From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Silver Lake Resort 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.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, the Meet & Greet at the terminal adds $40, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
Silver Lake Resort sits in Kissimmee, along the US-192 / Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway corridor — the long-running value base for travelers heading to central Florida’s theme parks. It puts you within easy reach of the big attractions while keeping you a little apart from the crowds, in the kind of spread-out resort setting families tend to favor when a cruise turns into a longer Florida trip.
The region around the resort is built for vacation days. Old Town Kissimmee and its carnival strip are close by, and the gator attractions the region is known for sit just minutes from Disney. If you want water and open sky rather than rides, Lake Tohopekaliga and the Kissimmee Lakefront are both nearby, giving you a calmer counterpoint to the parks. It is a corridor made for people who want the attractions handy but a quieter home base at the end of the day.
When your driver pulls in, you are dropped at the entrance with your bags carried to the curb beside you — no dragging luggage across a parking lot after a long travel day. The resort side of things — amenities, luggage holds, early check-in and the rest — is covered on Silver Lake Resort’s official page, so you can settle in on your own terms. If you are staying on after the cruise, the US-192 corridor and Old Town keep restaurants, shops and errands within a short hop of your door.
The ride begins at the Port of Miami once you have cleared disembarkation. Your driver is staged before you come off the ship, so the wait belongs to them, not you — disembarkation mornings back up fast at the terminal exits, and having the vehicle ready keeps you moving. One group rides per vehicle, your luggage goes in with you, and you head out as a party of your own rather than waiting on anyone else.
From the port the route follows Florida’s Turnpike north toward Kissimmee, a run that typically takes 235 to 246 minutes depending on traffic and the hour. Tolls and fuel are already built into your flat rate, so nothing is added along the way. Your bags stay in the vehicle the whole time, and the driver brings you straight to the entrance at Silver Lake Resort — door to door, with no transfers in between.
Booking takes the full fare up front, paid online. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.

Getting off the ship on my own, I felt looked after from the terminal all the way to the door of Silver Lake Resort. I had the driver’s details ahead of time, so there was nothing to worry about at the terminal.
The kids were done after a week at sea when we walked off, and a private van already at the curb got everyone to Silver Lake Resort with no drama. The night before, we got a message with the driver’s name and plate number, so there was no guessing at the curb on the way out.
Our whole group rode together straight from the port to Silver Lake Resort, and nobody had to think about a thing. Honestly the most stress-free part of the whole trip — the port end was completely handled. The fare was fixed when we booked, the same number we were quoted.
Our family of five came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver helped with the whole pile of luggage for the ride to Silver Lake Resort. We went from the terminal to a real bed with no stress at all. The driver got the whole pile of luggage in so we didn’t have to lift a thing.
I was traveling on my own and set up a private car to meet me at the terminal curb once the ship docked and take me straight to Silver Lake Resort. I went from the ship to the front desk of Silver Lake Resort with zero hassle along the way. The night before, I got a message with the driver’s name and plate number, so there was no wondering which car was the right one on the way out.
