Hiring a car or van with a private driver at PortMiami puts a chauffeured Black SUV XL, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, or Platinum SUV at your disposal by the hour on a five-hour minimum, with a bilingual chauffeur driving, at a flat rate from $90 per hour. The driver is part of the vehicle rather than an extra — self-drive is never offered — and the same car and chauffeur stay through your whole block of hours.
Figures are flat, attached to the vehicle, and settled at booking, with every reservation covering a minimum of five hours.
At the terminal the checked cases leave you at the curb, where the porters take them, and only what the group is carrying goes inside. That is worth thinking about when the chauffeur loads in the morning: bags heading to the porters want to sit where they come out first, and anything needed for the day itself rides on top of them.
You get a vehicle of your own and a professional driver at your command, hour by hour.
Step off the ship at PortMiami and your chauffeur is already waiting, ready to drive — no counter, no insurance form, no parking garage enters the picture. An executive runs a morning of meetings around Brickell and downtown, then swings to lunch in Coconut Grove without a single re-booking. A family loads strollers and shopping bags into a Sprinter and lets the driver take every turn while the children nap. A group of friends turns a scattered wish list — Wynwood murals, a Little Havana stroll, sunset along South Beach — into one chauffeured loop. Because the same car and driver stay reserved for your group throughout, the vehicle waits at the curb while you eat, browse, or take photographs. It is a hire of the vehicle with the driver attached, built for the way real days in Miami actually unfold.
Four private tiers reach from a couple to a group of fourteen.
The Black SUV XL carries up to 5 passengers in comfort, well suited to a family or a small crew with luggage. The Mercedes-Benz Sprinter for 6 to 9 passengers gives mid-size groups room to spread out and stow bags. The larger Mercedes-Benz Sprinter seats 10 to 14 passengers, keeping a whole party together in one private vehicle. The Platinum SUV carries 1 to 6 passengers with an upscale finish — Reference Cars: Cadillac Escalade, Lincoln Navigator, Ford Expedition. Every vehicle allows one checked bag plus one carry-on per passenger; for extra or oversized pieces, message us on WhatsApp in advance and we confirm the room or size you up to a larger van.
Your driver loops between whichever Miami stops you name and holds at each one.
Miami repays a day spent with a chauffeur who knows the map. Shoppers pair Aventura Mall with the boutiques of Brickell City Centre and the open-air stretch of Lincoln Road, dropping bags in the trunk between each. Sightseers chain Bayside Marketplace, the pastel streets of South Beach, and the galleries and murals of Wynwood, then finish over Cuban coffee in Little Havana. Foodies and night owls line up dinner in Coconut Grove, cocktails in the Design District, and a late set in a Brickell lounge, the car circling back after every stop. You choose the anchors that suit the day; the driver proposes a sensible order, times the drives, and takes care of parking so nobody in the group hunts for a space. The route stays yours to redraw on the move, with a stop added or dropped whenever the mood shifts.
Fuel, tolls, and parking all live inside the figure you agree to.
Your flat hourly rate covers fuel, tolls, and parking, so nothing piles on at a garage or an express lane. Onboard WiFi runs through a mobile hotspot to keep everyone connected between stops. One short comfort break mid-booking is simple and leaves the price alone. Traveling with children? The first child seat for a little one under five is free, and any extra seat carries a small fee confirmed at booking. Small pets are welcome with advance notice on WhatsApp, riding in a carrier. The main extra worth knowing about is the evening surcharge for trips outside daytime hours, plus any hours added beyond your reserved block, billed at that same flat rate. Past those, the rate you see is the rate you pay — no per-stop or per-mile additions appear along the way.
You choose the vehicle, name a start time, and the driver stays reserved.
Booking runs over WhatsApp: send your group size, a rough start time at PortMiami, and the stops on your wish list. We match you to the right vehicle, hold it with your deposit, and confirm the plan. On the day your chauffeur meets you at the terminal and stays dedicated to the group for the full reserved block — no fresh request at each stop, no stranger at the next pickup. The pace and the order are yours, so stay longer somewhere you like or drop a stop that no longer fits. If the day is going well and you want more time, add hours right there and the driver carries on at the same flat rate. The itinerary is never locked, which lets the day bend around you rather than a fixed timetable — one vehicle, one driver, your route.
As many as the hours comfortably permit — no fixed cap applies.
The block is yours to spend, so the number of stops comes down to how long you linger at each. A tight loop of shopping centers can absorb several in a few hours; a leisurely day of dining and photographs might hold two or three. The driver reads the map and the clock and paces the route so nobody feels rushed. One short comfort stop — a restroom, a snack, a stretch — is easy at any point; just ask, and the flat rate stays put. Because the vehicle waits between every stop, no time is lost re-requesting a ride or standing at a curb. If it turns out you want more room in the schedule, extend on the day and keep the same car rolling. The aim is simple: fit the day you actually want into the hours you reserve.
One private vehicle and driver held only for your group beats juggling separate rides.
Reserving by the hour buys certainty. Your rate is flat and settled the moment you book — traffic, weather, or a crowded cruise day never moves it, and no surge waits in the wings. The vehicle stays private to your group from the opening pickup to the final drop-off, with one bilingual chauffeur who learns your plan and waits between every stop instead of handing you to a new driver each time. Booking and adjusting happen directly over WhatsApp, so a change of plan is a quick message rather than a phone tree. That combination — a fixed price, a dedicated car, and a professional who stays with you — is what makes it an upscale service and a genuinely better experience than assembling a day ride by ride. It is built to feel unhurried and personal: your driver, your vehicle, your day, handled with care.
Cruise lines close boarding well before a ship sails, so that drop is timed against the boarding window printed on your ticket rather than the sailing time.
A handful of questions come up whenever people hire a chauffeured car or van from PortMiami — here are the direct answers before you book the day.
Yes — a professional bilingual chauffeur comes with every vehicle. This is a hire of the car or van with the driver, not without one. You never sit behind the wheel; your chauffeur takes the driving, the route, and the parking across the entire reserved block.
Fully chauffeured, never self-drive. No counter, no insurance paperwork, no keys pressed into your hand. You reserve a premium vehicle together with a vetted driver who stays with the group, so “renting for the day” here always means the car plus our chauffeur, by the hour.
Bookings begin at a five-hour minimum, which suits most cruise-day loops, shopping runs, and evenings out. From there extend as needed, right on the day, whenever the schedule allows. Each added hour bills at the same flat per-vehicle rate agreed at booking — never a renegotiated fare.
Match the vehicle to the headcount: the Black SUV XL for smaller parties, the 6-to-9 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter for mid-size groups, the 10-to-14 Sprinter for a full party, or the Platinum SUV for a premium ride with up to six. Send the group size on WhatsApp and we confirm the fit and the luggage room.
Yes — service runs daily, into the late evening. Your driver waits and brings the group back to PortMiami whenever the day or the night finishes. Trips running outside the 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM daytime window simply add the evening surcharge listed above; everything else stays at your fixed flat rate.
Pickup begins at PortMiami, and your booked hours can roam across greater Miami — Brickell, South Beach, Wynwood, Coconut Grove, the malls, and further. Point-to-point private transfers are available in the same vehicles as well, long-haul runs such as Miami to Orlando included, arranged over WhatsApp when you book.
Booking is straightforward: message us on WhatsApp with the group size, a rough start time, and your wish-list stops, then place the deposit to hold the date and the vehicle. No driver’s license, rental agreement, or credit hold is needed, since the chauffeur does all the driving.
Keeping one driver across the day makes the plan continuous — the same person knows your route, your bags, and your pace, and waits between every stop. Nobody reintroduces themselves or re-explains the plan at each pickup. Over a full day of stops, one reserved chauffeur is usually the calmer, more consistent choice.
For a service happening inside the next 24 hours, your date and time are locked and held purely for you — a driver and vehicle already set aside — so at that notice we cannot promise a moved date or a refund, and the booking runs exactly as agreed. The good part: more hours can always be added on the day.
Daytime hours from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM carry no surcharge; trips that run outside that window add a small surcharge.
Holding one premium service by the hour is a different arrangement from opening an app every time the group moves. A single vehicle and a single bilingual chauffeur stay yours across the whole block, the price is agreed before departure, and the car waits while you eat, shop, or take pictures — nothing to re-request, no surge, and no fresh stranger being told where you are going.
| By the hour with us | App rides (Uber / Lyft) |
|---|---|
| One flat hourly figure, agreed before you set off | A new fare each ride, climbing 1.5×–4× at peak |
| The same vehicle and driver stay with you all day | A different car and an unfamiliar driver at each pickup |
| Your driver holds between stops — nothing to re-book | Request again and wait at the curb after each stop |
| A vetted, professional bilingual chauffeur | Whoever happens to accept the ping |
Across a full day of stops, one reserved chauffeur usually finishes under a string of Uber Black or Lyft Lux surges — and it stays the calmer, more premium service from the first pickup to the last drop-off.

