Book a private cruise transfer to or from Port of Miami and Boulevard Gardens for a flat rate from $250 per vehicle. Your private Black SUV or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van meets your group curbside at the PortMiami terminal, loads the cruise luggage, and drives door-to-door to Boulevard Gardens. One bilingual driver, one fixed price, booked before you sail.
The transfer is priced per vehicle for your whole group, so everyone rides for one price no matter the headcount.
The simplest way to reach Boulevard Gardens after your cruise is a private vehicle booked before you sail. You choose the size that fits your party: a Black SUV for up to five travelers, or a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van for six to nine or ten to fourteen. Once your ship clears the PortMiami terminal, your driver is already waiting curbside, helps load every piece of cruise luggage, and drives your group straight to the Boulevard Gardens door. There is no public-transit connection to juggle and no line to stand in with suitcases. You confirm the pickup by WhatsApp or online, receive your driver’s name and vehicle details the day before, and step off the ship into a car held for you alone. It works the same way for a departure run back to the ship on sailing day.
Message us on WhatsApp or reserve through the website at least 24 hours before pickup. We confirm your vehicle, then text the driver’s name, make, and license plate the day before, along with exact pickup instructions. Under-24-hour requests are reviewed by hand, though availability is not guaranteed.
Cruise days run on a tight clock, and a private transfer removes the guesswork. Your vehicle is reserved for your group alone, never pooled with strangers, so you leave the terminal the moment your luggage is loaded. Every driver is bilingual, speaking English plus Spanish or Portuguese, which helps when a family is coordinating kids, bags, and a schedule at once. The flat rate is locked when you book, so the price you agree to is the price you pay, with no surge for peak hours or demand. You reach a real person directly on WhatsApp before and during the trip, not an app queue. Drivers help load and unload every bag, and the whole run is door-to-door. For arriving and departing cruise passengers watching a boarding deadline, that coordination is the point.
A private ride leaves on your timing, not a fixed group schedule. There are no extra pickups or drop-offs before yours, no waiting for a vehicle to fill, and no scramble if your group is large. Your whole party and its luggage travel together in one vehicle, straight to the door.
Travel time to Boulevard Gardens depends mostly on when your ship clears customs and how heavy traffic is that day. On a quiet off-peak morning the run is direct and steady; during rush hours or when several ships disembark at once, the roads around the port fill quickly and the same trip stretches longer. Because the fare is fixed per vehicle, a slower drive never changes what you pay — traffic is our problem, not yours. Your driver watches the ship’s disembarkation timing and plans the departure around it, so you are not waiting in a hot terminal and the car is not idling on a meter. Rather than promise an exact figure we cannot honor for every sailing, we plan each pickup around your real disembark window and the day’s conditions, then take the most sensible route to the Boulevard Gardens door.
It can. When three or more ships dock on the same morning, the exits around PortMiami back up and every transfer moves slower. Your driver tracks the crowd and the ship schedule, times the pickup to miss the worst of it where possible, and keeps the fare fixed no matter how long the road takes.
Boulevard Gardens is a residential garden-apartment cooperative community, the kind of quiet, established neighborhood built around landscaped courtyards and low-rise brick buildings rather than tourist crowds. Arriving from the ship, you trade the bustle of the cruise terminal for tree-lined walkways and a calm, lived-in setting where families and long-time residents come and go. It is an area to settle into rather than sightsee through, with everyday shops, cafes, and local services within easy reach of the courtyards. You can read more about the community at the Boulevard Gardens community site or browse the Boulevard Gardens cooperative pages. Our driver takes you straight to the address you give and unloads the cruise luggage right at the door.
Visitors usually look at the surrounding residential districts and nearby commercial streets rather than a resort strip. We drop you at whichever local address you provide — a rental, a relative’s home, or a nearby district — and load or unload your cruise bags right at the door. Give us the exact address when you book.
The area leans residential and everyday rather than touristy, so the draw is local: neighborhood eateries, small shops, parks, and community spaces along the surrounding streets. It suits travelers visiting family or settling in after a cruise. Tell the driver your destination and we handle the door-to-door drop with your luggage.
