Minibus hire with driver in Sydney
A minibus with driver is the most flexible bus for small groups in Sydney. It typically seats about 8 to 19 passengers (approximate), fits into narrower streets than a full-size coach and can stop right at the hotel door.
Typical minibus trips in Sydney: private sightseeing at the Sydney Opera House, the Harbour Bridge and Bondi Beach; business roadshows between offices, hotels and venues; family celebrations; and day trips by minibus to the Blue Mountains, the Hunter Valley and Port Stephens. A minibus is also a practical choice for airport runs from Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (SYD) when a group has a lot of luggage.
Good to know: Sydney's cruise terminals (Overseas Passenger Terminal and White Bay) mean many port transfers.
