Picking up a hire car at Tullamarine airport gives you the best options for exploring Victoria and beyond on your own timeframe. Public transport can be sparse and a headache - not to mention expensive - if you’re travelling as a group or a family.

Tullamarine airport rental cars are popular because this is the closest airport to Melbourne - it also has the most international and domestic flights scheduled throughout the day. Additionally, it’s just a 20 minute drive into Melbourne CBD. This route is well sign-posted but the roads are extremely busy, particularly during rush hours. From the airport, you’ll merge onto the M2 which will take you directly into West Melbourne. From here, you can go anywhere in the city. For those staying in the south, towards St. Kilda, pick up National Route 1 or further down to Brighton.

To head south towards Tourquay and the start of the Great Ocean Road, you’ll want to pick up the M1, immediately out of the airport. If you’re off on a romantic weekend of wine tasting towards the Yarra Valley, your drive will be about an hour, depending on traffic. Avoid going into Melbourne itself and head east from on the metro ring road.

Most popular is our baby and child seats, fitted into your car when you arrive to pick up the keys. This gives you one less thing to lug through the airport and onto planes and you can drive on confidently knowing that all your passengers are safe and comfortable.

Also for your convenience, we can supply a GPS if your chosen car does not have one fitted as standard. This will help you to navigate the busy roads around Melbourne. Additionally, if you’re hiring one of our commercial vehicles, we can also supply some packing materials and moving equipment to give you peace of mind whilst you’re transporting your belongings - whether that’s across town or across the country.

There are advantages to embarking on this trip at every time of year, but the most popular is in Spring and Summer because you’ll still be able to catch the Humpback Whale migration over on the Sapphire Coast of New South Wales.
