Getting around...keeping it simple

Getting around with help from Family Getaways Melbourne is fun and easy.

For most people getting in is one thing, getting about or out of Melbourne is something quite different and that goes for locals as well as our visitors.

Over the years Melbourne's public transport system has dramatically improved.

Yes, there are still some little problems to sort out but all in all getting around and transporting thousands of people all over the place on a daily basis is done with the minimum of fuss.

Having lived with the old rattler reds and the uncomfortable old green Melbourne trams, I can only say nowadays things are so much better.

If however you do need to rent your transport may I recommend Apollo Car Rentals Australia provides a wide range of quality rental cars from compact to four wheel drives at very competitive prices across nine locations within Australia. Book online and save!
