The Princes Freeway run, by the hour.
MEL to Geelong is around 91 km — one of the longer standard airport runs we do. Westgate Bridge is the bottleneck; off-peak it’s about 1 hour 10 minutes, peak hour 100+. Pre-booking lets us build buffer for the time of day.

How the run actually goes
From the kerb at MEL to your door at Geelong.
The four standard segments of the run. Off-peak vs peak time ranges baked into the fare.
Meet at MEL arrivals
Meet-and-greet is available on every pre-booked airport pickup: choose it when you book, add A$35 to the fare, and your driver waits inside the arrivals hall with a sign showing your name. Without it, your driver meets you at the airport's public pickup zone at no extra cost — near the Parkroyal for T1, T2 and T3, or on Level 1 at T4. Either way, the exact meet point depends on your terminal and is sent to you before pickup, with an SMS when the driver is on site.
0 min
Tullamarine Freeway → CityLink → Westgate
Down the Tullamarine Freeway onto CityLink, across the Westgate Bridge. Westgate is the variable — off-peak it’s a fast crossing, peak hour it crawls.
0 - 30 min
Princes Freeway westbound
Princes Freeway south-west from the Westgate towards Geelong. Long, fast segment off-peak. Tolls covered in the fixed fare.
30 - 62 min
Geelong arrival
Off the freeway into Geelong. Driver drops you at the kerb of your address — CBD, Geelong West, Newtown, Belmont, Bellarine.
62 - 70 min
The Melbourne corridor
The trips the train and shuttle can't quite do.
The Geelong–Melbourne run is freeway nearly the whole way, which is exactly why a fixed fare works so well — the price is set on the distance, not on how long the traffic makes it. We watch the peaks and the roadworks and build in the buffer, so a slow run never becomes a bigger bill.
Not competing with the train down the middle of the corridor — doing the door-to-door it can't, at a price fixed before you go.
The early or international flight
Door to terminal with the luggage — no V/Line change at Southern Cross, no shuttle-bus juggle with the bags.
The door-to-door city run
Home in Geelong to a specific Melbourne address, not just as far as Southern Cross station.
The late arrival home
Land at Tullamarine near midnight and still get driven all the way back to Geelong.
The group with luggage
Five people and bags on one fixed fare, not split across seats and separate services.
Two airports, one run
Tullamarine and Avalon — both directions, fixed fare.
Most Geelong travellers have a choice of airport, and we run both. A booked driver, a fixed fare set before you book, and your flight tracked so a delay never costs you the car.
Melbourne Airport
MEL · Tullamarine
Victoria's main international and domestic gateway, up the Princes Freeway and CityLink. Fixed fare set before you book, flight tracked, both directions, no pre-dawn surge.
Avalon Airport
AVV
Geelong's own airport — a short hop up the Princes Freeway, ideal for Jetstar domestic flights. A quick fixed-fare run instead of the long haul to Tullamarine, day or night.
Door to door, both terminals, both directions — with the luggage, and none of the bus-and-train juggling.
Where we drop across Geelong
Greater Geelong and the Bellarine, door to door.
Geelong is the gateway to the Bellarine Peninsula and the start of the Great Ocean Road, so we drop right across the region — CBD, waterfront, the Bellarine towns and beyond. If your flights allow it, Avalon Airport (AVV) sits far closer to Geelong than Tullamarine; we run both at fixed fares.
Geelong CBD & Waterfront
The city centre wraps around Corio Bay, with the waterfront promenade, Eastern Beach, Cunningham Pier and Westfield all close by.
Geelong West
A lively inner suburb built around Pakington Street, known for its independent cafes, restaurants, bars and boutiques.
Newtown
A leafy, historic residential suburb of grand period homes, school precincts and the Barwon River parklands.
Belmont
A busy suburb south of the Barwon River with the High Street shopping strip and easy access to the valley trails.
Ocean Grove
The Bellarine Peninsula's largest town, with a long patrolled surf beach and the sheltered Barwon River estuary.
Barwon Heads & Queenscliff
Coastal Bellarine towns — estuary beaches at Barwon Heads, and maritime heritage and Fort Queenscliff at Queenscliff.

Beyond the airport run
The gateway to the Great Ocean Road.
Geelong is where one of the world's great drives begins — a demand a Melbourne suburb simply doesn't have. We do the fixed-fare run to the coast and the Bellarine as a door-to-door day out or a one-way transfer: no hire car, no navigating, no parking.
Great Ocean Road & Surf Coast
One of the world's great drives starts just past Geelong — Torquay and the surf beaches, Bells Beach, the Aireys Inlet lighthouse, Lorne, and on to the Twelve Apostles, with a driver who knows the coast road.
The Bellarine & the waterfront
Closer in: the Bellarine Peninsula's wineries and seaside towns — Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads, Queenscliff — plus Geelong's own waterfront, the Baywalk Bollards, the National Wool Museum and Kardinia Park on a Cats game day.
Landing at Avalon or Tullamarine and heading straight for the coast? We'll quote the trip up front and drive it, there and back.
