Whether you want to head straight for the Yarra River for a spot of Kayaking or would prefer to hit the city centre for a lively stroll along the Southbank, you can do so when you pick up a car rental from Melbourne Tullamarine Airport.
This quaint suburb is within easy reach of top locations with Melbourne’s Central Business District being a great place to eat, drink and explore. Top attractions within the area include the City Circle Tram 35 which will give you an extensive tour of the district as well as some of Victoria’s oldest buildings including the General Post Office, Parliament House and the Old Treasury Building.
If you’re travelling as a family, why not also head to the Docklands where you will find a bustling atmosphere and an abundance of entertainment with the Waterfront City precinct being a great place to spend the afternoon thanks to its wealth of discount shopping stores and family-friendly activities? You could even enjoy a birds-eye view of the city by hopping on the Melbourne Star Observation Wheel.
With access to four wheels how about making your way to the beautiful Alpine National Park or take an exciting drive north-east towards Australia’s capital city, Canberra? If you’re up for an adventure, hitting the Great Ocean Road is a real treat as it’s one of the most beautiful coastal stretches in the entire world. This 243 kilometre route starts at Torquay and continues through to Portland offering a host of delights along the way including the Twelve Apostles – a mesmerising display of five limestone stacks nestled off the shores of Port Campbell National Park.
Driving in Melbourne
City When touring Melbourne and beyond, always stay on the left hand side of the road unless you are overtaking traffic. Take your time to navigate unfamiliar roads and beware of traffic cameras and hook turn intersections which sometimes spring out of nowhere.
While roads such as the CityLink toll make getting around easier and link the city to travel hubs such as Melbourne Airport, it’s still advisable to leave plenty of time for your journey. Rush hour periods tend to fall from 7-9am and 5-7pm during the week with traffic also building up on a Saturday.
With regards to leaving your car, on-street parking is available, or you may prefer to use one of the designated parking buildings dotted throughout the city.
