A private transfer to or from MIA and Kendall West covers 18.6 miles (30.0 km) in about 31 to 45 minutes door to door, riding in a black SUV or climate-controlled van at a flat rate from $120 per vehicle. The drive follows the Dolphin Expressway (SR-836) toll road, and a bilingual driver handles the whole run curbside.
The fare is fixed per vehicle at booking and covers your whole group for the one-way ride to or from Kendall West.
Three private vehicle tiers cover this route, each reserved for your group alone.
If your group sits right at a cutoff or you are carrying extra or oversized bags, message us on WhatsApp before booking and we confirm the right size vehicle for you.
Your driver meets you curbside at MIA, ready at the pickup lane as you walk out with your bags — no app request needed. The night before, we text the driver’s name, vehicle make, and license plate with exact curbside instructions. Prefer a name sign inside the terminal? That in-terminal meet-and-greet is available as a paid add-on.
You can pay by Venmo, Zelle, or a secure payment link; card or link payments carry a 4% bank fee. Full cash payment at pickup is not accepted.
One vehicle is reserved for your party only — never a shared or pooled ride with strangers. The fare is a flat rate locked at the moment you book, so it never climbs with rush-hour demand, weather, or a busy arrival bank; the number you agree to is the number you pay. Every driver is bilingual, speaking English plus Spanish or Portuguese, which smooths the handoff whether you are a first-time visitor or a returning local. You reach a real person directly on WhatsApp to confirm details, adjust a pickup, or flag extra bags, rather than routing through an app queue. Drivers assist load and unload your luggage at both ends, and the day before your trip you receive the driver’s name, vehicle, and plate so you know exactly who is meeting you. It is a coordinated, private service built around your itinerary, not a car you scramble to summon after landing.
Kendall West is a spread-out residential suburb in southwest Miami-Dade, a census-designated place made up of quiet family neighborhoods, low-rise apartment communities, and everyday shopping plazas. It reads as practical and local rather than touristy — supermarkets, chain restaurants, schools, and parks line the main avenues, and the pace is calmer than the coastal districts. Visitors usually come to see family, attend an event, or stay near the western edge of the metro before heading elsewhere. You can review the area’s population and housing profile on the Census Bureau data page for Kendall West, and a sense of its modern rental scene shows in a residential community within the district. Our driver takes you to any specific street address, apartment complex, or business door within the area.
The area around here favors family-oriented, everyday conveniences over nightlife: big retail centers, casual and international restaurants, neighborhood parks, and open recreation areas. The broader southwest corridor keeps big-box stores and community events a short local drive out, and the quieter residential feel draws travelers wanting a base away from the packed beachfront.
Daytime hours run 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM with no surcharge. Trips that fall outside that window carry a small added charge:
The fastest, simplest way is a private door-to-door transfer booked ahead, with a black SUV or private van assigned to your group alone. After you clear the terminal, your driver is waiting curbside at MIA, helps load your bags, and heads straight west on the Dolphin Expressway (SR-836) toll road toward Kendall West. Pick the SUV for up to five people, the Sprinter van for six to nine, or the larger van for ten to fourteen. You reserve online or over WhatsApp at least a day ahead; the night before, we text your driver’s name, the vehicle make, and the license plate along with exact curbside instructions. There is no line to join and no app to open on arrival — the car is already booked in your name, so you walk out and ride. It works the same direction in reverse, with a scheduled pickup from your Kendall West address back to the airport.
The flat rate is genuinely all-in for the ride itself. It includes a bilingual driver, real-time flight tracking, and curbside pickup where the driver is ready at the curb as you exit the terminal. Tolls, SunPass, and fuel are all built into the price, so nothing is added for the SR-836 toll or the mileage. Onboard WiFi runs off a mobile hotspot, and drivers help load and unload your luggage at both ends. Small pets are welcome with advance WhatsApp notice and a pet carrier. The first child seat is free for a child under five; each additional seat carries a small fee confirmed when you book. Courtesy waiting is included — 2 hours for international arrivals, 1 hour for domestic, and 15 minutes for hotel or address pickups — with the pickup re-timed at no cost if your flight is early or delayed.
Several optional items fall outside the base rate. Being met inside the terminal with a name sign is a paid extra beyond the standard curbside pickup. Extra child seats past the first, plus any oversized or additional luggage needing a bigger vehicle, get confirmed with you beforehand. Waiting past the included courtesy window bills in 30-minute blocks. Food, drinks, and driver gratuity are excluded; tipping is optional and always appreciated. Only sealed bottled water may come aboard, and unplanned stops are not part of a short local trip — though a quick nearby stop set up in advance can sometimes be arranged.
Yes — reserve at least 24 hours ahead for the smoothest booking, online or on WhatsApp, and we confirm the vehicle for your date and time. Under-24-hour requests are still reviewed manually, though availability is not guaranteed. A booked pickup time can be moved with 24+ hours notice, subject to availability. We operate 24/7, year-round.
