Getting from Tampa Airport (TPA) to St. Petersburg takes about 30 min by car on an empty road (30–40 min in heavy traffic) over 33 km via I 275 EXPR. Our private transfer costs $140 for a car with 1–3 passengers or $200 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.
On arrival: The driver waits in the baggage claim on Level 1 of the Main Terminal, on the Red or Blue side used by your airline, holding a sign with your name; pickups at the curb are at the exit nearest Baggage Belt 9 (Red) or Baggage Belt 7 (Blue). If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.
Downtown St. Petersburg is about 33 km south-west of the airport, on the Pinellas peninsula. The route follows I-275 South across Old Tampa Bay on the Howard Frankland Bridge, where tolled express lanes run alongside the free lanes, then continues down the interstate through the Gateway area and exits towards downtown on I-375 or I-175. The Howard Frankland Bridge is the main link between Tampa and Pinellas County and is busy at rush hour.
Downtown St. Petersburg spreads along the waterfront parks of Tampa Bay. Beach Drive is lined with restaurants and hotels facing the bay, the St. Pete Pier reaches out into the water at the end of 2nd Avenue NE, and the Dalí Museum and the Mahaffey Theater stand at the southern end near the harbour. Central Avenue runs inland with shops and galleries, and the Gulf beaches of St. Pete Beach and Treasure Island are about 15 to 20 km further west.
Public transport instead: PSTA (Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority) bus 727 Airport Express from TPA Rental Car Facility to downtown St. Petersburg (nine stops, end of line 2nd Ave NE at Beach Drive), every 30-45 min, 7 days a week, 5 a.m. to 11 p.m..
