Blue Mountains Transfers
Heading up to the Blue Mountains, or bringing a group down? Zen Maxi Cabs runs 7, 8 and 11 seater maxi cabs between Sydney and the Blue Mountains around the clock — from the CBD, Sydney Airport, cruise terminals and hotels straight to Katoomba, Leura, Wentworth Falls and beyond. It’s a long, scenic run up the Great Western Highway, and with a fixed fare quoted before you travel, there are no meter surprises on the climb. One vehicle takes the whole group, the luggage and the day packs. Call 1300 914 511 or book online, any hour.
Day trips and tours to the Blue Mountains
Want the mountains without the driving or the timetable? Book a maxi cab for the day and see it your way — Echo Point and the Three Sisters, Scenic World, Wentworth Falls, the Leura village shops, Govetts Leap at Blackheath — with a driver who waits while you explore and takes the whole group between stops. Ideal for families, visiting relatives, overseas guests and groups who’d rather not split across cars or wait for buses. Tell us your must-sees when you book and we’ll work out a comfortable route.
Weddings, groups and corporate retreats
The Blue Mountains are wedding and retreat country, and groups are exactly what our maxi cabs are built for. We move bridal parties and guests between Sydney and mountain venues, run corporate groups up to conference and retreat centres, and handle winery and day-tour groups — up to 11 per vehicle, with multiple vehicles arranged for larger parties. Pre-booked pickups and returns mean nobody’s stranded on a mountain road after dark. Wedding transfers , event transfers and corporate transfers all run to the mountains.
