Who we are:

Hi !

We are Brendan and Jo, and we're thrilled to introduce ourselves to this wonderful community.

After many years in the corporate world, we decided it was time for a change, a big one! We've relocated to the stunning Fleurieu Peninsula, right here in Goolwa. The beauty of this place captured our hearts instantly.

When we first arrived, we weren’t quite sure what our next steps would be. We knew one thing: we wanted to do something different, something meaningful.

So, we turned to you, our new community, and asked, "What does this area need the most?"

The answer was clear: PASSENGER TRANSPORT.

With that in mind, we've dedicated ourselves to offering a much needed passenger transport service for the local area.

We're committed to ensuring every ride with us is comfortable, safe, and friendly. We can't wait to meet and serve everyone in our new community.

Thank you for welcoming us, and we look forward to being a part of your journeys around this beautiful area.

Warm regards,

Brendan and Jo

Point to Point

Point-to-point pickup and drop-off service is a specialised transportation offering where clients are conveniently transported from their starting location to their desired destination. This service is tailored for those seeking a seamless, private, and efficient travel experience without the interruptions or detours common with shared rides or public transportation. Clients can expect punctuality, comfort, and a high level of professionalism. The service is designed to cater to individual needs, ensuring a direct route for a swift and smooth journey. It is ideal for business professionals, tourists, or anyone needing reliable and personal transit for appointments, meetings, airport transfers, or leisure activities.

Our Point-to-Point transport service is charged in 15-minute (or part thereof) blocks. Not by kilometer like other transportation services. The advantages of using this metering method are the simplicity and flexibility for our customers. We are incentivised to take the most efficient route. This way, we can have less impact on driving conditions, traffic conditions, and detours. It also makes budgeting very easy for our clients.

Multi-point

Multi-point caters to clients wishing to make a few trips in one stint. In this case, you would probably pay more than one of our 15-minute block rates for your driver driving you, waiting for you, or assisting you with your travel details.

For example, if you need to see a doctor, go shopping,  make a bank deposit, and pick up a parcel from the post office, we will drive you to all these places, one after the other, and wait for you while you do your business. There are no penalties or changes in rates for waiting. This makes budgeting for you much simpler and more effective. In this example, if the total trip from pickup to drop off takes 90 minutes, the cost would be six lots of 15-minute blocks.

This method is ideal for those people who don’t drive for whatever reason, who perhaps save up their errands for a once-a-week or fortnightly trip to get all tasks done in one hit.

Fixed Price

We can quote you for longer or more complex trips, for example, airport pickups, shuttle services, multi-customer transport or for a day at the wineries.

Our fixed price, all-day trip service offers an unrivaled level of convenience and predictability for those in need of extended transportation. With this service, clients can secure a luxurious and private chauffeured vehicle for the entire day or partial day at a predetermined rate, eliminating concerns about variable costs or time constraints. This offering is perfect for individuals with packed schedules, such as business executives needing to attend multiple meetings across town, tourists desiring a comprehensive and leisurely city exploration, or special event attendees requiring flexible and on-call transportation. Clients can expect the highest standards of comfort, discretion, and professionalism from our drivers and the freedom to customise their itinerary, making stops, detours, and changes as their day unfolds, all within the comfort and luxury of our vehicles.

Let us take you to your destination.
