From $200 per vehicle — a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Gulf Stream at a flat rate, with a curbside cruise-terminal meet.
Every figure here is the full charge for the vehicle rather than a per-seat price, and it holds from the moment you reserve — neither traffic nor demand nudges it.
Your driver waits at the curb outside the PortMiami cruise hall as your group comes out with the bags, and the meet-and-greet is part of the fare. PortMiami sits on an island reached through a handful of controlled gates, so cars circulate along the terminal roadway instead of parking beside it — a swift message when you start walking out brings your vehicle around at the right moment. Ask ahead for a held name sign and the driver stands with it where you clear the building, a small $40 addition. From there it is straight to your Gulf Stream doorstep, with assist loading and unloading at both ends.
Gulf Stream is a small, quiet town on Florida’s Atlantic shore, up in Palm Beach County — residential, tidy, and upscale in a low-key way rather than a nightlife spot. People come here for ocean air, golf, and a slower pace, with boutique shops and waterfront dining scattered through the surrounding stretch of coast. Whatever brings you to Gulf Stream, the drive to or away from Port of Miami stays a single door-to-door private run, ending at any address you offer.
The shape of the journey is easy to picture. Departures inside the 7 AM to 9 PM daytime window usually move at a steady clip. A hectic disembark morning, with several ships emptying at once, thickens the terminal roads and stretches the crawl before the highway opens up; later runs out of the port tend to thin as the day settles. Whatever the road does, the fare does not budge — the flat rate is set at booking, so congestion adds nothing. Your driver follows the ship’s docking and re-times the pickup, collecting you when you genuinely clear customs.
Payment goes through the secure checkout on the site (card or Apple Pay) or a Stripe payment link we send by WhatsApp. The full fare, paid at booking, reserves your date. It all rides on one per-vehicle rate, with no per-person math.

We cruised as a group and wanted all of us and the bags in one private ride to Gulf Stream after disembarking.
My wife and I walked off the ship at PortMiami and had a private car ready at the curb to take us to Gulf Stream. It was only us in the car — nobody else to wait on — which was exactly what we wanted. The fare was set up front, nothing added at the curb.
First time cruising on my own out of PortMiami, and having a private car ready at the curb for the trip to Gulf Stream could not have been smoother.
Viajando con los niños, reservamos una van privada para que estuviera en la acera y llevara a todos a Gulf Stream. El van estaba impecable, un alivio con el calor de Miami. Sinceramente la parte más fácil del viaje — todo se acomodó solo en la terminal. Muy recomendable.
The two of us cruised from PortMiami and getting a private car waiting curbside for the ride to Gulf Stream took all the stress out of it.
