About this tour
Reliable door-to-door minibus service connecting Cairns Airport and Port Douglas hotels. This locally-run operation handles the 1-hour journey with a meet-and-greet at arrivals, water and seasonal fruit included. Available 6am–5pm daily; outside these hours and public holidays attract extra fees. Child seats (mandatory for under-7s) can be hired for $10. Pre-book oversized gear like surfboards or bikes, and note that multiple stops or CBD pickups cost extra.

What to expect
Your driver will greet you by name at Cairns Airport arrivals (terminals 1 or 2) and escort you to the minibus. The drive to your Port Douglas hotel takes around an hour on well-maintained roads. You'll receive complimentary water and fruit during the journey. The vehicle is air-conditioned and suitable for all fitness levels. If you're travelling with infants or small children, specialised seats and prams are no problem. Note that detours to collect keys, groceries, or multiple hotel stops are possible but charged at $11 per 5-minute increment if pre-arranged.
Good to know
Book early if you need a child seat or plan to carry golf clubs, surfboards, or bikes—these incur extra charges ($11–$27.50). Transfers before 6am or after 5pm cost more. Picking up from Cairns CBD, the Esplanade, or train station instead of the airport adds $20. Check availability for public holidays.
