Arriving luggage is heavier than departing luggage. Tell us the real number when you book and the right vehicle is waiting.
| Group Size | Vehicle | Luggage Allowance | One Way |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–2 passengers | Sedan or SUV | 1 check-in bag + 1 carry-on each | $315 |
| 3–4 passengers | People Mover | 1 check-in bag + 1 carry-on each | $345 |
| 5–6 passengers | People Mover | 1 check-in bag + 1 carry-on each | $375 |
| 7–8 passengers | People Mover or 8-Seater | 1 check-in bag + 1 carry-on each | $425 |
| 9–11 passengers | Minibus | 1 check-in bag + 1 carry-on each | $455 |
We track your ship from the moment it is scheduled, so the pickup moves with you rather than against you. Before you arrive you get a text with the driver's name, the vehicle and exactly where to walk to.
The driver waits at the designated pick-up area at the terminal. We do not offer a meet-and-greet inside the terminal — we collect you kerbside at the designated pick-up point, which is quicker, and it is already in the fare. Waiting time and parking are already inside your $315, so a two-hour delay costs you nothing.
A fair question, and sometimes the right answer.
| Hire Car | Transfer | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Daily rate for the whole stay | $315 each way |
| Driving after a long flight | You, jet-lagged | Not you |
| Unfamiliar roads at night | Yes | No |
| Child seats | Hired, fitted by you | Free, fitted before we arrive |
| Parking at the other end | Your problem | Not applicable |
| Useful once you are here | Yes, if you are touring | Book each trip |
The honest test is how many days you will actually drive. Touring the region daily? Hire the car. Staying put at one address and eating and drinking there? Two transfers will cost less than the hire, the fuel and the parking combined.
It is 127 km from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay or White Bay to Bowral, and we allow 2 hr 5 min behind the wheel. You're in the heart of the Highlands, where the bulk of our early-morning international work comes from — we run this stretch of the Hume most days of the week.
The outbound trip is about not missing something. The inbound trip is about not having to think. Different problem, same fixed price, and on this leg the only thing you have to do is find the vehicle.
Of the 54 suburbs we serve, 31 are further from Sydney than Bowral and 22 are closer. That puts this run in the middle of our range. The nearest comparison points are New Berrima at 114 km and Burradoo at 117 km, so if you have been quoted for one of those you already know roughly where this sits. Within the Central Highlands zone the typical run is 113 km; yours is 14 km longer than that.
Ships usually dock early and disembark in groups over two to three hours. Tell us your disembarkation group and we time the pickup to it; these examples then add the 2 hr 5 min drive to Bowral.
| Ship Docks | You Walk Out Around | Home By |
|---|---|---|
| 6:00am | 7:30am | 9:50am |
| 6:00am | 8:30am | 10:50am |
| 6:30am | 9:30am | 11:50am |
| 7:00am | 10:30am | 12:50pm |
We track the ship, so if disembarkation runs late the driver waits at no charge. The fare is $315, plus $20 before 6am, $10 after 8pm or $20 after 10pm.
$315 one way for one to two passengers, fixed before you travel, with tolls, fuel and GST included. The drive is 127 km and takes about 2 hr 5 min. It is the same fare in either direction.

About 2 hr 5 min for the 127 km run in normal conditions, plus however long you take to clear the terminal. Landing at 9:15am you would typically be at your door in Bowral a little after 11:50am.
Up to eleven passengers in one vehicle, and every fare allows a check-in bag and a carry-on each. If you are arriving with more than that, say so when you book: extra bags are $5 each and bulky items $10 each.
Yes. $315 each way, so a return is $630. Most people arriving book the departure leg at the same time, since nothing is charged up front and there is no cancellation fee.
Ring us before the day if you can. The vehicle is allocated to the numbers you gave us, and turning up with three extra people and their bags is the one thing we cannot solve at the kerb.
Book before you fly and there is one less thing to solve when you land.
