Our private hourly chauffeur takes your group from PortMiami to Miami Heat vs. Portland Trail Blazers at Kaseya Center on Tuesday, January 19, 2027, in a Black SUV XL at a flat rate from $100 per hour, with a 5-hour minimum. Tip-off is 7:30 PM. Your rate is locked when you book, with no surge, and the same car and bilingual driver stay with your group all evening.
Your rate depends on the vehicle, and every booking covers at least five hours.
Select the tier based on how many people are coming and the kind of night you want. You pay for time with a dedicated car, not for miles. The rate is the same whether you go straight from the cruise terminal to the arena or have dinner in Brickell first. The Black SUV XL is the everyday choice. The two Sprinter sizes let bigger groups ride together. The Platinum SUV is the luxury class for guests who want extra polish on a big night. Every tier comes with its own chauffeur, and your vehicle’s rate applies to each hour you keep it. Evening hours may add a separate surcharge, which has its own section further down the page. Arrive on the port side of Downtown, relax with your group, and let the numbers above be the whole story for the evening.
Fuel, tolls, and parking are all included in the hourly rate.
This matters in Downtown Miami on game night. Garages near the arena fill up early, and event parking is frequently the first thing visiting fans worry about. Your chauffeur covers all of those costs, so the only figure you need to think about is the hourly rate for your vehicle. The rate also pays for the chauffeur’s time for the whole block, whether the car is moving or parked while your group eats, browses the shops at Bayside, or watches the game. If anyone needs a restroom, a snack, or a stretch, just ask the driver for a quick comfort stop. It doesn’t change the rate. Two things can add to the total. Any hours you add past the booked block are billed as described in the next section.
You reserve one vehicle and one chauffeur for a block of hours, then set the plan.
Start by choosing the vehicle that fits your group. Then send us your start time and the stops you have in mind. The driver can pick up at any Miami address: a hotel, a PortMiami cruise terminal, Miami International Airport, or a home. We agree on the exact pickup spot when you book, so if your cruise docks that day, you can head straight into the evening. After that, you decide the order of the night. You might have dinner first, stop at your hotel to change, go to the arena, and then head wherever the group wants afterward. The first five hours make up the booked block. If the game goes to overtime or your plans after the game run late, just keep the car. Every extra hour is added at the same flat per-hour rate for your vehicle, with no new fare to negotiate. Extra hours are settled once the day is over, so nobody has to stop and pay mid-evening.
You pay the full fare up front, and any extra hours are settled after the game.
If you book service for within the next 24 hours, your time slot is locked in and held just for you. A driver and vehicle are already set aside, so at that short notice we can’t guarantee a date change or a refund, and the booking goes ahead as agreed. You can still add more hours on the day at the same rate.
Yes. A private chauffeur by the hour covers your whole game night from PortMiami.
Miami Heat vs. Portland Trail Blazers tips off at 7:30 PM on Tuesday, January 19, 2027, at Kaseya Center, the Heat’s home arena on Biscayne Bay in Downtown Miami. It is a regular-season game against a Western Conference team, and in Miami that still means a full, loud arena and a Downtown that gets busy well before tip-off. The crowd reflects the city: families with kids in jerseys, couples on a weeknight date, young professionals coming from Brickell offices, and longtime fans cheering in both English and Spanish. For guests starting at the port, a reserved car takes the guesswork out of a weeknight Downtown, whether you stepped off a ship that morning or are staying neighboring before a sailing. Your group rides together in one private vehicle and walks in relaxed. Nobody has to spend the fourth quarter worrying about getting home.
A Heat home game is one of Miami’s big weeknight outings. The crowd dresses up, the courtside seats are full of energy, and music keeps the building going through every timeout. Many fans make a whole evening of it, with dinner by the water first and a nightcap in Brickell afterward. That is exactly the kind of night an hourly car is built for.
Your chauffeur meets you at any address in PortMiami that we agree on at booking.
