From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Holiday Inn Orlando International Dr-Icon by IHG in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way journey, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. The curbside greeting at the terminal is included; the Meet & Greet at the terminal, your driver holding a name sign, is available for $40. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
The Holiday Inn Orlando International Dr-Icon by IHG is a full-service hotel set along Orlando’s International Drive, the city’s main visitor corridor. As part of the IHG family, it carries the dependable, familiar Holiday Inn typical, so you know the kind of comfortable, well-run stay waiting for you when a long journey day finally ends. It makes a practical landing spot for anyone arriving in Orlando after a cruise, with everything geared toward guests who desire to be close to the action without the fuss of a downtown parking hunt.
Its Orlando address keeps you within reach of the metro’s more grown-up side. Downtown Orlando and neighboring Winter Park round out the visitor scene with lakeside parks, museums, and a boutique-lined main street. Once you have settled in, guests here often fold in Lake Eola Park and the Kia Center, while Park Avenue in Winter Park and the Charles Hosmer Morse Museum sit within simple reach for a slower, culture-minded afternoon. It is the kind of location that lets you shape the days around what you actually feel like doing.
When your ride pulls in, the arrival is simple. Your driver meets you at the main entrance, luggage is carried to the curb beside you, and there is no wandering a parking structure with bags in tow. After the miles from the coast, walking straight from the vehicle into the lobby is exactly the simple handoff you desire, leaving you free to check in and start your Orlando stay on your own terms.
This is a door-to-door run in a vehicle reserved for your group alone. After you disembark at the Port of Miami, your chauffeur coordinates the pickup around your ship’s actual arrival and meets you curbside at your terminal, not off in a parking lot. Bags go straight into the vehicle with full luggage assistance, and the flat fare you locked at booking already covers gas and typical tolls, so there is nothing to sort out on cruise morning. From there it is a straight shot north to the Holiday Inn Orlando International Dr-Icon by IHG.
