There are a few Uber drivers in Port Douglas and Cairns, and in 2026 we even have a few restaurants on Uber Eats. We’ll tell you about those below, but Uber is not huge in Port Douglas, as it is in other countries or in bigger cities in Australia.
As Uber drivers come and go, we can’t say with any certainty that you will always be able to find an Uber ride, but if you have the app and your payment details installed on your phone, it’s worth a try. Just don’t rely on finding an Uber.
To catch an Uber between Cairns Airport and Port Douglas will cost you between $120 and $250 Au. (approx)
For single travellers, a seat on a shuttle bus is much cheaper, you need to book that here. A seat should cost you between $60 and $70 Au.
The Uber app shows drivers in your area.
