What to do in Melbourne

Australia's second largest city, and capital of the south eastern state of Victoria, Melbourne is a lively and beautiful city. Sports fans will be thrilled by the large amount of sporting events that take place here every year, whilst soap enthusiasts will relish the opportunity simply to have a tour around the filming locations for Neighbours!

If you're planning to cruise out of Melbourne, or simply if you fancy a bit of a posh day out, head down to Port Melbourne for beaches, bayside drinks and dining, and plenty of fascinating people-watching! Alternatively, the up-and-coming suburb of St Kilda is the perfect location for a spot of dining before hitting the bars and clubs. St Kilda also boasts some fantastic sandy, sunny beaches, so it's a great place to spend time away from the big city hustle and bustle.

Whichever way you plan to spend your time in Melbourne, however, there is more than enough to keep even the most discerning tastes happy and entertained.

Types of HolidayTaxis transfer vehicles
March 31, 2023

At HolidayTaxis, we recognize that every traveler is different and may have their own preferences and requirements for their airport transfers. To accommodate this, we offer a diverse range of transfer vehicles for our customers to choose from, each with its own set of benefits and advantages.

For example, if you're traveling in a large group, our minibus or shared airport shuttle transfers might be the best option for you, as they can comfortably accommodate a larger number of passengers and their luggage. On the other hand, if you're traveling with just one or two companions, a private car may be more suitable for you as they offer a more intimate and personalised experience.
