Taxis are widely available and take twenty to thirty minutes to downtown depending on traffic, though fares can add up. Ride-share services like Uber and Lyft are extremely popular and are the most commonly used option due to their convenience and competitive pricing. Car rentals are plentiful at the airport and useful if you plan to explore beyond Miami, though parking in the city can be expensive. Shared shuttles serve hotels across the metro area at moderate prices. Most visitors opt for ride-share services for their balance of convenience, cost, and flexibility."
