What does the run home from White Bay to Mount Hunter cost?
A fixed $249 one way for one or two passengers, up to $349 for eleven in one vehicle. It is the sail-day fare plus the $10 terminal pickup fee, and any time-of-day fee.
How do you handle a pickup when the ship releases people in waves?
There is no fixed pickup time, because there is nothing reliable to fix it to. The driver is nearby from early and pulls in on your text.
Is there a meter running while we queue?
No meter and no clock. The fare was fixed before you sailed and the wait does not change it.
How far is Mount Hunter from White Bay?
About 1 hr 3 min for the 72 km from White Bay at Rozelle, and 1 hr 8 min for the 74 km from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay. The slow part is getting out of the terminal precinct rather than the motorway.
Which terminal will my ship dock at?
We meet ships at both. Rozelle is 72 km from Mount Hunter; Circular Quay is 74 km. If the paperwork is not clear, send it to us and we will work out which.
Will our luggage fit?
Tell us the bags when you book and we size the vehicle to them. On a disembarkation run the luggage usually outranks the passenger count.
Do I pay before I sail?
Nothing in advance. The fare is settled when you get home, which also means a changed itinerary costs you nothing.
Do you drop right at the address?
Yes, the address you give us is where the trip ends. Ridge properties with long driveways and views that are no help at all in the dark. Tell us which side of the road and roughly how far up.
Why not just take a taxi when we get off?
Two things a rank cannot give you: a boot chosen for cruise luggage, and a known price on a long run out of the city.
Do you have a vehicle for a group coming off a ship?
One minibus takes eleven for $349, which beats three cars from the rank on both price and on everyone leaving together.
Do you fit capsules and boosters for the drive home?
All three types, free, and installed before the vehicle leaves for the terminal.
Is there public transport from the cruise terminals?
Not with cruise luggage. White Bay has no station at all, and while Circular Quay does, reaching Mount Hunter from it means a change and then still a car at the far end.
Do you also do the sail-day run?
Both, and most people book them together. Boarding-window timing, terminal drop detail and the fare are on the Mount Hunter cruise transfers page.
We are travelling with family going to two houses — is that possible?
Several doors in the same town is an ordinary arrangement — tell us at booking and we plan the order.
Can we move the booking?
Tell us and it moves at no cost. Nothing is charged in advance, so there is no cancellation fee and nothing to refund.
How does the pickup actually start?
One text. When you are through the hall with the cases, message the number on your confirmation and the driver comes to the doors. That is the whole arrangement.
Which other localities nearby do you cover?
Theresa Park, Brownlow Hill, Glenmore, The Oaks and the rest of the district — all 75 suburbs across Wollondilly Shire, Macarthur and the Southern Highlands, each with its own published fare and its own distance from both terminals.