If your cruise ends that day, pickup is usually at the passenger curb outside your cruise terminal. A WhatsApp message confirms the exact meeting spot before you walk out. PortMiami has several terminals for different cruise lines, so tell us your ship and terminal when you book. The chauffeur will then plan the approach along Port Boulevard around terminal traffic. If you are staying at a Downtown hotel or residence close to the port, the driver can pick you up from the lobby or front door instead. Because the booking is hourly, the start of the day is flexible. A hotel check-in, a slow lunch, or a walk along the bayfront can all come before the arena without any rush. If your ship docks early and the group wants a quiet afternoon first, just start the block later so the hours line up with dinner and tip-off. That keeps the whole evening covered by your car.
Your chauffeur takes the Port Boulevard bridge straight onto Biscayne Boulevard beside the arena.
The arena sits just across the water from the cruise terminals, so the drive is typically short, but game night slows things down. Biscayne Boulevard fills with arriving fans and garage lines well before 7:30 PM, so allow extra time and plan to leave earlier than a map would suggest. Your chauffeur knows the Downtown street grid and can use side streets or come in from another direction if the boulevard backs up. After the game, your group walks to a pickup point agreed in advance, away from the thickest part of the crowd. A WhatsApp message tells you exactly where the car is. Traffic stays heavy for a while after the final buzzer, and because your car is already waiting neighboring, getting back to it is just a short walk. The same approach works whether you are returning to the port area, a Downtown hotel, or a home across the bay.
Leave with a comfortable buffer before the 7:30 PM tip-off instead of timing it to the minute. The drive from the port is typically short, but Downtown streets slow down as the arena fills and security lines set their own pace. Many groups have dinner close to the arena and walk in from there, which takes the timing pressure off entirely.
The driver drops your group as close to the venue as access allows, usually on Biscayne Boulevard or a nearby side street. The exact spot depends on the traffic controls in place that night. You’ll step out near the entrance, and before you head inside, the chauffeur confirms where to meet after the game.
Yes. Waiting is the whole point of booking by the hour. After the drop-off, the chauffeur parks and stays with the vehicle through all four quarters, watching WhatsApp in case you need anything. If the game goes to overtime or you stay for a drink afterward, the car stays with you and your plans for the rest of the night stay open.
Bayside Marketplace, right next to the arena, is the easiest pre-game stop from the port.
Its waterfront restaurants and bars look out over the marina, and the arena is a short walk away. The chauffeur can drop your group for dinner, and you can walk over whenever you’re ready. If you want a sit-down meal with more going on, Brickell is a good choice. Brickell City Centre and the streets around Mary Brickell Village are full of restaurants and rooftop lounges on a weeknight. For a taste of the city’s Cuban roots, Versailles Restaurant in Little Havana is a well-known spot for Cuban coffee, pastries, and a full dinner. Wynwood suits a younger group that wants murals, a brewery, and a lively table before the game. With a car by the hour, any of these works. The driver waits outside and then takes everyone on to the arena in the same car. You make your own restaurant reservations, and the chauffeur handles the driving, so the group can savor the meal and forget about the clock.
Plan the booking around three parts of the night: dinner, the game, and afterward.
If you start from PortMiami in the late afternoon, the group has time to settle in, eat without watching the clock, and still walk into the arena before tip-off. An NBA game runs well past its start time once you count halftime, timeouts, and possible overtime, so leave room at the end of your booking instead of cutting it close. After the final buzzer, many groups want one more stop: a nightcap in Brickell, dessert in Coconut Grove, or a drive along the bay before heading back to a hotel or home. The five-hour block is a starting point, not a limit. If the night runs longer, the car stays. If your plans are simple, the booked hours cover them. A quick message to the driver is all it takes to keep going, and the chauffeur can suggest a route that fits the time you have left. That way the evening ends on your schedule, not the clock’s.
The hourly service stays local, covering Miami and neighboring areas up toward Fort Lauderdale.