A better-organized, premium ride — fixed price, an assigned driver, and a pickup timed to your flight — for a significantly lower overall price than Uber Black or Lyft Lux.

A single reservation and one synchronized pickup, at a significantly lower price than a surging Uber Black or Lyft Lux.
Uber, Uber Black, Lyft, and Lyft Lux are the trademarks of their respective holders. We have no affiliation with, sponsorship from, or endorsement by any of them. The comparison draws on publicly available pricing as of 2026.
The rate is per vehicle, not per person — your entire group rides for the one flat price listed above, whether that is two passengers or a full van. Nothing is charged head by head. A round trip is simply double the one-way, and a small surcharge applies only for pickups outside the 7 AM to 9 PM daytime window.
The Kendall West run covers 18.6 miles (30.0 km) and takes about 31 minutes when roads are clear. During morning and evening rush, that stretches toward 45 minutes door to door, so the honest window is 31 to 45 minutes depending on when you travel. The drive stays almost entirely on the Dolphin Expressway (SR-836) toll road heading west out of the airport, a straightforward corridor with no complicated transfers. Midday and late-evening departures typically land at the shorter end of the range, while weekday rush hours and heavy arrival banks push it longer. Because the toll road is already included in your rate and the driver watches your flight, a late landing or a slow bag carousel does not change what you pay or leave you waiting for a car. If you have a tight onward plan from Kendall West, tell us your target time on WhatsApp and we build the pickup around it.
The standard allowance is 1 checked bag plus 1 carry-on per passenger, and drivers help load and unload at both ends. Carrying extra or oversized bags? Message us on WhatsApp in advance and we confirm the space or size you up to a larger private van, so a heavier load is easy to plan around rather than a hard cutoff.
Your driver tracks the inbound flight in real time and re-times the pickup automatically at no extra cost, whether you land early or late. Courtesy waiting is included — 2 hours for international arrivals, 1 hour for domestic, and 15 minutes for hotel pickups — so a slow customs line or bag carousel will not cost you the car.

Aim for a full day — 24 hours — before pickup. Around holidays and packed weekends, the sooner you reserve, the more vehicle options we can hold for you.
Of course. Bookings come in from every corner of the world; international payments are no problem, and updates reach you over WhatsApp and email.
We operate on advance reservations only. Four hours ahead is the practical minimum, and a same-day slot depends entirely on availability — it can’t be promised.
A part-payment locks your reservation: 50% when the total is under $199 USD, and 30% once it reaches $200 USD or more.
Not fully. The vehicle is secured with a 50% deposit sent by Zelle or our payment link; whatever remains can be handed to the driver in cash on arrival.
Not at all — hotels, cruise ports, train stations, restaurants and private homes are all regular stops for us.
The fleet runs from XL SUVs for small parties to 12- and 14-seat vans, plus full-size buses holding 40 to 54 riders — a fit for big events.
Gladly — weddings, corporate conferences, VIP outings and similar events all get a tailored quote; just message us.
Part of the fleet carries Wi-Fi and USB outlets. Flag it when booking if you depend on either, and we’ll assign a vehicle that has both.
Never — every transfer is private. The vehicle belongs to your group alone from pickup to drop-off.
Relax: we follow your flight live and slide the pickup to match, with no fee for the adjustment.
Send over the new details the moment you have them; we update the booking and keep watching the revised flight.
Standard pickup is curbside — text your exit door and the car pulls up within minutes, typically faster than a sign-holder. An in-terminal greeting with your name on a sign is available for $20 if you prefer it.
A day ahead you receive the driver’s name, the vehicle model and its plate number, plus step-by-step curbside instructions.
Stay calm — a message goes out to you as soon as your plane touches down. No quick reply? The driver walks to the international arrivals hall to look for you there. Nobody gets left behind.
Sixty minutes after a domestic landing, a two-hour courtesy on international arrivals, 15 minutes at hotels, and up to an hour past the agreed time at the port.
With two free hours already included it’s rare, but beyond that the trip can be treated as a no-show. Extra waiting can be added at US$ 30 per additional 30-minute block, paid in cash directly to the driver.
Yes — loading and unloading your bags is part of the driver’s job.
One large case plus one carry-on per rider is standard. Extra suitcases, instruments, mobility gear or strollers? Tell us beforehand so the right space is set aside; a supplement may apply.
Small pets ride happily — inside a secure carrier — as long as you mention them ahead of time.
One seat for a child under five comes free; additional seats are US$ 15 each when requested in advance.
Please hold the food for later — only sealed bottled water is fine during the ride.
They’re not part of the base fare, but a brief nearby stop arranged beforehand can usually be worked in; a small time-based fee may apply.
Sure — with at least 24 hours’ warning we’ll re-slot it, subject to availability.
None — the quote is the final figure. Tipping the driver is optional, always appreciated, never required.
