Default Brisbane to Surfers Return Sameday

Hi,


I have to travel to Surfers a couple of times aweek from Brisbane CBD.
Now i have been getting the train to Nerang then the bus into Surfers. But its taking me up to five hours a day travelling time using public transport. I do not own a car, and a taxi it at least $160 one way.
Does anyone know of any shuttle bus, or private bus which you can jump on in Brisbane, takes you straight into Surfers leaving around 10am in the morning. Then leaving Surfers late at night say 11.30pm and arriving back in Brisbane that same night, well early the next day morning.


Thanks

I know the airport shuttles are darn expensive!!

Used to occasionally use them bris to Sunshine coast, about $45 one way!

Connex seem to have wiped out the competition.

Can you drive?

If you have to do this for some time, maybe it's worth investing in a cheap used car

You could consider airbnb and staying on the coast down the week and come back to Bne at weekends?

It's only a couple of days and I'd guess they're not consecutive days.
