What is the fare from Circular Quay to Yerranderie?
$809 for a couple, rising in fixed steps to $989 for a full minibus. Terminal pickups add a set $10 fee; there is no weekend loading.
How do you handle a pickup when the ship releases people in waves?
By message rather than by clock. That is the only arrangement that survives a disembarkation, where the release order is by tag colour and not by cabin number.
What if we are held up in customs?
No. The driver waits nearby at no charge, however long the hall takes. There is no meter on this booking and no waiting fee.
How long will we be in the car?
About 5 hr 30 min for the 305 km from White Bay at Rozelle, and 5 hr 35 min for the 307 km from the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay. The slow part is getting out of the terminal precinct rather than the motorway.
What is the difference between White Bay and Circular Quay?
Both, each with its own published fare. White Bay is at Rozelle and takes most of the shorter sailings; the Overseas Passenger Terminal is at Circular Quay and takes the larger international ships. Your cruise documents name it — from Yerranderie it is 305 km from White Bay and 307 km from the Quay.
We are coming back with more than we left with — is that a problem?
That is exactly why we ask for a case count at booking. A cruise comes home heavier than it left, and the vehicle is chosen for the boot rather than the seats.
Is a deposit required?
No. Nothing is charged at booking and no card is held. You pay the driver at your door on the day, by card, cash or PayID, with a tax invoice emailed afterwards if you want one.
Can you take us straight to our door?
Yes, the address you give us is where the trip ends. Every Yerranderie booking is a conversation rather than a form. We confirm the road, the vehicle and the timing before the day, and we will tell you if it cannot be done safely.
Can you actually drive out?
Access here is unsealed and weather-dependent, so the run is arranged in advance rather than booked blind. Talk to us about the date before you sail.
Is it worth pre-booking the trip home?
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.
What is the largest group you can meet?
One minibus takes eleven for $989, which beats three cars from the rank on both price and on everyone leaving together.
Is there a charge for child restraints?
Yes and no charge — the ages matter at booking so the right seats are already in the car.
What are the alternatives?
Realistically no. It is not the distance, it is doing it with a fortnight of luggage.
Do you do multiple drop-offs?
Within one suburb, yes, at the same price. Spread across the district we would rather quote it properly.
Is there a cancellation fee?
Tell us and it moves at no cost. Nothing is charged in advance, so there is no cancellation fee and nothing to refund.
What do we need to do on the morning?
You text, we come in. No calling ahead, no guessing, and no charge for the time before the message arrives.
Do you serve the towns for disembarkations?
Bindook, Wombeyan Caves, Nattai, Bundanoon 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.
