From $600 per vehicle — one flat, private one-way ride from MIA to Alafaya, met at the arrivals curb by your driver.
Each figure below is the cost of the whole vehicle to any Alafaya address, not a per-seat charge, and it is fixed the moment you reserve — traffic never moves it.
Your driver waits at the MIA arrivals curb as you step out with your bags, and that curbside meet and greet is part of the ride at no charge. The night before, a text gives you the driver’s name, the vehicle, and the plate, so there is no hunting at the terminal. The inbound flight is tracked live, which means an early landing or a long delay merely shifts the pickup — no extra fee and no rebooking. Included waiting covers a full two hours after an international landing and one hour after a domestic one, enough to soak up an ordinary customs line. If you would rather be met inside the terminal with a name sign held for you, that greeting is a $40 add-on.
Alafaya is a residential slice of the Orlando metro’s east side, strung along the long commercial run of Alafaya Trail. The feel is plain suburban Central Florida — quiet streets, manufactured-home neighborhoods such as Alafaya Palms, and steady rows of strip retail and daily shops. It sits inside the greater University of Central Florida district — UCF student housing, casual eateries, and campus-side businesses shape a good deal of the character here. The busiest place to eat sits along North Alafaya Trail. Most trips here are practical ones — seeing family, a university errand, or using the region as a quiet base for the greater Orlando region rather than a run to the beach.
The journey spans 228.8 miles, or 368.1 km, and runs near 229 minutes in light traffic, stretching toward 237 at busier hours — a swing of only about eight minutes. From MIA the drive climbs north, riding Florida’s Turnpike and then I-95 — the quickest corridor linking South Florida with the Orlando region. The open turnpike miles in the middle commonly flow freely; the traffic that matters gathers near the airport and again through the Orlando metro at the far end. A daytime departure tends to land you closer to the shorter estimate. Because the pickup follows your real arrival, the clock starts when you actually touch down, not at a fixed hour.

Me encantó: la camioneta lucía nueva y bien mantenida, nos ayudó con las cuatro maletas grandes, trayecto tranquilo y sin vueltas.
We came as a group and wanted everyone and the luggage in one ride from the airport to Alafaya. Honestly the easiest part of our whole trip — getting in was completely stress-free. The SUV was spotless, a nice relief in the Miami heat. Can’t recommend it enough.
On time, professional, and we were at the door in Alafaya before we knew it. The driver got us right to the quiet street, which isn’t always easy in a residential area.
Traveling with the kids, I did NOT want to wrangle a taxi at MIA, so I booked a private van out to Alafaya. Our flight was delayed and the driver was still there waiting — not a worry at all. The kids were wiped out after the flight, and getting straight to Alafaya without a taxi hassle was a relief. Highly recommend.
First time flying into Miami by myself to stay in Alafaya, and having someone there at arrivals took all the stress out of it.
