UNSW Sydney at Kensington is one of Australia’s top research universities, with its Kensington campus, Paddington College, and Randwick clinical campuses. Just 9 km from Sydney Airport, our fixed-fare transfer is the easiest way for international students, parents, and academics to arrive. Ram’s Airport Transfers and Tours provides a reliable, fixed-fare airport transfer service across this route, 24 hours a day — with door-to-door pickup, professional drivers, and all tolls included.
From Sydney Airport, the route to UNSW runs north via Anzac Parade or Botany Road into Kensington. About 9 km and 15–22 minutes off-peak — arguably the closest major university to the airport. Semester starts in March and July see big surges, particularly for college move-in days. Read more about our service in the transfer day guide or browse our fleet options.
UNSW hosts over 30,000 international students. Many arrive jet-lagged with multiple suitcases for an entire year of study. Our drivers meet you inside Terminal 1, help with luggage, and drop at colleges (Goldstein, Basser, Philip Baxter, Shalom), or off-campus accommodation in Kensington, Kingsford, Coogee or Randwick. Book your pickup with confidence using our free quote tool, or browse our early morning & late night service for departures outside business hours.
Family move-in weekends, graduation ceremonies, and conferences fill the UNSW calendar. We coordinate hotel-then-campus transfers, group bookings for visiting families, and corporate transfers for academic delegations. SUVs and Mini Vans handle the bedding/luggage logistics with ease. For larger groups, see our group & Mini Bus service or check out the full pricing page for fare options across all vehicle sizes.
