Sydney Cruise Terminals to the Southern Highlands

Getting off a ship at Circular Quay or White Bay with a fortnight of luggage and a long way still to go. Every Highlands suburb has a fixed fare for that run.

The Short Answer

A private transfer from the Sydney cruise terminals to the Southern Highlands costs between $275 and $395 one way for one to two passengers, depending on the suburb. We track your ship, wait at the designated pick-up area at the terminal, and include waiting time and parking in the fixed fare. No deposit is taken.

On the Day

What Arriving Actually Looks Like

We Watch the Ship

Tracked from departure. Early, late or diverted, the pickup follows you rather than a booking time.

You Get a Text

Driver name, vehicle and the exact place to walk to, sent before you arrive so you are not hunting for it with bags.

Waiting Is Included

Immigration, baggage, a long queue at customs. None of it changes the fare, because waiting and parking are already inside it.

Seats Already Fitted

Capsules and boosters installed before we arrive. Free, and one less thing at the end of a long day.

FAQ

Arriving From the Cruise Terminals

How much is a transfer from the Sydney cruise terminals to the Southern Highlands?

Between $275 and $395 one way for one to two passengers, depending on which suburb you are heading to. Every fare includes tolls, fuel and GST, and is the same in either direction.

Do you track my arrival?

Yes. We monitor the ship and the pickup moves with it. Waiting time and parking are already in the fare, so a delay costs you nothing.

Where does the driver wait?

At the designated pick-up area at the terminal, not inside the arrivals hall. You get a text with the exact spot, the driver's name and the vehicle before you arrive.

Should I book before I travel?

Yes. There are very few vehicles available in the Highlands at short notice and almost none late at night. Booking costs nothing up front and can be cancelled without a fee, so there is no reason to leave it.

Can you fit child seats?

Free, and fitted before we arrive. Give us the ages when you book so you are not assembling a capsule at the kerb after a long flight.

How much luggage can we bring?

One check-in bag and one carry-on per passenger is included, and groups of up to eleven travel in one vehicle. Arriving luggage is usually heavier than departing luggage, so tell us the real number when you book.
