Alt contact for Airside Tours
 

Hi All,

Does anyone have an alternative number for the tours?

I am in Sydney at the Mecure atm and wanted to do a tour but have not had any return calls for the last few days. I have tried the office number several times to no avail.

I too am intersted.

I have endeavoured several times to contact them.

To no avail........... via phone or email.


Kind regards,

Geoff

OK, I've just popped into their offices not more than 15 minutes ago a nd they are definately open. In fact the bus is currently airside doing their Twilight Tour, and for only $68 you too can do this tour which includes champagne, prawns and an array of finger food. Tea, coffee and cake are served after the tour.

Their phone number is:
8338 8414

If they don't answer it straight away, then please leave a message and they WILL CALL YOU BACK.

Nigel,

Well done and thank you for this, I will call on Monday.

Kind regards,

Geoff

Thanks Nige,

I have actually left 3 messages and had no reply, do u know if theya re doing a tour tomorrow?

If only they had called me back I would have done the twilight tour.............

I have also re-checked, this the number I have been calling and leaving messages. I have also sent several pleasant emails, with NO response.

I thought the website said the twilights, are on alternate Friday's.

Probably wrong again.

Kind regards,

Geoff

They did say they were closed over the Christmas break but that they were now back in full swing with the tours, so I presume they'll be running tours over the weekend (although the brochure they gave me says Sundays every second weekend...school holidays might dictate otherwise?).

The brochure also says they do the twilight tours every second Friday, but according to Eyeball MkII and Ear Lobe MkIV they were definately doing one tonight.

The best I can suggest is that you try calling them in the morning and see how you go. I'll be sleeping tomorrow, so I won't be able to give any updates on their movements during the day.

I was on the twilight tour tonight... so it was definitely on tonight. They are now reopen again after the Christmas break.

The tour tonight was great! It was the first time I've done the twilight tour and definitely well worth it.

Hi Daniel,

Any idea if they are running tonight?

Still no answer to my call.........

I don't think the twilight tour is running tonight. They were saying last night that it runs about once a month now and on Saturdays instead of Fridays.

Dont ring just turn up & hassle to join a tour. I tried phone/emails nothing answered so i turned up one day & found the staff disinterested but i got on a pensioners group tour.Great tour in the end .I suppose for security reasons some prior notice of who is coming needs to be known but i tried several times to contact them but no response.

If that was an option I would danny. Unfortunately taking 2 kids under 2 removes any part of spontaneous decisions like this.

Back in Melb now, very disappointed to say the least at the complete lack of contact. Not sure if I will be back in Syd in a position to do the tour before it shuts but I would suggest that if the tour operators read this they actually listen to the messages and act on them, then ppl's hard earned $$$ might come their way.

Tarmac tour just joining tour
 

Hi guys,

I appologise for any delay in people getting back to you. Tarmac Tours shut down over Christmas and New Year. We are only just starting to get things going again.

DO NOT just show up and try to get on a tour. Saturdays and some Sundays this may be possible, however, pre booked tours like Senior groups get first refusal, also if it is a Scout group, birthday party or school group you WILL NOT be allowed on. This is because of the child protection laws, (we all have to have police checks and sign a Prohibited Employment Declaration because we are working with children).

I hope that this helps and I look forward to seeing you all some time in the future.
