From $140 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Tiki Bar @ The Ramada Inn in a chauffeured SUV or van.
The fare is locked per vehicle for the one-way journey, and it already covers the tolls, the fuel and the driver’s time.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. The curbside greeting at the terminal is included; the Meet & Greet at the terminal, your driver holding a name sign, is available for $40. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
The Tiki Bar @ The Ramada Inn is exactly what the name promises: a relaxed bar attached to a Ramada Inn, the kind of address where a cruise week either winds down over a drink or picks up its first simple evening. The property sits up in Fort Lauderdale, the coastal city that follows the cruise terminal by a short run north, and it makes a simple, welcoming place to land once your ship has cleared and the terminal has emptied.
Fort Lauderdale earns its nickname, the Venice of America, honestly. Canals thread the city all the way from Las Olas out to the Intracoastal, and the beachfront promenade runs for miles, so the neighborhood around your stay leans toward water, walking, and unhurried afternoons. Dropping straight to the door here means you step out of the vehicle already inside that setting rather than at the far edge of it, bags carried to the curb beside you.
For the details only the hotel can answer with authority, the front desk is the right source. Rooms, on-site parking, and check-in timing all live with the property itself, so anything about your reservation there is worth confirming directly with the Ramada. What the ride handles is everything up to that entrance: one group, one vehicle, and a bilingual chauffeur who knows the port and the roads that lead to this stretch of Fort Lauderdale. You reach at the Tiki Bar @ The Ramada Inn with the journey behind you and the evening open, whether that means a quiet drink, an early check-in, or a short stroll toward the canals.
Booked ahead, disembarkation becomes the simple part. Your reserved vehicle is staged for the terminal curb before your group clears the exit hall, so the wait is the driver’s rather than yours, with 60 minutes of courtesy wait built into every port pickup. Once you are aboard, the chauffeur loads the luggage, and the car runs straight up I-95 toward Fort Lauderdale with no added stops along the way.
Plan on roughly 40 to 55 minutes terminal to door, depending on traffic and the hour, since disembarkation mornings stack up speedy at the terminal exits. The vehicle is solely your group’s for the whole run, tolls and fuel already inside the flat fare, and full luggage assist comes at both ends. The chauffeur drops you at the entrance of the Tiki Bar @ The Ramada Inn and sets your bags at the curb, leaving nothing to sort out on arrival.

Excelente serviço. o atendimento por mensagem foi direto e claro.
Carro limpo. Reservei tranquilo. Sem dor de cabeça.
Minha esposa e eu tivemos uma viagem incrível e rematamos com um carro privativo pronto no meio-fio para nos levar até Tiki Bar @ The Ramada Inn — sem uma só preocupação no terminal. Uma passagem fácil e simples para nós dois — do navio até Tiki Bar @ The Ramada Inn sem nada para resolver. Para sair do navio e chegar a Tiki Bar @ The Ramada Inn de forma confiável, valeu muito a pena. Reservaria para o próximo cruzeiro.
The kids were running on empty when we walked off, and a private van already at the curb got everyone to Tiki Bar @ The Ramada Inn in one piece. The kids crashed in the car, and getting straight to Tiki Bar @ The Ramada Inn without a scramble at the port was perfect. The driver loaded all our cruise luggage so we didn’t have to juggle it all. Would book again for the next cruise.
My partner and I wanted a clean handoff outside the terminal, so we booked a private ride to Tiki Bar @ The Ramada Inn before we even sailed. The car was roomy enough for all the cruise luggage, and the AC was perfect after the ship. The night before, we got a text with the driver’s name and license plate, so there was nothing to figure out on the way out.
