The airport transfer experience

From the arrivals gate to the mountains

  1. We confirm the night beforeWe text you the night before. If your flight changes, let us know before we leave and we'll simply adjust your pick-up time.
  2. Met at arrivalsYour uniformed driver helps with bags, skis and boards. Child seats are fitted and ready.
  3. A coffee or your groceries on the way upOn the Canberra run we stop for about 10 minutes at one of our favourite local cafés. Staying in self-contained accommodation? Instead of the coffee stop, we can collect your pre-ordered Woolworths click & collect groceries in Cooma on the way up. It's one stop or the other, not both.
  4. Where we drop you offJindabyne and Thredbo: at your door. Perisher, Smiggin Holes and Charlotte Pass in winter (June to October): the road ends at the Perisher Valley terminal (the Skitube building), so that's where we drop you off and collect you. The over-snow transfer, or your lodge's own transport, takes you from there to your accommodation. We can reach a few Smiggin Holes lodges by road, and we'll confirm when you book.

Lars provides the best shuttle service in town. He provided us with the best advice on which trails to follow to summit Mt. Kosciuszko. He was on time to pick us up both in the morning and in the afternoon.

Lars helped me out with transfers, suggested beautiful hikes among other fun summer activities, got me to climb Mount Kosciusko, and most importantly, organised for me to see some BRUMBIES!

Lars took our group up to Thredbo Village with a return trip back about a week later. The drive was safe and smooth in dumping conditions. A trailer was loaded up with all our gear & we had a lot of it but the trailer swallowed it all.

Snowlink came to our rescue when Virgin had multiple mechanical issues that blew our connection with our coach service. They also didn't gouge us on price.

Lars and Leanne were super helpful in sorting out what trips we needed last minute, and responded to all communication very promptly. Their prices are very reasonable, especially for service offered.

Leanne and Lars were super helpful with the organisation of our family trip from Jindabyne to the snow fields. Great communication the whole time. … It's not a matter of if, but when we come back.

Snowlink saved our holiday. We would have been stranded in Jindabyne without them as we were visiting outside peak ski season. … Punctual and reliable, clean vehicles, friendly & welcoming.

We needed to get ourselves up to Charlotte Pass to start a walk. They fitted us in on the same day… helped us get our food drop and get to the start of our walk, saving us 15 km of road walking.