Your rate covers the full door-to-door ride with no hidden add-ons. Tolls, SunPass charges, and fuel are all built into the price, so nothing is collected on the road. Every vehicle carries onboard WiFi through a mobile hotspot, and each passenger’s standard luggage allowance rides along with plenty of room for cruise bags. Courtesy waiting is included: 30 minutes at the cruise terminal from the agreed pickup time, and 15 minutes for a hotel pickup. Your driver’s name, vehicle make, and license plate are texted the day before, and the driver helps load and unload every bag. The first child seat is free for a child under five. What sits outside the rate is listed just below, so nothing is a surprise when the driver arrives.
Food and drinks, driver gratuity, parking costs, and any unscheduled stop fall outside the rate. Gratuity is optional and always appreciated. A short nearby stop arranged in advance can usually be added, and each additional child seat beyond the first carries a small fee confirmed at booking. Extra waiting past the courtesy window is billed in 30-minute blocks.
Yes, small pets are welcome with advance notice on WhatsApp, carried in a pet carrier. Let us know the pet and carrier size when you book so the driver arrives ready and there is room for both your group and the cruise luggage. Just mention it before the trip, not on pickup day.
Three private vehicle classes cover cruise parties of every size, and you pick by headcount rather than paying per seat.
Payment is handled before or on the day of the trip. We accept Venmo, Zelle, or a secure payment link sent by WhatsApp or through the website; card and link payments carry a 4% bank fee. Full cash payment at pickup is not accepted. A round trip is simply double the one-way price shown above, booked as one reservation. For a pickup that starts at PortMiami or elsewhere on the Miami side, you confirm with a 50% deposit and pay the remaining 50% to the driver on trip day, cash accepted for that balance. Reverse-direction pickups from farther areas such as Broward or Palm Beach are paid in full ahead of time. You receive the driver’s details the day before either way, so payment and pickup are settled before you step off the ship.
Cancel 24 or more hours before pickup for a full refund. Within 24 hours of the pickup time the booking is non-refundable. You can also move a booked pickup time with 24 or more hours notice, subject to availability, which helps when a cruise itinerary shifts. Just message us on WhatsApp to change or cancel.
Daytime pickups carry no surcharge. For a pickup outside those daytime hours, a small surcharge applies by vehicle type:
Nothing changes on your end. Your driver tracks the ship’s arrival and disembarkation timing and re-times the pickup at no extra cost when the vessel docks late. The vehicle is not on a meter while you clear customs, and the fixed fare stays the same. You simply head to the pickup point once you are off.
Your driver waits curbside right at the PortMiami cruise terminal and meets your group as you exit with your luggage. If you request it on WhatsApp in advance, the driver holds a name sign so you spot the car quickly. You get the driver’s name, vehicle make, and plate the day before to make the meet easy.
Yes. Disembarkation-day pickups are the core of what we do. Book at least 24 hours ahead, share your ship and terminal, and the driver plans the pickup around your real off-boarding time. Because the driver tracks the ship, an early or late clearance is handled without a new booking or a changed fare.
Each passenger’s standard allowance is one checked bag plus one carry-on, and every vehicle has room for cruise luggage. For extra or oversized bags, message us on WhatsApp in advance and we confirm the space or size you up to a larger van. Drivers help load and unload every piece at both ends.
The price is per vehicle, not per person, so your whole group rides for the one flat price listed above no matter the headcount. A round trip is simply double the one-way rate, and a pickup outside daytime hours adds a small surcharge. Filling the SUV or van with your party gives the best value.

El auto llegó un poco caliente por el sol, pero el chofer se disculpó y fue amable.
El auto llegó un poco caliente por el sol, pero lo resolvieron rápido por mensaje. (éramos 8 en la van y entró todo bien)
The driver knew the route cold. My parents were delighted.
El día del desembarque había muchísima gente en el puerto. La camioneta estaba impecable por dentro. Manejó tranquilo incluso con el tráfico del puerto.
Después del crucero no queríamos complicarnos con taxis. El chofer conocía la ruta perfectamente.
