Our private hourly chauffeur takes your group from PortMiami to R&B Only Live at The Fillmore Miami Beach on Saturday, December 19, 2026, in a Black SUV XL at a flat rate from $100 per hour, with a 5-hour minimum. The show starts at 8:00 PM. Your bilingual driver picks you up anywhere in PortMiami and drives everyone home after the last song.
Each vehicle has its own hourly rate, and every booking runs for at least five hours.
Five hours is the starting block. A full show night with dinner first often runs longer, and the booking section further down explains how extra time works.
The hourly price is per vehicle, never per seat. The rate for a vehicle stays the same whether two friends ride or the cabin is full, so a bigger group just splits one price. That makes the larger Sprinter a good value for birthday groups and bachelorette parties going to the show.
A private chauffeur gives your group one car, one driver, and one fixed price.
The vehicle is reserved for your group alone. Nobody else gets in between stops, and the driver works for you all evening. Your chauffeur speaks English and Spanish, which helps families who mix languages and friends visiting from abroad feel at ease from the start. The flat hourly rate is locked when you book. A packed Saturday night in South Beach never pushes the price up, and traffic or weather never changes it. The same driver stays with you for the whole block and waits through the show, so nobody has to fight for a ride at the curb after the encore with a dying phone. If plans change or questions come up, you reach us directly on WhatsApp instead of a call center. That is the premium service an R&B night deserves: you dress up, sing every word, and step into a clean, cool car that is already yours when the lights come up.
Four private vehicle tiers cover everyone from a couple to a group of fourteen.
Choose by headcount first, then by mood. Two couples who want a quiet talk on the causeway often prefer the Platinum class. A group that plans to sing all the way over usually loves the extra room in a Sprinter. Every tier is private and comes with your chauffeur. None of them is ever self-drive.
Most of these groups choose a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. The whole party rides together, sings together, and arrives together, instead of splitting across two cars and losing each other in the crowd outside. Smaller birthday groups often pick the Platinum SUV for a more polished arrival and photos at the curb.
Fuel, tolls, and parking are all included in the hourly rate.
That matters on this route. The trip from the port crosses the bay into Miami Beach, and the car has to park somewhere while the show runs, but none of that ends up on your bill. Onboard WiFi from a mobile hotspot keeps everyone online for outfit photos or pulling up digital tickets in the back seat. If someone needs a restroom, a snack, or a minute to stretch, one short comfort stop during the booking is easy to arrange. Just ask the driver, and the rate stays the same. The only extra charge that may apply is the after-hours surcharge for trips outside daytime hours. That is relevant for a show starting at 8:00 PM, and the surcharge section below explains exactly how it works. Beyond that, the hourly figure in the list above is the price, so your group knows the cost of the night before the first pickup.
Yes. We drive groups from PortMiami to R&B Only Live on December 19, 2026.
R&B Only Live is a DJ-led R&B party from COLORS Worldwide. The music runs from the classics to current favorites, and the whole room sings and dances along. The Miami show starts at 8:00 PM on a Saturday at The Fillmore Miami Beach, the historic theater on Washington Avenue once known as the Jackie Gleason Theater. The party has played this room before, so it is returning to a stage that suits it. The show is adults-only, so bring a valid photo ID. The crowd is mostly people who grew up on classic R&B: girls’ nights out, birthday groups, bachelorette parties, couples on a date, and coworkers celebrating the end of the year. All of these groups want the same things. They want to arrive together, dressed up and on time, and to leave together without anyone having to drive. A private SUV or Sprinter booked by the hour does exactly that, starting at the port.
Pickup is at your cruise terminal’s passenger curb or any address in PortMiami.
PortMiami is an island of cruise terminals linked to Downtown by Port Boulevard and the PortMiami Tunnel. Most riders starting here meet their driver at the passenger pickup curb outside their terminal. Ships, buses, and taxis all share those roads, so agreeing on an exact meeting point ahead of time saves everyone a lap around the port. If you’re staying in a hotel just across the bridge in Downtown or near Bayside, the driver can meet you in the lobby instead. Either way, the pickup point is set when you book, and you and the driver coordinate any last details on WhatsApp so the group can walk straight to the car. From that moment the vehicle is yours. You can head to a pre-show dinner, stop back at the hotel for a quick outfit change, or go directly toward the beach.
Your chauffeur typically takes the PortMiami Tunnel and MacArthur Causeway into South Beach.
The tunnel runs under the shipping channel from the port to Watson Island. From there, the MacArthur Causeway crosses Biscayne Bay into Miami Beach, and the driver heads north through South Beach toward Washington Avenue and the theater near Lincoln Road. On a quiet evening it’s a short, scenic ride with the Downtown skyline behind you. A Saturday night in mid-December is different: holiday visitors, cruise traffic, and dinner crowds fill the same streets, so the driver builds in extra time. If the causeway backs up, the driver can change the route. One person handles the drop-off, the wait, and the ride home, which turns the hardest part of a South Beach night, getting in and out, into the easiest. You spend the drive guessing which song the DJ will play first.
Plan to leave PortMiami well before the 8:00 PM start, and allow extra time for Saturday traffic on the causeway and around Washington Avenue. Groups who want to settle in, find their seats or a spot in the pit, and get a drink before the DJ starts usually ask for an earlier pickup. Your driver will suggest a time when you book.
The driver lets you out as close to the venue as access allows, usually at a curbside drop-off point near the entrance. The exact spot depends on that night’s street closures and traffic, so before you walk in, the driver confirms on WhatsApp where to meet afterward.
