Steer clear for Dreamworld transfers in particular.
We had adult + 2 kids travelling from Surfers Paradise and thought a “shuttle bus to Dreamworld” would be just that, a quick and easy journey….. how wrong I was!
We met at a nearby hotel, however with many many other pickups along the way (in close proximity to one another too). The time from central Surfers Paradise to dreamworld was approx 1h20min! We also stopped unknowingly at every single other park, Seaworld, Wetnwild, Paradise Country (which is a huge task getting to in itself). Movie world then finally Dreamworld.
On arrival we were told pick up time is either 3pm or 5pm. The park fully closes at 4pm so the time certainly isn’t ideal. I sure didn’t want to be waiting with kids for almost an hour for the bus to take another hour+ bus back!!
These times should be advertised likewise the length of journey.
It is quicker and $60 cheaper to go by tram/bus than to travel with ConXion!
There is no shelter from sun or rain at the pick up spot either.
We took an alternative method of travel back in the end. Ridiculous waste of money!
