Sydney Airport to Hotel?

Given that January is the peak of summer it is perfectly logical that it will be hot !

Yes, of course. Being from Arizona, I REALLY do understand peak summer heat. Easily 110+ degrees F most days here in July and August. Walk the dogs by 7 am or after 8pm when it's at low temps of 80 degrees F. I get it ;)

Our other trips "Down Under" have been in April or June so the weather wasn't dreadfully hot. I'm not sure, however, that folks stop to think about how hot summer temps can be.

My point was to make sure the poster who was planning to walk, with luggage, from OPT to Circular Quay in January knows exactly what to expect. He (or she) might also note there is NO shade on that walk ... the direct sun is not kind.

Back to the original question about private transport, we recently used LuxCar and they were excellent. About $65 USD using a charge card - after the conversion from $AusD. No tipping required.
