How to get there from Sydney
By Car: The shortest drive from Sydney is about 860km. We'd recommend making the most of the journey by stopping overnight along the way at an NRMA Holiday Park. You can also plan your route using the my nrma app to get cheap fuel and food along the way.

Brisbane Airport is a 1 hour 30 minute flight from Sydney. From there, the theme park is a 70km drive south or two connections on public transport (about 2 hours). For timetables, or more information or to plan your journey visit TransLink or call on 13 12 30.
