This is a terminal-to-door private transfer to or from Port of Miami and The Barefoot Suites — about 230.4 miles and 229–239 minutes along Florida’s Turnpike — booked in advance at a flat rate from $550 per vehicle, with a bilingual chauffeur and full luggage assistance included.
Pricing is flat and per vehicle for the one-way run — the group travels together for a single locked fare, tolls and fuel included.
Skip the taxi line and the luggage-on-the-sidewalk scramble — reserve a private SUV in advance and the terminal pickup is planned around your ship, not around app availability.
The chauffeur loads the bags at the terminal curb and takes Florida’s Turnpike, so the roughly 230.4 miles to The Barefoot Suites is a single, direct leg.
Ships rarely clear all passengers at one exact minute, so the pickup is planned around your ship’s arrival with the included 30-minute wait absorbing customs and the luggage hall — you walk out, the vehicle is there, and The Barefoot Suites is next.
South of Disney, Kissimmee lines the Irlo Bronson Highway with resorts and pool-home communities, with Lake Toho’s airboats nearby.
The hotel side — amenities, luggage holds, early check-in — is covered at The Barefoot Suites’s official page.
Families come off the ships every week — the car seat side is handled:
A few things sit outside the fare, so you can plan for them:
Courtesy wait time is included on every booking:
Count on roughly 229–239 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 Florida’s Turnpike does the rest.
It feels closer to riding with friends than hailing a car — a higher level of service, personal and organized, with the vehicle reserved for your group alone.
US-192 / Irlo Bronson Highway and Old Town Kissimmee sit within easy reach of the stay, with Lake Tohopekaliga and Gatorland also nearby in Kissimmee.
Reserving is simple: half now, half on the day, and a fair cancellation window.
Docked in the morning with an evening flight — or in town early? Our private hourly tours run from the port with your luggage stored securely in the vehicle the whole time.
On a run this long the difference between a packed shuttle and your own vehicle is the whole day: you set the departure, the pace, and the playlist.
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:
An app assigns whoever is nearby, in whatever car they drive, at whatever the surge says. A reservation assigns a specific vehicle to your group at a fixed fare, staged for your ship’s arrival — a different product for a morning when everyone leaves at once.
After a week at sea, certainty beats convenience-on-demand: the reservation carries a built-in wait window, luggage help at the curb, and a driver who has run these terminals hundreds of times.

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.

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.
