How to arrange travel from port back to a hotel...Miami

[2preschoolers]

Many hotels I've called said that they will drop off at the port of Miami but are not able to wait after a cruise to pick back up. So how do you get back to a hotel afterwards? Do you have to pre-arrange a shuttle service somehow or can you just grab a taxi when you get off the ship? ALSO - there will be 7 of us (5 adults, 2 kids) - are there any van-type taxi's or would we need to take 2 taxi's?? THANKS!

Just take a taxi. They are plentiful and you'll see a long line of them once you leave the port terminal, just like at the airport. Also, for a party of your size, take one of the mini van taxis.

Cabs are generally quicker and more convenient than hotel shuttles, even when the latter are offered between the hotel and the port. With five adults, two kids and luggage, you are going to need two cabs even with mini-vans.

Thanks! So a mini-van taxi will not hold all of us? And are the min-van types plentiful or not so much? And last, approx how much is it one-way from the port to the Miami hotels?

 

THANKS!

Taxis will run around $15 from port to downtown hotels, but depending on where in Miami you are staying the fares could go to $25 toward the airport.

"Many" hotels? I take it you've inquired about hotels by the airport then, yes? Downtown hotels to not shuttle to the POM. As stated, you're looking at at least $25.00 + tip for each cab and yes, you'll need two.
