Sydney Public Transport Trip Planner: Train, Bus & Ferry
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed, read my most popular articles or learn more about Neerav Bhatt.
Probably my most frequently used website travelling for planning social outings or meetings for work, the Sydney Public Transport Trip planner is the best way to plan a trip on public transport in Sydney, whether by Train, Bus or Ferry or a mixture of methods.
It allows you to state exactly when you want to leave for/reach your destination and allow to/from destinations of streets, locations like shopping malls, bus stops, train stations etc.
It’s an ideal way for tourists or backpackers to plan their day trips in Sydney and for natives like myself as well.
PS the best ticket if you’re going to catch several trains/buses/ferries (pictured) is The Day Tripper, currently priced at Only $15.40 for an adult and $7.70 for a child (as at July 2006).
The DayTripper is an all-in-one day ticket that gives you unlimited travel on CityRail trains** within the Sydney suburban area, unlimited travel on Sydney Buses and Sydney Ferries*.
You can use your DayTripper at all stations on the DayTripper map as well as all Sydney Buses (they’re the blue and white ones) and almost all Sydney Ferries*.
* The DayTripper is bounded by the following CityRail stations - Cowan, Emu Plains, Richmond, Carlingford, Macarthur, Cronulla, Otford and Bondi Junction. DayTrippers cannot be used on the Sydney Explorer Bus, Bondi Explorer Bus, special event buses, Sydney Ferries Harboursights cruises and the Manly JetCat.
** Please note that DayTrippers cannot be used on the Airport Line to get on or off at Green Square, Mascot, Domestic or International stations as an access fee is required (this can be paid when you purchase your DayTripper).

Good article on transportation. I hope you can write more on informations of Australia which will help those who plan to go there including myself. But not so soon for me.

About Canberra off-peak hours for buses - AU$ 4,40. The off-peak periods are between 9am and 4.30pm, after 6pm and on weekdays, and all day on weekends and public holidays. But for that price you can jump on and off each bus you want to get. A single ticket for all zones cost you also AU$ 4,40 and you can ride in peak-hours For an unrestricted all day ticket, this will cost AU$ 8,40.
Thank you for the article))) This week I’m exactly going to Sydney for a two-week trip, that’s why it is such a good find for me)))
