A private transfer from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay or White Bay to Manchester Square, priced at $390 before you book. We are there when you walk out, however late you land.
One-way fare. Tolls, fuel and GST included. We track your ship — delays cost you nothing. No deposit; you pay the driver after drop-off.
A private transfer from the Sydney cruise terminals to Manchester Square in the Southern Highlands costs $390 one way for one to two passengers. The drive is 134 km and takes about 2 hr 59 min. We track your ship and wait at the designated pick-up area at the terminal, with waiting time and parking included. No deposit — you pay the driver after drop-off.
It is 134 km from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay or White Bay to Manchester Square, and we allow 2 hr 59 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.
Arriving is different from leaving. On the way out you are watching a check-in cut-off; on the way in you have already done the hard part and the only thing that matters is getting to a bed. That is easier in the back of a car than behind the wheel of one.
Of the 54 suburbs we serve, 24 are further from Sydney than Manchester Square and 29 are closer. That puts this run in the middle of our range. The nearest comparison points are Mandemar at 120 km and Moss Vale at 125 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 6 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 59 min drive to Manchester Square.
| Ship Docks | You Walk Out Around | Home By |
|---|---|---|
| 6:00am | 7:30am | 10:40am |
| 6:00am | 8:30am | 11:40am |
| 6:30am | 9:30am | 12:40pm |
| 7:00am | 10:30am | 1:40pm |
We track the ship, so if disembarkation runs late the driver waits at no charge. The fare is $390, plus $20 before 6am, $10 after 8pm or $20 after 10pm.
Your ship is monitored from departure. If it runs early we are early; if it runs three hours late we are still there, and you get a text before you land telling you exactly where to walk.
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 $390, so a two-hour delay costs you nothing.
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 | $390 |
| 3–4 passengers | People Mover | 1 check-in bag + 1 carry-on each | $420 |
| 5–6 passengers | People Mover | 1 check-in bag + 1 carry-on each | $450 |
| 7–8 passengers | People Mover or 8-Seater | 1 check-in bag + 1 carry-on each | $490 |
| 9–11 passengers | Minibus | 1 check-in bag + 1 carry-on each | $530 |
A fair question, and sometimes the right answer.
| Hire Car | Transfer | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Daily rate for the whole stay | $390 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.
$390 one way for one to two passengers, fixed before you travel, with tolls, fuel and GST included. The drive is 134 km and takes about 2 hr 59 min. It is the same fare in either direction.
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.
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. $390 each way, so a return is $780. Most people arriving book the departure leg at the same time, since nothing is charged up front and there is no cancellation fee.
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.
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.
Book before you fly and there is one less thing to solve when you land.
