedian on a hometown stage deserves your full attention, and the driving, the parking, and the timing can all belong to someone else.
