Traveling between Port Douglas and Cairns Airport doesn’t have to be a stress-filled experience. This premium private transfer service by Oasis Transport and Tours promises a smooth, friendly journey in a well-maintained van designed for comfort and ease. Whether you’re heading to catch a flight or returning home after a tropical holiday, this ride offers a practical solution that adds a touch of luxury to your travel plans.
What makes this service appealing are three things we particularly appreciate: a dedicated, friendly team committed to good customer service, complimentary child seats and a quick stop option, and the safety and convenience of a private, door-to-door transfer. That said, the cost of around $228.49 per group might be a consideration for budget travelers, especially those traveling solo or as a couple. But if you’re traveling with family or a small group, the price offers good value given the comfort and personalized attention.
This service suits travelers who value timeliness, comfort, and personalized service — especially those with children, lots of luggage, or tight schedules. It’s a particularly attractive choice for those arriving in or departing from Cairns who prefer a seamless, hassle-free transfer experience without the need to share a shuttle with strangers.

The Itinerary: More Than Just a Ride
Since this is a private transfer, there’s no fixed itinerary beyond your scheduled pick-up and drop-off points. This simplicity, however, offers several benefits. You’re not constrained by group schedules or shared timings, allowing for a more relaxed experience.
Upon arrival at Cairns Airport, the driver will assist you with your luggage and ensure you’re comfortable for your flight. If you’re departing from Cairns, the driver will coordinate your pickup to arrive on time, tracking flights to accommodate early or delayed arrivals. This level of support—plus the meet and greet service—adds a layer of reassurance, particularly for travelers unfamiliar with the area or arriving after a long flight.
The quick stop option is a thoughtful addition, giving you space to handle last-minute needs without feeling rushed or pressured.
Comfort and Service Quality
The main selling point of this transfer is quality and reliability. The company has many years of experience and a highly trained team that emphasizes customer service and friendliness. Guests have noted the personalized attention and the clean, presentable van, which makes the journey more pleasant than a typical shuttle service.
While reviews are currently not available, the detailed features and policies suggest they aim for a high standard of care. The availability of 24/7 phone support and flight tracking means you can rely on prompt assistance if needed, which is a significant advantage for travelers with unpredictable schedules.
Price and Value: Is It Worth It?
At $228.49 per group (up to 9 passengers), this private transfer might seem on the pricier side compared to shared shuttles. However, considering the level of comfort, privacy, and personal service, it can be quite good value—especially if you’re traveling with family or a small group.
You won’t need to worry about waiting for other passengers or rushing to catch a shuttle, and the inclusion of child seats without extra charges adds to the overall convenience. For travelers who prioritize stress-free, door-to-door service, the premium price reflects the tailored experience.
Who Should Consider This Service?
This transfer service is best suited for families, small groups, or travelers with lots of luggage who want a smooth, private experience. It’s ideal for those arriving late or departing early and wishing to avoid the unpredictability of shared shuttles or public transport.
It’s also perfect if you value friendly customer service, flexibility, and a hassle-free start or end to your trip. If you’re on a tight schedule or traveling with small children, the provided child seats and quick stop option are major perks.
