From $600 per vehicle — a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to St. Cloud, cruise-terminal curb straight to your door.
One flat number covers the whole vehicle, locked the moment you reserve and untouched by traffic or cruise-day demand. Choose the size that matches your party and pay per vehicle, never per seat.
The driver stands at the curb as you step out of the PortMiami cruise terminal, holding a name sign when you asked for one at booking. Every bag is loaded, then you walk to a reserved car rather than a garage stairwell or a rideshare queue. Send a WhatsApp note once you are through the terminal hall and the pickup is already set to your real off-boat hour. Ship arrivals drift around, so the driver follows your vessel and re-times at no charge when it berths late — no penalty and no fresh booking to make.
St. Cloud is a lakefront town that sits in Osceola County, tucked into Central Florida a little south of the theme-park corridor. The mood is small-town and family-first: a compact old downtown lined with low-rise storefronts and cafes, calm residential blocks, and a long shoreline on Lake Tohopekaliga where people walk, fish, and picnic through the afternoon. It feels more like a quiet place to settle in than a resort strip, a fit for cruise guests stretching a Florida trip a few extra days. The City of St. Cloud official site lists local parks and events if you want to sketch the stay ahead of time. Drop-off is door-to-door at whatever address you give — a relative’s house, a vacation rental, or a downtown inn.
This is a genuine long-distance leg, not a quick cross-town hop. The driver pulls out of the port and heads up Florida’s Turnpike, tracing the highway north until the Osceola County exits appear. Off-peak the road runs clear and the ride holds a steady, easy pace; on mornings when several ships empty together, the port exits and the first miles out of Miami crawl until traffic loosens, so an early confirmed pickup helps. On a haul this length the driver can fold in one short comfort stop — a restroom or a snack — when you flag it ahead. The cabin stays climate-controlled with onboard WiFi the whole way, and the flat fare holds no matter how the road behaves that day.
A round journey is just the one-way fare doubled for your chosen vehicle — no hidden multiplier sits on top. Booking both legs together locks the same flat rate and coordinates your return to the port with the ship’s boarding time. The full fare for each leg is paid when you book.
Yes — disembarkation mornings are the core of this run. Send your ship name and expected off-boat time when you reserve, ideally a day or more ahead, and the driver watches the vessel and is curb-side as you clear the terminal. Even when several ships empty at once, your reserved vehicle is already there, and the courtesy waiting is built into the fare.
Every driver works bilingually — English and Spanish — which helps arriving cruise passengers sort the drive as they settle in. Message ahead on WhatsApp in either language and the pickup details are confirmed before your ship even docks. That same direct line stays open on travel day if plans shift.
