It is 142 km from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay or White Bay to Burrawang, and we allow 2 hr 22 min behind the wheel. Out through the southern and eastern Highlands the roads are quieter but the distance is real, so the pickup times matter more here than almost anywhere we serve.
Coming home the pressure comes off, which is exactly when tiredness lands. The run into the Highlands is long enough that doing it yourself after a flight is a genuinely worse idea than it sounds.
Of the 54 suburbs we serve, 16 are further from Sydney than Burrawang and 37 are closer. That puts this run in the middle of our range. The nearest comparison points are Werai at 128 km and Exeter at 131 km, so if you have been quoted for one of those you already know roughly where this sits. Within the South & East Highlands zone the typical run is 128 km; yours is 14 km longer than that.
A fair question, and sometimes the right answer.

|---|---|---|
| Cost | Daily rate for the whole stay | $339 each way |

| 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 |
If you are staying a week and plan to drive around the region every day, hire a car — we would tell you that rather than take the booking. If you are here for a wedding, a weekend or a stay at one venue, a transfer in and out is usually cheaper and considerably less trouble.
Nothing about the arrival is left to chance. The ship is tracked, the driver is briefed with your name and number, and the meeting point is sent to your phone before the doors open.
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 $339, so a two-hour delay costs you nothing.
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 22 min drive to Burrawang.
| Ship Docks | You Walk Out Around | Home By |
|---|---|---|
| 6:00am | 7:30am | 10:05am |
| 6:00am | 8:30am | 11:05am |
| 6:30am | 9:30am | 12:05pm |
| 7:00am | 10:30am | 1:05pm |
We track the ship, so if disembarkation runs late the driver waits at no charge. The fare is $339, plus $20 before 6am, $10 after 8pm or $20 after 10pm.
$339 one way for one to two passengers, fixed before you travel, with tolls, fuel and GST included. The drive is 142 km and takes about 2 hr 22 min. It is the same fare in either direction.
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, and we know most of them. Drop-offs at Highlands hotels, resorts and wedding venues are routine — see our venue pages for the ones we run most often.
At the designated pick-up area at the terminal, not inside the arrivals hall. We text you the exact spot before you arrive, along with the driver's name and the vehicle.
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.
About 2 hr 22 min for the 142 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 Burrawang a little after 12:07pm.
Book before you fly and there is one less thing to solve when you land.
