A private cruise transfer to or from Port of Miami and Ac & Element Hotel Brickell Miami runs about 2.9 miles in 13–15 minutes via Biscayne Boulevard and US-1, at a flat rate from $80 per vehicle — a private SUV with a bilingual chauffeur, luggage help, and pickup right at your ship’s own terminal.
These are one-way, per-vehicle rates for transfers to or from Port of Miami; the price you book is the price you pay.
The most reliable option is a pre-booked private transfer: a private SUV assigned to your group, timed to your ship’s arrival, staged at the terminal when you walk off.
From the pier it is one run along Biscayne Boulevard and US-1 — about 2.9 miles — ending at the door of Ac & Element Hotel Brickell Miami.
Tell us the ship and arrival date and we stage the vehicle for the morning rush: self-assist walkers come off early, checked-luggage groups later, and either way the driver is coordinated by message as you exit.
For an arts-first stay, Wynwood and Midtown deliver — the Wynwood Walls, indie galleries, food halls, and the Design District’s luxury storefronts.
The hotel side — amenities, luggage holds, early check-in — is covered at Ac & Element Hotel Brickell Miami’s official page.
Child safety seats are part of the service:
A few things sit outside the fare, so you can plan for them:
Courtesy wait time is included on every booking:
Count on roughly 13–15 minutes terminal to door, light traffic to heavy.
Disembarkation mornings stack up fast at the terminal exits; your driver is staged before you clear the hall, so the wait is theirs, not yours, and Biscayne Boulevard and US-1 does the rest.
We keep it personal: one group per vehicle, a bilingual chauffeur, and premium service from the first message to the terminal curb.
Reserving is simple: half now, half on the day, and a fair cancellation window.
Wynwood Walls and the Miami Design District sit within easy reach of the stay, with Midtown Miami and the Rubell Museum also nearby in Wynwood & Midtown.
At the hotel, look for your driver at the main entrance. At the port, the pickup is coordinated by message as you walk off, and the included 30-minute wait window absorbs slow gangways.
For early arrivals and late flights we run flexible, private hourly tours straight from the cruise terminals — the luggage stays locked in the vehicle while you explore.
At your ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island — the driver is coordinated by message as you exit the hall and meets your group at the curb. Tell us the cruise line and we stage at the correct terminal.
As soon as your group clears the terminal — self-assist walkers are often out within the first hour, checked-luggage groups a little later. Your booking includes 30 minutes of complimentary wait, so the pace of customs never costs you the ride.
Yes. One seat for a child under 5 rides free on every booking; additional seats carry a small fee listed in the add-ons section of this page.
We watch the port schedule and shift the pickup to the ship’s actual arrival — no penalty, no re-booking. The same applies to delayed flights on airport legs.
When the schedule falls outside 7:00 AM–9:00 PM, this is the only adjustment:
The difference shows at 8 AM on a turnaround Saturday: app queues and climbing multipliers at the port exits on one side; on the other, a chauffeur already staged at your terminal at a fare set days ago.
There is also the wait itself. A rideshare is requested only after you clear the hall and hauls you to a pickup zone; our driver is coordinated by message as you exit, with 30 minutes of courtesy wait already included, and a schedule change on your side is a message, not a new fare.

Message first rather than calling — we are often mid-service with other clients and answer texts fastest.

Curbside pickup is our main approach. Just message us your exit gate and the driver will roll up within minutes — typically quicker than the classic sign-holding option.
Should you rather have the driver wait in the terminal holding a sign with your name, we can set that up too for $20
The day before your ride, we’ll message you the driver’s name, the vehicle model, and its license plate, plus step-by-step curbside pickup directions.
No need to stress. We’ll message you the moment your flight touches down. If we don’t hear back quickly, the driver will automatically make his way to the international arrivals hall. Wait there and we’ll locate you; we never leave anyone stranded.
On domestic flights, we allow up to 60 minutes of waiting after arrival.
On international flights, the courtesy window stretches to 120 minutes.
For hotel pickups, there’s a 15-minute grace window.
For port pickups, we hold up to 60 minutes beyond the scheduled time.
This is uncommon, given that two complimentary hours of waiting are already built in. If you remain inside the airport past that point, the ride can be treated as a no-show. You may also ask for more waiting time, priced at US$ 30 for every additional 30-minute block, paid in cash straight to the driver.
Yes. Our drivers give a hand loading and unloading your luggage.
The standard limit is one large suitcase plus one carry-on for each traveler.
Bringing bulkier or extra items — additional suitcases, musical instruments, mobility gear, or strollers? Let us know beforehand so we can set aside the room. There may be an extra fee.
Yes. Small pets are welcome, provided they remain in a secure carrier. Please give us a heads-up in advance.
Yes. One free child car seat comes with the ride for kids under five. Need an additional seat? Request it ahead of time; it runs US$ 15.
We’d appreciate it if you didn’t eat while traveling. Only water in sealed bottles may be brought on board.
Unplanned stops aren’t part of the base fare. That said, if a short, nearby stop is set up in advance, we’ll do our best to work it in. A modest charge may apply depending on the extra time.
Yes. Give us a minimum of 24 hours’ notice and, subject to availability, we’ll move your pickup time.

despedida de soltero, primera vez arreglando un traslado anticipado, sin problemas. nos confirmaron por mensaje la noche anterior. reservaremos con antelación la próxima.
Comemorando aniversário, muito mais tranquilo que esperar na fila do táxi.
Reservé la noche anterior, mi pareja y yo, lo elegiría antes que el shuttle del hotel. el wifi funcionó, los chicos se entretuvieron en el camino. Mejor imposible.
Driver knew exactly which terminal we were at No surge, price as quoted.
Smooth ride. stress-free trip from pickup to drop-off. no waving down anyone, the car was where they said. Worth the booking.