That includes PortMiami and Downtown Miami, plus Miami Beach, Brickell, Coral Gables, Doral, Coconut Grove, Key Biscayne, Wynwood, Little Havana, and the area around Miami International Airport. Staying close to the city lets your chauffeur stay on call and unhurried for your whole evening, instead of spending your booked hours on a highway. For a Heat game from the port, that means a pre-game stop in South Beach, a detour through Wynwood, or a late dessert in Coral Gables all fit easily into the same booking. The same car can go from the cruise terminal to a Brickell rooftop to the arena and back to a Miami Beach hotel without the evening ever feeling rushed. Longer trips to places like Naples, Orlando, or West Palm Beach aren’t part of this hourly service. It is built for days and nights spent around Miami, with the city’s best-known neighborhoods close by.
A private chauffeur gives your group a better experience than driving and parking yourselves.
The vehicle is reserved for your group alone, so the ride from PortMiami feels like part of the evening instead of a chore. Your chauffeur is bilingual, speaking English and Spanish, which fits a city where both English and Spanish fill the arena. Your flat hourly rate is locked the moment you book. It doesn’t surge on a busy game night, and it doesn’t change for traffic or weather. The same driver stays with you for the whole block, so you never have to repeat directions to someone new. You can reach your chauffeur directly on WhatsApp before and during the booking, whether you’re changing the dinner spot or leaving the arena late. For a birthday, an anniversary, or a once-in-a-lifetime first Heat game, this kind of premium service is what makes the night feel looked after from the first pickup to the last drop-off.
Daytime bookings between 7:00 AM and 6:00 PM carry no surcharge, while trips outside those hours carry a surcharge that depends on the 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.
Nothing else about the night changes: you still select the stops, and the chauffeur stays with your group. When you confirm, we go through your planned hours with you so you know the full total for game night before you set off.
Four private vehicle tiers cover everything from a couple to a group of fourteen.
If your group is right at the limit of a tier, a larger vehicle keeps everyone comfortable through a long evening of dinner, the game, and the ride back. If you’re bringing something bulky for the game, such as oversized signs, tell us in advance so we can assign the right vehicle. Every tier is a private vehicle with our chauffeur driving. None of them is ever self-drive.
Yes. You can book a private driver from PortMiami to the arena by the hour on WhatsApp.
Booking works the same way for a couple on a date night, a family with young fans, or friends celebrating a birthday. Only the vehicle tier changes. Your chauffeur is a dedicated driver for your group, not a car sent at random. The plan can be as simple as the port to the arena and back, or as full as dinner, the game, and a nightcap. If your cruise lines up with the Heat schedule, a first game can be a once-in-a-lifetime memory, and with the ride already arranged, the group can focus on the court. The short answers below cover practical questions that frequently come up before booking a game-night car, from tickets and pets to vans for bigger groups. Each answer gives you the real information right here, so you can decide on the spot and move straight to confirming your date.
No. We provide the private car and chauffeur only. You buy game tickets separately through the arena’s official ticketing. Choose any seats you like, from the upper level to courtside, and the driver will get your group to the building and back. Your tickets and seats are entirely your choice, and the transportation side is ours.
Yes. The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is a private van that comes with its own chauffeur and is reserved for your group alone. One pickup at the port gets everyone on board, nobody has to split between two cars, and the same van takes everyone home after the game. Choose the size that fits your group from the vehicle tiers above.
Pets are not accepted; certified service animals are welcome with advance notice.
Yes. The same private car and chauffeur by the hour is available for any Heat home game on the schedule, not just this one. Booking works the same way: choose your vehicle, set a pickup at the port or anywhere around the city, and keep the car all night. Send the date and your group size to check availability.
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.

Message us on WhatsApp with your group size, pickup spot, and plans for the night.
Tell us how many people are riding and whether you’re coming off a ship or leaving from a hotel or residence near the port. Include a rough start time and any stops you’d like to make, such as dinner at Bayside, a drink in Brickell, or a late bite in Little Havana. We confirm the vehicle and send the payment details. Your date is secured as soon as your payment arrives. Tuesday, January 19, 2027, will be a busy night Downtown, so getting in touch early gives you the widest choice of vehicles. If your plans are still taking shape, send what you know now and fill in the rest closer to the game. From there, your chauffeur handles the driving and you handle the cheering.

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