Trains: Travel from Sydney Airport to City Centre
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Mode': AROUND
    Category: Train
    Getting TO/AROUND: The public transport train trip from Sydney Airport to the City Centre does not come cheap. Although the government built the railway tunnel from the airport to the city, a private company built only the railways stations, hence, they charge a HUGE FEE to use the railway stations at the airport. It cost about $13.00 for each ticket one way! OUCH!

    A taxi would cost about $25.00 or so.

    If you're in a group of 2 or more people, it will probably be more convenient and cheaper to get a taxi into Sydney's city centre. At least it will take you straight to your hotel/hostel door.

    If you don't want to pay a high fare, and not get a taxi, use the airport bus (red colour).

    Buses: Buses to the Eastern Suburbs
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • 'Mode': AROUND
    Category: Bus
    Getting TO/AROUND: If you are staying anywhere in one of the following areas (Eastern Suburbs):

    Maroubra
    Kingsford
    Randwick
    Clovelly
    Bondi

    ... then you may consider getting a bus if you do not want to pay for a taxi.

    There is a bus direct from the airport... it's a blue bus part of Sydney's public transport system. Bus Number 400. It departs every 20-30 minutes and there is space on the bus for your luggage too.

    The same bus operates towards the following areas too (south and inner-west):

    Rockdale
    Bexley
    Burwood.
