A private transfer to or from MIA and Goulds covers 24.9 miles (40.1 km) in about 35–61 minutes door to door, off-peak to peak, in a black SUV at a flat rate from $250 per vehicle. Your chauffeur drives it via Florida’s Turnpike Thru Lanes and SR-836, tracks your inbound flight, and meets your group curbside at Miami International Airport (MIA).
The price is per vehicle, not per person, and it is locked the moment you book — pick the size that fits your group and everyone rides for one rate.
Goulds is a low-key, largely residential community in south Miami-Dade, set among the tropical nurseries, small businesses, and open agricultural land that define this stretch below the city. The pace is quiet and suburban, with local shops and everyday errands strung along the nearby US-1 corridor rather than high-rise density. Travelers here are often visiting family, working a nearby job site, or passing through toward the Redland farm country and the southern reaches of the county. The neighborhood shares its name with a well-known industrial pump maker; you can read about that brand at ITT Goulds industrial pumps and its water-technology line at Goulds Water Technology. Whatever brings you down, we handle the arrival end so you land, meet your driver, and go.
The flat rate covers the private vehicle, a bilingual driver, and every toll — SunPass and fuel are already built in, so nothing is added on the road. Flight tracking comes standard, and the curbside pickup is included: the driver is at the curb when you exit. Onboard WiFi runs off a mobile hotspot. Courtesy waiting is built in at 2 hours for international arrivals, 1 hour for domestic, and 15 minutes for hotel pickups, with the pickup re-timed free when a flight lands early or late. Luggage is 1 checked bag plus 1 carry-on per passenger, and drivers load and unload for you.
A few add-ons sit outside the base fare. An in-terminal meet-and-greet with a name sign is an optional paid upgrade over the included curbside pickup. The first child seat is free for a child under 5; each additional seat carries a small fee confirmed at booking. Card or payment-link transactions add a 4% bank fee. After the courtesy waiting window closes, extra time is billed in 30-minute blocks. Extra or oversized bags are welcome — message us in advance on WhatsApp and we confirm the space or size you up to a larger van. Small pets travel with advance notice in a carrier.
Nothing on your end. The driver tracks your inbound flight in real time, so a delay or an early landing simply re-times the pickup at no extra cost. Courtesy waiting is already built in — 2 hours for international arrivals, 1 hour for domestic — so your car is there whenever you actually clear the terminal.
The included pickup is curbside: your driver watches the flight and is waiting at the curb outside your terminal when you exit with your bags. The day before, you receive the driver’s name, vehicle make, and license plate. If you prefer to be met inside with a name sign, that meet-and-greet is an optional paid upgrade.
The standard allowance is 1 checked bag plus 1 carry-on per passenger, and the driver loads and unloads everything for you. Traveling with extra or oversized bags? Message us on WhatsApp before the trip and we confirm the space or size your group up to a larger private van — it is rarely a problem.
Yes. The first child seat is free for a child under 5, and we fit it before pickup so your family is set on arrival. Each additional seat carries a small fee confirmed at booking. Just tell us the ages and number of seats when you reserve so the right hardware is ready in the vehicle.
A private van to Goulds is priced per vehicle, not per person, so your whole group rides for the one rate shown in the price list above — a 6-to-9-seat van and a 10-to-14-seat van each have their own fixed fare. A round trip is double the one-way, and a small surcharge applies outside 7 AM–9 PM.
A more coordinated, premium service — flat fare, named driver, flight-tracked pickup — at a significantly lower total cost than Uber Black or Lyft Lux.

One booking, one coordinated pickup, significantly lower cost than an Uber Black or Lyft Lux surge.

Payment runs through Venmo, Zelle, or a secure payment link; card and link payments carry a 4% bank fee, and full cash payment at pickup is not accepted. For a pickup on the Miami side, a 50% deposit confirms the booking and the remaining 50% is paid to the driver on trip day — cash is fine for that half. Some reverse-direction pickups from farther-out areas are set up for full payment in advance instead. A round trip is simply double the one-way price. Cancellations made 24 or more hours before pickup are fully refunded; inside 24 hours the booking is non-refundable. Book at least 24 hours ahead when you can; shorter-notice requests are still reviewed by hand, though availability is not guaranteed.
The vehicle is reserved for your party alone — you never share the ride, and you never wait on another passenger’s schedule. The rate is flat and locked at booking, so traffic, weather, or demand cannot change it. Your driver is bilingual, speaking English plus Spanish or Portuguese, which smooths arrival for international travelers. Because we track your inbound flight, an early landing or a delay simply re-times the pickup rather than costing you a missed car. Drivers help load and unload every bag at the curb, and you reach a real person directly over WhatsApp for any change before or during the trip. We run 24/7, year-round, with more than five years moving travelers to or from MIA and Goulds.
Daytime service runs 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM with no surcharge. Trips scheduled outside that window carry a modest add-on that varies by vehicle size.
The drive takes about 35 minutes when roads are clear and up to 61 minutes at peak, a spread of roughly 26 minutes driven almost entirely by traffic. Off-peak — early mornings, late evenings, most weekends — the southbound run moves freely. Weekday rush and holiday-weekend volume tighten the same corridor, so a mid-afternoon pickup can sit near the longer end of that window. Because your driver monitors live conditions and your flight status, the pickup is timed to your actual landing, not a guess. If your itinerary is tight, message us the arrival time and we build in the right cushion. The flat fare does not change whichever end of the range your particular trip lands on.
Three private tiers cover almost any party size, each reserved for your group only.
The simplest way is a private door-to-door transfer booked ahead, with the vehicle sized to your group and the fare fixed before you travel. A black SUV handles up to 5 passengers; a private Sprinter van takes 6 to 9, and a larger van seats 10 to 14. After you send your flight number, the driver watches the arrival in real time and is ready at the curb when you walk out of the terminal — no app to open, no line to join. The route drops south out of the airport onto Florida’s Turnpike Thru Lanes and SR-836, then continues toward the Goulds area of south Miami-Dade. To book, message us with your flight details, passenger count, and destination address; the day before your journey you receive the driver’s name, vehicle make, and license plate along with exact curbside instructions.
Send your flight number, passenger count, and Goulds address over WhatsApp or email, and we confirm the vehicle and lock your fare. The day before travel you get your driver’s name, vehicle, and plate with curbside instructions. Book 24 hours ahead when you can; shorter-notice requests are still reviewed by hand.
