Many thanks Kevan & Alison I have always just used a taxi. In Sydney you could use the train but with luggage and 2 of you, it would not save much and is easier. No need to pre book and don't think of using a shuttle. There is signage and you will be directed to an awaiting cab. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks Kevan & Alison Taxis in Singapore are plentiful and quite cheap. I would use taxis unless you prefer Uber in all three cities. We have used the train in Sydney, but it really depends where your hotel is in the Rocks area, as it is hilly. We stayed near Clark Quay in Singapore and it was easy to find taxis. We used the buses there too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uber hasn't operated in Singapore since 2018 as they sold their business interest there to Grab. I have that App but haven't used it for a few years. https://abackpackersworld.com/uber-in-singapore/#:~:text=exist in Singapore%3F-,Uber does not operate in Singapore.,popular option in the region. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datone Posted October 11, 2023 #6 Share Posted October 11, 2023 On 10/4/2023 at 8:20 PM, Table 6 UK said: Auckland International to the central Queen street area Depends on budget. Cheaper option could be Skydrive in Auckland. Only NZ $12.50 each if you are a senior, otherwise NZ $18.00 each. Taxi/uber if you are not worried about budget. https://www.skydrive.co.nz/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Table 6 UK Posted October 11, 2023 Author #7 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Thanks for that - looking at the map we think an UBER might be the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
