Fixed-fare St Ives to Overseas Passenger Terminal
Sydney Fixed Fare Taxi offers a transparent, fixed-fare taxi service between St Ives (2075) and Overseas Passenger Terminal (Circular Quay). Your fare is quoted before pickup in the calculator on this page — not after a metered ride with surprise tolls and surcharges added at the end. We're the alternative to metered silver service taxis for travellers who want to know the price before they get in the car.
Why a fixed fare from St Ives matters
A trip from St Ives to Overseas Passenger Terminal on a metered taxi can land anywhere across a wide range depending on traffic, route choice, time-of-day multipliers, and tolls. With our fixed-fare service, you see one number before you book — quoted in the calculator above and locked in writing. If your driver hits unexpected traffic, that's our problem, not yours. The fare quoted is the fare charged.
What's included in your fixed fare
Your fixed fare covers the entire driver run from your pickup point in St Ives to Overseas Passenger Terminal: distance, time, tolls, the airport-rank access surcharge (where applicable), and GST. No additional charges are added at drop-off. Cancellation more than 60 minutes before pickup is free.
About the St Ives pickup
Pickups in St Ives are dispatched from our local driver network. We typically have a driver within 5-10 minutes of any address in St Ives (2075 and surrounding streets). You'll receive a text 10 minutes before pickup with the driver's name and the vehicle's plate — so you know who's arriving.
About Overseas Passenger Terminal (Circular Quay)
Overseas Passenger Terminal (Circular Quay) handles all major cruise lines departing Sydney. On embarkation day, taxis surge into the area between 11am and 2pm — pre-booking a fixed fare guarantees both a vehicle and a known price. On disembarkation day, share your scheduled disembarkation time and we'll position a driver in the taxi rank just outside the terminal so you can roll your luggage straight in.
The vehicle that arrives
Our bookings are dispatched in clean, late-model premium vehicles — typically a Lexus or Toyota sedan (Lexus ES, Camry or similar). For 3+ passengers or extra luggage we send a premium SUV (Kluger, Lexus RX or similar); for groups and cruise transfers, a Kia Carnival people mover. The specific vehicle is assigned by dispatch based on passengers, luggage and availability — we don't promise a specific year, colour or registration. The fixed fare and the standard are the promise. The driver is uniformed and ID-visible.
How payment works
There's no deposit. Once your booking is confirmed we send a secure Stripe payment link by text and email, and you pay your fixed fare in full. The price you're quoted in the calculator is the price you pay — no meter, no surge, no balance to settle on the day.
