Hi There,

Can anyone recommend a reliable transportation company (for 9 passengers) from FLL Airport to Miami hotel then to Port of Miami the next day? A company that doesn't put a hole in our pocket...thank you!

The easiest way to get from FLL to Miami is to just use the GO Airport Shuttle. The desk is in the middle of the baggage claim area. You do not even need to book in advance. A shared shuttle is $15 pp. We booked with them for a Private shuttle for 5, ($25 pp) and it was $126.50 which included the tip. You can book in advance on the website or just walk up to the podium. You are then directed to the podium outside. We were in our vehicle within 5 min of collecting our bags. We also booked them for pick up at the pier after the cruise. I believe it was $145 for 7 people.

 

A taxi is easy from hotel to port. I would not bother with a shuttle service. The bell guy quickly got us a van taxi for the 7 of us for around $35. A shuttle would charge you at least $15 pp not including tip.

 

Shuttle services we have used in the past and often recommended here is SAS, MJS, QLS. Tip will be additional and sometimes they charge extra after 5:00 pm or so. Some will not deliver to hotels.

Thank you...we are arriving one day prior. Will they take us to our Miami hotel? What is their website?

I would agree with the earlier response about a taxi from the hotel to the port. We stayed at the Embassy Suites near the airport. Our party of 5 would have cost $75 to the port. We were able to all squeeze into a cab for $28 plus a $10 tip. It will definitely take 2 taxis for a party of 9 though.

Thank you...I think we got a quote for $55 not including tips from hotel to POM, which I think our hotel is quite close to the port.
