Founded in Sydney in 1995, Australia In Style was born from a passion. The family’s collection of vintage and classic cars required constant care so the fabulous fleet from 1930’s to 1960’s was offered for hire. From more than 5000 weddings and special events, the joy of creating positive memories evolved.
Today we continue to celebrate life’s moments in a diversity of ways :
….From vintage cars, horse and carriages and wheelchair accessible vehicles we are driven (!) to create memorable and accessible experiences for all.
With the fleet now including wheelchair accessible vans , we have become the market leader of accessible transport and tours in Sydney.
Australia In Style is a proud recipient of international, national and state awards, ranging from creativity to customer service. The most recent being NSW Tourism Award for Excellence in Accessible Tourism.
Experiences using our adapted vehicles ensure that people with mobility challenges are able to enjoy life to the max. Local stories, sights and lifestyle of Sydney and surrounds are easily accessed with our No Steps tours. Dips in the surf at a coastal beach, getting up close and personal with Australian native animals, capturing dramatic cliffs in the Blue Mountains and meeting a national treasure of Australian Opera are now accessible to everyone.
One of our most gratifying services is to support patrons attending iconic Sydney performance spaces. More than 10,000 mobility challenged patrons annually utilise a complementary shuttle bus service to the venues and are able to enjoy the arts in Sydney.
The cornerstone of the business is supporting the mobility challenged to get to whatever event, place, sight that they choose. All our services are private and exclusive so travel is at the clients’ pace with opportunities to add personal elements.
Becoming an NDIS registered provider has extended our reach to support co-ordinators and care homes.
