    Like a lot of people, I found this place to be deceptive (aka. flat out thieving) with their…read morepricing. Took a cab from the airport when our Lyft driver could not find us after circling for 10 minutes and eventually canceling the $25 ride to our hotel 11 miles away. This cab was sitting right across the entrance from where we were standing, so we hopped in. There are signs posted in the cab and on the tablet in the backseat stating how their pricing works, which I appreciate, and I did the math multiple times in my head and on my phone, while using my GPS to ensure that we were heading toward the actual hotel (I'm a relatively young woman in a strange city, I'm overly cautious). 11 miles, exactly as expected, and he followed the exact 11 mile route. Cool. Should have been about $32, even adding in for stuff like it being the van instead of the car, starting from the airport, etc. I wish I had been able to find where the meter was running before I did, but it was buried pretty deep in the tablet in the backseat, because by the time I found it when we were halfway there, it was already past where it should have been. By the time we arrived at our hotel, we ended up paying $53.27, which was a fair bit more than what I had calculated repeatedly. I didn't want to ruin our day, and I somewhat feel they are counting on people not caring enough to have done the math, but it's still a bit sketchy in my opinion. I ended up paying cash since I wasn't about to give this company my debit card info. Either I severely misunderstood how they calculate cab fare (which is double the cost of a Lyft), or he started the meter well before we were actually in the picture and charged us for the time he was waiting to FIND a fare. Either way, we will take our chances with Lyft next time, at least they are upfront with their pricing.

A ten minute ride to the hotel was $39. I gave him $40 cash and his comment was "great tip, great tip." Rude and unprofessional. Unfortunately, I did not take down his cab number.

    Yellow Cab - Should have been $3.85 + 5(.85) for the first mile + 6(.40) x 10 for the next 10 miles... $32.10. Not $53.27.

I guess this businesses is ok with silencing their customers instead of fixing their mistakes. I do not recommend this company. We asked for help with transportation- were told it would be about 30 minutes for pick up. I asked how much it would cost and was told it was meter based with no other details. Grateful for a ride and not expecting it to be more than $60 for a 25 minute drive we decided to wait. After 40 minutes I called to see if they were still coming and was told yes about 10-15 more minutes - 20 minutes later the driver showed up so total wait time was 1 hour NOT 30 minutes. The driver made passes over a double yellow line which did not make me feel very safe and then when we did arrive the bill was $110. I told him i felt that was too high so he called his boss who offered me a discount to pay $100 (which to me is still outrageous but apparently we had to pay the meter for his 1 hr drive to pick us up with out being told that ahead of time?) the person on the phone argued with me about the timing and said we only waited 40 minutes which is not true.. I called at 12:38, 1:08 and was picked up ay 1:40, arrived at 2:01 and was billed an outrageous amount. Being out of state, here for a funeral we have a lot going on and too many emotions to argue further. The driver and I also did not speak the same language so I didn't want to take it out on him so I paid and moved on. I hope other people see this and decide to book a different way as this does not seem ethical to me. Actually, I think I will continue to post until the company decides to make it right. I have also reported this incident to the BBB

Anyways I was passed by several taxis that didn't have a fare, however after a few minutes a Tropical Taxi pulled over and offered to help out, the driver was friendly and explained not to use the hotel taxi service as they are often delayed. He took me to my destination and even gave me his card which I called when I needed to get back to the hotel and much to my surprise he picked me up in less than 5 minutes. The taxi was clean with great service, and reasonable rates. Highly recommended.

I used the only once before over a year ago. I called back and asked why he hung up on me and started yelling and I told him to stop yelling and he hung up on me. Obviously I will NEVER call them again, and I have sent a communication to the 300 apartments in my building to warn them not to call thrm and to avoid the abuse! There are enough other companies to call that one does not need to be abused. He very obviously confused me with a different customer but still no excuse!

In March 2026, after my flight had landed at Miami International Airport, I requested an Uber ride through my phone app. Unfortunately, the driver drove to another part of the airport, despite my standing at the correct spot, messaging him the name of a nearby sign, and his seeing my blue dot on his screen. Eventually, he found me. The ride took 28 minutes, and it cost $33 plus a tip. The driver did make courteous conversation, drive safely, and did not give me a low rating.

Our trips…read moremainly consisted of getting between the airport and the Biscayne Bay Marriott, as well as between the Marriott and various points in Little Haiti, Little River, and downtown. We used Uber primarily for a few reasons: 1. My wife gets $15/month + $20 extra in December in Uber credits as the primary on an American Express Platinum Card. 2. She's an Uber One member (full $120 membership cost credited by Amex). 3. We both earn Delta SkyMiles by riding with Uber. I ended up calling multiple Ubers despite not having the first two benefits listed above. Prices were reasonable with trips ranging from $16.93 to $30.95 after tip. I noticed coming from the airport, I was charged $0.66 for the "Dolphin Expressway SR836 - 17th Ave. Eastbound" (standard SunPass rate) and a $2.00 "MIA Airport Surcharge."
