Where Can I Park my car at the Port of Sydney for my Carnival Cruise?
There is no parking available at the Port of Sydney so you will have to arrange for transfers from Sydney Airport to the Overseas Passenger Terminal.
A shuttle service is available from the airport to the cruise terminal and for 4 people, this will cost about $80 USD each way. See the tip below to compare this cost with a taxi to make the best decision.
There are several off-site parking lots with shuttles to the Sydney port – the savings can be significant. If you are arriving by car the night before your cruise, several of the hotels in the area may let you leave your car in their lot while you cruise. However, you will need to stay at least one night before your cruise – look for "Park 'n Stay" rates advertised by the hotel. These hotels usually have a shuttle to take you to and from the cruise port. (verified April 2010)
