Active Rides

Love the idea of an active day out but hate the hassle of parking, traffic and long walks back to the car?
Active Rides by Comfort Rides is for picnics, coastal walks, exercise days and “let’s-make-a-day-of-it” catch ups – without the stress of driving, parking or being the designated driver.
We’ll get you there and back in comfort, with space for all your gear, and a driver who actually loves Sydney’s outdoors as much as you do.
What is Active Rides?
Active Rides is a dedicated Comfort Rides offering designed for:
- Picnics and day trips in spots that are hard to park at or a mission to walk back from.
- Coastal walks and hikes – get dropped off in one location and picked up at another.
- Exercise and adventure days with friends or family – train, swim, walk, explore, then relax on the way home.
- Outdoor catch ups where you want to enjoy a drink, stay present, and not worry about whose turn it is to drive.
You plan the fun. We handle the logistics.
Why people love Active Rides
Use these as feature blocks or icons on the site / flyer:
-
No parking stress
Skip the circling, the tight street spots and the expensive parking stations. We drop you close, then return at your agreed pick-up time. -
No walk back to the car
Start in one spot, finish in another. Perfect for walks like Coogee to Bondi – get dropped at Coogee, picked up at Bondi three hours later after your walk, swim, lunch and a cheeky drink. -
Bring all the gear
Eskies, picnic rugs, umbrellas, prams, sports gear – our vehicles have the space to make the day comfortable, not cramped. -
Enjoy a drink safely
Have a glass of wine with lunch or a celebratory drink at the end of your walk. No “Who’s driving?” debate, no risk, no awkward calls. -
More quality time together
You’re not splitting cars, worrying about where people parked, or chasing each other through traffic. You travel together, talk together, and make the most of your day. -
Professional. Safe. Personal.
All the trusted Comfort Rides touchpoints, simply tailored to active, outdoor days.
