Default 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.

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.

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.

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.
