This is a terminal-to-door private transfer to or from Port of Miami and AC Miami Hotel Downtown & Element Miami Downtown — about 2.4 miles and 13–15 minutes along US-1 and Port Boulevard — booked in advance at a flat rate from $100 per vehicle, with a bilingual chauffeur and full luggage assistance included.
Each rate below covers the whole vehicle one way, to or from the cruise terminals — never per person, never surge-priced.
Book the ride before you dock and disembarkation becomes the easy part: your reserved black SUV meets you at the terminal and runs straight to AC Miami Hotel Downtown & Element Miami Downtown, no stops.
Your driver follows US-1 and Port Boulevard for the 2.4-mile hop and drops the group at the entrance, bags carried to the curb beside you.
Families come off the ships every week — the car seat side is handled:
Brickell rises just south of the Miami River — banking towers, rooftop restaurants, and Brickell City Centre — and sits only a couple of bridges from the cruise terminals.
The hotel side — amenities, luggage holds, early check-in — is covered at Element official site.
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 AC Miami Hotel Downtown & Element Miami Downtown is next.
It feels closer to riding with friends than hailing a car — better service, personal and organized, with the vehicle reserved for your group alone.
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 US-1 and Port Boulevard does the rest.
The flat rate is honest because its edges are clear — these are not included:
Courtesy wait time is included on every booking:
Payment stays flexible while the reservation stays firm:
Guests here often fit in Brickell City Centre and Mary Brickell Village once they land ashore, with Simpson Park and the Miami River also nearby in Brickell.
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.
For the whole vehicle. The flat rate above covers your entire group one way — it does not increase per passenger.
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.
Ships sail on their own clock — pickups outside the 7:00 AM–9:00 PM window carry a small surcharge:
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.
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.

Send the date, group size, and your ship and we confirm the vehicle to AC Miami Hotel Downtown & Element Miami Downtown with the pickup staged around your arrival.

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