Looking for airport transfers from Sorrento? Taxi Peninsula picks up from any address in Sorrento in a wheelchair accessible taxi with a ramp or hoist, four-point wheelchair restraints and a driver trained to help you in and out safely.
Ocean Beach Road and the foreshore around the ferry terminal are very busy in summer and on long weekends, and parking is scarce. Point Nepean Road is the only main road in and out, so expect slow traffic during holiday peaks and after events. Ferry arrivals bring a rush of passengers at once, so arrange a clear meeting point near the terminal. There is no train on the southern Peninsula. Many back-street holiday homes are hard to find at night, so add property details to your booking. Narrow side streets near the main street have limited stopping space.

What else do people ask?
What happens if my flight is delayed?
When you include your flight number in the booking, we track the flight and adjust your pick-up to the actual landing time. That way the driver is there when you come through, whether the plane is early or running late. If your flight is cancelled or diverted, call us and we will rearrange the booking.
Can you take me to Avalon Airport from the Peninsula?
Yes. We run transfers to Avalon as well as Melbourne Airport at Tullamarine, and to Moorabbin Airport and Essendon Fields for charter and private flights. Avalon is on the other side of the bay, so allow plenty of time when choosing your departure, and book early for morning flights.
Where do I meet my driver at the airport?
After you collect your luggage, follow the airport signage to the taxi and pick-up areas. Keep your phone switched on so your driver can contact you if needed. Arrangements differ between airports and terminals, so if you have any doubt, ask when you book and we will explain what to do.
We are a family of five with lots of luggage. Will we fit?
For larger families or groups, book the Maxi WAT, which seats up to six passengers and has more room than a sedan. Tell us how many suitcases, prams, car seats or sports bags you are bringing so we can confirm everything fits. If it will not, we can suggest a second vehicle.
Can I get a fixed price for my airport transfer?
The booking form shows a fare estimate before you confirm, which gives most travellers a good idea of the cost. If you need a set figure for budgeting or a business expense claim, ask us for a fixed quote when you book. We will confirm the details by SMS or email.

About 95 minutes without traffic. We add time for loading and securing your wheelchair, and for peak-hour traffic, when we plan your pick-up.
How much does it cost for airport transfers from Sorrento?
Fares depend on distance, time of day and waiting time. The booking form shows an estimate, or ask us for a fixed quote.
Can you pick me up from my home, a hospital or an aged-care home in Sorrento?
Yes. We pick up from any address — homes, hospitals, clinics, aged-care homes and day programs — and help you from the door to the vehicle.
What if my flight is late?
Add your flight number when you book. We watch the flight and move your pick-up if it lands early or late.
Can you meet me off the Queenscliff ferry in Sorrento?
Yes. Tell us roughly which sailing you are on and we will arrange a meeting point near the Sorrento ferry terminal. If the crossing is delayed, call us and we will adjust. Foot passengers with luggage, and passengers travelling in a wheelchair, can be met with a suitable vehicle.
Do you take wedding guests from Sorrento venues back to their accommodation?
We do. Book in advance with the venue name, finish time and the addresses guests need to reach. Late evenings in summer are busy, so locking in times early is wise. Our Maxi WAT can carry six seated guests plus two wheelchairs, which is useful for families or older relatives.
How far ahead should I book an airport taxi from Sorrento?
Book at least the day before, and earlier during summer and holiday periods. Sorrento is at the far end of the Peninsula, so we plan the pick-up time carefully around your flight. For arrivals, include your flight number and we will track it so the driver is there when you land.
