Towns we quote personally
Our booking system doesn't price every Sunshine Coast town online. If you enter a route it can't price, such as Brisbane to Caloundra, Maroochydore or Mooloolaba, the form tells you straight away. Email info@myprivatetrips.com with your pickup, drop-off, date, time, passengers and bags, and we'll reply with a fixed quote before anything is booked.
Coming back to Brisbane
The return trip is booked the same way: your Sunshine Coast address as the pickup, Brisbane or the airport as the drop-off. Choose Return when you book to price both legs together. For a flight home, check your airline's check-in deadline and allow for the distance, 134 km from Noosa Heads to the airport by our booking system's route, plus traffic.
At the airport, vehicles collecting pre-booked passengers must hold a Brisbane Airport Ground Transport Licence and use controlled pre-booked zones (Brisbane Airport). Your confirmation gives your meeting arrangement. More fares from the airport are on Brisbane Airport private transfers.
Arriving in Noosa
Noosa National Park's Coastal Walk runs about 10.8 km return along the headlands between the Noosa Headland day-use area and Sunshine Beach, taking around four hours; the day-use area is reached by a 1 km boardwalk from Hastings Street (Queensland Parks). Shorter turnaround points include Dolphin Point and Hell's Gates. Other Sunshine Coast stays are grouped on Sunshine Coast transfers.
What's included
- A private vehicle and driver, door to door, with no shared stops.
- One fixed fare per vehicle, shown before you pay.
- Child seats by type, and notes for your driver.
- Flight number on file for airport pickups.
Seats and bags by class are on private transfer vehicles; bigger parties can read group transfers Gold Coast and Brisbane.
Planning the trip north
Most Sunshine Coast trips from Brisbane are longer drives: 119 km from Brisbane Airport to Coolum Beach and 134 km to Noosa Heads by our booking system. That has a few practical consequences.
- Arriving on a late flight. Book the transfer before you fly, with your flight number, so the vehicle is arranged for your landing rather than found on the night.
- Travelling with children. A longer trip is a good reason to have the right child seat fitted. Choose rear-facing, forward-facing or booster seats by quantity when you book.
- Luggage. Holidays on the coast often mean extra bags, beach gear or golf clubs. A sedan takes two bags; a Mercedes van takes five and up to seven passengers.
- Going home. Choose Return to book both legs at once. Allow for the distance back to the airport and your airline's check-in deadline.
