Transfer Options from Sydney Airport to Darling Harbour

If you are looking to take the fastest and most convenient travel method from SYD airport to Darling Harbour, then taking a Sydney airport taxi is your best option. Taxis provide a door-to-door service, in a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle, taking only 20 minutes to reach the harbour.

All Sydney taxis calculate their fares using a taximeter, therefore the overall cost of the journey from SYD airport may vary. However, in normal traffic conditions, you can expect to pay around €27.80 ($44 AUD) for your trip to Darling Harbour.
It is important to know that further elements may affect your price, such as night-rates (from 22:00 – 05:59), bringing your fare to Darling Harbour up to €34 ($54 AUD) at this rate. An additional $2.50 AUD will also be added to the final fare on Friday and Saturday nights. Moreover, you will have to pay an airport surcharge of $3.50 AUD for all taxis leaving the airport.

If you wish to travel on a fixed rate fee, with no extra charges, you can always book a private transfer company in advance.

Taxis are the most convenient travel method for those who wish to get to Darling Harbour quickly and comfortably. Although it is a more expensive option, it is certainly the best one for those travelling with children or with luggage. Moreover, if you are travelling in a group, taking a taxi and dividing the fare ends up being more cost efficient compared to the train, as the price is per vehicle and not per person.
