1300 615 165 Often, finding the best value transport option is hard over long distances. For example, taxis might seem to offer reasonable prices over a CBD block or two. But when you have 115km to contend with, taxis simply don’t offer the value you need. Hughes is different. We approach each journey in a tailored fashion, to produce stable prices that make luxury transport accessible to everyone. You can rest assured that a Hughes transfer from Melbourne airport to Ballarat is the best value transport on offer.
Melbourne Airport to Ballarat
Melbourne airport is situated about 23km to the north-west of Melbourne’s CBD. That places it about 115km from Ballarat. As a result, travellers looking to get from Melbourne airport to Ballarat often have to look outside the conventional taxi trip to get there. Of course, there are plenty of options to get from Ballarat to Melbourne airport and vice versa. There are long-distance buses, and there are trains. However, they can take a considerable period of time. You’ll have to find your way from one bus stop to another, and wait as other passengers embark and disembark throughout the journey. There’s always hire cars, but they’re expensive. On top of that, navigating a new city can be stressful and time-consuming.
That’s why Hughes Limousines offer the best of both worlds, with our Melbourne airport to Ballarat transfers. Our pricing is on par with all alternatives. But we offer more than just pricing. We offer door to door transfers, in the comfort of a premium or luxury limousine. For excellent value, you can enjoy a comfortable and quick journey from Melbourne airport to Ballarat.