Yes, and it is a common booking. A ship in port for the day means the block opens at the terminal, spends the middle of the day wherever you choose, and returns everyone before all-aboard. Give the chauffeur that all-aboard time when you reserve — it, rather than the hours, is what decides when the day turns around.
Reserve the vehicle and driver over WhatsApp in a few minutes: send the group size, a rough start time at PortMiami, and the stops you have in mind, and we confirm the right vehicle and fix your rate with a deposit. Then step off the ship and let your chauffeur handle the driving, the route, and the parking while you take Miami at your own tempo. A family shopping loop, an executive day of meetings, or an evening out with friends — whichever it is, your car and driver stay ready and waiting between every stop. Message us today to hold the date.

Absolutely. We take reservations from any country, handle international payments, and keep you posted by WhatsApp and email throughout.
We operate on advance reservations only. Please plan for at least four hours’ lead time; anything same-day depends on availability and can’t be promised.

Not in full. A 50% deposit by Zelle or our secure payment link locks in the vehicle; you’re welcome to hand the remaining balance to the driver in cash on arrival.

Just send us the new details as soon as you have them; we’ll reschedule your pickup and keep watching the updated flight.
Curbside is our standard pickup. Text us your exit door and the driver pulls up within minutes — typically quicker than waiting for a sign-holder. Prefer to be met inside the terminal with a name sign? We can arrange that for an added $20.
The day before travel we message you the driver’s name, the vehicle’s make and model, and the plate number, plus clear curbside meeting instructions.
No need to worry. We message you the moment your flight touches down. If we don’t hear back quickly, the driver heads to the international arrivals hall on their own — wait there and we’ll find you. We never leave a passenger stranded.
Domestic arrivals get up to 60 minutes of free wait.
International arrivals get a courtesy window of up to 120 minutes.
Hotel pickups include a 15-minute grace period.
For seaport pickups we hold for up to 60 minutes past the agreed time.
It’s uncommon, because two free hours of waiting are already built in. Past that, the trip may count as a no-show. You can also pre-request more wait time at US$ 30 for each additional 30-minute block, paid to the driver in cash.
Yes. Our drivers gladly help load and unload your luggage.
The included allowance is one large suitcase plus one carry-on per passenger.

Yes. Give us a minimum of 24 hours’ notice and, subject to availability, we’ll shift your pickup to the new time.
