Day Passes
A casualty of the takeover was the one day pass on the Sydney Explorer which was no longer valid. This used to allow travellers unlimited use on the Sydney and Bondi Explorer buses, it also allowed free travel on regular Sydney Buses within the blue travel zone up. Today the Explorer has a 24 or 48 hour 'hop-on, hop-off' ticket valid on the Explorer service but there are also various combination tickets available with ferries and attractions. The Sydney Explorer now stops at 34 different locations in Sydney at 15 to 20 minute intervals.

Famous quotes containing the words day and/or passes:
“I like sometimes to take rank hold on life and spend my day more as the animals do. Perhaps I have owed to this employment and to hunting, when quite young, my closest acquaintance with Nature. They early introduce us to and detain us in scenery with which otherwise, at that age, we should have little acquaintance.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I think of an author as somebody who goes into the marketplace and puts down his rug and says, “I will tell you a story,” and then he passes the hat.”
—Robertson Davies (b. 1913)
