Services & Private Transportation
5 questions
What transportation services are available?
We arrange private airport transfers, cruise transportation, executive black car service, hourly chauffeur bookings, corporate transportation, weddings, private tours, special events, group travel and long-distance journeys.
Services cover Miami International Airport (MIA), Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), PortMiami, hotels, private residences, business districts and event venues throughout South Florida.
Each reservation is planned around your itinerary, passenger count, luggage and vehicle requirements.
What is the difference between a private car service and a limousine service?
Private car service generally refers to pre-booked transportation in an executive sedan, luxury SUV or similar passenger vehicle.
Limousine service is a broader category that includes luxury chauffeured transportation for airport transfers, business travel and special occasions.
The vehicle is selected according to your requirements. An executive sedan may suit a business traveller, while a family with several suitcases may prefer a full-size SUV.
What is the difference between an airport transfer and an hourly chauffeur service?
An airport transfer covers a specific journey between the airport and your destination.
Hourly chauffeur service provides a vehicle and driver for an agreed period, making it suitable for multiple stops, business meetings, shopping, sightseeing and events.
For example, an executive attending meetings in Brickell, Downtown Miami and Coral Gables can arrange one continuous chauffeur booking rather than several separate transfers.
Can I book a one-way or round-trip transfer?
Yes. Both one-way and round-trip transportation are available.
You can arrange a single airport pickup, a return journey or multiple transfers as part of the same reservation.
For itineraries involving extended waiting or several destinations, hourly chauffeur service may be more suitable.
Do you provide transportation outside Miami?
Yes. Service covers Miami-Dade and Broward counties, including Miami Beach, Aventura, Bal Harbour, Sunny Isles Beach, Coral Gables and Fort Lauderdale.
Long-distance transportation is also available, including private transfers to Key Largo and other destinations in the Florida Keys.
