From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to The Lion King Family Suites in a chauffeured SUV or van.
Pricing is by vehicle, not by seat: a solo traveler and a full car pay the same flat one-way rate.
Walk off, clear the terminal, and the private vehicle is already outside. The driver knows which terminal the ship uses and times the pickup to the real disembarkation, with the curbside greeting included in the fare and the Meet & Greet at the terminal available for $40 if you desire it. Bags in, and the car heads out of the port.
The Lion King Family Suites is a family-minded stay in Kissimmee, the resort town that sits south of the Disney region in Central Florida. It stands along the well-known tourist corridor of US-192, also called the Irlo Bronson Highway, a stretch that gathers resorts, restaurants, and pool-home communities into one hectic line. If you are traveling with children after a cruise, this is the kind of address built around exactly that kind of journey.
The setting is simple to picture. The Irlo Bronson corridor runs right past the property, so much of what visitors come to Kissimmee for is close by. Old Town Kissimmee, with its classic-car cruise-ins and small-town main street, is within simple reach. So is Gatorland, the long-running wildlife park. A little further out, Lake Tohopekaliga — locals call it Lake Toho — draws people for its airboat rides across the open water. It is a part of Florida that leans into families and open air rather than city bustle.
When your ride reaches the property, the drop-off is right at your stay, not a distant parking lot. The chauffeur handles the drive-up to the door and unloads the bags there, and coverage extends to the streets around the suites throughout Kissimmee. After a long day that started with stepping off a ship, arriving straight at the entrance with your group and your luggage — and nothing else to sort out — is the point. You walk in, and the journey part of the day is merely finished.
This is one direct leg. Your chauffeur meets your group at the cruise terminal curb once you clear the hall, loads the luggage into the vehicle, and heads north on Florida’s Turnpike toward Kissimmee. It runs roughly 221.6 miles, and you should plan on about 231 to 241 minutes terminal to door depending on how the traffic sits that day. There is no transfer point and no second vehicle — the same car carries your group the whole way.
The pickup is timed to your ship’s actual disembarkation rather than a guessed clock time, which matters most on weekend mornings when thousands of passengers walk off at once. Tolls and fuel are already inside the flat fare, so nothing gets added on the road. You set the departure and the pace, the bags stay with you, and the driver brings you straight to the entrance of The Lion King Family Suites.

After our cruise, my husband and I didn’t feel like chasing a ride at the terminal, so we pre-booked a private car to The Lion King Family Suites. An easy, relaxed handoff for the two of us — off the ship and into The Lion King Family Suites with nothing left to sort out.
Cruising with the kids, we didn’t want any disembarkation-day chaos, so a private van waiting at the terminal The Lion King Family Suites made the day. The driver took care of every bag so we didn’t have to lift a thing. We were dropped straight at the door of The Lion King Family Suites, not down the block.
I was traveling solo and set up a private car to meet me at the cruise terminal once the ship docked and take me straight to The Lion King Family Suites. The van was fresh and comfortable, and the AC was perfect after the ship. There was a thirty-minute cushion from the agreed time, so I never had to rush to gather the bags.
