Bus pass cheats

Few things worth knowing before you buy.

  • East Coast or National?

    Sydney to Cairns and back? The East Coast pass. Adding Adelaide, Uluru or Darwin? Go National.

  • Book trips along the way

    Pause your pass for a Whitsundays sail or Fraser 4WD, your stops don't reset.

  • Night buses save accommodation

    Sydney → Byron overnight = one fewer hostel night to pay for.

  • Book each leg ahead

    Book your next leg in the Greyhound app 24 to 48 hours out; allow longer in peak season.

  • Combine with our trips

    Our East Coast bundles already include the bus pass, so check those before buying one separately.

Book the trips, not just the transport

Bundles that already include your bus pass

Bus pass + every bed + the big adventures (K'gari, Whitsundays, the reef) in one booking, the pass is baked in, and these tours sell out first in peak season.

Before you buy a pass

Our East Coast bundles already include the bus pass.

Buying a Greyhound pass separately? Our East Coast bundles fold the pass into the tours. Compare before you commit.
