A private Black SUV covers the route between MIA Airport and Bay Harbor Islands in roughly 15 to 25 minutes along I-95, for a fixed rate starting at $80 per vehicle. Larger parties of 6 to 14 travel together in a private, climate-controlled van. Reserve in advance with your flight number and your driver will be waiting the moment you touch down.
Pick the private vehicle class that matches your party — there are three for this route:
Four things set the service apart, and not one of them is an upsell. First is the price: a flat per-vehicle rate that is fixed at booking and never climbs with traffic, demand, or time on the road. Second is the driver, who speaks English along with Spanish or Portuguese — a real assist when you’re arranging a pickup by message just after landing. Third is the vehicle, held for your group alone, with no strangers beside you and no waiting for a car to fill up. Fourth is the contact: you message us directly on WhatsApp, and whoever answers is the same person coordinating your driver — no call center, no ticket queue, no bot. All four are standard on every booking, whatever the vehicle size.
Your group size decides the vehicle — all three classes below deliver the same service, differing only in seating.
A private car booked ahead is the most direct way to make the trip. You reserve before departure, a specific driver is assigned to your arrival, and the ride begins as soon as your bags are loaded — no counter to hunt for, no queue to join, and no puzzling over an unfamiliar transit map while juggling luggage. Whether you take the Black SUV or one of the private vans, the process is the same: greet the driver, load up, and head straight to your address on the islands — hotel, home, or office. Return trips work in reverse: pickup at your Bay Harbor Islands address and drop-off at your airline’s terminal entrance at MIA.
Right at the curb, just outside your baggage claim exit — curbside pickup comes with every fare. The driver is stationed there as you step out, helps with your bags, and you’re moving within minutes of leaving the terminal. No parking garage to cross, no distant lot to locate.
No app, no account, no download. Bookings are handled person to person over WhatsApp, phone, or email, and the very chat thread you book in is the one that reaches us on travel day. Nothing to install, nothing to update, no profile to set up at the airport.
Under typical traffic, roughly 15 to 25 minutes of driving separate MIA from Bay Harbor Islands. Early-morning, midday, and late-evening runs tend to fall near the low end of that range, while weekday rush hours and event traffic push it toward the high end. Allow a bit extra on the airport side for deplaning, baggage claim, and the walk to the curb — those minutes belong to the airport, not the road. Your driver makes every routing call in real time, so you never have to watch a map, choose a crossing, or give directions.
There’s no single set mileage for this trip — the exact distance depends on the routing your driver chooses that day. By Miami standards it’s a short hop, and it’s traffic, not mileage, that decides how long you’re in the car. That’s why we quote time rather than distance.
Yes — the standard allowance is one checked bag plus one carry-on per passenger, and both the SUV and the vans are sized so that allowance rides in the cargo area rather than on anyone’s lap. Packing heavier? Message us on WhatsApp before your trip with what you’re bringing, and we’ll confirm the room or arrange a larger van so it all travels in one vehicle. We handle extra or oversized bags this way all the time — it’s a quick message, not a problem.
The per-vehicle rate covers the entire trip, with nothing tacked on afterward for a standard daytime pickup.
Three items can add to the base rate, and each is confirmed before you ride. Pickups that start outside daytime hours carry the night surcharge listed near the end of this page. Child seats follow a single rule: the first is free for a child under 5, and each additional seat has a fee confirmed at booking. The in-terminal meet-and-greet — a name sign inside the terminal instead of the standard curb meeting — is an optional paid add-on.
Payment breaks into two easy parts — half at booking, half on the day.
Daytime service between 7:00 AM and 9:00 PM has no surcharge. Trips that start outside that window — red-eye arrivals, pre-dawn runs to make an early flight — add a small amount to the base rate:
Bay Harbor Islands ranks among greater Miami’s most peaceful upscale addresses: shaded residential streets, low-rise apartment buildings, and waterfront homes, moving at a pace far calmer than the more famous beach districts. Kane Concourse, the town’s main street, is home to its boutiques, galleries, cafés, and professional offices. Visitors pick the area because it sits right beside the oceanfront communities of Bal Harbour and Surfside while keeping the crowds at a distance. The official Bay Harbor Islands neighborhood guide covers the town’s dining, shopping, and waterfront character in more depth.
Luxury shopping, beach time, and quiet waterfront dining are the area’s biggest draws. Nearby Bal Harbour is famous for high-end open-air shopping, Surfside for its laid-back Atlantic beachfront, and the islands themselves for the galleries and restaurants along Kane Concourse. Most visitors use the town as a calm home base and branch out from there.
Yes — it fits guests who want the beach without staying in the thick of the nightlife. The town stays residential and quiet after dark, the oceanfront is right next door in Surfside and Bal Harbour, and the busier attractions of Miami Beach are within easy reach whenever you want them.
Yes — advance booking is exactly how the service is designed to work, and it’s the only way to lock in the precise vehicle and time slot you want. Reserving ahead matters most in three cases: pre-dawn departures, when any ride is hard to find on short notice; the 10-to-14-passenger van, which serves one group at a time; and holiday weekends, when demand outstrips the fleet. Once your reservation is confirmed, the vehicle is held for your slot however busy the day gets. Last-minute requests are still worth sending — if a vehicle is open, it’s yours — but only an advance booking carries a guarantee.
Nothing you need to fix — drivers monitor inbound flights in real time, so your pickup follows the plane, not the clock. If your arrival slips an hour, the driver knows before you’ve even left the runway. There’s no call to place and no rebooking to do; the pickup simply shifts.
Our idea of a “shuttle” is a private van — never a shared one — and pricing is per vehicle, not per seat. The van rates in the price list at the top of this page cover the whole vehicle, so the per-person cost falls as your group grows. Every ride is yours alone, door to door.
Yes. Beyond point-to-point transfers, the same vehicles and drivers are available as a private hourly chauffeur service with a five-hour minimum — handy for a day of meetings, a shopping circuit, or touring with a driver who waits between stops. Ask about hourly availability when you message us.
Yes — drop-offs can go anywhere: other airports, cruise terminals, or cities throughout South Florida. Airport and seaport pickups, though, run only from MIA and PortMiami. A trip that starts at any Bay Harbor Islands address can end wherever you need, including a departure from another airport.
A more coordinated, premium service — flat fare, named driver, flight-tracked pickup — at a much lower total cost than Uber Black or Lyft Lux.

This rarely happens, since we already include two free hours of wait time. If you’re still inside the airport after that, the ride may be marked as a no-show. You can request additional wait time — US$ 30 per extra 30-minute block, paid in cash to the driver.
Absolutely — our drivers will assist with your luggage.

Of course. Give us at least 24 hours’ notice and, subject to availability, we’ll adjust your pickup time.
