From $600 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from MIA to Universal Studios Portofino Bay Resort in a chauffeured SUV or van.
These are fixed one-way fares for the whole car or van, tolls and fuel included, so the total is known before anyone gets in.
Offer us the flight number and the driver plans the pickup around the actual arrival. The greeting at the MIA arrivals curb is included; the Meet & Greet inside the terminal with a name sign is a $40 add-on. Bags go in, doors close, and the vehicle leaves for the destination without sharing the ride with anyone else.
Universal Studios Portofino Bay Resort is part of the Universal Orlando Resort in Orlando, one of the busiest vacation corners in the state. It sits along the International Drive tourism area, the strip that ties together the theme parks, the hotels, and the visitor attractions that draw families from all over. When your ride pulls up, you step out at the door of the resort itself rather than somewhere down the road, which matters after a long travel day with children and luggage in tow.
The setting puts you close to Universal Orlando Resort and the ICON Park observation wheel, with the Orange County Convention Center a short distance away for anyone traveling for work as well as play. Everything here is built around visitors, so the streets, the parking. That makes the last stretch of your trip simple and peaceful.
For shoppers, the Orlando International Premium Outlets are within simple reach of the same area, so a free afternoon does not have to mean a long expedition. Questions about rooms, park tickets, and resort amenities belong with Universal’s own team, since those change frequently and they know their property top. Our part is the ground you cover between the airport and the front door, and we handle that piece so the rest of your Orlando stay can start the moment you arrive.
The trip runs door to door, from the arrivals level at Miami International Airport straight to the entrance of Universal Studios Portofino Bay Resort. It covers roughly 232 miles by way of Florida’s Turnpike, and the drive takes about 225 to 233 minutes depending on the traffic you meet along the way. Your bags ride in the same vehicle with you, and there is no changing cars or waiting on a connection partway through.
Your driver tracks your flight, so a landing that comes in early or late simply shifts the pickup rather than costing you the ride. After you clear the terminal, the driver meets you, helps with the luggage, and walks you to the vehicle. From there it is one steady run north with room to stretch out, your own climate control, and a rest stop worked in whenever your group wants one.

I booked a private transfer from MIA to Universal Studios Portofino Bay Resort so I could just walk out and go after the flight. No taxi line, no standing around waiting on an app — I just walked out and the car was there.
Minha esposa e eu quisemos evitar o caos de táxi do aeroporto, então reservamos a viagem até Universal Studios Portofino Bay Resort.
Traveling with the whole family, I was NOT about to wrangle a taxi at MIA, so I booked a private van to Universal Studios Portofino Bay Resort. It was a private car just for us, which made the ride to Universal Studios Portofino Bay Resort easy and calm. Landing after midnight, it was so reassuring to have a private car already waiting instead of hunting for a ride.
