Cairns Airport to Port Douglas

Wato,

Port Douglas is 66kms from the Airport, about an hours drive ..

Curious as to what would you expect to pay.
It is a glorious road trip along some pristine coastline and views and no train line

What do you want for nothing It costs more than that to go to Brisbane airport from parts of the city. We live 40 mins north of the airport and the fare is $130 ONE WAY for the car and up to 4 people.

wato35 - Here's the full list (below) of transport options for travel between Cairns airport and Pt Douglas.
There will be variations in the cost of travel depending on whether you need to be dropped off at a private address or a major accommodation location.
The cost is less if you are being delivered to a major accommodation facility.

Cheers, Ron.

Thanks to Ron and Tony for your help.

To the others, I only asked a question because I am not from the area and had no idea.
Thanks for trying to put me down. Glass half empty people.
I thought this forum was to help people explore Oz, not a bashing place.

If you have booked some accommodation at Port Douglas ring them and see what they advise.

Yep. Not cheap, if using "other" transport".

Wato,
You'll get your money's worth; the drivers of those small and large buses for that matter, that drive that Captain Cook Highway are all rally drivers to us who come from the state of no hills and straight roads.
There are what are called turnouts on the winding roads in FNQ, to let the faster drivers past and the buses are the faster drivers.
Enjoy your holiday up in FNQ and don't worry about the knockers on this forum.
Regards
