Getting Around Miami

Miami is one of United States's most popular destinations, welcoming millions of visitors through airports like Miami International and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood. While public transport exists, navigating an unfamiliar city with luggage after a flight can be stressful—especially if you don't speak the local language.

Airport Transfer Options

From Miami International, you have several options to reach Miami city center:

  • Private Transfer: Door-to-door service with driver waiting in arrivals. Most comfortable and convenient option.
  • Shared Shuttle: Budget-friendly option with multiple stops. Takes longer but saves money.
  • Airport Taxi: Available on-demand but often more expensive than pre-booked transfers.
  • Public Transport: Cheapest but requires navigation with luggage.

Why Pre-Book?

Pre-booking your Miami transfer guarantees a fixed price, eliminates queue times, and ensures a professional driver knows you're coming. If your flight is delayed, the driver waits—no extra charge for standard delays.

Tips for Miami Visitors

  • Book transfers at least 24 hours in advance for best availability
  • Request child seats if traveling with young children
  • Have your confirmation details saved offline
  • Tip drivers if you received excellent service (not mandatory but appreciated)

Miami Transfer FAQs

MIA or Fort Lauderdale—which airport is better for reaching South Beach?
MIA is much closer: 13km, about 20-30 minutes across the MacArthur Causeway. FLL is 43km north and takes 40-60 minutes on I-95. If Spirit or JetBlue offer a cheap FLL fare, budget an extra $25-30 for the longer transfer.
I'm boarding a cruise at PortMiami—how close is the airport?
PortMiami is on Dodge Island, just 10km from MIA (15-20 minutes). It's one of the shortest airport-to-cruise-port transfers in the world. Drivers drop you at your cruise line's check-in entrance.
Miami traffic is notoriously bad—when should I avoid transferring?
The I-95 corridor is worst weekdays 7:30-9:30 AM and 4:30-7:00 PM. The causeways to Miami Beach can also jam on Friday evenings and during events (Art Basel, Ultra). Early morning and late evening transfers are smooth.
