A private black car runs to or from Port of Miami and Sunny Isles Beach for a flat rate from $120 per vehicle — 19.8 miles up I-95 North, about 46 to 55 minutes door to door depending on traffic. Reserve a Black SUV for up to five travelers, or a private Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van for a larger cruise group, with curbside terminal pickup and full luggage help.
Each fare below is a flat, per-vehicle rate — your whole group rides for one price, sized only by how many seats you need.
The simplest route is a private black car reserved ahead of your sail date, waiting curbside as you clear the PortMiami terminal.
You pick the vehicle by group size: a Black SUV for up to five travelers, or a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van when six to fourteen of you are heading to the beach together. The driver loads your cruise luggage, then heads north to your Sunny Isles Beach address — no extra stops, no transfers, and no waiting on a fixed schedule. To set it up, message us on WhatsApp or book through the website at least 24 hours before pickup; we confirm the vehicle, the flat fare, and the exact terminal meeting point. The day before you sail home, we text the driver’s name, the vehicle make, and the license plate, so you know precisely who to look for when you step off the ship. It is one booking and one driver, from the terminal curb to your door.
Every booking is a private vehicle kept for your group alone, with a bilingual driver and a fare that never moves after you reserve.
You never share the ride with strangers or wait on a pooled schedule. Your driver speaks English plus Spanish or Portuguese, which smooths the arrival for international cruise families. The fare is locked when you reserve, so the number you agree to is the number you pay. We handle the parts that make cruise days hard: the driver helps load and unload every bag, keeps a direct WhatsApp line open for last-minute changes, and knows the PortMiami terminals well. We have run private transfers around Miami for more than five years, operate 24/7 year-round, and stay licensed and insured. One message sets the whole thing up, and one driver sees it through the entire way.
Three private vehicles cover this route, sized to your group and its luggage.
Not sure which to pick? Send your headcount and bag count on WhatsApp and we match you to the right vehicle before you pay.
The flat rate already covers the extras other rides tack on at the curb.
Tolls, SunPass, and fuel are built into the price, so there is nothing to settle on the road. Onboard WiFi runs off a mobile hotspot. The first child seat is free for a child under five — just ask when you book, and flag it if you need more than one. Small pets are welcome with advance notice on WhatsApp, riding in a pet carrier. Courtesy waiting is included too: 30 minutes at the cruise terminal from your agreed pickup time, and 15 minutes for hotel pickups. Cancellations made 24 or more hours ahead are refunded in full; inside 24 hours the booking is non-refundable. You can also move a booked pickup time with 24 hours notice, subject to availability.
A few things sit outside the fare. Driver gratuity is optional and always appreciated but never added automatically. Food and drinks, parking costs, and unscheduled stops are not included, though a short nearby stop arranged in advance can usually be accommodated for a small fee. Any child seat beyond the first free one carries an extra charge, confirmed when you book.
Door to door, plan on 46 to 55 minutes across the 19.8 miles from PortMiami to Sunny Isles Beach.
Off-peak — early mornings and mid-days — the northbound run holds near 46 minutes. During weekday rush or when several ships empty at once, the same drive climbs toward 55 minutes as traffic thickens on the way out of downtown. Because the fare is flat, none of that touches your price; a slow crawl costs the same as a clear road. We build the extra minutes into your pickup time on disembark mornings, when the terminals release thousands of passengers in a short window. If you have a firm hotel check-in or an onward plan in Sunny Isles Beach, tell us when you book and we time the pickup to land you there with margin to spare.
Sunny Isles Beach is a slim strip of oceanfront high-rises between the Atlantic and the Intracoastal, known for wide golden sand and a calm, family-friendly pace.
Cruise travelers come off the ship into a neighborhood built around the beach: oceanfront parks, a fishing pier, casual and upscale dining, and easy reach of the shopping and nightlife of greater North Miami-Dade. The mood is more residential and relaxed than South Beach, which suits families and anyone wanting quiet water after a busy sailing. You can read more in the official Sunny Isles Beach visitor guide before you travel. Whether you are starting a longer stay or catching a few beach days before flying home, the area rewards slow mornings and long walks by the water.
