From $89 per vehicle — a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami straight to your Pinewood door.
Each figure below is the full-vehicle rate to any Pinewood address, set at booking and held there no matter the traffic.
On disembarkation morning you leave the ship, gather your cases in the baggage hall, and pass the document check before reaching the exit. The driver is already standing at the terminal curb as you walk out, so there is no app to open and no rideshare lot to search. Because the pickup follows your vessel’s real arrival rather than a guessed time, a slow turnaround morning never leaves you stranded within the free waiting time. From the curb it is a direct cross-county drive, with the bags loaded for you.
Pinewood is a calm, mostly residential corner of north-central Miami-Dade. Rather than a visitor strip, its palm-shaded streets hold family-owned businesses, corner markets and small local restaurants. The area still sits within a simple reach of the wider city’s beaches, shopping and cultural stops, so it works as a settled base between sailings. Cruise-turnaround mornings move unevenly; the driver just takes the clearest path across the county to your Pinewood address. Travelers after an everyday, lived-in Miami feel with the bigger attractions close by tend to settle in well here.
There is no surcharge for pickups between 7 AM and 9 PM. 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. This ride is priced below the $400 mark, so the SUV night fee here is $20, for pickups between 9 PM and 7 AM.
The fare is per vehicle rather than per traveler, so your whole group rides on the one figure listed in the fares above. One passenger or a packed van, the total does not climb with each head. A round trip is that figure twice over, kept in one booking.
Yes. Beyond Pinewood, the driver runs private drop-offs from the cruise terminal to Miami International, Fort Lauderdale and other onward points. The car and the per-vehicle flat rate match the earlier quote, with the ship tracked so a late dock never rushes an onward flight.

Interior limpio. Conductor amable. Buen precio
Desembarcando por mi cuenta, tenía un conductor listo y esperando para ir a Pinewood — sin nada librado al azar. La noche anterior recibí un texto con el nombre del conductor y la placa, así que no había nada que resolver al salir. El viaje a Pinewood fue cómodo y sin apuros, con clima controlado, y pude relajarme tras el crucero. Sin estrés alguno.
Waiting at the curb the moment we walked out, and a comfortable ride to Pinewood.
The painless way to handle PortMiami disembarkation. Highly recommend. The night before, we got a text with the driver’s name and plate number, so there was no wondering which car was ours when we walked out.
All of us came off the ship at once and it was a relief to have one private van waiting at the terminal for the ride to Pinewood — no splitting up. The driver took care of every bag so we didn’t have to struggle with anything. Booking was simple, we got everything in writing, and everything matched what we were told.
