There’s no better time to visit Melbourne. One of the busiest cities in Australia, this metropolitan hub is bursting at the seams with culture, great food, and an exceptional events calendar. After two years of lockdowns, closed borders, and no holidays, it certainly seems like a great time to fly across the Tasman and have a great holiday in Melbourne.
Land at Melbourne Tullamarine Airport and get excited about the days ahead. With the different areas that create the city itself: from the art adorned streets of Fitzroy and Collingwood to the ever-fashionable Chapel Street in the south, with the fun-loving playground suburb of St Kilda, the suburbs here are exciting, vibrant, and entirely different from one another.
Of course, getting around has never been easier. It’s been a long two years, so make the most of it and get around Melbourne with a Hertz rental car. Simply head to our offices once your flight lands at Melbourne Tullamarine Airport and we’ll help you get started with your rental car.
