Sydney Airport to City - best way?
What is the best way to get from Sydney Airport to my hotel in the Rocks
area of the city. As there will be 2 of us with a fair bit of luggage using the bus/train not particularly suitable. A lot of counties have the 'shared minibus' type transport, often working out cheaper than a taxi. Does Sydney Airport have this? How much would a taxi be, (middle of the day)? Thanks for any help you can give |

Even a running commentary on the 'sights' if you get the right driver. Best way I think to get from airport to hotel. Richard in Toronto |

There are shuttles, but you possibly have to wait around, and then run via a circuitous route dropping off other passengers before you get to the hotel. I see one of them charges $21 per person, the taxi fare should be somewhat less than $40 to your destination. The train is another option, but you'd have a bit of a walk or another taxi from Circular Quay, depending on which hotel you stay at. The fares to/from airport stations are quite expensive.

The train from Sydney airport to City is a very good way to go! .
I have used it with one large case and carry on luggage for each of us on numerous occasions without a problem. Only time where problemn might exist is if you are doing it in peak hour. Why do you think you will have a problem? John H "RaT" wrote in message ... What is the best way to get from Sydney Airport to my hotel in the Rocks area of the city.
