A Miami car service is a pre-booked, professional ground transportation provider operating commercially insured vehicles with vetted, licensed chauffeurs — distinct from on-demand rideshare platforms like Uber and Lyft that use independent contractors with personal cars and surge 3.0–4.5x during Art Basel, Ultra, and Miami Grand Prix.
Detailed Drivers is Miami's premier car service, providing flat-rate transportation 24/7 across South Florida with a fleet of Executive Sedans, First Class SUVs, Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedans, and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Vans. Miami International Airport (MIA), Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), South Beach, Brickell, Coral Gables, and the Port of Miami are core service areas.
