Journey: Melbourne Airport to Albury

Albury is well known as the border city between New South Wales and Victoria. To get there from Melbourne Airport, you’ll have to cover a little over three hundred kilometres. So what’s your best transport option? Regional Victoria is connected to Melbourne Airport by a range of public transport options. Most notably, there are buses and trains.

However, as with many public transport options, they can be a little time consuming. There’s likely to be transfers from one service to another. And on top of that, you’ll probably need to make up the distance between stations and stops on foot. As a result, a public transport journey from Melbourne Airport to Albury can be a little on the longer side. Luckily, there’s an alternative: a door to door Hughes transfers!
