Miami & Fort Lauderdale Cruise Ship Transportation

The Pinnacle of Safety, Service, and Satisfaction

Miami & Fort Lauderdale Cruise Ship Transfers

Miami and Fort Lauderdale are gateways to some of the world’s most popular cruise destinations. Imperial Transportation provides reliable, comfortable cruise ship transportation to and from both major South Florida cruise ports, ensuring a smooth start or conclusion to your voyage. Whether you sail from PortMiami or Port Everglades, we handle every cruise port transfer with punctuality and care, so your onshore travel is as seamless as your time at sea. From a private sedan for a couple to a coach for a full tour group, every transfer is chauffeured, flat-rated, and tracked from door to terminal.

PortMiami Cruise Transportation & Terminal Transfers

As one of the world’s premier cruise ports, PortMiami launches countless Caribbean and Bahamas voyages every week for lines including Royal Caribbean, Carnival, MSC, Norwegian, and Virgin Voyages. Our chauffeurs know every PortMiami terminal and deliver you directly to your cruise line’s drop-off point, with luggage assistance from the vehicle to the porters. For embarkation day we confirm your terminal and boarding window in advance and build in the right buffer for downtown Miami and MacArthur Causeway traffic, so you board on time and stress-free. Returning from your cruise, your chauffeur meets you after disembarkation for a smooth transfer to your Miami hotel, South Beach, Brickell, or the airport.

Port Everglades (Fort Lauderdale) Cruise Transfers

Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale is one of the busiest cruise hubs in the world and the departure point for lines such as Princess, Celebrity, Holland America, and Silversea. It is also where much of our cruise transfer demand begins. We provide dedicated Fort Lauderdale cruise transfers and shuttle service for cruise passengers, from single couples to large groups, connecting Port Everglades with FLL and MIA airports, Fort Lauderdale and Miami hotels, and Las Olas Boulevard. Because Port Everglades sits just minutes from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, tight arrivals are our specialty. Terminal-specific drop-off, real-time flight tracking on airport pickups, and full luggage help come standard on every Port Everglades transfer.

Cruise Port Transfers To & From MIA & FLL Airports

Coordinating a flight with a cruise leaves no room for error, so we specialize in airport-to-port and port-to-airport cruise transfers:

  • Airport to Port: Arriving to embark, we track your flight and transfer you from Miami International Airport (MIA) or Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) straight to your terminal, so you board on time even after a delayed flight. See our Miami airport limo service for arrival details.
  • Port to Airport: Disembarking at PortMiami or Port Everglades, your chauffeur is waiting to carry you and your luggage to MIA or FLL with comfortable time to spare for your flight home.
  • Cross-port and hotel transfers: Flying into MIA but sailing from Port Everglades, or vice versa? We handle every airport-and-port combination, plus pre- and post-cruise hotel nights across Miami and Fort Lauderdale.
