Sunderland is a port city in Tyne and Wear in northern England; combining a rich heritage with a booming culture, the city has a lot to offer and it’s worth visiting if you’re exploring the area. If you’re planning to get directly from Newcastle Airport to Sunderland, you can easily do so either by taking an airport taxi or by taking the metro.
Choosing an airport taxi will get you to your accommodation quickly and comfortably while you get to enjoy a private ride. It takes about 45 minutes to cover the distance and the average fare for a standard taxi from Newcastle Airport to Sunderland is about £65 (€76). If you prefer to know the exact fare in advance, you can pre-book and pre-pay for a private airport transfer with Welcome. A more budget-friendly option is to use the metro, with a single ticket at £4.30 (€5). It’s a bit slower than taking a taxi but the Green Line directly connects Newcastle Airport to Sunderland city centre, making it a good value-for-money option.
