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 23 min drive to Wildes Meadow.
| 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 $349, plus $20 before 6am, $10 after 8pm or $20 after 10pm.
It is 147 km from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay or White Bay to Wildes Meadow, and we allow 2 hr 23 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, 12 are further from Sydney than Wildes Meadow and 41 are closer. That puts this run in the middle of our range. The nearest comparison points are Fitzroy Falls at 133 km and Mount Murray at 138 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 19 km longer than that.
A fair question, and sometimes the right answer.

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.
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 $349, so a two-hour delay costs you nothing.
$349 one way for one to two passengers, fixed before you travel, with tolls, fuel and GST included. The drive is 147 km and takes about 2 hr 23 min. It is the same fare in either direction.
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.
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.
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.
Yes. $349 each way, so a return is $698. Most people arriving book the departure leg at the same time, since nothing is charged up front and there is no cancellation fee.
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.
Book before you fly and there is one less thing to solve when you land.
