How Our Private Sawgrass Mills Transportation Works
Private transportation is designed for travelers who value privacy, schedule flexibility, and a direct trip without sharing the vehicle with unrelated passengers. Depending on the size of your party, luggage, and availability, transportation may be provided in an SUV XL, Ford Transit or similar vehicle, or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter or similar vehicle.
Pickup is available from approved hotels, residences, Airbnb properties, condominiums, and other Miami addresses. After dropping your group at Sawgrass Mills, the driver leaves the mall rather than waiting there throughout the shopping day. The driver returns later for your scheduled pickup.
Because Sawgrass Mills covers a large area, planning your stores in advance can help your group use its shopping time efficiently. The official Sawgrass Mills store directory provides information about brands, dining, and shopping areas.
Your initial return time is arranged before service and may be selected according to your group’s plans. Any later change must be requested at least 3 hours in advance and remains subject to driver and vehicle availability.
