Darwin Airport Private Hire Cars, Taxi and Airport Shuttle Bus

To the city you can obviously selfdrive but those folks requiring transport there are 4 main choices. (Don't try walking it and don't hitch a ride to our young clients/travellers).

Private Hire Cars - This web sites favourite mode of tranpsort would have to be the Private Hire Car.

A special recommendation to John at Darwin Private Hire. They turn up on time, load your luggage, have a friendly chat to you and treat you with that true aussie hospitality you expect from a Darwinian. To the city is $40 but worth it.Darwin Private Hire/Darwin Chauffeur
