The Run

The Drive Back into the Highlands

It is 152 km from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay or White Bay to Bundanoon, and we allow 2 hr 26 min behind the wheel. Down in the deep south and west of the region you're a genuine distance from Mascot — which is exactly why a fixed fare beats a meter that keeps ticking.

Nobody is at their sharpest walking out of an arrivals hall. That is the argument for having the drive already solved rather than working it out at a taxi rank with luggage and a flat phone.

Of the 54 suburbs we serve, 8 are further from Sydney than Bundanoon and 45 are closer. That puts this run in the middle of our range. The nearest comparison points are Canyonleigh at 138 km and Bullio at 145 km, so if you have been quoted for one of those you already know roughly where this sits. Within the Deep South & West zone the typical run is 140 km; yours is 12 km longer than that.

Arrivals

Meeting You at the Terminal

We watch the ship rather than the clock. That is the whole difference between a booked transfer and hoping something is waiting outside: the pickup time is derived from when you actually arrive.

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 $365, so a two-hour delay costs you nothing.

Timing

When You Will Actually Get Home

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 26 min drive to Bundanoon.

Ship DocksYou Walk Out AroundHome By

6:00am8:30am11:10am
6:30am9:30am12:10pm
7:00am10:30am1:10pm

We track the ship, so if disembarkation runs late the driver waits at no charge. The fare is $365, plus $20 before 6am, $10 after 8pm or $20 after 10pm.

An Honest Comparison

Hire Car or Transfer?

A fair question, and sometimes the right answer.

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.

Common Questions

Arriving in Bundanoon — Before You Book

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

$365 one way for one to two passengers, fixed before you travel, with tolls, fuel and GST included. The drive is 152 km and takes about 2 hr 26 min. It is the same fare in either direction.

Do you drive to Bundanoon at night?

Seven days, twenty-four hours, at the same fare. Late arrivals are a large share of what we do, because the flights that land after ten at night are exactly the ones with no other way home.

Can you fit a child seat before we land?

Yes, free of charge. Tell us the children's ages when you book and the correct restraints are installed before we arrive, so you are not assembling a capsule at the kerb after a long flight.

How long does it take to get to Bundanoon from the airport?

About 2 hr 26 min for the 152 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 Bundanoon a little after 12:11pm.

Is the fare the same going back to the Sydney cruise terminals?

Yes. $365 each way, so a return is $730. Most people arriving book the departure leg at the same time, since nothing is charged up front and there is no cancellation fee.

What if I am delayed?

We monitor your flight or ship and adjust. Waiting time and airport parking are already inside the fixed fare, so a delay does not change what you pay and we will still be there.
