South Beach Has Something for Everyone
South Beach is the perfect place to watch people and be seen. You’ll be mesmerized by the clear, aqua-blue waters as you walk along the shore. Along Ocean Drive, paralleling the beach, you can admire the art deco hotels, peek in colorful boutiques, and dine in open-air restaurants. Swim, bike, skate, and shop - you can do it all at South Beach.
Charter Bus Dropoff and Pickup at South Beach
Your professional Miami shuttle bus driver can drop off your group at various stops and arrange to pick you up when you’re ready. Since parking in the area is super restricted, you’ll appreciate this convenience. One popular starting point is Lummus Park, stretching from 5th to 15th streets.

Make Waves at the Miami Beach Convention Center
The expansive Miami Beach Convention Center features a nautically inspired facade and housing the largest Grand Ballroom in South Florida.

Its proximity to beachside hotels, fine restaurants, and other attractions make it a super choice for large meetings and conventions.
Charter Bus Dropoff and Pickup at Miami Convention Center
Certain entrances on Washington Avenue, such as 1750 Washington Avenue and 2000 Washington Avenue, are ideal for charter bus passenger dropoffs. The latter is best for wheelchair access.
You will need to contact the Center or check the website for updates on specific dropoff points during your particular event. Due to heavy traffic in the area, it is advisable to plan for delays when scheduling pickup from your hotel, the airport, or other pickup point.
There is designated parking for charter buses and shuttle buses on site at the Convention Center. However, charter buses may be rerouted to offsite lots when there is greater demand.
Set Sail at PortMiami Cruise Terminal
PortMiami is the world’s largest passenger port for cruise ships, serving nearly 10 million passengers a year. It is also a major hub for cargo, much of it sent to and from Latin America and the Caribbean.
Charter Bus Dropoff and Pickup at PortMiami
Your Miami charter bus rental can pick up your group or drop you off at designated passenger dropoff areas just outside specific cruise terminals. Your driver will just follow the signs for “Cruise Ships” or “Cruise Terminals” and proceed to that zone. The day and time of your scheduled pickup or dropoff can make a huge difference in how long it takes to get through Miami traffic. Traveling at midday during off-season when there are no special event backups can be a breeze. Otherwise, add extra time in your schedule for traffic congestion.
Passenger charter buses must possess a Miami-Dade County Certificate of Transportation, and also as PortMIami Ground Transportation Permit, to operate at the port.

Charter Bus Dropoff and Pickup in Little Havana
Calle Ocho, or 8th Street, which is the main thoroughfare through the neighborhood, has several convenient charter bus dropoff points and some are located near important landmarks. Temporary parking for purposes of loading and unloading is permitted; however, Little Havana is a densely populated community, so parking within its boundaries is highly limited.
There may be bus parking available at Lot 82, behind Domino Park next to Domino Plaza on the corner of SW 8th Street and 15th Avenue, a convenient starting point for your group’s adventure.
Otherwise, your driver may park further away at a downtown Miami lot.

Common FAQs About Miami Charter Bus Rentals
How far in advance should we book a Miami charter bus rental?
You should reserve your Miami charter bus rental at least two to three months in advance of your group’s travel date. Even so, if there is a special festival, concert, or game coming up in Miami or South Florida, demand for charter buses can significantly increase. To ensure you can get the vehicle of your choice at the best rate, book early.
What do we do if our bus is delayed?
Miami traffic congestion can be worse on game days, holidays, weekends, and when major concerts or shows are in town. This can cause unexpected slowdowns and backups any time of day or night, and especially near major venues. Your Miami charter bus driver will get in touch with you if any such delay occurs that will impact your scheduled pickup or dropoff time.
Who pays for shuttle bus parking fees?
Parking fees are not included in the initial price quote for your bus rental, and you will be responsible for confirming and paying for any necessary bus parking. Parking fees at various larger venues in Miami can vary wildly, as parking options may shift on special event days and pricing can change as a result. Parking fees may depend on the size of the vehicle. This is why it is crucial to contact the venue in advance to get parking information and, in many cases, pay for parking in advance.
What if our concert, game, or event lasts longer than expected - can we delay our pickup time?
Our first priority is to meet the agreed-upon schedule. But, as soon as you know you would like to delay your pickup time, contact your driver. There may be overtime charges, but this depends on what is written in your contract. This is why it’s smart to add more time in your pickup and dropoff schedule to cover this kind of unexpected delay.
What if our group wants to spend a day at Everglades National Park or Zoo Miami? Or, what if we are attending a show at Fillmore Miami Beach, Knight Concert Hall, or FPL Solar Amphitheater? Will our charter bus take us to any of these places?
The answer is a 100% yes! With a Miami charter bus rental you get personalized transportation to fit your desires, not the other way around. Just identify your preferred destinations and time frame, and we’ll help you create an itinerary that fits your needs. Whether it’s a nightclub or rooftop lounge, a hiking trail or hotel, we will get you there safely and on your schedule.
