LPCKG Posted December 5, 2010 #1 Share Posted December 5, 2010 We are making our first trip to Miami, June 2011. Could anyone give advise on the best way to get to Sawgrass Mill. We are not planning to hire a car so need some kind of tour / or bus / or taxi. Looking for the most cost effective way?? Hope someone can help Thank in advance.

royalcruz Posted December 5, 2010 #2 Share Posted December 5, 2010 The mall is over an hour from Miami, so the most cost effective way to get there is to rent a car. I think a taxi would cost about $200 round trip with tip, depending on what part of Miami you are coming from. I don't know of any tour buses, and public buses would take a couple of hours each way with stops and transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLAHAM Posted December 5, 2010 #3 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Perhaps find another couple on your Cruise Critic Roll Call staying in Miami and share their rental car or a taxi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like we'll have to look into the hire car option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaWeezy Posted December 5, 2010 #5 Share Posted December 5, 2010 What's at Sawgrass Mall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPCKG Posted December 5, 2010 Author #6 Share Posted December 5, 2010 It's a massive shopping outlet mall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalcruz Posted December 6, 2010 #7 Share Posted December 6, 2010 What ISN'T at Sawgrass Mills Mall?!?!:D You'll find restaurants, high end and low end outlet stores, everything from JCPenny to Valentino. Within blocks you'll find most chain stores that couldn't fit inside the mall. It's so big that it has 2 food courts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanJ Posted December 6, 2010 #8 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Closer to Miami is the larger Aventura Mall (largest mall in Florida by sq footage, although fewer stores than Sawgrass). In Miami, there is also the Miami International Mall and Dolphin Mall, pretty much side by side 5 miles or so west of Miami Airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We-R-Off Posted December 8, 2010 #9 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I agree with the other cc - i wouldn't waste energy to go there, was there many years ago but it hasn't got anything more special than any other shopping outlets, save your money & time to go to somewhere nearer.

LPCKG Posted December 11, 2010 Author #10 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Thanks for the updates. I didn't realise there were so more malls close by, will certainly have fun shopping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