Yes. Waiting is the whole point of booking by the hour. Your chauffeur parks nearby while the DJ plays, stays reachable on WhatsApp, and pulls up at the agreed pickup point when you message that you’re heading out. You can leave a jacket or a shopping bag in the car, because it’s your vehicle all night.
Bayside Marketplace and Brickell are just across the bridge from PortMiami for a pre-show dinner.
Bayside Marketplace, on the water at Biscayne Bay, is the classic first stop for cruise guests. It has waterfront restaurants, open bay views, and the Downtown skyline lighting up as evening falls. Brickell is a short hop south and has rooftop bars and stylish dinner spots that suit a group dressed up for a large night. Mary Brickell Village is an easy place to gather before the drive to the beach. If you’d rather eat on the Miami Beach side, the driver can continue to South Beach so you can pick a restaurant around Lincoln Road, which keeps the last leg to the theater very short. Little Havana works for anyone who wants Cuban food and a strong coffee before a long night of singing. These are just ideas: you make the reservations, and the driver handles every ride between them, so nobody has to think about parking or keep checking the time.
Yes, one booking covers both. The driver drops you at your restaurant, waits while you eat, then takes everyone to the show and home again, all within the same block of hours. Send the restaurant name and your reservation time on WhatsApp so the pickup schedule fits around it.
Yes. Trips outside the daytime window carry a fixed surcharge. 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.
For an SUV, the charge applies once per trip, not once per hour, so a long evening doesn’t keep adding to it. For a Sprinter, it’s a percentage of the trip value, so it scales with the size of the booking. We list the surcharge when we confirm your booking on WhatsApp, so the full cost of the night is clear before you pay. Nothing else changes after dark: the vehicle, the driver, and the inclusions are exactly the same as on a daytime booking.
You choose the vehicle, reserve your hours, and the car stays yours throughout.
Choose the tier that fits your headcount, then reserve a block of at least five hours. For a show night, that usually means starting in the late afternoon or early evening. The driver picks up at any Miami address: a hotel, a PortMiami cruise terminal, Miami International Airport, or a home. If you arrive on a cruise that day, you can go straight to the event. The exact pickup spot is agreed at booking. After that, the plan is yours. You can add a cocktail stop in Brickell, skip dinner and head straight over, or stay longer over dessert, and the chauffeur stays with you for the whole block. If the night runs past the five-hour block, there’s nothing to renegotiate. Every extra hour is simply added at the same flat per-hour rate for your vehicle and settled after the day, so you can keep the car as long as you need.
You pay the full fare when you reserve.
Our hourly service stays local, covering Miami and nearby areas up toward Fort Lauderdale.
That covers Miami and Miami Beach, Downtown Miami and Brickell, Coral Gables, Doral, Coconut Grove, Key Biscayne, Wynwood, Little Havana, and the area around Miami International Airport. It also covers the nearby communities heading north toward Fort Lauderdale. Staying close to the city is what lets a driver remain on call for your group without rushing, ready to loop back to dinner or swing by your hotel between plans. The hourly service doesn’t run out to farther destinations such as Naples, Orlando, or West Palm Beach, which keeps it focused on Miami nights. For R&B Only Live, every stop on a typical plan falls well inside the local area: the port, Bayside, Brickell, South Beach, the theater, and the ride home.
Yes. Hallandale Beach is within the nearby area we cover on the way up toward Fort Lauderdale. If your group wants a separate hourly day that weekend for a local market, a beach afternoon, or dinner by the water, book it the same way and keep one car and driver between stops.
Yes. A private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter does that job, reserved for your group alone.
Many riders search for a private shuttle from the cruise port to Miami Beach. They often picture a set loop on a timetable with other passengers aboard. Our service works differently. The Sprinter comes to your pickup point at the time you choose, carries only your party, and leaves when you’re ready. The same chauffeur handles every leg of the night, so the person who dropped you off is the one who drives you home. Smaller groups get the same private experience in the Black SUV XL or the Platinum SUV, in a smaller cabin. With any tier, you never wait for strangers to board, never share a seat row with another party, and never sit through a stop added for someone else. The whole cabin, the music, and the schedule belong to your group from the first pickup to the last drop-off.
Yes. You set the stops, so a quick photo break is easy to fit in. Groups dressed for the night often ask to stop briefly at the pastel Art Deco facades on Ocean Drive or by the water at Bayside. Tell the driver where you’d like to stop, and the car waits while you get the shot.
Pets are not accepted; certified service animals are welcome with advance notice.
Yes, and the slot is all yours. For a service within the next 24 hours, the date and time are locked in and held just for you, with a driver and vehicle already set aside. At that short notice we can’t guarantee a date change or a refund, so the booking goes ahead as agreed. You can always add more hours on the day.
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, timing, and the stops you want.
Tell us how many people are riding, roughly when you want to leave PortMiami, whether dinner comes first, and which vehicle you’d like. We confirm the plan and the total, then send the payment link. Saturdays in the holiday season are sought-after nights for private cars in South Beach, so booking early gives you the most choice of vehicle and pickup time. Once the fare is paid, the evening is set: your driver knows the plan, you know the price, and the only decision left is what to wear. A real person answers every question in the same chat, whether it’s about the drop-off, the timing, or the after-hours surcharge. Message or call using the details below to check availability and confirm your booking for R&B Only Live.

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