A private Black SUV runs to or from MIA Airport and Bay Harbor Islands in approximately 15 to 25 minutes via I-95, at a flat rate from $80 per vehicle. Groups of 6 to 14 ride in a private, climate-controlled van instead. Book ahead with your flight number, and your driver is ready the moment you land.
Three private vehicle classes cover this route — choose the one that fits your group:
A pre-booked private car is the most direct way to make this trip. You reserve before you fly, a specific driver is assigned to your arrival, and the trip starts the moment your bags are loaded — no counter to find, no line to stand in, and no deciphering an unfamiliar transit map with luggage in hand. Whether you ride in the Black SUV or one of the private vans, the routine is identical: meet the driver, load up, and ride straight to your address on the islands, whether that’s a hotel, a residence, or an office. Departures run the same way in reverse — pickup at your Bay Harbor Islands address, drop-off at your airline’s terminal entrance at MIA.
At the curb, directly outside your baggage claim exit — curbside pickup is part of every fare. The driver is positioned there as you walk out, helps load your bags, and you’re rolling within minutes of clearing the terminal. There is no parking garage to cross and no remote lot to find.
No app, no account, no download. Reservations are handled person to person over WhatsApp, phone, or email, and the same chat thread you book in is the one that connects you to us on travel day. Nothing to install, nothing to update, no profile to create at the airport.
Approximately 15 to 25 minutes of driving separates MIA from Bay Harbor Islands under normal traffic conditions. Early-morning, midday, and late-evening trips usually land near the low end of that window, while weekday rush hours and event traffic push the ride toward the high end. Build in a little 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 handles every routing decision in real time, so you never have to watch a map, pick a crossing, or give directions.
There is no single fixed mileage for this trip — the exact distance depends on the routing your driver uses that day. It is a short hop by Miami standards, and traffic conditions, not mileage, determine how long you spend in the car. That is why we quote time, never distance.
Group size picks the vehicle — all three classes below run the identical service, just with different seat counts.
Bay Harbor Islands is one of greater Miami’s quietest upscale addresses: leafy residential streets, low-rise apartment buildings, and waterfront homes, with a pace far calmer than the better-known beach districts. Kane Concourse, the town’s main street, holds its boutiques, galleries, cafés, and professional offices. Travelers choose the area because it sits beside the oceanfront communities of Bal Harbour and Surfside while keeping the crowds at arm’s length. The official Bay Harbor Islands neighborhood guide profiles the town’s dining, shopping, and waterfront character in more detail.
Luxury shopping, beach time, and quiet waterfront dining are the area’s main draws. Neighboring Bal Harbour is known for high-end open-air shopping, Surfside for its low-key Atlantic beachfront, and the islands themselves for the galleries and restaurants along Kane Concourse. Most visitors treat the town as a calm home base and fan out from there.
Yes — it suits travelers who want the beach without sleeping in the middle of the nightlife. The town stays residential and quiet after dark, the oceanfront is next door in Surfside and Bal Harbour, and the busier attractions of Miami Beach are within easy reach whenever you want them.
Four things define the service, and none of them are upsells. First, the fare: a flat, per-vehicle rate locked when you book, which never rises with traffic, demand, or time spent on the road. Second, the driver: bilingual in English plus Spanish or Portuguese, which matters when you’re coordinating a pickup by message minutes after landing. Third, the vehicle: reserved for your group alone, with no strangers in the next seat and no waiting around for a car to fill. Fourth, the contact: you reach us directly on WhatsApp, and the person who replies is the one coordinating your driver — not a call center, not a ticket queue, not a bot. Every one of these comes standard on every booking, at every vehicle size.
The per-vehicle rate covers the full trip, with nothing added afterward for a standard daytime pickup.
Three items can add to the base rate, and each is confirmed before you ride. Pickups beginning outside daytime hours carry the night surcharge listed near the end of this page. Child seats follow one 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 rather than the standard curb meeting — is an optional paid add-on.
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, not on anyone’s lap. Traveling heavier? Message us on WhatsApp before your trip with what you’re bringing, and we’ll confirm the space or set you up with a larger van so everything travels in one vehicle. Extra or oversized bags are handled this way all the time — it’s a quick message, not a problem.
Payment splits into two simple parts — half when you book, half on the day.
Daytime service between 7:00 AM and 9:00 PM carries no surcharge. Trips that begin outside that window — red-eye arrivals, pre-dawn runs to catch an early flight — add a small amount to the base rate:
Yes — advance reservation is how the service is built to work, and it’s the only way to guarantee the exact vehicle and time slot you want. Booking ahead matters most in three situations: pre-dawn departures, when finding any ride on short notice is difficult; the 10-to-14-passenger van, which serves one group at a time; and holiday weekends, when demand runs ahead of the fleet. Once your reservation is confirmed, the vehicle is held for your slot no matter how busy the day becomes. Last-minute requests are still worth sending — if a vehicle is free, it’s yours — but only an advance booking comes with a guarantee.
Nothing you need to fix — drivers track 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 left the runway. There is no call to make and no rebooking to do; the pickup simply adjusts.
Our version 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 entire vehicle, so the per-person cost drops as your group grows. Every ride is exclusively yours, 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 — useful 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 across South Florida. Airport and seaport pickups, on the other hand, run only from MIA and PortMiami. A trip starting at any Bay Harbor Islands address can end wherever you need it to, including a departure at another airport.
A more coordinated, premium service — flat fare, named driver, flight-tracked pickup — at a significantly 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.
The standard allowance is one large suitcase plus one carry-on per person. Planning to travel with larger items or extras — more suitcases, musical instruments, mobility equipment, or strollers? Contact us in advance so we can accommodate you; an additional charge may apply.

Unscheduled stops aren’t included in the base rate, but if you arrange a short, nearby stop in advance, we can accommodate it. A small fee may apply based on the extra time.
Of course. Give us at least 24 hours’ notice and, subject to availability, we’ll adjust your pickup time.
What you see is what you pay — no hidden fees. Driver gratuity is at your discretion and always appreciated.
