Landing at the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay or White Bay and heading for Tahmoor? We track the ship, wait at the designated pick-up area at the terminal, and drive you the 92 km home for a fixed $275.
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 Tahmoor in the Southern Highlands costs $275 one way for one to two passengers. The drive is 92 km and takes about 1 hr 45 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.
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 $275, so a two-hour delay costs you nothing.
It is 92 km from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay or White Bay to Tahmoor, and we allow 1 hr 45 min behind the wheel. You're on the Wollondilly side of the Highlands, which is the closest corner of our service area to Sydney — the run down the Hume is short enough that a mid-morning flight doesn't need a pre-dawn start.
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.
Tahmoor is one of the closest suburbs we serve to Sydney — 2 of our 54 pickup points sit nearer the city, which is why the fare is at the lower end of our range. The nearest comparison points are Picton at 75 km and Couridjah at 82 km, so if you have been quoted for one of those you already know roughly where this sits. Within the Wollondilly corridor zone the typical run is 83 km; yours is 9 km longer than that.
Arriving luggage is heavier than departing luggage. Tell us the real number when you book and the right vehicle is waiting.

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 1 hr 45 min drive to Tahmoor.
| Ship Docks | You Walk Out Around | Home By |
|---|---|---|
| 6:00am | 7:30am | 9:30am |
| 6:00am | 8:30am | 10:30am |
| 6:30am | 9:30am | 11:30am |
| 7:00am | 10:30am | 12:30pm |
We track the ship, so if disembarkation runs late the driver waits at no charge. The fare is $275, plus $20 before 6am, $10 after 8pm or $20 after 10pm.
A fair question, and sometimes the right answer.
| Hire Car | Transfer | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Daily rate for the whole stay | $275 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 |
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.
$275 one way for one to two passengers, fixed before you travel, with tolls, fuel and GST included. The drive is 92 km and takes about 1 hr 45 min. It is the same fare in either direction.
Yes. $275 each way, so a return is $550. Most people arriving book the departure leg at the same time, since nothing is charged up front and there is no cancellation fee.
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.
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.
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.
About 1 hr 45 min for the 92 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 Tahmoor a little after 11:30am.
Book before you fly and there is one less thing to solve when you land.
