Melbourne Airport: Getting around the four terminals before you go to Yarra Valley

Melbourne Airport can be daunting for those who’ve not been before. It’s size, coupled with its numerous terminals, makes it one of the country’s largest. But there’s no need to think twice – Melbourne Airport is very well equipped to manage all the passengers who pass through each day. Part of that extends to pick and drop off, too. There are several options for collection and drop off at any of Melbourne Airport’s four terminals. Better still, you can take your pick! There are kerbside spaces, waiting spaces, short term parking, and long term parking. There are also disabled access spaces close to each terminal. So whatever your needs, Melbourne Airport, and Hughes, can assist!

Yarra Valley: Enjoy a Melbourne icon before your trip to the airport

Yarra Valley surrounds the Yarra River, not far from Melbourne. It is known as a premier wine region, with conditions that allow chardonnay, pinot noir, and sparkling wines to flourish. The cool, temperate climate combine with the abundant waters of the Yarra Valley to support healthy grapes. That’s why Yarra Valley wines are known worldwide. In fact, the first Yarra Valley vineyard was established in the first half of the nineteenth century! After that long, it’s no surprise Yarra Valley wines are so finely honed. However, the Yarra Valley covers some ground. If you want to see the most of it, you’ll need reliable transport. And with Hughes, that’s what you get! We can take you from Melbourne Airport to anywhere in the Yarra Valley – and back!
