Private Transfers to Crystal Castle, Mullumbimby
Crystal Castle and Shambhala Gardens sits in the Byron Bay hinterland near Mullumbimby. Unison Transfers provides fixed price private transfers there from Gold Coast Airport (OOL), Brisbane Airport (BNE) and Queensland addresses.
Getting There
The hinterland behind Byron is a network of narrow rural roads through cane and rainforest. It is a genuinely lovely drive and an easy one to get lost on. A private transfer means arriving at the gate rather than at a wrong turn near Mullumbimby.
Which Airport, and the Licence Rule
Ballina (BNK) is nearest, but a Ballina pickup to a Byron hinterland destination is a NSW to NSW leg and our licence does not permit it. We run the Queensland approaches: Gold Coast to Byron Bay from $174 and Brisbane to Byron Bay from $374, and the return legs back into Queensland.
Day Trips From the Coast
Crystal Castle is commonly visited as a day trip from the Gold Coast or from Byron itself rather than as an overnight stay. Day hire holds the vehicle and chauffeur while you are there, so you are not arranging a second booking to get back.
Time Zones
Between October and April, NSW observes daylight saving and Queensland does not. We quote and confirm in the time zone of your pickup point and put it in writing.