Sunny Isles Beach itself is the easiest base, with oceanfront blocks along Collins Avenue steps from the sand. If you want more shopping and dining density, the nearby Aventura area sits just inland, while the Bal Harbour and North Miami Beach areas offer a quieter, upscale feel. We drop you at any address you choose, so pick the block that fits your trip.
The beach is the main event — wide sand, lifeguarded swimming, and a walkable oceanfront path. Beyond it you will find a fishing pier, waterfront parks, paddle and jet-ski rentals through local operators, and a run of restaurants from casual cafés to oceanview dining. Families gravitate to the calm shallows, while evenings bring a relaxed dining-and-strolling scene along the water.
You can pay by Venmo, Zelle, or a secure payment link sent over WhatsApp or through the website.
Card and link payments add a 4% bank fee. Full cash at pickup is not accepted. A round trip is simply double the one-way fare shown above. For a pickup starting at PortMiami or elsewhere on the Miami side, a 50% deposit confirms the booking and the remaining 50% can go to the driver on trip day, cash included. Reverse-direction pickups from farther out — Broward, Palm Beach, and beyond — are paid in full ahead of the trip. Once your deposit lands, the ride is locked in, and we send your driver’s details the day before you travel so there are no surprises at the curb.
Beyond the cruise terminal, the same private cars handle hotel pickups, event nights, and business travel across the Miami area.
If you are staying at a Sunny Isles Beach property and need a lift, we run door-to-door hotel transfers with 15 minutes of courtesy waiting built in. For a Miami sports game, a concert, or a night out, you can book the point-to-point transfer or our private hourly chauffeur, which runs on a five-hour minimum and keeps the same vehicle and driver with you throughout. Corporate and bleisure travelers use the hourly service to string together meetings, dinners, and a hotel run without re-booking each leg. Every option is private and reserved for your group alone — no pooling, no metering, just one driver on call for the plan you set.
Daytime pickups between 7:00 AM and 9:00 PM carry no surcharge. For trips that start outside that window, a modest after-hours amount is added:
Nothing changes on your end. The driver tracks your ship’s arrival and disembark timing and re-times the pickup at no extra cost when you dock late. You walk off, the car is there. Because the fare is flat, a delayed docking never adds to your price or bumps you to a new booking.
Both work. Book a one-way ride to or from Port of Miami and Sunny Isles Beach, or a round trip that covers the return leg too. A round trip is priced as double the one-way fare — one booking, the same driver and vehicle class, and pickups coordinated around your sailing dates.
Plenty. Each passenger gets one checked bag and one carry-on, and there is room for cruise luggage in every vehicle. Have extra or oversized bags? Message us on WhatsApp in advance and we confirm the space or size you up to a larger private van. The driver loads and unloads everything for you.
Per vehicle. The flat rate above covers the whole group — one price whether one or five ride in the SUV, or up to fourteen in a private van. You are not charged per head, so a full family or friend group splits a single fare rather than paying separately.
Message us on WhatsApp or use the website at least 24 hours before pickup. Tell us your date, direction, group size, and any child seats or pets. We confirm the vehicle and flat fare, take a deposit to lock it, and text your driver’s name and plate the day before. Under-24-hour requests are reviewed manually.
Right at the curb. As your group exits the PortMiami cruise terminal, the driver is waiting curbside, holding a name sign if you request one on WhatsApp ahead of time. Send a message once you are off the ship and cleared, and we guide you straight to the vehicle for loading.
A more coordinated, premium service — flat fare, named driver, cruise-terminal pickup — at a significantly lower total cost than Uber Black or Lyft Lux.

Pickup was right outside the cruise terminal doors. The flat price took all the guesswork out. Five stars, earned.
Llegamos antes de lo que esperábamos. Nos mostró el nombre en un cartel al llegar. Lo volveríamos a contratar sin pensarlo.
They texted a confirmation the same day, the driver knew the route cold, booking on WhatsApp took five minutes!.
Salimos del barco más tarde de lo previsto. El maletero alcanzó para todo el equipaje del grupo. Nos sacaron un peso de encima
