Booking a Garden Island to Randwick Transfer

Prime Rider Shuttle is a Sydney private-hire operator. For Randwick passengers sailing from Garden Island Cruise Terminal, that means a booked vehicle at a set price, with the timing built around your boarding window rather than a guess.

Expect 25-40 min on the road in ordinary conditions. Because the terminal fills and empties in waves, we would rather collect you a little early than have you queue outside with your cases.

You will never be charged above the quoted fare, regardless of what the roads do on the day. Tolls and GST are covered and there are no booking fees.

Payment is taken on the day of travel. Cards are accepted through EFTPOS with a 1.8% surcharge, and cash or PayID carry no surcharge at all. No deposit is required and no card is held at booking.

From Booking to Kerbside

You receive an email confirmation as soon as the booking is made. Shortly before the pickup time your driver calls you directly to confirm the exact meeting point — at your Randwick address, or at the Garden Island passenger exit. There is no app to download and no SMS chain to follow.

Your driver deals with the bags at both ends. When the count is high, the sensible move is to size up to a People Mover or Mini Bus; it costs less than a second vehicle.

Booking Both Directions

Booking both directions at once is the simpler arrangement, and the promo code takes 10% off the return leg. We operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, so an early embarkation or a late berthing is routine rather than a special request.

Changes and cancellations: cancel more than 24 hours ahead at no cost. After the driver arrives, 50% of the fare is payable. Non-airport pickups allow a 10 minute wait.

About Garden Island Cruise Terminal

Your ship departs from Garden Island, Potts Point NSW 2011. As the overflow berth used when the OPT is full, it is easy to find and harder to leave on a busy morning; the Domain Tunnel then Mrs Macquaries Road is the way in, and we time the run accordingly.

Because parking is limited — shared with the Naval base, most passengers book both directions and leave the car in the driveway. It is usually cheaper than the terminal-area alternative and always simpler.

Large international vessels when the OPT is at capacity sail from here. 1 berth means the terminal fills and empties quickly — a pre-booked vehicle is simply the version of this that does not involve queueing.

About This Run

Garden Island to Randwick, in Plain Terms

Between Garden Island and Randwick, the difficulty is never the distance — it is the hour. Everybody boards inside the same window and everybody disembarks inside the same window, and the kerb reflects that.

You are quoting a vehicle, not a seat: $79 Sedan, $99 Large SUV, $129 People Mover, $169 Mini Bus, each inclusive of tolls and GST. Choose by luggage, then by passengers.

Coming home is the harder direction to time. Ships clear customs in waves, so your driver waits on your message rather than a clock, and meets you where you can actually reach.

For repeat cruisers, ask about an account. Regular sailings out of Garden Island can sit on monthly invoicing with the same driver where rostering allows.

Nothing is charged up front and no card is stored. Payment is on the day — card via EFTPOS, cash or PayID — and cancelling more than 24 hours out costs nothing.
