From $240 per vehicle: a private one-way ride between Port of Miami and Lake Belvedere Estates, door to door.
Each fare below is for the whole vehicle, not per head, and covers the one-way run between the cruise terminal and your Lake Belvedere Estates address.
Once your ship clears and you walk off with your bags, the driver is already positioned at the curb outside the Port of Miami cruise terminal. Ship arrival is tracked live, so a late berth or a slow customs hall simply shifts the pickup — the reserved vehicle holds, at no added charge, with 30 minutes of courtesy waiting built in. A curbside meet and greet comes standard; if you would rather be found by a printed name sign, add one for $40 when you book. The driver loads every cruise bag before the door-to-door drive north begins.
Lake Belvedere Estates is a quiet residential pocket of Palm Beach County, its name drawn from the little lakes and green spaces threaded between the streets. This is an everyday, family-oriented neighborhood rather than a resort strip — tidy homes, calm roads, and shops and dining close at hand. Numerous arriving cruise travelers are headed to relatives, a rental, or a home base for exploring the wider Palm Beach County region, with its parks and waterways a short drive away. You can look up Palm Beach County’s public parks before you travel.
From the Port of Miami the route runs by highway up out of the Miami region and north toward Palm Beach County, and the driver sets the departure around your actual disembark time rather than a fixed clock. When the roads are open the trip moves along without fuss; during weekday rush or whenever several ships empty together, traffic near the terminal and along the corridor can add time, so the driver leaves a margin and watches conditions on the way. Because the price is locked per vehicle at booking, a slower run never changes what the ride to Lake Belvedere Estates costs.
Pickups between 7 AM and 9 PM carry no surcharge. Night surcharge: on rides priced up to $400, pickups between 9 PM and 7 AM add $20 for the SUV; on rides priced above $400 the night window starts at 6 PM and adds $50. Vans add 10% of their fare. Tell the driver your disembark time when you book and the pickup is planned to fit it.

The driver follows your ship’s real-time arrival and is in position at the curb as you clear the terminal, so there is no scramble for a ride after the sailing. Reserve at least 24 hours ahead with your ship name and terminal, and the driver’s details reach by text the day before.
