Port of Miami to FLL....post cruise transportation

[muladybug]

I've tried doing a search but haven't found an answer.

 

Will there be plenty of shuttle vans available when we get off the ship, going to FLL, or do I have to reserve transportation? There will be 8 of us, and we'd rather not use RCCL's shuttle.

 

Thanks.

I posted this before, but...here goes one more time!

 

There were 9 of us traveling. We used Tri-Country to get to the Port of Miami from FLL. This proved VERY easy as they are located right outside baggage claim, and had a van large enough for all of us and our luggage.

 

Getting back from the Port to FLL was a bit more of a challange. Tri-County could not set up a return trip for us, even though on the phone they had said this would not be a problem, (it has something to do with Port rules and regulations).

 

We used Manolito Tours and Shuttles. The contact is Manuel Acosta.

His phone #'s are: 305-282-4626; 305-229-5063

His e-mail address: anelymano@aol.com

 

He was phenomenal! We set up for him to pick us up before we left on the cruise. He called in the morning, on my cell phone after our cruise to let me know that he was at the Port. He had a sign with our family's name on it, (a big thrill for our kids!!) He was parked very close and away we went.

 

I told him I would post on Cruise Critic as his service was so good. He charged $18 per person. Good luck! Have a great cruise!

We are considering renting a car from FLL to Miami Intl and then take a shuttle from MIA to the port. On the return trip, we would take a shuttle to MIA to rent a car for our trip down to Key West.

I'm not sure you made your decision yet, but we used SAS Transportation on our recent cruise on the Radiance. Steve was prompt, courteous & very reasonable. Here is his info: Steven Sadowsky, SAS Transportation 954-600-0240 or email him @ SAS9897@aol.com

 

Good luck.
