From $640 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Orlando to Palmetto Bay in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The prices are flat and quoted per vehicle for the whole one-way ride: no meter, no surge, nothing added at the curb.
The driver comes to your hotel, resort, vacation home or address in the Orlando region at the agreed time, loads the bags and heads south with only your party on board. There is no counter, no shared van and no waiting for other passengers: the vehicle is yours from the door in Orlando to the destination in South Florida. A courtesy wait of 15 minutes is included at the pickup.
Palmetto Bay is a quiet, green residential village in southern Miami-Dade County, tucked into South Florida below the city and set between Biscayne Bay and the surrounding suburbs. It sits well away from the crowds and the theme-park pace you leave behind in Central Florida, and the mood shifts the moment you turn onto its streets. This is a place built around calm rather than commotion, and that character defines what you locate when your driver pulls up to the door.
What stands out first is how leafy and unhurried everything feels. Shaded streets, waterfront parks, and an easygoing rhythm give the village a settled, low-key feel that suits travelers who want a soft landing after a long day out. The coastal edge of Biscayne Bay is close by, along with marinas that anchor Palmetto Bay to the water, so the sense of being near the sea is never far from any corner of town.
For families coming home from Orlando, that combination is the appeal. You reach a peaceful, residential place to unwind, close to green space and the bay yet still within the wider reach of the Miami region to the north. Because the drop-off is door-to-door, you finish the ride wherever you need to be in Palmetto Bay, whether that is a home, a rental, or a place you are visiting, without any last-mile scramble to reach the front step. It is a gentle, green corner of South Florida to close out the journey, and a simple one to settle into once the driving is done.
The ride begins at the door of your hotel, resort, vacation home, or any address across the Orlando region, at the time you set when you book. Your driver arrives at the agreed spot, loads the luggage into the vehicle, and the same driver and the same vehicle stay with your party for the whole run, so there is no changing cars and no waiting at a hub along the way. From there the route heads south out of Central Florida on Florida’s Turnpike and I-95, covering about 232 miles down into South Florida.
You settle into a climate-controlled cabin while the driver handles the road, the tolls, and the pace, and you reach Palmetto Bay rested rather than worn out. The drive runs roughly four hours off-peak, though holiday traffic and hectic journey days can add time, so the pickup hour is set around your plans. A planned stop along the way is simple to arrange when you add it at booking, and the journey ends with a door-to-door drop-off at your Palmetto Bay address.

Every policy in full: FAQ
Our extended family rode together from Orlando straight to the house in Palmetto Bay, and it couldn’t have been easier. The driver dropped us at the door of our rental in Palmetto Bay, not at some corner.
Viemos com amigos e queríamos todos nós numa viagem privativa só de Orlando até Palmetto Bay em vez de um comboio de carros alugados. Cochilamos um pouco e relaxamos na descida desde Orlando — nada a ver com carro alugado e estacionamento. Sinceramente a parte mais fácil da viagem toda — tudo simplesmente funcionou.
Todo en orden. primera vez con transfer privado en Miami, sin arrepentirnos, además no hubo que buscar a nadie, el auto estaba donde dijeron
Clean SUV, easy pickup in Orlando, and a driver who found the address in Palmetto Bay with no trouble. Would book again.
Traveling on my own, I was done with the park days in Orlando and heading down to stay with friends in Palmetto Bay. Booking was simple, I got the pickup details in writing, and it all lined up perfectly.
